let's talk about the weather

Hey Everyone!

This week was a great and super hectic week! So many super fun things happened!

To start. On last monday, we went to Raising Caines!!! It was my  favorite day ever. I love that place. We went with the homies (Elder Moser and Elder Jimenez) and none of them know how to save their monies and so they were al broke, but since my dad taught me well, I save my money like none other and I had plenty of money to hook the homies up. Then at Elder Lewis's request, we went to a mall there and wandered around for like 20 minutes (it was... well yeah)

On Tuesday we had a bomb lesson with a guy we are teaching Ron and he really understood the apostasy of the original Christian church and when we explained the restoration of the Gospel through the Prophet Joseph Smith, he just kinda sat there thinking about it and had some awesome questions.

On Wednesday we had a wild wild time. Elder Moser came up here after District Council and we dropped in on missionary work. We talked with all the homies, got to draw the plan of salvation with two awesome kids we are teaching, and many other things. Then Elder Moder was supposed to take a test for college on Thursday and then the college called and canceled on him and he was way sad. So we exchanged back and then like 45 mins later, we get a call back and we are exchanging again because Elder Moser can actually take the test and then we exchanged back again.

So then I spend Thursday with Elder Jimenez in Joliet (AND I GOT TO SPEAK SPANISH) (OH HOW I LOVE THAT LANGUAGE) It was awesome. we had a great time, we met with a legend named Lucia, we built a trampoline, we ate some great popsicle things and ate so much food and taught os many wonderful people.

This Saturday it snowed.

This weekend was also Stake Conference and it was aweomse. It was all centered around my favorite topic: missionary work! I had a really powerful experience throughout the whole session. It was wonderful. They just talked about the importance of sharing what we have and how utterly vital it is for us to help Heavenly Fathers children come home and keep them progressing toward their celestial home. It was honestly just fantastic to be there. This is the one and only true work. Christ's Kingdom has been established here on the earth and it is found in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The Book of Mormon is more of the word of God as revealed to his Prophets of old in the ancient americas. We have Prophets today who lead us and guide us back to our Heavenly home who point us to christ. The only way to know all these wonderful truths is to ask, and it shall be opened unto you.

As always,

Elder Tracy
