Steven Letter #30

This week was one of the strangest on  my mission. The pattern of our day to day routine usually went something like this. 

We wake up and it's snowing like there's going to be five feet of snow by lunch.
We get ready for the day, the snow has stopped.
We study for an hour, it's getting warmer
By the time we leave the apartment it's all melted.

It's Utah weather. Everyone here is saying things like "This weather is awfully weird." and I'm saying things like "Hmm this is super nice weather eh?" 

I've unconscious begun saying 'eh' to people, and one member actually asked if I was  a native to Canada because I've been using it. I must admit that that was an extremely good moment for me. After that appointment I turned to my companion and said something along the lines of.

Operation report: I've infiltrated the northern state and managed to blend in perfectly with the locals. They don't suspect a thing. Wolf Cub over and out. 
By the way Wolf Cub is my code name. No I didn't pick it, my district leader did. 

I read this scripture this past week and I'd like to share with you all. 

2nd Nephi 12: 2-3
 2 And it shall come to pass in the last days, when the mountain of the Lord’s house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills, and all nations shall flow unto it.

3 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths; for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.


What I took from it was if we go to the temple we will better know the Lord's plan for us. 

I love you all, I promise to write more next week!

Elder Wolford
