Only 4 Months Left

Dear Family and Friends,

I just don't really even know what to say anymore... The mission is just a magical experience.  I'm so grateful for all of the opportunities I've had to serve others, overcome adversity, teach the gospel, etc.  This has been the best experience of my life so far and I have 4 months left!

Things are going alright.  We drive all over the kingdom to represent the mission president at baptismal services and training meetings for the missionaries.  It's a lot of fun.  I'm using my organizational skills to get our own area in order as far as paperwork goes.  I've got some killer companions so it's really easy to work hard and have fun too.

The CES Devotional by Elder Nelson was wonderful last night.  He asked some very pointed questions and made some even more pointed statements.  It was inspiring.  I love that he, as far as I can remember, always mentions the Abrahamic Covenant and the Gathering of Israel.  That is such a penetrating doctrine and the Book of Mormon has a TON to say on the subject (3 Nephi 21:6 is a good start).  It means a lot to me.

I miss that giant buffalo...

Love
Elder Grabinger
