Another week gone by here in Raleigh! We have now been in quarantine for 20 days. We had some pretty crazy stuff happen this week.
On late Friday night we got a call from the Assistants and they said Elder Fonnesbeck was getting transferred in the morning so pack all his stuff. So he was up until 1am packing up his stuff.
We drove over to the stake center and picked up my new companion Elder Lignell. He came out with Elder Fonnesbeck so he's been out for 18 months, from Pleasent Grove Utah!
The craziest thing that happened this week was General Conference. We were sitting there watching it and they got up to sustain the new General Authority's. Well a couple names in and they read off "Matthew S. Holland" , my heart dropped. President Holland sent out an email immediately saying that on July 1st he will no longer be our mission President. Pretty crazy he will finish his mission a year early, definitely did not see that one coming.
General Conference was great, so many inspiring messages about the Restoration of the Gospel.
One thing that stood out to me is when President Nelson said the pattern for happiness, joy, and success is to "Hear Him"!
I'm pretty sure those are things that we all seek after and desire!
I know that President Nelson is a Prophet of God. I know that these principles he teaches are true!
I know that as I have sought after the voice of the Lord, I have been able to receive the revelation needed for my life and for those around me and it has brought me joy!
Love yall
Elder Forrest
