Holidays are very different from those spent
with our families at home. We try to
make Christmas a special experience for missionaries, but Easter is more about
being grateful for the resurrection and all its promises; the Easter bunny is
easy to give up. Still it can be hard to
be away from family and family traditions, so I decided to make a list of
things for which I’m grateful. I shared
part of the list with our missionaries in my weekly message and challenged them
to write a list of their own.
I am not going to repeat that list
here, but I can testify that I am extremely blessed and right now a big part of
my blessings are to be here in the mission field with our wonderful
missionaries. Hopefully as you write
them this week you can include some of the blessings for which you are
grateful, which I know includes your missionary and his service. I know that will uplift them, reassure them
they are an important part of your life and show support for the great work
they are doing here in the mission.
I am very grateful for this
opportunity to serve a mission here in Chile, with the blessing of knowing and
serving with amazing young people who have strong testimonies, the desire to
share them with others, and the ability to be worthy representatives of Jesus
Christ. Together we are working to
hasten the work of the Lord by inviting people to come unto Him. ¡Feliz Pascua! Happy Easter!
This week’s pictures are from the
zone conference we held this week for the Tupahue zones. We have the final two conferences this week so you can be
sure of the subject of next week’s pictures also;)
