...but we just met you

A great tradition was started by Sister Turk, a good-bye video for the departing missionaries.  I have to say this was a little harder than expected.  How can you love 16 missionaries so much after only 6 weeks?  I guess the answer is simple, we knew them before we came. 


How? You may ask:  The Gospel of Jesus Christ teaches the simple doctrine, that we are all brothers and sisters, literally children of our Heavenly Father.  We lived together with him in our pre-earth life, as spirit children.  We were taught his perfect plan, and we accepted this plan before we came to the earth. In the scriptures God's plan is called the plan of happiness, the plan of redemption, a merciful plan, and the plan of salvation.  This plan is what our missionaries teach, inviting people in every country throughout the world to "come unto Christ."

Our final testimony meeting
Last night was a special evening.  After a great dinner we heard a brief talk by President Marler and then each missionary shared their testimony of Jesus Christ and His Church.  We had a wonderful time together.
