2020-->2021- Week 81

 Good morning Idaho/Utah or anywhere else that gets this email! 


We are officially over half way done with the transfer!! I can't believe how time works. I am pretty sure it's like this, 365 days in a year, 7 days a week, 24 hours in a day, but for some reason I feel like I'm missing a few of those days and hours in there?? 🤷‍♂️  

I have also decided that I eat way to much... and I've gained some weight😅 I have started working out a little harder and I personally feel that instead of loosing the weight it is all just congregating in my belly😳 I have learned that I've developed a new talent like my brothers and father! They are all experts at pushing their bellies out like they are super fat! I tried it once and man did it look good! 

I am truly grateful for all of you and for your kind gestures to me through this holiday season! My personal studies have increased my ability to understand more the stories in the Book of Mormon. It is wonderful! 

Many have said 2020 was the hardest year of their lives, I'd agree. It was by far different than any other year I have ever lived. But on the contrary, it is also by far the year I have learned/changed the most  to become more like my Savior Jesus Christ. I believe this pandemic is more than just a virus getting passed around, but rather a way God is helping us find a new perspective in life. Have you found it yet? Maybe it is different for each person! Don't be afraid to change old habits, or bad practices. Find your new motivating force that helps you keep your life centered on Jesus Christ. 

You all are seriously amazing!! Keep on keeping on❤

Love, 
Elder Ricks
