The Gospel is True!! (June 2)

 Last Monday for P-Day was probably one of my favorite P-Days. We roasted hotdogs and smores and had a bonfire and then went hiking! I love being in Cardston and having the mountains and all the land around me. It makes me appreciate and love all that Heavenly Father created for us to enjoy!
    On Wednesday was the first day of working at the visitors center! Sadly we didn't get many people that came because it was raining, but it was still such a cool experience. Even though we weren't in the temple, just being in the visitors center you could feel the spirit so strongly there. Then on Thursday we had our Zone Conference in Lethbridge with two other zones. Elder Jones was in one of those zones and I got to see him! It was awesome seeing a familiar face from back home. :) President Nicholas gave us some training which was great! He is such an amazing and loving president. I am so grateful for him and his wife who love and care for us so much. Then after our conference we went to walmart to get a few things since we don't have a walmart in Cardston. I never thought that this would happen but I didn't like being in walmart! It was too crazy and too many people haha I love my small town of Cardston. :)
    Friday we went branding again!!! We got to help round up all the cows and separate the calfs from their moms so we could brand them. This time we didn't have to wrestle them down because they have this shoot that we put them in that holds them down. Sister Gonzalez and I got to give them shots and actually brand the family logo onto them! I felt so bad burning them and giving them pain! haha and we even castrated them ourselves!!! So gross!!!! But hey, this is probably the only time we will do this, I hope! lol
    Saturday night Sister Gonzalez and I spoke at stake conference. According to everyone we did a good job! haha Since the topic was missionary work and we are missionaries we talked together! It's amazing how in-tune sister gonzalez and I are with the spirit and together! So grateful for my amazing companion and for my other companion, the Holy Ghost!
    Last night we taught Wyatt, our investigator and pretty much committed him to be baptized on June 14!! :) We have our next lesson with him on Tuesday where he is going to give us a definite answer, but he seems to want to be baptized :) I am so excited for Wyatt!! I just love sharing the gospel and seeing people come unto Christ. There is nothing better than that!!
    I hope everyone has a great week. :) I love you all!! Share the gospel any chance you get and love everyone. :)

Love,
Sister O'Dell
