This week we had General Conference! We didn't get to go watch in person but the Sister Missionaries here watched together in the chapel of the Jospeh Smith Memorial Building which was just an absolute joy. What an amazing experience listening to the words of the Lord surrounded by so many of His dedicated servants.
Something that I LOVED from Conference was the message President Nelson gave about the renovation of the Salt Lake City Temple and the strengthening of its foundation. He related it to our need of strengthening our spiritual foundations on Christ! I loved it so much because I get to serve around this temple everyday and President Nelson explained so simply that at the center of the temple is Christ!

Because the Conference Center was closed for Conference (and a majority of our time is spent there) our mission President arranged for us to all go on a hike down at Mutual Dell up the Provo Canyon and wow. It was so amazing to be out of the city and in God's creations.
Alma 30:44 says
yea, and all things denote there is a God; yea, even the earth, and all things that are upon the face of it, yea, and its motion, yea, and also all the planets which move in their regular form do witness that there is a Supreme Creator.
With this in mind, YOU are His greatest creation. His work and His glory is your immortality and eternal life! (Moses 1:39)
I love being a missionary and having so many opportunities to love and serve His creations. If there's any way I can serve you this week, let me know!
Have an absolutely STELLAR week! You are loved!
