Howdy Elder

Its me again!!!!!!

So a couple items of business. This week is transfers, so the next email you get from me will be either with new comp or in a new area. We will see what the lord has in store for us. haha. 

This week, was suuuuper eventful. Tuesday was zone conference, bomb. Then tuesday night i went to bariloche. BOMB. got me some goood chocolate. oh it was soooooo good. Me and elder Draut went together. I am going to go again this friday to finish up my papers and all that. Then on saturday we did service all day. I kinda got sunburnt, not bad, but for the first time in like six months. Then on sunday.......TEMPLE DEDICATION!!!!!!!!!!!! it was incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Elder Christofferson talked in Castillano and that was super cooll. Elder Zeballos talked too. Then elder eyring gave a sick talk. I will talk about that in a minute. So that was my week.

About the talk......So President Eyring gave a super good talk about not only the temple but something that had to do with our   job as missionaries and also the converts. He said talking about when we recieved our answer to find out if these things were true "What you felt was real, what you felt was true, what you felt was the Holy Spirit of Testimony". Obviously i have had a testimony all my life. But that just gave me a reassurance that what i felt was true. I still remember the day i had to pray to find out if the book of mormon was true before my mission. It was like a year before my mission. I will never forget what i felt. I didnt see an angel or nothing but i remember thinking "Keith, you know these things are true" What i felt was real, what i felt was the holy spirit of testimony bearing witness to me that the things of which i was praying about were true and i knew that. And it gave me more desires to help people find their answer and to help them identify what they feel. The mission is amazing. I couldnt ask for something more. The lord knows why i am here, and what i need to learn. I just need to be humble enough to follow the lord and learn what i need to learn. 

Love you guys. Keep choosing the right.
