Hello everyone well this week has been a great one Bryan got baptized! He scared us as he didn't show up until like ten min before 11 and that's when it started. Me and Elder Lor were freaking out because Pres. Clements came to it. It went really well..... such a great baptism and an awesome kid! We are now trying to work with his 13 year old sister who was supposed to get baptized with him but she backed out. I think it was really good experience for her to see her brothers baptism. He was confirmed the next day in church by the Branch Presidents son, the Branch President is white their name is President and Sister Hawton. They are a nice family. They have two boys, one is a senior and the other is a sophomore. They remind me so much of me and Hunter.....they both play sports allot and super funny! They really are just like me and Hunter! and Pres. and Sister Hawton remind me of mom and dad... its cool! but the oldest son who is a senior his name is Siah, he just got his mission call to Salt Lake City East Mission and Park City is in his mission. I was like, "hey if your in Park City I will totally take you to lunch man! it was funny and exciting!

Well we get two new missionaries on Wednesday....we haven't gotten the call to see who is training but I have a feeling like I am. It's a little weird because they are coming in a week before our actual transfer date so transfer date is really next week and so if I'm training we will be in a three some for a week until Elder Lor goes home! I will let you all know next week and we will already have had about a week to be with each other if I'm training.

We had an amazing time at the temple Thursday. It was great to go back to the temple and feel the love God has for us and the peace. Pres. Hugh says hi grandpa. We are super excited because Pres. Clements changed the rules on going to the temple. It use to be, we had switch our p day to when we go to the temple and that we could only go once every 3 months. But now we can go every transfer and it doesn't have to be our p day! So we are excited to go allot more now. He thought that as we go to the temple to seek revelation we will have more miracles and more blessing upon us! So it's awesome.

This week I have been studying about Sanctification and Grace. I read an amazing talk on grace. here is a quote I liked from the talk it says: "We understand that God is long-suffering, that change is a process, and that repentance is a pattern in our lives. When we understand grace, we understand that the blessings of Christ’s Atonement are continuous and His strength is perfect in our weakness." I hope we all view our grace from God as not that were just saved but that grace is our fuel for us to keep going on the path of life! IT REQUIRES WORK! Be thankful for the grace Christ gives to us and for the wonderful gift we get to partake of which is Christs atonement! We need to sanctify ourselves to make us holy so we can bear witness that Jesus is the Christ and our Savior! Sanctification comes through yielding ourselves to the promptings of the Holy Ghost. I would encourage you all to listen and ask God for ways to sanctify yourself. I know it works, I know revelation comes! This week I have had wonderful revelation! I will not share it because it is sacred to me..but I want to let you know that God speaks to us when we have our trials and hardships. He answers through the grace of our Savior Jesus Christ!

I hope you all have an amazing week! Seek for revelation!

Love,

Elder Crandall
