Week #28 - 07/27/2015

Nauvoo

Well, last Saturday was an amazing experience. We got the opportunity to go down to Nauvoo, a member took us 4 missionaries down there for the day, and I had the chance to do endowment for only the second time, and it was unbelievably spiritual and peaceful. I wanted to stay there the entire day, the spirit was so quiet, but so strong at the same time. The other guys wanted to check out the other Nauvoo stuff, I didn't get to stick around long. Learned some awesome facts. Did you guys know Joseph Smith was a general? His sword is hanging in the temple. The Nauvoo pagent was a little cheesy, but still really great. We really don't understand how much that man went through. Besides losing children and a family and friends to the mobs, he carried permanent injuries from being repeatedly beaten, poisoned, and tarred. And he was truly the greatest prophet we have ever had. I love how much I learned there. I only have 30 seconds left on this stupid library computer timer, so I have to go. Love you guys!
