My Testimony: September 9, 2015

"Wow,  I'm going on a mission. I remember I used to sing about going on a mission in Primary and now the day has come when I serve for the two hardest,best,emotional,two years of my life. First off I apologize for forgetting to write my testimony in the book but here is my testimony straight from the MTC. Braxton, Bracken, Brendan, GO.ON.A.Mission. Even if you have doubts, (which at some point you may) GO! I can promise you it is going to be so worth it. You are going to be having some very hard times, but also some awesome rewarding spiritual times. Your first week at the MTC is going to be like a fire hydrant and you are going to be very overwhelmed but that is but a brief moment. Taylor, Taylor, Miranda, Allie, Maddie, you aren't asked to go on a mission but if you do go all of you would be amazing missionaries. So if you are debating whether to go and don't know if you want to go three words of advice. PRAY PRAY PRAY. I guarantee you if you do pray you will get an answer. And if you don't go that's okay too, you aren't asked to go so don't feel like it's an obligation. But you would be such good missionaries and the people you would serve would love you so much. Friends, as a missionary I just want you to know that I do have a testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. God lives and loves us all very very much. Thomas S. Monson is a true prophet in these days. The Book of Mormon is the most true book that we could ever have (so read it) in the name of Jesus Christ Amen."
