"I lost on Jeopardy baby, oooo-oo-o"

  Hello Everyone!  This week has been a lot of fun, filled with miracles. I'm trying to think of some fun way to start of this email, but right now I don't have anything.  *INSERT FUN RIGHT HERE*  ( note to self put something fun above, and don't leave it as it is now. That would be embarrassing if you sent that out)  We are continuing to focus on miracles, and the start on this week there was a big miracle. We got a call from someone that referred himself online. He said that he had done a lot of research, and wanted to meet with the Missionaries. He said that he wanted to grow his Connection with God, and wanted to join The Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day saints. We where so excited and asked if he could meet tomorrow and he said yes. We had an awesome lesson with him where he did do a lot of research and most was right. At the end we asked if he would pray to know that The Book of Mormon is true and that Joseph Smith was a prophet and he said that he kno...

Miracles in times of hardships

  Hello Everyone!  It has been a fun and crazy week! Normally I wouldn't know where to start, but I think I'll start at the beginning. That way somethings make sense latter on.  I have a new companion, Elder Moss! He is awesome, and better than that he is a also a redhead! We ended up getting to know each other well because we spend a lot of time driving. Also you read that right, "a companion". We were supposed to get a brand new companion that we could train, that way we would be in a Trio. However as soon as I got to mission office, where we do transfers, I was told that there was a mistake. Apparently Elder Moss and I would not be Training. Sad time, don't know what entirely happened, but I'm grateful for being comforted by the Holy Ghost. Had I started training I would have been ready.  This week was pretty hard and stressful, but looking back I can see how God helped me through it all. Taking over your area is a challenge. I didn't really understand ...

T.T.T.T

  Hello Everybody,  I know you are all wanting to know what T.T.T.T. stands for. It is not The O.W.C.A (Organization Without a Cool Acronym). T.T.T.T is the news that I received for this next week. It stands for Third Transfer Trio Training. So we got a call last night with our transfer news for what will be the start of my Third transfer in the field. They said that I would be will Elder Moss, who is also a redhead so we have the Ginger power. And on top of that we were going to be in a Trio with a new missionary who we will be teaching him how to do missionaries things. Hope that he will be a redhead too so we can be unstoppable.  With finding out all that news I received an answer from God. A few weeks ago we had our mission President interviews. Where he sees how we are doing and helps us with things we are going through. Towards the end he asked me a loaded question. " How do you feel about Training?" I felt excited but also extremely nervous because I don't feel tha...

I Know that My Redeemer Lives!

  Hello Everyone!  What a week it has been. You would think that the fun would run out, but it never does. The biggest highlight was definitely Easter! There was so that happened and I don't have enough time to say everything. So I'll focus on the highlights. Easter was not just on Sunday, for me it has been this entire week! So I will be starting there for this week.  Our entire mission area has been working with the Wards that we are serving in to invite 125 people to Easter. It was a special time to invite all to come to Christ. My companion and I wanted to go all in on Easter, so we went to work. We invited every single member of our branch to invite 2 people. If everyone did we would pass our goal of 125. When ever we got the chance we would invite the members and ask who they planned on inviting. It was amazing seeing them get behind this because everyone was thinking of a friend that they could have come. We also told the youth that I they had invited a friend by W...

Why are you Biting me!?

  Hello Everyone,  Hope that title didn't alarm you, and if it don't worry I still have all 9 of my...….. 10 of my fingers. We were at a members house having dinner when I went to go wash my hands and I feel this- something biting my ankle. It was their big guard dog, and the the way I responded was the title above. Don't ask me why I responded first with that it just happened. Don't worry though tis but a scratch, and a little  bruising. I'm fine now, yes everything is fine, we are fine. There is no need for reinforcements, how are you? (Hope I said the general quote, and hope that you got the quote)  Man this week is hard to remember. I remember doing things and working hard but I'm pretty this week blurs together into one day.  Hang in with me while I try and piece together what happened this week.   So Monday was a thing, moving on. Just kidding it was a cool P-day spending it with the other Elders. And my favorite part was when I got my copy of t...
