Day 45

Today two of my friends and I went up to Salt Lake for fun.  While we were at Deseret Book we saw one of my cousin's mission companions!  I was surprised that she even remembered me.  Anyway, it was such a wonderful coincidence/blessing that we saw each other because the sister is getting married soon and she wanted to contact my cousin but wasn't sure how.

It is amazing to see how a mission truly blesses the lives of those who serve.  I know I've definitely talked about her before, but my cousin, Tricia, has been a huge influence on my decision to serve a mission (and I'm so grateful).  I love hearing about all their experiences and want to have the same love that they have for the people they serve.  I hope that I can be even half as incredible as my cousin and her companion were on their missions.
