Excerpts from the letter we received from Robyn on Wednesday June 19, 2013

June 6, 2013

Mom, Dad, Nathan, Hunter, Isaac and Michael,

There was a couple of scriptures (more like chapters) I wanted to share with you, Alma 7 and 36.   I love love love them.  Over my life I’ve slooowly learned that we genuinely have to humble ourselves before God before He can work miracles through us.  He is waiting very patiently for us to come to Him, but we have to do it the right way ….like the repentance process, all the steps count!  Who knew?!  I KNOW  that Christ is our Savior and Redeemer.  I know that He has already paid for our sins and that He is just waiting and hoping we will do our part to access the atonement.  I know that through Christ ANYTHING is possible.  He can heal a broken heart, a guilty conscience, and the sick.  I know He can.  His atonement is INFINITE!  I love Him and I love all of you.  I’m eternally grateful that I get to be sealed to you for EVER!  I wouldn”t have it any other way.  You are all too precious to me to not be with you for the rest of forever.   I love the gospel and the joy it brings!

OOOkay!  Today was pretty good.  Why?  Oh, just, ya know…Awesome food, awesome game of volleyball, awesome maestros, awesome teaching experiences, awesome companions, and awesome LIFE!   We had what I think was Chicken Cordon Bleu, rice, veggies… just the usual!  Ha, they really feed us well here.  Ok, enough about food.  So today, we… oh dear… what did we do…oh!  So we’ve been singing Come Thou Fount a lot and Hna Merrell and Elder Christensen wrote a couple new verses for it.  So of course we all sang it!  And Hermano Guirola (our day teacher) videoed us and is going to put it on the YouTube and email you a link to the video.

I love love love Sundays.  Honest tabetsy.  So much stuff!  Honestly, Why didn’t anyone say I’d learn this much in one day?  I would have brought more pens and paper!  Luckily, we’re going to Walmart on Tuesday.

Michael and Isaac, I LOVE YOU!  Also, don’t forget to open the door for mom.

Hunter and Nate, I wouldn’t mind emails from you two!  Oh, also, if I was you, I would start memorizing D&C 4 and The First Vision.

Mom, I also love when I get to chat with you! 

P.S  I’m putting my mission home address on the envelope.

P.P.S I REALLY DO LOVE YOU!  LIKE, LOTS!

P.P.P.S.  MY SPANISH IS REALLY COMING A LONG!  It’s rocky and not at all perfect.  But it’s coming.  It’s also very humbling to speak to natives… comprehension goes way down.  But as soon as I get in the field my learning will sky rocket.  I KNOW IT!

I LOVE YOU

Love, Hermana Evans
