6 weeks left 8-19-2024

I start my last transfer tomorrow, I will be staying in Orofino and I will have the privilege of training a brand new missionary. Its gonna be great. Here are some updates in the work ... Our friend Henry got the aaronic priesthood last week. Our friend Nicole has been absolutely grinding in the Gospel Library. She's read the first 2 books in the Book of Mormon, 1/3 of the Doctrine and Covenants and a lot of the other resources in the app. She has a hunger for the Gospel! She came to church for the first time yesterday and enjoyed it a lot! Not much else is new. After a while missionary work becomes life and everything seems normal to me. I'm doing really good and hope you are too!

It's been a while 5-13-2024

  It's been a while since I wrote an email. A lot has happened! So our friend Asia did get baptized! It was an incredible service. Her leg was still hurting from the bus accident so she stood for the duration of the entire service and when she walked into the font and I baptized her she said there was no pain in her legs which was a miracle. She has been coming to church to an earlier ward because she had a Sunday work schedule but just this week she was able to shift that around so we're looking forward to having her come to her ward and grow in the gospel.  In other news I have been quite busy with some of the craziest things I've seen in my life. I thought this area couldn't get any sketchier but alas it has .... We are teaching a friend named Clarice and we showed up to her house for a lesson and there were six cop cars in the front yard. We waited around for a bit and when they all left we started talking with Clarice and she told us that her husband beat her up be...

This week my emotions were a rollercoaster 2-12-2024

  This week was pretty dang crazy. Last week on our family home evening zoom call we received the news that Elder Andersen from the Quorum of the 12 apostles is coming to our mission on March 23rd for a mission-wide zone conference. We have not had a mission-wide conference in years. It's going to be really sweet, we as a mission are spiritually preparing ourselves for his coming. In other news we spent a lot of time in our favorite trailer park, Shorty McCombs park and unfortunately someone got shot and murdered in that park a few days ago. On that very street we have four progressing friends eek. Those friends are really cool and we have been working with them for a little over two weeks. We have our friend Lotus who is 10 years old and it seems like every time we go to teach her she has a different friend hanging out at her house. This week her friend McKenna was there and she was asking some very deep questions such as, "what happens if you're a good person and you go ...

What do you know about the North Side? 10-23-2023

  We were in the north side of our area, and we were looking for a friend named Korey who missionaries have not contacted in a long time. There was this random guy leaf blowing the parking lot and it turned out he was Korey and he invited us inside his home because he said they were evil spirits inside of his bedroom and inside of his wife. We went inside and offered a prayer to bless the home and then I offered a blessing upon his wife and that was a really cool experience because right before she was super irritable and mad at her husband but afterwards she was crying and laughing and super happy so that was a testimony to me of priesthood power. This week I also went on an exchange with my zone leader Elder Keller who I served around in Moscow. This was his first time in his mission on a bike and he had the time of his life. We found this really cool lady and referred her to the sisters whose area she lived in and we proceeded to have a really great day where I learned a lot abo...
