Sister Galli Goes to Washington: Warm Before the Storm

This week was quite mild and pretty warm, although the mornings and evenings are beginning to have a "crisp" feel to them. It won't be long before the leaves begin changing and the snow begins falling.
But what storm is coming that I must warn you all about? One is that next p-day, we will leave the mission. Yes, it's premeditated. We will be going to Arlington National Cemetery with all the missionaries going home within the next 6 months, as has been the tradition for many mission presidents. So chances are high I will have little to no time to email next week.
The other thing is that we have a Baptism this Saturday! It's for Paul, Mireille's husband. I have been so blessed to have played a small but significant part in their eternal journey. And not just see it, but to have an active role in all of their conversions! Their family will always be near and dear to me.

General Conference was Fantastic! At least of the 85% of it we were able to watch. At the VC, we have to miss one talk per session as to cover the floor and greet and teach any non-members that happen to come into the VC at that time. We were able to teach to men from Sweden actually during the first speaker on Sunday morning so that was cool.

This week I've really taken the time to see God's hand in my life. It's not something I'm very good at seeing in the moment, but even just daily reflection at the end of the day has made it so I can see what's been hiding in plain sight. I'm so grateful for all we've been given as members of the restored gospel, especially the knowledge of the Plan of Salvation. It's an amazing gift so please share it with others!

Having more fun than ever before!
