La iglesia es el mismo en todo el mundo

The church is the same everywhere you go.....

I’ve been meaning to get this one onto my blog for a while, but it is one of the first things that I wrote down in my journal. The church is amazing to me!!! There are no words to express exactly how I feel, however, I do want to say that no matter where you go, the Lord is there. It is amazing to me. Our first Sunday so much was over our head, the feelings though were the same. The men in their white shirts and ties, the children scattered throughout the congregation, the young men seated in the front, even the bishopric talked like bishopric. It is our third week here and I feel like I can understand most of what is said in sacrament and Sunday school, as well as relief society, or enough to understand the lesson and follow along….but even from the beginning everything was familiar. I can be so far from home, yet so close to it at the same time. I love our church, and it is such a testament to me that maybe there is something special about it… J . I know its true.
