Letter #5

Sent:	Mon 3/25/13 12:08 PM

Hi mom!!! How are you? So.... My car is sold? That's so weird. What's even weirder is that I haven't driven for like almost 2 months! Can you believe that i've been out almost 2 months!!?!? It's just crazy! I'm so glad you had a fun birthday and that you liked my gift! I was so worried that the mug might have broken so I hope it didn't. That is so awesome that you guys planted a garden!!! And it sounds like everyone is doing well! That makes me happy! And it's good to hear that you and Rich are doing something productive together. Tell him that i'm sorry I never congratulated him on getting the priesthood. That is something so important and I am proud of him for being able to get it. Tell him also that Im really grateful for all that he's done for me and thanks for making you happy :)
So this week was a bit slow but it was good! We saw lots of little miracles throughout each day and now have 5 new investigators to teach! Even though this work is hard sometimes I have really learned to appreciate the good things in life and how grateful I am to be apart of this wonderful gospel and to have the knowledge of the everlasting truthfulness of it. Serving a mission has really forced me to get out of my comfort zone and do things I wouldn't normally do and sometimes it's just SOO hard and I want to cry but it is such a growing experience and I know that a lot of the things i've learned just in these past couple weeks will help me throughout my life. It's really strengthened my testimony and I am so grateful for the opportunity I've been given to serve a mission.

I love you so much and love getting letters and e-mails from you! Tell everyone I said "Hi!!"

Love,

Sister Hall

P.S. Sister Francom's parents wanted to know if they could get your phone number and address and for you guys to meet maybe? Let me know if that's something you want to do?

P.S.S. Did you get any of the pictures I sent or did chels show you?

My Testimony

I would just like to bear my testimony that I know Heavenly Father is there. Always. No matter what. He knows each of us personally and wants us to be happy. He loves us, and cares about what is going on in our lives. He hears our prayers and knows the intent of our hearts. I know without a doubt in my mind that this is the true church and that Joseph Smith was a true prophet called by God and that through him the gospel was restored to its fullest. I know that the Book of Mormon is another Testament of Jesus Christ and that it was brought forth in these last days to bring peace, comfort, and knowledge to all those who read and apply it. I know that Thomas S. Monson is our prophet today and that he was also called by God to help lead and guide us through these hard times. I know with all my heart that the Atonement is real and that if we truly repent and come unto Christ we will be forgiven and be perfected in him. I am so grateful for the Plan of Salvation and to know that families can be together forever. I would like to thank my family for being here today and for all that they do for me and the love and support that they show me. I am so grateful to be a part of this wonderful gospel and the knowledge and understanding I have of its eternal truth. I say these things, in the name of thy son Jesus Christ, Amen.
