Hey everybody!

This week was cool. We had a crazy nor'easter storm last Wednesday. We drove up to Boston in the morning for a meeting and had a fun time getting back to Connecticut that evening.

We had some more exchanges this week. I got to go back to Rhode island for a day. It was cool to be near the beach again. We stopped by a referral that lived in the same building as a yacht club. We got some cool pics.

Elder Roberts and I have had a good week otherwise. Lots of miracles. My favorite was last Monday night. We were tracting and a man answered the door. He said he was busy skyping his family, but he agreed to having us come back in 10 minutes. A few doors and some interesting conversations later, we went back to his house. He let us in and we had an awesome lesson. It turns out that he was talking to his family about a tragedy that had just happened. We talked about the plan of salvation and he was glad that we came by. He's a cool guy.

We got asked to give the talks in sacrament meeting on Saturday. I've always wanted to have a short notice assignment to speak. I talked about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I love this scripture from Ezekiel 18-

"21 But if the wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath committed, and keep all my statutes, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall surely live, he shall not die.
22 All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live.
24 But when the righteous turneth away from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, and doeth according to all the abominations that the wicked man doeth, shall he live? All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned: in his trespass that he hath trespassed, and in his sin that he hath sinned, in them shall he die."
I love this. I know it's true. Repentance is available to everyone.


Love,
Elder Rogers
