Sister Kinsey O'Dell's Mission to Canada: I Love to Serve Others! (Sep 22)

Totally becoming a pro at this whole bike riding thing in a skirt....I hope hahah. This week we got to help out in Calgary's annual food drive!! They had millions of boxes and they had the cars lined up and we would grab the bags of food from their car and put it into the boxes. It was awesome to see how much food was being donated and it was fun being able to help out with my zone!! Later that day we got to do more service! You know it's been a great day when you only had to wear a skirt for like 2 hours because the rest of the day you were busy doing service!!

We had a lesson with Thang this week and read with him in Alma 36. This is when Alma is telling his son Helaman about his conversion and repenting. Thang has had trouble trying to forgive himself from the past and when he read this story he just started to cry because it really hit home for him. The spirit was so strong in that room. I am so grateful to be serving a mission and that I am able to tell people that there is hope and they don't have to continue to live in misery. The gospel brings so much happiness and peace. I love it so much!!!

I hope you all continue to be missionary yourselves and share this amazing and true gospel! Love you all and have a great week. :)

Love,

Sister O'Dell
