"EXALTATION IS OUR GOAL, DISCIPLESHIP IS OUR JOURNEY" -Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Wow! what a week! GENERAL CONFERENCE IS LIKE CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) I woke up Saturday morning singing "ITS THE MOST WONDERFUL TIME OF THE YEAR!" haha which may surprise many of you because i never was a morning person! But I have repented of my irritated morning person ways and wake up at 630 every morning EXCITED TO BE ON A MISSION! 

      General Conference was INCREDIBLE (as it always is)! What was really incredible was seeing 3 new apostles being called to take their place on the stand! WOW!!!!!! I was with my mission president while we were watching it and he just kept saying "Wow....What a brother hood!" 

     I personally loved President Russel M Nelson's address about female leaders in the church! It has inspired me to be a little better! And each time I get better and repent and grow, my sphere of influence grows that much more! And when our sphere's on influence grow, we are able to share the light of Christ with MORE PEOPLE! Isn't it wonderful??? Leadership, or should i say Christ-like leadership, is never for the man or womans personal gain! It is for the service of our fellow man and  ultimately for our God! HOW COOL!

       I really need to go.....BUT i just want to say ONE MORE SUPER COOL THING! Charlene Downey! OH MY HEAVENS THAT WOMAN! hahaha Charlene was just baptized over 2 weeks ago! We have started teaching the new member lessons! We decided to make it more interesting we would have her roleplay with us....we would be people investigating the church, and she would be a full-time missionary! hahaha so we sat on her couch and I put my nametag on her, and she just WENT! SHE TAUGHT BEAUTIFULLY! She taught us where we came from! Why we were here! Why we go through hard times! and where we go when we die! And I just thougt "Holy taledo! This woman needs to serve a mission dang it!" And so i said "Charlene!What if you served a mission?????" And she said "That would be GREAT!" So we will see if this happens! But she wants to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D and ALSO! Charlene has aggreed to speak to our zonetomorrow!!!!!!!!!! And tell her conversion story! CANT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE YOU ALL!

I KNOW MILLIONS SHALL KNOW BROTHER JOSEPH SMITH AGAIN! I KNOW THAT GOD IS WAITING FOR ME AND PREPARING A MANSION ABOVE FOR ME I KNOW THAT JESUS CHRIST IS KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS! I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!
