Snow has fallen!!

Well this week was pretty good! We did a whole lot of freezing! The high is usually in the 30's now, so that is pretty cold. On Saturday we woke up to the snow! It was really funny. One of my comps, Elder Thies, is from Arizona and he was excited and cold at the same time! We went and raked/shoveled/blew one of our investigators leaves for her that day. And Elder Thies couldn't stop playing in the snow, it was funny to watch! Elder Nielson finally started to admit that it is getting cold when the snow started to come. It was weird to be raking leaves in the snow, that was a first for me. It was just a light dusting that was mostly gone by Sunday morning, but it made the raking a lot harder!

Other than that the coolest things that happened this week was getting some referrals from headquarters. One of them is a part member family, and they were at church this week after we visited them! So I am excited about the family and them coming back to church or being baptized! We also have one that wanted a blessing, I think her brother contacted the church and asked us to help her, so we haven't been able to visit her face to face yet but have talked to her on the phone a couple times. It seems to be pretty promising!

The pictures this week are mostly from the snow day, but there are a couple others. One of them I was playing with the effects on my camera, and it made Elder Thies look really funny. We also got some really nice cheeses from one of them members, so there is some explanation on them! I can't wait to eat it!

Spiritual thought: This came from a talk in our sacrament meeting yesterday. "There is a difference between being worthy and having worth" I really liked that, because we should strive to be worthy, but no matter what we have done, God still loves us, and our worth doesn't change to him based on what we have done! So no matter what you do, remember that you are worth it to God, and that no one can change that, not even your own actions! He cares about you and loves you eternally!

Hope you all have an amazing week!
