This past week was great! On Wednesday we had a zone
conference with President and Sister Taylor. The zone conference was a
replacement for our Christmas get-together/devotional that we usually have in
December. But instead of focusing on Christmas like we typicaly do, President
Taylor changed it so that we would have our "devotional" ion January,
and instead of focusing on Christmas, we would focus on Christ! So that's
exactly what we did for zone conference. Sister Taylor showed us several Church
videos depicting the Savior, including his Atonement, and President Taylor
talked a lot about how we need to be more like Christ and how he is the perfect
example for us all. It was spiritually powerful and very moving to many of us,
including me. So much good stuff in that meeting! I committed myself to focus
on the Savior more.
Our investigator Carrie was baptized on Saturday and
confirmed yesterday at church. It is so amazing to see how far she has come in
the gospel! I really enjoyed having the honor and opportunity to baptize her.
Elder Wedel and his companion were able to make it up here for her
baptism.
The weather here is pretty awesome right now! It's been
raining A LOT the past few days, and this morning when we left our house it was
starting to snow lightly. The Wrightwood sister missionaries almost couldn't
get out of there house and driveway this morning because they've been getting
pounded with snow. The bishop of the Wrightwood ward even cancelled church
yesterday! I love the snow! Hopefully we get at least an inch or two down where
we are haha.
Have a great week everyone!
Elder Ruiz
