News Worthy

I found this interesting

And this sad

And this appalling

And this awful

And this annoying

And this fun

And this exciting

And this stressful

And this wonderful, and comforting, and peaceful, and perfect

I'm SO looking forward to general conference! It's such a wonderful weekend to get away from the world. I can not wait to hear what the Lord has to say to us this conference through His prophets and apostles.

No Matter What


I've decided that not matter what happens in the next 3 months that life is good! I will not fear. I will not doubt. (D&C 6:36)

Far Away

I feel so close, yet so far away. The end of the semester is in sight, but I feel like it will never end.

Called To Serve

Today in my hymns class we discussed hymns about missionary work. We talked about Called To Serve, I'll Go Where You Want Me to Go, Go Forth Faith, etc. It was such a great discussion! And it reminded me of these guys. I'm so grateful for my missionary friends, Christopher, Richard, Jonathan, Malcolm and Cade. I'm grateful for their service and example to me.

I love missionary work! I've lived in Provo my whole life, so I've never really had friends who aren't members or really had opportunities to talk to investigators. But I have had my missionary moments. And I've also been able to volunteer at the Referral Center at the MTC a few times. And I LOVE it. It's so fun to share a short message about the gospel and Christ's love with those who call in. I recommend taking an hour one Sunday or Tuesday evening and doing it. You won't regret it. You can go here to find out more information about it.

I'm grateful for missionary opportunities in my own life. And for the examples of missionary work all around me. I hope that we can all look for more missionary work to do even in Provo.

March Madness!

I love March Madness! I'm so excited. I don't watch too many of the games. But I watch what I can. I think it's so fun to fill out the brackets! Here's the 2009 bracket. And here's a printable version of it, so you can print out your own! And Go Utes!

sunshine

I wore flip flops today! I can't wait for summer!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

For a brief history of St. Patrick's Day go here! Apparently some cities even make their rivers green.
