Dear Family and Friends,
To be completely honest, I typically don't know how to start these things off (I STINK AT INTROS). In high school, I would try to bribe my mom to help my write my intro's for school and clearly I've been out of a college English class for too long. I guess I'll start off with a warm HELLO. I am Sister(Hermana) Bennett. I am 19 years old. I am a college student and Brigham Young University-Idaho. I love to travel, shop and adore anything to do with designing. I have the worlds-greatest chocolate chip recipe that is literally to die for (Yup. This is real life). I am a believer of christ. I live my life following him. I am a mormon. I am a soon to be sister missionary. I will be serving an 18-month mission in Guayaquil, Ecuador preaching what I know with every fiber of my being to be true. This blog is to document my letters and pictures sent home to my family while I am away.
I am grateful for the opportunity to serve. I know that this gospel is truth. It brings families together and great amounts of peace. My life is by no means "perfect", although through Christ's atonement and great love for me, I have the ultimate best friend. He has carried me (and YOU) through all of life's hardships and trials and completely understands our daily needs. I know that through much study and prayer, you and I both can draw closer to God and Jesus Christ.
I just want to end this first post with my favorite song. This song has always brought me
peace and I invite you to listen to it! (Please excuse the picture quality on the video)
