I love Joseph Smith

December 10, 2018

t was a bit of a slower week here. Not a lot happened. But things will definitely pick up this week!! We did a lot of finding this week. It was super cold but super good. We found quite a few potentials! We had a poster in our car that said Light the World on it. It was from a booth that the missionaries set up at the University here this past transfer. We decided that we would try to use it this week while we were finding to try to get people's attention and make them want to talk to us. The only issue was that it was super big and we are both pretty small so we looked kinda funny. It was hard not to laugh! But people did seem a bit more interested so that was good! 
The down side of the week was that Sister Avendano got a sick so that slowed us down a bit. After a lot of day/nyquil though she is feeling a bit better. I feel like in the winter you just always have a constant cold here! 
We had our ward christmas party and that was fun!! There were some nonmembers and less-actives there so that was great. Plus it was a great supper! We got a bunch of left overs as well so that is a blessing. Sister Avendano and I eat rice and quesadilllas almost everyday so it will be good to switch things up a bit haha. Sister Avendano is a great cook though so I am super blessed! 
President Hitchcock asked that we all watch Joseph Smith: Prophet of the Restoration at the end of our days this week in preparation for zone conference. So Sister Avendano and I did it this past week! Wow did my appreciation for him grow so much. It was a good reminder to me of how much he went through so that we could have the Book of Mormon and gospel today. And not only him but all of the early saints. Their testimonies and strength just amaze me!! It makes me so grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who helped them and guided them so that we could have all that we have today! I know that Joseph Smith is a prophet of God and that he sacrificed so much for us! I am beyond grateful for this gospel and for the joy that it has brought to my life!! I am so excited to get to share it with more people this week! Love you all and I hope you have a great week as well! 

Love, Sister Godderidge
We got our christmas tree up!! This is the only christmas decor we have which is super sad but I love it still!!
