What a radiant lovely week! My heart was overwhelmed with feelings of love and the Spirit. General Conference was AMAZING. My gratitude to my Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ filled my soul! I went to bed last night with so much joy and hope in my heart it was almost unbearable. It was a much needed spiritual boost!
GENERAL CONFERENCE WAS UNFORGETTABLE.
I hope everyone watched it with open hearts and received a piece of God's love as well as something they could do better. As I was studying after conference I came across this scripture:
Alma 12
10 And therefore, he that will harden his heart, the same receiveth the lesser portion of the word; and he that will not harden his heart, to him is given the greater portion of the word, until it is given unto him to know the mysteries of God until he know them in full.
Do you have a hard heart? How can YOU open up your heart?
I know we can KNOW the mysteries of God in full when we listen to conference with an open heart.
I think it was amazing that all of the speakers spoke about the Restoration, but none of them spoke about the same thing. Divine orchestration 
HIGHLIGHTS
- The Austins, a senior missionary couple in Serbia, have been teaching us to dance! They were professors at BYU for traditional dance and so they've taught us! We have zoom calls as a mission and they've taught us a Sasa (samoan), Macedonian Dances, and more to come! Including a haka! 
- We had zone conference over zoom! We had everyone go buy an ice cream bar and we ate those together. Zone unity am I right? We connected it to our presentation, believe me, and it was great! We read the different accounts of the Restoration and learned more about Joseph Smith. It was a great treat!
-Had some great phone calls with members.
-We still sing ever night at 20:00 (:
-I made cinnamon rolls for conference! My kitchen skills are getting better 
I invite everyone to really study the accounts of the First Vision on this link:
It has blessed my life to read them and compare them to each other. Some people say--different accounts--WHAT? But have you ever told the same story to different people? I know I have and it changes a bit depending on who I tell it to, why I am telling it, and so many other factors! I know Joseph Smith was a prophet of God! I know he Restored Christ's doctrine to the Earth. I know we are lead by a living prophet-President Russell M. Nelson.
I am happy and well! It's hard being cooped up like a chicken, but it's good. The whole world knows how it feels haha. We get to go out for exercise and grocery shopping. But other than that we stay inside.
We are starting to hear sweet birds singing and see radiant beams. Spring is beautiful here(:
Thank you for the prayers!
