COUNTDOWN

-
41 days left till I report to the MTC! ... not that I'm counting or anything (; These next few weeks are going to fly by. I couldn't be more excited, anxious, nervous, scared, or pretty much all of the above. Through studying my scriptures, I have been able to find so much peace and comfort. I am so grateful for words of our prophets and thought I'd share a few of my favorite verses.
...
ALMA 26:12
"Yea, I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of myself, but
I will boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things; yea, behold, many mighty miracles we have wrought in this land, for which we will praise his name forever"
D&C 24:7
"For thou shalt devote all thy service in Zion; and in this thou shalt have strength"
MOSIAH 4:6-8
"I say unto you, if ye have come to a knowledge of the goodness of God, and his matchless power, and his wisdom, and his patience, and his long-suffering towards the children of men; and also, the atonement which has been prepared from the foundation of the world, that thereby salvation might come to him that should put his trust in the Lord, and should be diligent in keeping his commandments, and continue in the faith even unto the end of his life, I mean the life of the mortal body-
I say, that this is the man who receive salvation, through the atonement which was prepared from the foundation of the world for all mankind, which ever were since the fall of Adam, or who are, or who ever shall be, even unto the end of the world.
And this is the means where by salvation cometh. And there is none other salvation save this which hath been spoken of; neither are there any conditions whereby man can be saved except the conditions which I have told you."

MATTHEW 18:11, 14
"For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.
Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish."

WHY A MISSION?

Having the opportunity to serve a mission has always been in the back of my mind throughout my entire life. However, the decision to actually serve was not the quickest decision I’ve ever made. I have always had the desire to serve, but I wanted to be sure that this was part of Heavenly Father’s plan for me. This past summer I was thinking about a mission a lot, more so than I ever had before. But, I still didn't feel like I had received a clear answer on whether or not I should. There had been a day when I had just finished reading my patriarchal blessing and felt I needed to continue reading where I had just left off in my scripture study that same morning. I was in Alma 13 and had come across versus 3 and 4,  “And this is the manner after which they were ordained--being called and prepared from the foundation of the world according to the foreknowledge of God”. Following reading this, another scripture popped into my mind, 3 Nephi 22:13,  “And all thy children sha...

(Kaylee's first letter home!!) HEYYY!!  I'm here!  I love it, it's so awesome! Everyone is so nice and we are all already such good friends! Well at least the 1st group of us haha. There's another group coming at 2 and then at 3! I haven't met my companion yet tho. When we got here there were ZERO missionaries! There will only be 55 of us here soon and then it'll start getting smaller as everyone starts leaving... and then it'll just be the 5 Greek missionaries left! YUPPP just 5 of us! 3 elders and 2 sisters! I met elder Hawkins when we were about to board the flight to Manchester. He's Greek speaking too! So we stuck together. They had to check our passports and that was kinda complicated... I didn't have a letter from the church but luckily he did so we just told the people we were together and they didn't ask too many more questions. and then we got our luggage and sat down to wait. So we just chilled and talked for a probably around 30 o...

Εβδομάδα 23: "Sister Gale it's Alcohol!"... WHOOPS!

Quite an eventful week over here! Officially drove on the opposite side of the road and didn't die!! SO that's a miracle in itself! 90% of the time we still ride our bikes/walk but when we visit investigators in villages farther out we get to use the new car! English mode is officially switched ON, Greek mode just kinda flickers here and there but I think all but one mini lesson was in English. We also haven't really had time for language study, since lessons actually fell through this week, so SYL (speak your language) between Sister Kruger and I has been huge because when we are eventually transferred back to Greece we'll need to be speaking Greek again!  We had a pretty noteworthy and definitely memorable experience while finding haha. So we were walking by some homes and stopped to talk to this little old Greek lady who was mopping her patio to ask if she needed any help. She didn't want our help but invited us inside the gated patio and had her Indi...
