| A connection from home |
That's really cool that you read that scripture and had that insight this week because so did I! Elder Morse and I have been reading through the new testament and we read that this week and talked about it. That is super cool! Also Elder Morse is really happy that you enjoyed the Haikus.
It's been another week on campus that's for sure. Some ups and downs but that's life!
Thursday we had district meeting and then we had exchanges! I went with the district leader Elder Williams. We had an amazing lesson with Krystalyn. The spirit was so strong and it is so cool to see her faith growing and her questions being answered. It was one lesson I probably won't forget.
Friday we exchanged back. Not too much happened. Just a lot of contacting. We got a few potentials but no one was too interested.

| At the Temple |
Saturday was awesome! In the morning we went to the temple and walked around with Mason! Tanner drove us there (he is the ward mission leader) that was so cool! Mason thought the temple was really cool. We got to go in and sit in the waiting room. It was so peaceful. I love the temple. Then later on we went to lunch with Kyle! Do you remember Kyle? He is the guy we had a super bold lesson with about the Book of Mormon and then he said he would read the entire book in a month. The coolest part about that lesson was at the end we told him that we were only that bold with him because we love him. And he said that he could totally feel that and he loves us too. He's such a great guy. He texted us last week on my birthday and wished me happy birthday so that was super nice haha! And this week he texted us and asked if we wanted to get lunch at Blaze because that's where we met. (So cute I know haha). It was a great lunch and he told us that he is in 2 Nephi right now so it is taking him a little longer than he thought it would. I have full confidence that by the time he is done with the Book of Mormon he will know that it is true. The rest of the day was contacting and weekly planning! |
| The Cool Companions! |
Sunday was a good day. I forgot to get a new bus pass though so we swiped my card and it was expired so we had to walk 50 minutes to church. That was fun haha! I got a new bus pass though so we are all good. Mason came to church so that was good! Krystalyn was home for the weekend so she didn't get to come. But it was a good church meeting. In the YSA 2nd ward one of the speakers was Dustin Welch. Brandon Hatch's cousin! I went up to him and asked if he had any cousins in Vancouver and he said "yeah but their name isn't Welch" and I said "is it Hatch?" And he was so surprised haha! I told him that I grew up with Brandon and Sophie and that his uncle is my bishop haha! It's a small world. 
Monday and Tuesday were both tough days. Full of contacting and no one wanting to listen to us. We just need to keep a positive attitude and have faith to see miracles! I am glad I am with Elder Morse. I love that kid. We did have a good lesson with Mason yesterday though.
I love you Mom! Thank you for everything you do! You're the best. Happy Valentine's day!
Your son,
Elder Collier
