Happy Easter!

  Heyyy Everyone!!  Happy Easter! 
.
I hope that everyone had a great day and that everyone got a chance to think about all that our Savior has done for us.    I am so thankful for Him!    I am thankful to know that He lives today and to know that He is very aware of each of us. 

I just want to say that serving a mission is the BEST thing ever!! And definitely the hardest thing ever as well. But it's so good! I am so thankful that I get to be here right now. I have learned so much about the gospel, and I can definitely say that I know that it is true. I know it, without a doubt in my mind. I know that Joseph Smith is a prophet of God. I know that He translated the Book of Mormon by the power of God. I know that you can know too! All you have to do is read the Book of Mormon and go to the source of all truth. Pray about it! You will definitely get an answer.

Just a cool thing that happened to us: The other day, we were seeing an investigator and I kept feeling like when we were done, we should just go for a walk instead of getting in our car and driving to the next place, which is kind of weird because we wouldn't normally just go and walk around. But I kept thinking of it, so we did it! The crazy part is that I knew exactly where we were going to go. We went up the street and around the corner and there was this cute family outside! We started talking to them (well, actually, they started talking to us first!) and we got them to agree to come to the Trail Center for a tour and to see this art exhibit that we have downstairs. It was awesome and I can't wait to see them again! I love getting to see how different people are prepared to hear about the Gospel. Just by talking to them, we could tell that they have had so many experiences in their lives that have been preparing them. So cool!

I have to get going, but stay tuned. I'll write about the most awkward Easter ever next week!

Love, 

Lucy

PS -So fun to get to see the Duffy family during their Spring Break!!

  2. So fun to hear your testimony. I love your story about being inspired to take a walk. Reminds me of the quote by Einstein. "Coincidence is God's way of remaining anonymous".

    Looking forward to the Easter story.
    Love you!

  3. Lucy~ What a great story about the walk and the family. You are such an amazing missionary, and I'm sure Heavenly Father loves to work through someone who is so in tune and willing to do his bidding. I love you!! `-Aunt Becky :)

  4. Lucy,
    How fun to get a visit from the Duffy family. Sounds like you are following the Spirit. You can't go wrong when you do. I am so happy to hear you are doing well. Yes, a mission is tough, but it prepares you for so many other things in life. Love to hear your stories!
