Elder Scott Takes on Spokane: Coeur D'Alene, ID- Week #86

Logan's companion enjoys sleeping on this table rather than his bed

Hey what's up hello!! How was everyone's week?! I hope it was good! Mine was really good as well! Lots of walking and not a lot happened this week.. But I can't complain it's all about the experience! 😂 This week was great! I had the great opportunity to go on Exchanges with my good friend Elder Miner! It was a ton of fun and it was good to be back with the companion I started this whole crazy journey with almost 20 Months ago! 😂 We both have grown and matured a lot over the times but at the same time we haven't and didn't skip a beat! 😂 This time was different these people were REAL PEOPLE! Not fake ones that just work at the MTC! 😂 It was good though we had a lot of fun and did a lot of good work! 😂 Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, were all pretty much the same.. We do service at the Pizza Factory and fold pizza boxes every Friday after District Meeting! That is always my most favorite thing of the week! I get a lot of paper cuts cause I am what they call "Slow" at this whole process. 😂 My District always makes fun of me about that! 😂 They will eat those words one day! 😂 Saturday was a harder day we didn't have a whole lot planned or lessons so it was a lot of finding (Knocking doors, walking around, that kind of stuff. 😂).. pretty much all day! I was not excited. But we survived so I learned all things are possible! 😂 we did find a lot of people to talk to! The Lord really does put people in your path when you are being obedient and trying your best! That's all he asks of us is to try our best. 😊 Melanie, one of our investigators who is on date, texted us and telling us she wanted to stay at her church she is now.. we were freaking out because she is one of our most solid investigators! 😂 we went over and she had so many hang ups, about this and that and a lot of little things! We taught her the importance of the Book of Mormon because it is so important and so crucial to our conversion! This is something that I have kept thinking about this week. It has always come back again and again. The Book of Mormon is the Keystone of our religion and it is so important! Without the Book of Mormon everything would come down! I mean EVERYTHING! It is pretty much the foundation of this church! If we come find out it's true then it proves that Joseph Smith was a Prophet called by God and that the Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints is God's restored church on the Earth again! Joseph Smith's story alone is crazy to believe! Let's take a step back here for a second. You are telling me that a 14 year old boy saw and talked to God the Father and Jesus Christ FACE TO FACE at age 14? That he also was led by an angel to these "Golden Plates" that have been hidden in the Earth for hundreds if not thousands of years? That he also Translated these things by the gift and power of God from this ancient writing to English? With a 3rd grade education? I mean come on now that's sounds freaking crazy! But I can tell you w oth every fiber in my being that it is true. It is so true just like the sky is blue! (Ha that rhymed. 😂) I know it to be true because I have put it to the test. I got on my knees and asked the only guy that would know if it's true or not. That guy is our Father in Heaven. With this whole story it's either it's true or it's not. There really is no grey area with it. It can't somewhat be true. It's either fully true or fully false! That's something that we need to decide foe ourselves! Isn't that great? No one forces it on us we get to decide? 😂 It's either Joseph Smith saw and did everything he says or he made it all up... It's really that easy. I know that man to be a Prophet and that he really saw and did everything he says he did. I know that to be true with everything in me! But it all comes back to the Book of Mormon. That is the convincing evidence of Jospeh Smith! And that God loves all of his children EVERYWHERE! No matter where they are at, no matter if they are tall, short, black, white, green or orange! (As you can tell I love that line! 😂) All we have to do is read it and Pray about it. Sincerely ask God if it's true. I can promise you he will answer. Literally don't judge a book by its cover!😂 I see so many people out here doing that though. It makes me so sad on the blessings and things they are missing out on though.. What a blessing the Book of Mormon and the Restoration is to me and my Family. I know it to be true if I didn't I know for a fact I wouldn't be out here! 😂 Sorry for the tangent There! 😂 I get super vocal about that as you can tell! 😂 It just means so much to me! I wouldnt be the man i am today without it believe it or not! 😂 Well that's all the updates I have for this week! We continue to see miracles and Springtime is coming FINALLY!! *Knocks on Wood* well I love you all talk to you all next week! Remember the Church is True, the Book is literally blue, Cows say moo, and I love you! So does Jesus! 😂 anyways sorry for the crazy email! 😂 Talk to you all later! LOVE YOUUUUUUU!!

Love,

ELDER LOGAN SCOTT :)
