Testimony
So. This is where it all started. The Sacred Grove. Where a young boy went to find out which church was true. We are so blessed to have the gospel! I was really impressed by Elder Holland's talk in Conference about the Book of Mormon. I want to add my testimony to his, that it is true! I still remember the first time I took Moroni's challenge. I was in college before I read it all the way through. But I knew without a shadow of a doubt that it was true. And I still get that witness every time I read it.
Here is a quote from the end of Elder Holland's talk: "Brothers and sisters, God always provides safety for the soul, and with the Book of Mormon, He has again done that in our time. Remember this declaration by Jesus Himself: 'Whoso treasureth up my word, shall not be deceived'—and in the last days neither your heart nor your faith will fail you." What a beautiful promise! I'm thankful for the Book of Mormon and know it is true! It is true!
Catch up
Ok, so I've just spent over an hour trying to get these pictures how I want them and they still won't go. Oh well. Enjoy them anyway!
Greg worked in Canada all summer and took our car, so Bruce and I flew back to Rochester, New York and met him for the trip home. It was an amazing trip. We followed the path of the pioneers. Here are some pictures. I might do another blog later with more information. This one is getting a little long! We went to the Sacred Grove. It feels just like the temple!
We went to Niagra Falls. Awesome!
Another cool picture of the temple.
Our last stop, as for the pioneers was Winter Quarters. The stained glass windows on the temple were georgeous!
Well, I think that's it for my update. But I plan to be better from now on! I love you all!
