Week 53

This week was amazing! The less-active work in this area is exploding!!! We are working with so many members of the ward (active and less-active) to help the members who haven't been in a while to come back to church and feel the blessings of the Sacrament!

This week we had interviews with President Christiansen! He is so wise it's not even funny! He reminds me so much of my dad! He shared some wonderful quotes with me on the Atonement. These are just the first parts of the quotes but if you look them up on google you can find the whole quote:

"Not only did Jesus come as a universal gift, He came as an individual offering."- Heber J. Grant from "Marvelous Growth"

"Christ has infinite attention to spare for each of us."- C.S. Lewis

We also had Stake Conference this weekend, and I am still in the Winchester Stake so I got to see a bunch of people from Woodstock! It was a sweet reunion! I love the people from all my wards more than I can say! It is always so sweet to see them again!

From Stake Conference, I really loved President Wright's comments on preparedness. He shared this thought that I really loved:

"The designer of the pattern sees what you can't yet see. You need to trust that the designer can see what you can't see." What amazing thoughts on faith!

Well, I am out of time! I love you all! Thank you for your thoughts, love, and prayers!

Love,

Sister Lewis
