Hey everyone! Thank you so very much those who wrote me this last week! I was thankful to hear that Ella had a good christmas with her dad, and that Jon is still as techy tech as ever! haha He was able to enjoy a little facetime with blake! Know that I am praying for you to get better!!! but most importantly thanks mom for your email! Yours always give a great strength to continue onward! Your right we have the best family in the world! during my service in Brazil and New York, I have come to treasure the family that I have been blessed with! The Good brothers and sister that I have that are constantly praying for me to continue onward! I am so greatful that we all have a knowledge of the gospel and I strive "without ceasing " as alma the younger did to bring souls to the same knowledge that we have! thank you for that reminder mom! No my package has not arrived yet but it has 2 chances to arrive this week! if not this week I'll just have to wait until next week! this WEEK I humbly ask for prayers for Gil, that he will accept to be baptized, Mayram, That the plan of salvation will help receive peace for her fathers death and that she can be baptized, AND Patrick, new patrick, that he can understand the restoration! Pray that we can continualy find those who are ready to receive the gospel now.
this week was a week of rememberence. a rememberence of how much time I have left! This next week I will have 11 months on the mission! This Year has gone by in an instant! I can't believe that I only have 13 months left! I want us all to remember how time can easily pass and leave us on the side of the road! If we allow it, time can rob us of our potential, and how divine is our potential? I know that all of us are children of our Heavenly Father! Our potential to do good, to change the lives of others, and to follow the savior is as great as we will permit it to be! This year, I hope we can all grow our capacity to act in righteousness and DO as the Lord has commanded. I know our happiness will grow in the work that the has for us to do, and more importantly, we will know him! Moroni 7:48
I love you all and may you let the Lord Bless you,
Elder Bell
