August 14

August 14, 2017

I hope you all are doing okay. It was nice to hear some of your voices yesterday even though the circumstances weren't great. I wish you could've all been there and I wish I could be there with you all at this time too. BHut I guess there's a reason this all has to happen. It's really not fun at all and it's hard to be away from everyone but I'm going to try my best to press forward with faith that things will be okay. I hope that this week goes okay for you all and that you remember to turn to Heavenly Father and rely on Jesus Christ for strength. He has felt all our pain plus more and knows how to help. Also remember to help eachother, I know I can't do much but I will be praying for everyone. I know that God has a plan, and I know that we will get to see our loved ones again soon. I know that we can't change the circumstances we are in but we can have help to get through them. Rely on the powers of heaven to get through, I know I will be. Love and miss you all so much! Sending my love and prayers. Let me know if there is anything I can do.

This week we went to Winnipeg again for exchanges. I went with Sister Mendenhall. She is from Canada. They were good and I learned a lot. One of the senior couples took us out to olive garden so that was good. I have just accepted the fact that I will come home 20 pounds (or more) heavier. We also had a baptism. Just some 8 year olds in the ward. Their family has 10 kids, 11 chickens, 6 cats, and 2 dogs. They are crazy. One of our investgators committed to a baptismal date and has been coming to church. We are starting to see lots of progress in this area. I am grateful to be here. 
Thank you for the prayers you send my way. I love you all soooo much. This gospel truly is amazing. I dont know how we would all live without it. It's sad that people have to. Which is exactly why I am here. I hope to be able to change people's lives becuase this church and family truly has changed mine. Times like these are defintiely hard, But it would be a lot harder without the Savior and without this church. Families are forever. I am looking forward to the day that we will all be together again. It will come soon! I love you guys more than you know. Don't forget to come unto christ. He has felt all of this pain and he knows how we feel. That is the only thing that keeps me going sometimes but I know that it is enough! Good luck this week. Love you

Sister Godderidge
