4/22

This Easter week was just incredible! I studied the life of Christ each morning and what he did each day this week leading up to His Resurrection on Sunday, from Him going into Jerusalem, Cleansing the temple, Teaching, The Passover and Suffering in the Garden of Gethsemane, then His Trial, Crucifixion, and burial on Friday and then He lied in the tomb until Sunday when He was Resurrected. I feel closer to Him than I have ever been before as I studied and put my soul focus on what is so important about Jesus Christ's last week of life here on Earth. And this scripture yesterday hit me so hard, "1 Corinthians 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive." If Christ had not rised, we would not see our loved ones again, I would never see my family again. And I would die and not be reunited with my body. But He did rise! I just can't help but feel overwhelming joy to really know what it meant for Him to be resurrected! 

Saturday and Sunday were the best! It was so cool because everyone Elder Hawkins and I met was happy that it as Easter and we ended up having the coolest conversations about Christ with those we met! 

Also, last week we were driving down the road and some crazy Alaskan dropped their trailer and just kept driving! So Elder Hawkins pulled over and we got out to move the trailer to the side of the road. Well a guy named Connor hopped out of his house and came and helped us with it because he had seen it too. Well we got to talkin after he helped us. He is super cool, and he moved here with his from North Dakota and is in his early 20s. He is into tricking out cars and rebuilding them and he showed us a rat rod that he made out of a mustang! It was sweeet! Well he invited us to his bonfires that he has on Sundays and I'm super excited to go to one! 

But I have been having the most amazing time here in North Pole Alaska growing closer to Jesus Christ and making friendships. These interactions have helped me to realize who I am and who I can be!
