Departure

Lethbridge Airport


It was an early morning as we took you to the Lethbridge airport. We arrived shortly before 6 AM and got you checked in. JD, Lucy, Geoff, and Layla showed up to wish you well and show their support.


We hugged you and sent you through those doors. Once we started to drive away, a wave of emotion hit me in the car. I felt an immense sense of gratitude that you have chosen to serve a mission and are worthy to do so. I feel gratitude that the Lord has watched over you and guided you throughout your life, but in particular this past year. We are so grateful for your example, and willingness to serve. You are a dynamic personality in our family and will be missed extremely! But we couldn’t ask for a better place for you to be.

A Short One

Hey everyone!! Today's been a bit busy so I'm just going to give a little spiritual thought. Spiritual Thought  Helaman 14:31   31 He hath given unto you that ye might know good from evil, and he hath given unto you that ye might choose life or death; and ye can do good and be restored unto that which is good, or have that which is good restored unto you; or ye can do evil, and have that which is evil restored unto you.    I testify of the joy of daily restoration. Through repentance and the atonement of Jesus Christ, we can all choose to have the good restored unto us. I love my Savior, Jesus Christ. I know He loves me. And I know He loves each and every one of you. I love all of you! Peace Elder  Baker

I love reading them no matter the content hahaha the more random, the better the laugh I get. So feel free!! Anyways, my past week was great but very fullll! Lets get into it!     Tuesday we had Zone Conference which was 2 hours away. We had to wake up at 5 in the morning and ride in a jeepny. I was still somewhat sick on tuesday so that ride killed me. At Zone Con I actually felt pretty decent, which was a tender mercy 100%. We got a ride home from the APs which was so fun. They are a wild couple o' Elders haha. But I do look up to them a ton. They are studs.      Wednesday was so awesome. We were applying some of the things we l...
