Elder Bullinger got to go fishing and he also had the opportunity to attend the Raleigh North Carolina Temple. He said it was an awesome week.

Dear mom,                                                                                                                                    April 6, 2015

 

I am happy to inform you that I had a great week! We did a lot of biking though. It was fun though. How was work this last week? And yes I did get the package. I loved it! But it is going to take me a few weeks to eat all of that candy. We went to the church to watch conference. It was great! I guess President Monson has alzhiemers and isn't doing too well...... That made me sad when another missionary told me that. But the Lord will prevail!!! There is a special spirit that comes from watching conference in a dedicated building.  I miss burning ditches. I smelt a fire the other day when it was super hot and 0% humidity. And I was like awe man someone is burning a ditch! That's cool that Brandy is taking the pictures for prom. Are they going to pay her to do it? How was that movie? I saw a poster for it at Walmart and was pretty bummed lol oh well! As for the shirts I guess anytime would be nice. We have a mall out here by us so I could just get them here.

So this week I was reading in the  Old Testament. I read all of the gospels accounts of the Last Supper up to the Resurrection. Then yesterday I read it again out of Matthew. I love that verse, He is not here; for He is risen. It is and was the greatest miracle of all time. The single greatest act of love that has ever happened and it was performed for me and you and all of us. I feel really special that He died and rose for me. That I may live again.    It also makes me think.  If he gave his life for me . What am I willing to give to him? That question has been on my mind all week. I thought that it was interesting how a lot of general conference was on marriage and families. Not going to lie.... It made me excited ha ha I hear missionaries say that they don't want to get married, but to be honest I look forward to finding someone I want to spend eternity with. Someone that is just as great as my mom! I love you so much mom!! I hope that you have a great week! Miss you!!! Love you!! Be safe!
