Come Unto The Mountain of The Lord!

Hello Everyone!

That's right! We're going to the temple this week! The Raleigh one to be exact! I really just can't wait! The temple truly is the house of the Lord.
This week was good! We did a lot of street contacting and one of the days I was on exchanges with one of our Zone Leaders. He taught me a few things about street contacting. We talked with literally everyone! One of the people we talked to was about 40 feet away and most of the time I would have just thought she was too far away, but he said hello (Haha more or less yelled hello) and we went and talked to her. We had to kind of do a mini-jog to get to her, but it was good! So I learned from him that we should just talk to everyone, even if it's a little awkward.
One of our investigators is starting to come along a little bit. We went over last night with one of our members and had a really good lesson with him. He told us that he had read from the Book of Mormon, which he had never done before, and he really connected with the member. I am excited to see what the future holds!
I would invite each of you to attend the temple in the next month. It truly is the house of the Lord and we can receive so much peace and guidance in our lives as we make it a priority to go to that holy place. I know that if you will always live worthy of the temple, the Lord will bless your lives immensely. I love you all and hope everyone has a fantastic week!

With Love,
Elder Rogers
