Amazing Temple Experience

Hey everyone Happy Monday!!!!! 
This week was a little different. Tuesday I went on splits with Elder Brock.  We had a really good time and got a lot done.  We got to teach one of our investigators that I haven't been able to see for over a month.  It went very well.  We have been going kind of slow with him because he has met with a lot of different missionaries in the past.  We have been trying to teach a lot out of The Book of Mormon to show him how we can learn more from its teachings.  We talked about the atonement and read out of Alma 7 about how we need faith in Jesus Christ.  We read Alma 32 as well. We talked about how you can’t cast out your faith because of unbelief.  We are making progress, slowly but surely. 
Wednesday we went to Grand Rapids for a training.  It was pretty good.  It is still hard for me to sit that long and pay attention.  Thursday my comp was sick with the flu which was not fun.  I didn't get it thank goodness. 
It was way AWESEOME on Saturday because we got to go to the temple. Elder Blackhurst taught a man named Sherman a year ago and he went through for his first time.  Sherman wanted Elder Blackhurst to be his escort. I was lucky enough to be serving with Elder Blackhurst at the time he got to be his old investigators escort.  It was crazy for Sherman. It was a 6 hour drive for him to get to the temple. For us it was only a 2 hour drive.  I can't believe how blessed we are to live so close to the temple in Utah.  It really is a big sacrifice for the members here to go to the temple. 
Well that was pretty much it. Love you all and talk to you next week!!! 
Love,
Elder Robson Fletcher
