MTC Highlights

July 22, 2017 Dear Mom, I'm pretty happy that I can finally email you. Not being able to for these first couple days kinda made it hard. The MTC is actually pretty cool and the food is not so bad either (your food is better mom), but I just want to get out into the field and start teaching out there. I've already seen a lot of people I know and a lot of people that look like someone I know, like my companion. July 22, 2017 Hey Everyone, I have missed you all and can't wait to hear from all of you. The MTC is actually pretty cool with its good food and the thousands of people you meet everyday. What really made my day was being able to play some sports for my exercise time which was one thing I was afraid I wast going to be able to do.

If you get th...

Hey everyone,       So, like last time I will put together a day-to-day email, and trust me these last few days have been pretty eventful. Monday, 8/14/2017      Today was pretty eventful.

Hello Everyone, I actually managed to get all of the days typed and my email sent rather than delete it.  As usual I will have a big email full of my days and moments, and what I have found is that there are a lot of opportunities and moments when on your mission. A mission is never about the person serving, it is about the people you serve. You don't improve your testimony with the intention of using it for yourself, but you use your testimony to help others realize what God and the gospel can do for them. Sept 5, 2017 When I came out here on my mission I was pretty excited, but I soon found that missionary work was not what I expected. The world is a different place and people may not always take kindly to missionaries. It has come to me that when you teach and the person doesn't accept what you have taught, it doesn't mean the lesson was a waste of time or effort. It means that you and God now know that no matter the circumstance, you are wi...
