Well, this is weird. My last email/blog post and everything. This week has been really good. One of the Elders in my district his mom sent a package and said "give this to your missionary friends" and what it was was a thing of DOTS and she put a picture of Christ on it and and it said DOTS Depend On The Savior. I thought that was really cool and how true it is that we need to depend on the Savior.
Now time for a crazy story!!
So, we were out doing missionary work and all of a sudden, a HUGE windstorm started and trees started falling left and right. So we were like lets go to a member's. We tried 3 members and none of them were home. (then later we learned they were at a Halloween Party XP) and roads were just covered with trees. We tried moving some because we were told to go home early. but it was too
dangerous. So we had to take the long road home. And we had to dodge tress left and right, ninja style!! It was super crazy!!! So we ran inside when we got home and then the power went out. It was great!!!
Then, the next day, we were headed to church and the spot where we normally park a tree fell on top of the car that was parked there. The spot was open when we pulled in but we didn't take it. So therefore the tree didn't smash our car!! woot!! miracle!!
Well, everyone, the Church is true (the book is still blue) I love this Gospel so very much. I have loved my mission. and I know without a doubt that Joseph Smith is a prophet and that he did restore the Gospel of Jesus Christ. That Christ's authority is on the earth again to help us. I know God lives and Jesus is the Christ. And if we depend on him, everything is possible.
In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Enduring to the end
So we had Zone Conference. That was really good. President Choi spent a good portion of it talking about marriage. XP What a shocker, he's like obsessed... sometimes it feels like he's talking to the wrong crowd. Even at the member missionary fireside last night, he talked about it.... Well I guess if he feels impressed that's alright. ... I guess....
But hey. Life is good. The Gospel is true. It's the truest thing on this earth. Love the work. Will keep working hard!!

25 So it was with me. I had actually seen a light, and in the midst of that light I saw two Personages, and they did in reality speak to me; and though I was hated and persecuted for saying that I had seen a vision, yet it was true; and while they were persecuting me, reviling me, and speaking all manner of evil against me falsely for so saying, I was led to say in my heart: Why persecute me for telling the truth? I have actually seen a vision; and who am I that I can withstand God, or why does the world think to make me deny what I have actually seen? For I had seen a vision; I knew it, and I knew that God knew it, and I could not deny it, neither dared I do it; at least I knew that by so doing I would offend God, and come under condemnation.

Doctrine and Covenants 76:22-23
Doctrine and Covenants 76:22-23
22 And now, after the many testimonies which have been given of him, this is the testimony, last of all, which we give of him: That he lives!
23 For we saw him, even on the right hand of God; and we heard the voice bearing record that he is the Only Begotten of the Father
