Miracles Yo (10-2-17)











HELLO MY FRIENDS! What a wonderful Conference weekend it has been! It was so flipping amazing. I've never gotten sooo much out of General conference before! Maybe it's because i didnt fall alseep lol So many great talks it's hard to choose a favorite. One that hit me really hard was President Nelson's talk. He asked the question "How precious is The Book of Mormon to you?" It was like a round house kick to the face. I need to strengthen my testimony on The Book of Mormon!!!!!!!



I went on my first exchange this last week! Me and Elder Goodfellow (he is a very good fellow btw) had a blast. I was able to explore a new area, meet new people and LEARN. While on exchange we did some service at this assisted living home. Me and Elder Goodfellow helped about 10 old ladies "exercise" hehe we sat in chairs in a big circle and tossed a big balloon around LOL it was so much fun! Some of the ladies had it out for us because they would hit the balloon pretty hard towards us. But, we talked and laughed and made jokes. I love old people :)







MIRACLE OF THE WEEK

So you see a lot of little miracles as a missionary but you also see some big ones! I'd say this was my first big miracle since being a missionary!!! 

It's Sunday night. Me and Elder Simonsen need a new investigator to reach standards. We had it all under control, that night we had a lesson planned to teach this kid. We were gonna teach him and he was gonna be a new investigator and we were gonna hit standards! Well...his lesson fell through and we were running out of time to find a new investigator. But we had faith and prayed to find someone!! We were doing what we could but no luck so we decided to head in because it was getting close to 9. We are about 2 blocks away from our apartment when this kid from across the street, who we didnt even see, yells and waves us down. He runs across the street and starts asking questions, we have answers. BOOM we teach him BOOM new investigator BOOM we hit standards!!! boom MIRACLE.  I had a big ole smile on my face the rest of the night :) Good times being a missionary hehe

HELLO EVERYBODY!!!! Its my first p-day and im nearly done with my first week here at the mtc! and i LOVE IT. The new building is amazing. The murals are sooo beautiful and cool! IM so grateful that i have my classes in the new building. Its pretty nice here because we basically have our schedules planned out for us. Its about 50/50 here when it comes to food. Sometimes you get somethin good and sometimes you dont. The chocolate milk and maple bars are the BOMB. Ive decided to stop eating desserts and drinking chocolate milk because i dont plan on sending pictures of me looking fat. Misisonary Kort = healthy Kort. Speaking of being healthy...I LOVE MTC BALL. the no dunking rule really kinda kills my vibe though. I dont have an opportunity to show off my hops heheh But for real exercise time is so nice. takes away the awesome stress of the mtc and makes me feel at home. Ive seen soooooooooooo many people i know here! Grant ellison, who just left for nashville yesterday, was my...

Helloooooo!!! This whole week has been a blur. But so many cool things happened!! I went on splits again! This time with Elder Dalley. We were in the mtc together and are both newbies but we killed it! We talked with some crazy people but what's new? lol This email will be short and sweet. Hearing about weber gets me so hyped!! I wish they were that good when i was there lol crossing my fingers that they are still good 2 years from now hehe maybe byu is doing bad because they've started selling caffeinated drinks?? lolol I could be eating a little better. If it werent for biking i would probably have gained 10 pounds already... but that jump rope is awesome!!! I have a perfect spot to jump rope. Our apartment has a little patio that i go and jump on. :) our apartment also has a little work out room. Its got some treadmills, dumb bells, and a bow flex type machine. So we go and exercise there every once in a while. The weather has been nice. Its cool but t...
