"When the devil sends forth his mighty winds..."

Well this week went by WAY too quickly! We're in WEEK 4! How?! Can anyone explain this to me? Anyway here are some pictures. You may have notice I've become terrible at weekly updates. Here's the quick run through. Time is moving so quickly every moment is over before it seems to have even begun. My love for the people here and especially for my Savior grows every day at times its a little overwhelming to think about how wonderful God is. I can't think of any better way I could be spending my time I love my mission. The rain has really begun and I can't help but love it. Its all so great! If you want any specific thoughts or insights you'll have to email me requests because my brain shuts down and I can never think of what to say so here are some pictures!
This is a real pumpkin. 

The raccoon came to visit us Friday morning here's two of the 5. They were actually really cute begging for food and shelter from the rain. But of course being wild animals we didn't feed them so they just chilled on the deck.

Exchanges with Sequim! (Pronouces Squim... Washington spells things weirdly) This is me with Sister Chapple

I hope you're doing well! I know the world is in utter chaos so here's my thought for the week. Turn to the Savior. Things will be said, things will happen but if we hold fast to what we know is true (God lives, He loves us, and He will answer any prayer we say) then we'll make it through all the chaos. 

"And now, my sons, remember, remember that it is upon the rock of our Redeemer, who is Christ, the Son of God, that ye must build your foundation; that when the devil shall send forth his mighty winds, yea, his shafts in the whirlwind, yea, when all his hail and his mighty storm shall beat upon you, it shall have no power over you to drag you down to the gulf of misery and endless wo, because of the rock upon which ye are built, which is a sure foundation, a foundation whereon if men build they cannot fall." - Helaman 5:12

I know that this gospel has been restored. I know Thomas S. Monson is a prophet called of God and that He only does that which our Savior desires. I know the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints IS Jesus Christ's church once again brought back to the earth. Really nothing else matters. Whatever people want to say against this can't change the fact that its the truth. I love you all.
