Last day!


A day for reflections
Today was the last day of the tour; I still cannot believe how fast it flew by. Last night, with all our homework turned in, we squeezed into the hotel hot tub!! It was good to reflect with the group and enjoy one another’s company.
            This morning we held a testimony meeting, and watched Joseph Smith the prophet of the restoration. This is such a great movie and I strongly encourage all to watch it. The movie was moving, especially because I had been to most of the places talked about. It sang to my spirit that all of the things that I have learned about are true. Its amazing looking back in history and being able to see Gods hand in the founding of this country. Our founding fathers were inspired men who were brought up, to organize the country that we have today.
Joseph Smith saw God the father and Jesus Christ in the sacred Grove when he was 14 years old. Because of his obedience and courage we can be with our families for eternity. I am grateful for the sacrifices and challenges that the early saints went through; they are amazing examples to me. This trip has been amazing, I have learned a lot and made life long friends. Can’t wait to learn more! Especially about my family history, God is so good!
