Hello Everybody!
Conference was awesome! We got to watch it with
members which was so much fun! We also got to watch the Kirtland video that was
played in between session on Sunday. It was cool to watch the video because I
have now been to places and connect with them a little more. The video was
really cool and does a great job giving you a short history of Kirtland and
what happen here. Conference was so good I don't even know what is one
thing I could email about. I did love Elder Hollands talk in Saturday morning
session. One thing he said that I really liked is, "perfection is still pending."
I loved that so much because we aren't expected to be perfect in this life. We
are expected to try our best in what we are doing. Giving our real try to what
we are doing.
Hollands talked reminded me of something from the reading in
2 Nephi 2:6 which talks about Jesus Christ and it is only through him that we
are able to be saved. It is because of Jesus Christ that we are able to make
mistakes and still be able to return to live with Heavenly Father. It is
because of Him that we don't have to be perfect and all we have to do is try.
What great news is that!? We just need to do our best!
Okay now onto the funny stuff because I know this is
probably the only thing people actually read. So, we were out knocking on doors
and just doing the normal things. We ended up knocking on a Jehovah Witness
door. I have no idea what happened but, we somehow left her porch with a
pamphlet. It was one of the most confusing experiences of my life. Sister Boren
and I read through the pamphlet and it was so funny. Then later in the week we
knocked on this lady door, named Candy. Yes, her name was Candy. Well she
wasn't interested but, we told her we love to do service and if she ever needs
anything to call us. Well, we start on the next house. We got to the end of the
street and started to walk back to our car. Candy then calls us back and tells
us that she wants to talk to us. She then asks us a whole bunch of questions.
She was just curious on what we believe. You know we be super weird Mormons. By
the end of it she says that we need to find Jesus more and just read out of the
Bible and then tells us that she will be praying that we will be saved.
Hahahaha. People are funny. Oh, one more last thing we went and visited a less
active named Sister Long. She is a crazy old lady. This last time we were over
there she told us all about here crush on like a 25-year-old delivery man. She
told us about how he had a really cute butt and how she would flirt with him.
OH MAN! I had no idea what to say! She just kept talking about him. hahahaha
good times.
Have a great week!
Love all y'all,
Sister Barrow
