Institute! :D

I have come to discover that institute has been such a blessing in my life. More now, than ever because of my calling in my home ward. Because of my calling in the nursery, I am unable to attend sunday school and relief society.

Institute has been a great "replacement", you might say for those two classes I miss out on every sunday. The good thing about institute?? It's actually people closer to my own age and we have a pretty fantastic teacher :]

I have been missing out on quite a few sessions of institute, which basically takes place of the yw and ym programs in the home wards. I have been travelling a lot with the team lately and have missed at least 3 out of the last 5 :(

Once basketball is done, however, I will not only be able to attend institute...but quite possibly FHE as well! I have not been so excited to attend institute until lately and have discovered that without it and the scriptures, I may have struggled even more with all that has been going on.

The YSA are so fun to be around! And, now that they are "old enough" to join, I have been able to see Jannah, Travis, and Jack pretty much every week! (something that hasn't happened since YC this past summer...) I have been blessed with some of the most amazing friends in the entire world! <3

I am truly blessed to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I know that my Savior lives and that he loves me. I am grateful for the sealings because I have been blessed to come into a great, loving family and I love the knowledge that I have that I will be able to be with them forever!! I know the church is the true church of our Heavenly Father and his Son and that Joseph Smith was a true prophet of God. I know that President Monson is the true Prophet today. I have been so blessed and am grateful for every new day that I am able to live.
