Hello Family and Friends,
For those who didn't make it to the end of my last email, I would love for everyone to send me one of their current favorite scriptures from the Book of Mormon. Thank you for everyone who did send them in! Much appreciated.
Well I'm starting to love Wyoming, or I should say Wyoming in the summer. It's getting warm, but we keep on walking. We are currently teaching 4 investigators, which keeps us busy. The ward here is super helpful and ready to do missionary work. I appreciate their love and support daily.
This week, we were teaching a girl, and we asked her to read Ether 12. Recently, I've changed the way I mark my scriptures to make it less cluttered and more minimalistic. Anyways, it really helps point out the main idea (I'll add a picture at the end). The girl we were teaching wasn't super confident in her understanding of the scriptures, but the second she saw my copy, she knew that the scripture was about faith. Faith is the first step and continues to be a part of every step afterwards. The great thing is, with each step it grows stronger. In church, we discussed the song "Have I Done Any Good..." With every step I take and every act of service, I literally feel my faith building and my smile showing. The work is great. Wyoming is the place for me, as of now... not too sure about winter. But it's a good thing I'm getting my bearings now because the mission is still hard, and it won't be easier when the wind chill is -52. Can't wait!
Much Love
Elder Bodine
