To my wonderful family!
I am totally laughing right now because I keep thinking about my title last week and how I attempted to try Spanish but I totally did it wrong! Oops! That is probably why many Spanish speaking people are not interested when I try my best to speak the little Spanish that I know and share "Me encanta El Libro De Mormon!" As I am e-mailing right now the cast for Law and Order are "camping out" in the basement of the Church and it is so neat that the church does it to be of service. There is so much talk about proposition 8 and we hear so little but from what we are informed the chruch is obviously getting attacked:( Many of the people in the basement right now may be against proposition 8 but because of being in the building where we worship they may have the desire to know our stance and why we believe what we believe. I am grateful for the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman and that it is what Heavenly Father wants for his children. Although I can not speak for all, The Church Of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints has much love for those who choose otherwise but wants them to recognize the power of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and because he died for us we can overcome anything! I know the Atonement is true and because of Jesus Christ we are never alone! Ever! What a blessing! As for the protesting that took place last Wednesday night in front of the New York temple... it comfirms my testimony once again because as we read in the Bible, Christ's church will be prosecuted for what they believe. Isn't that so true!? Although I am somewhat "far" away from home during this Holiday season I feel like I am home sweet home because of all of the places, people, and things I see that remind me of each of you! I love it so much and in reality I don't feel far from home at all! To name a few: -I live and came out with Sister Johanson who is like Maria in every way possible! Musically inclined, educated, etc. -I have 2 ladies in my Ward named Zaneeta and Marydee and they are totally like Tiffany. Zaneeta looks like her and Marydee has the same personality:) -The Elders attempt to tease me just like Troy, Vince, Ammon, and Pete! -My companion is Grandma Swim, Aunt Kim, and Auntie combined! She talks to random strangers;) Has everything in her bag and I could ask for anything! and last but not least forgets where we are and what we are doing! (The list goes on!) I am loving every moment and looking forward to Thanksgiving(President made it our P-day!), finding others to share the gospel with, and last but not least learning everything Heavenly Father wants me to!:) I love you all so much and hope you are having a fabulous day!
Love you always,
Sister Miller
