This came from my niece in Finland serving a mission.
"One of the biggest things this week that has impacted me I mentioned briefly last time, was from the women’s session, the talk which talked about memorizing the Living Christ, so my companion and I decided to do it in Finnish, I mostly finished memorizing it this morning, the last paragraph is still just a bit rough. It's been a really amazing experience, and keeps our thoughts even more focused on the Savior. It's so nice to have that running through my mind as we are walking or as I’m falling asleep at night... I’m just now wondering if I ever recite it in my sleep haha... but it's been super cool way to help me be better at keeping that promise I made at baptism to ALWAYS remember him. Anyways, it's really impacted me deeply this week memorizing the prophet’s and apostle’s testimony of Christ, and it's something I’m determined to ALWAYS keep memorized, by continually going through it in my head when I have different quiet moments. I'd invite ALL of you to start working on memorizing it too, except probably don’t try and do it in Finnish, that wouldn't do most of you any good :) but really, the words of it bring a power to the read, and having it will memorized bring a special power in your lives."
