In Christ Shall ALL Be Made Alive

Can you believe Easter is this Sunday?? Time just keeps flying.

Last Wednesday we got to go to mutual with the youth in our ward. We played dodge-ball! It was a blast to be with all of them and to build more relationships with them. One girl even brought her friend from school! The youth in this ward are rockin it!

On St. Patrick's Day it was Sister Goodwin's 6 month mark! What a fun day. It seems like just yesterday that that was me. It's always fun to get packages from Mom with all the goodies and fun green things too!

We continue to work with the members and come to find how many people are actively inviting their friends to things. Super awesome! It has been a very cool experience to share the new #Hallelujah (Easter) video with them and talk about the resurrection. As I continue to watch it and study about it I'm overwhelmed with gratitude for our Savior and all that He did for us.

Last night we were out tracting and found a new investigator named Chase! He is a super friendly 16 year old. He told us that his brother had a copy of the Book of Mormon too! We're super excited to meet his family. The coolest part of meeting him was sharing the Easter video with him. He talked about how it made him feel peaceful. The resurrection is truly a message of hope and peace!

On Saturday our ward had an International activity! Everyone brought food from different countries and invited their friends and neighbors to come along too. It was awesome! It was pretty amazing to try food from Hungary, Norway, China, Korea, Cambodia, Germany, Turkey, Thailand, Spain, Brazil, Louisiana (ha), the British Isles, and America - of course. Some of my favorite desserts were the homemade Turkish Delight and Baklava. Yum! We got some nonmembers there so it was a success!

Being a missionary is pretty much the coolest thing I could ever do. Heavenly Father sure loves His children. Sharing His love brings SO much joy!

Have a wonderful Easter!

Love,
Sister Winterton
