November Updates and first Dec one.

DEC 5th 

This week was good got a little more snow but it keeps melting a little. Ahhhhh.  The week was good.  We got to go on exchanges with Elder Dilworth and man he is a good missionary wow! Also the Christmas initiative # lighttheworld is so good we showed to lots and because of it we are finding lots of people to teach its wonderful.

 I want to start a quote of the week thing and the one for this week is form elder Herrera who is one of the funniest people I have ever met. He does this thing where if you do something he says " Thats a party foul" ie:  I hit him with a snow ball... " thats a major party foul!" hahahh so funny. 

Also we got to teach a gal who is dating a member and it was such a good lesson the spirit was undeniable.   In fact later Elder Herrera said if I denied that id go to hell. not sure if thats true but he is kinda right you really ought not to deny what the spirit prompts you to do or not do. .

my ponderize scripture is Matthew 5:13-14  

  ¶Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

 14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

 I love the salt part because salt makes everything better  and that is what the gospel does to us and in return we can make the world better. and of course the part about the light has a similar meaning. and it makes me think of what light does it helps us see and the gospel of jesus christ most definitely does that but we need to be humble. 

well love you all lots maybe.... hahah 

NOV 28 

Rachel got baptized!  So happy for her. My thanksgiving was great! we ate with a great family in our ward. We ate with the Hermasmens.  The mom is from Russia so that was fun.   She is super nice and he is a business man/firefighter so of course I loved that.  

We got more snow and we hit a deer....  its okay we only brushed him... at 15 miles an hour hahah .  He was fine he got up and ran a way kinda. 

This week we got to take care of the Hermasmens dogs after Thanksgiving so that was pretty fun playing with a huge German Shepard in the woods. Elder Herrera , Elder Jeffery and I have had tons of fun teaching all the people who speak Spanish because Elder Herrera speaks Spanish so its been great.   We taught lots of new people. 

My ponderize scripture is 1 Corinthians 13:11

its a fun one. so if any one wasting time with childish things (like i have and sometimes do) remember this scripture....

.

  When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.  

 its so good it reminds me i need to be more mature and dignified especially as i have the saviors name on my chest.  

Also please look up this great little Christmas video https://www.mormon.org/?cid=HP_FR_25-11-2016_dMIS_fmorg_xLIDyL1-A_

NOV 21

Well this week was so fun it snowed twice in fact its snowing right now, not sticking much except on the mountain peaks. We moved too! We now live up town the place is sooo nice and its right next to a ton of trail heads in the forest.   Its like a dream the only thing is we can only go for workouts in the morning and on Mondays if we have time. 

This week was amazing we got to teach a ton of people new people and there is a baptism Saturday for an investigator. The members here are amazing they bring people who are interested to church.   Its great we will be having thanks giving with a family who owns the place we live in.  He is a firefighter and his son who is like 30 plus does crossfit so that should be fun. I  survived transfers I will stay here with Elder jeffery and we will be getting another missionary to so it will be great. 

 My ponderize scripture is  moroni 10:33

 And again, if ye by the grace of God are perfect in Christ, and deny not his power, then are ye sanctified in Christ by the grace of God, through the shedding of the blood of Christ, which is in the covenant of the Father unto the remission of your sins, that ye become holy, without spot. 

This is something we all need to do/remember always.

love Elder Roskelley
