My companion is great, he knows a lot about the gospel, he
knows a lot of scriptures which has come in handy as we have been teaching some
progressive investigators. I am already staring to feel the love the savior has
for me and i am developing a great love for him as well. The days kinda seem
like eons, but it's okay. we just sit in a classroom for about 12 hours a day.
so it's really boring, but i have gotten to know the scriptures a lot better
already. We had the opportunity to attend the temple this morning, it was a
great session and i loved it. Last night there was a big devotional and it was
really good. Sarah Woodmansee actually said the closing prayer for it! i have
seen a lot of people i know actually. I've seen Matt Daines, Sarah Woodmansee,
Ryan Listen, Brea Stokes, and i haven't seen him yet, but i guess Garrett Alton
is here too. so it has been really good see people i know. We got to watch a
Joseph Smith movie last night after all the meetings were over. I really felt
the spirit and i got so emotional when at the end it played the hymn
"Praise to the Man". it really strengthened my testimony about the prophet
Joseph Smith. i know he was a true prophet and he was the prophet of the
restoration. i feel it so strong in my heart that i just want to share it with
everyone. i know the savior died for me to help me return to god through the
power of the atonement. Just after lunch today we gave all the sisters in our
district blessings, that was a really neat experience. the first couple days
here were hard and all i could think about was how long 2 years is going to be,
how much is going to change during that time. it is hard to think about, even
now, but i know i am doing what i should be doing and i know i will be blessed
if i serve diligently. i know my redeemer lives, i know he is there for
everyone and he wants them to feel of his love.
Love Elder Scherer
