My week was fine. I got better on Tuesday (Elder Jardine had a fever most of last week) so it was just a quick little thing. We weren't able to have the success we wanted this week, but we were able to find many great people who show promise, so we are excited for that.
I loved General Conference especially the talk of Elder Oaks (destroying those who think the church's stance on marriage should change) and Elder Holland (reminding us to be better). It was sad to hear about Elder Hales. He was truly a great man and we will miss him.
I received a call this morning at 7:15 informing me of grandpa's passing (Elder Jardine's paternal grandfather passed away October 1st.) but, all the same, your emails regarding the circumstances penetrate to my soul and for this I am grateful for God's plan for us.
This week to come, I will work as hard as I can to honor his name and will always remember him.
I love you all and pray that the Lord's hand will be in your lives continually.
Sincerely,
Elder Jardine
