Hello Everyone!
I hope you're all doing swell and getting excited for Thanksgiving! I
forced myself to think about some things I was thankful for this last
week. I wish I didn't have to be reminded by a national holiday to be
thankful, but I guess it's a good opportunity! I think out of the many
blessings I have, I'm most grateful for my family and for my testimony
of Jesus Christ. As President Uchtdorf said, "this personal testimony
of the gospel and the Church is the most important thing you can earn
in this life" (Receiving a Testimony of Light and Truth;

I'm grateful that I have one, and that it can still grow, and that I
can trust in it when I doubt and when I have trials.
This week we stayed very busy and had another Zone Conference in
Sedona. It answered a lot of the questions I have been having. And I
scored on a free flu shot from Walgreens! Also, Aabrey and Valerie got
baptized! I don't have pictures yet...but they are awesome girls. It
was a good step for their parents in coming back. We've been
struggling to find new people lately and had a lot of our prospects
fall through. But one family we found is super Golden! Dan and Shannon
are the parents, and Karlin is the oldest son. Not only are they
extremely open, but have already seen the blessings of the Gospel in
their family as they have started praying together. We are excited for
them!
Well I don't know what else to say for this week. We are doing the
work and work is changing us. I'm humbled everyday and brought to my
knees. I'm learning to trust in my Savior Jesus Christ, do my best,
and as Elder Wirthlin said, "leave the rest to Him."
I love each of you! Keep being solid!
Elder Collin Christensen
