I'm grateful to be a Mormon!

This week has been pretty good! Although this next week is all supposed to be up in the 90s. I'm not ready for that. It's already been pretty hot down here. Super weird because everywhere else still has snow. 
We met a couple of really cool people this week. One guy we were just out visiting a house trying to find someone else. His name is Gino. We knocked on his door and out came a huge Hispanic around the side of the house. It was around 9 at night and pretty late. He was really cool though. He asked who we were and we said Mormons and he kind of took a couple steps back. "Wow man you guys like worship sheep and stuff". I kind of laughed and told him that wasn't what we did. We told him we believe in Jesus Christ and then we became his best friend. He kind of told us about his upbringing. He said he had felt a lot of weight in his life due to sins. We explained how he could get those sins taken away from Jesus Christ's atonement. He grew up Christian and still didn't know that. He literally was mind blown about how that could happen. I'm excited to see him this week and start teaching him. 

It's crazy that even the most basic beliefs in our church can bring so much happiness. I'm so grateful for the knowledge we have. Even the smallest and simple truths. I know that this church is true. And so now that I know, I'm trying to share that with as many people as I can. I found truth and happiness in this church and so it's only fair to share it with others! I'm grateful to be a Mormon!
