Hej cześć everyone! It’s been an awesome action packed 2 weeks! 🙂

A couple highlights:

-We were back in Warsaw this last weekend for our District Conference, when all the members in the cities around Warsaw gather together for one big meeting. It was so awesome to see everyone 🙂

– There was a baptism after conference! It was an absolutely beautiful experience. It is such an amazing blessing to be able to be baptized under the same power and authority in which Christ was baptized!!

– Dzień Kobiet! In Poland they celebrate International Women’s Day on March 8th and while we were at the dom pomocy that morning, a bunch of cute elementary aged kids came and gave us all cards 🙂 It was adorable!

-CULTURE NIGHT!!!

For culture night we went to the Lublin Castle and toured the museum inside, including the beautiful chapel!

Yesterday I gave a talk in church on one of my favorite subjects: God’s love for us! One of my favorite quotes by Elder Uchdorf is:

“And while we may look at the vast expanse of the universe and say, “What is man in comparison to the glory of creation?” God Himself said we are the reason He created the universe! His work and glory—the purpose for this magnificent universe—is to save and exalt mankind.  In other words, the vast expanse of eternity, the glories and mysteries of infinite space and time are all built for the benefit of ordinary mortals like you and me. Our Heavenly Father created the universe that we might reach our potential as His sons and daughters.

This is a paradox of man: compared to God, man is nothing; yet we are everything to God. While against the backdrop of infinite creation we may appear to be nothing, we have a spark of eternal fire burning within our breast. We have the incomprehensible promise of exaltation—worlds without end—within our grasp. And it is God’s great desire to help us reach it.”

The same Heavenly Father who created the universe created us- and He loves us SO MUCH, knows us so individually, and wants the very best for us. His work and his glory is for us to have eternal life with him! I can’t even express how incredibly grateful I am for that. I am so grateful for this gospel and for the incredible opportunity to be in Poland sharing a message I love!

I love you all! I hope you have a wonderful week!!!
