Siis, Sisar Kwok and I had a really interesting talk the other night about Christ. (you know when you are missionaries and doing church stuff 24\7 its kinda a normal thing to have late night pillow talk about gospel principles...#missionarylife) But we were talking about the literal way that what we do to those around us Matt 25. 40 "even as you have done it unto the least of these brethren, you have done unto me". When Christ suffered in Gethsemane He felt all our pains and our happiness, so that would mean that in a literal sense, when we bring another person happiness, it is something that Christ felt and "knew" when He suffered the Atonement of all Gods children. This has brought me thinking in a new way this week. We are so appreciated for the good we do, not only just by the person that we help, but by Christ as well. (this is just the quick version from Sisar Cardon's p-day scatter brain at email time.)
Rakkaudella, (lovingly) Sisar Cardon
p.s. We played Sähly (floor hockey) last saturday and I was informed in the middle of the game (about 13 hours before church) that I would be giving a talk. Suomeksi (In Finnish). For the first time. You better believe that I killed it (the definition of "killing it" is debatable depending on the person) but it was an experience. :)

| Kebob with the district...I dont know why the elders love it so much. I feel like once a year is quite alright for Sisar Cardon when it comes to eating a pile of practically raw meat..but nonetheless, its was an eventful after district meeting lunch. |
