The work has been okay, we're just waiting on some people and letting them use their agency! It's hard, but necessary haha!
This Sunday, we had the opportunity to teach Gospel Principles in the Boise 13th ward and got to help out in a youth Sunday School in the Hidden Springs ward! We talked about service and sharing our beliefs about eternal families and homosexuality. Both were so fun!! I think the core of the both was simply this: God gives us commandments to make us happy and healthy. Just look at the Word of Wisdom. We know the harmful effects of alcohol and tobacco. It's the same with the Law of Chastity and service. We might not understand everything right now, and we're all given crazy trials (and we don't even remember the life before this to help us out!), but God gives us these guidelines and asks us to have faith. He knows us perfectly, and He knows our full potential. I've seen in my own life the blessings that come from obedience to His commandments. And that's all we do as missionaries and members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints - we invite others to taste the sweetness of the gospel and find true, lasting happiness.
Love you all! Have a great week!
