WEEK 61 Slacking!

Hello Everyone! 

 Sorry I have been slacking on the emails. I'm not going to lie, emailing isn't my favorite thing. 
Sooo lets see, this week was actually a really good one! I was hardly in my area though because it seemed like everyday I had to go and travel for something. 1 day it was interviews with mission president, another was zone conference, We had to travel forever to go interview some candidates for baptism sooo yeah. But the good news was we still were able to see most of our progressing people. 

Saturday we did a service project for a few hours and then a BAPTISM! WOOT WOOT. My first for this area. She was so ready to, and it was a joy to see her take that step forward. Her name is Grace and honestly she probably should have been baptized long ago but I guess past missionaries just never followed up with her or something. But that was just so fun. 

Sunday we had many people come to church and we were so happy to see them all. After church we taught one of our progressing people, Prince. For him he always comes to church but during the week he doesn't have much time so we decided to sit him down as soon as the service ended. We had a wonderful lesson and the spirit was so strong. He is looking forward to baptism and he is doing so well. After church we went to go teach this girl Lillian. She is a 14 year old girl. I'm not going to lie sometimes she confuses me. We contacted her a while ago and ever since then she always comes to church, but the weird thing is she doesn't want us to teach her. Like we only taught her once and since then she always makes up excuses and even sometimes hides. However this time was different. After church she asked us to come and we had one of the best lesson, she told us she knows the church is true and shared with us her testimony and is looking forward to baptism. So as of now in my area we are preparing 5 people for august 10, so I'm super pumped. I will keep you all updated!

Tanner's Farewell

Image
Tanners farewell was lovely.  He really did do a nice job on his talk.  It was fun to catch a glimpse of his personality sprinkled throughout yet he was respectful as well.  He has truly grown so much this past year and I'm sure he will grow even more these next two.   I'm very grateful my family were able to come.  I think he would have felt bad if nobody was able to be here.  We stay for all three meetings so we really didn't have much of a celebration after....just the family had lunch together and then we said good-bye.  I still tried to decorate a bit so he would feel special. Here is a copy of his talk.  I don't remember hearing the poem before but I really liked it. Good morning brothers and sisters. And thank you so much for all of you who showed up to support me. When I was a young boy my mom and I were in a bank. When we were sitting down with one of the workers at the bank they asked...

WEEK 7/104: Faith

Image
(I told Tanner from his pictures it looks like he was sent to a country inhabited solely by children!) Hey everyone!! So this week was very successful, well until the end but hey I will take it. We found 4 new investigators and received 1 referral. Three of the 4 investigators we found all in one place together and we have taught them twice throughout the week. And wow, they are powerful... they have really been prepared to learn about and receive the gospel.They ask so many questions and are just so ready to learn the truth. They go to a church but realize the things going on in that church are not right, so when we extended the invitation to come to our church they were not ready. They told us they have already made a poor choice once so they want to be sure before they decided again. The next time we meet Elder Johnson and I will share some scriptures with them that I came across during personal studies. It is found in Alma 32:21-33, 33:23. These s...

MERRY CHRISTMAS (12-23-19)

Hello Friends,  Afishapa!! That translates into Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I have been listening to Christmas music a lot and I especially love the song that reads, "its the most wonderful time, of the year."... This is definitely a true and accurate statement, and as I reflected on why this is my thought lead me back to my Savior.  Christmas is about Christ, and it pains me when I see His name replaced with an X. If you have fallen given into this disrespectful temptation by placing this on social media posts, or text messages, or even posters, then I would invite you to quickly repent and put Christ back into your Christmas and lives.  That is not the only way we take Christ out of Christmas however. It is so easy to get caught into the worldly aspects such as presents, decorations or even delicious food, that we might even forget the origin of this joy.  Even I almost got caught up on this recently as I was planning an activity for s...
