My 4th was great. We spent a good deal of it with some members in our ward. We played games and stuff and they BBQ-ed for us. I got the package. Those mint chocolate marshmallows were so good and I was just about to go by some sunglasses. Thank you, that was great.
Things went pretty good this week. We started teaching a new couple (Josh and Mandy) in the YSA ward. The just moved here. Mandy is less-active and Josh is going to do whatever it takes to make Mandy's mom happy (join the church) so that's good motivation. They are fully involved in church, FHE, and institute plus a lesson with us so its going great.
Mike, another investigator, came to an activity where we had a cook-off. We had to make something with pineapple. We made a huge fruit bowl that looked like flowers and then others made fruit pizza and cupcakes and other stuff. It was a lot of fun and he loved it so that is a huge plus.
Satan really puts anyone who tries to live the gospel more fully through the ringer. He will do what ever it takes to keep them from freedom. But CHRIST IS STRONGER. It is amazing to feel the freedom that the Atonement brings just after a struggle to change something in your life that was holding you back. And it is so amazing to see it in other people. I love living this gospel. I know that the Savior lives and loves each one of us.
I love you.
Love,
Elder Hurst
