Letter #20

 Hey guys, what's going on? I'll just dive right in, here's how the week went:


We had the english class again this past Tuesday, we still have no idea what we are doing but the people we're teaching are learning bit by bit! 

We met with Dathon again and found out his name is actually Daison, oops, but the lessons are going well! We put him on date to be baptized for February 18th and he's super pumped about it and well, so am I! He such a fun kid, acts like he's on a sugar rush 24/7 but he's taking it in!

We also got to help someone move in to Kanab, I don't know from where but he did tell us that he would love to learn more about the church and possibly get baptized! We are currently trying to set up another time to meet with him this week, I'll let you know how that goes. 

Today for pday we just hung out with the other missionaries, went up and visited the Fab Rats shop which was super cool. The  Fab Rats are a family who run a YouTube channel, they do a lot of fabrication and off-roading stuff, check 'em out!

These past few weeks have been an answer to my prayers, it was a little difficult to find good work to do for a while there and it was hard to not feel lile I wasn't doing enough. I had been asking the Lord for help and for more opportunities to participate in missionary work and man, the Lord provided. Now it's starting to be a struggle to get everything done in proper time and order!

The Lord will always provide for our righteous desires, we just have to be willing to accept and follow through with what He gives us! And remeber He will never give us anything to hard for us that we cannot overcome without His help. 

Love you guys, have a great week!

  Yo what's up everybody! We're quarter of the way done already! Only 18 more months to go! Also this transfer is up, it absolutely jusr flew by.  So we got transfer news last night and turns out I get to stay another transfer here in Kanab! Elder Smith sadly got kicked out, he's going to St. George somewhere but best of luck to him! It was a fun 12 weeks with yah buddy! My new companion is Elder Brown, don't know too much about him but it should be all good.  This last week was great, again nothing too much went on, just doing a lot of contacts and door knocking. It was all pretry normal until Sunday which was a blast. First we gave a talk in Orderville 1st ward about the Sermon on the Mount and how Christ's teachings has helped on the mission, which went great, giving a talk is such easier now out on the mission. Also, after the Young Single Adult sacrament meeting, Michael McDonald (I forgot if I've already told you guys about him, if not he's an investig...

  How's it going everybody? This week has been a little better for us, we were finally able to go out and work finally! I've got some bad news though, Daisons baptism didn't end up happening, he decided he wasn't ready for baptism yet and asked us to try again later. On top of that Tikva said she didn't want to take the lessons anymore for the time being so that's a bummer. We will keep trying with both of them though, the wards here are doing a great job of reaching out and fellowshipping them! Please keep Daison and Tikva in your prayers! We were able to meet with another person this week, her name is Ann and turns out she lives right behind us. She is amazing though, she loves the church and the community, she has a few minor things holding her back from joining. But with some time she'll come around.  This weekend Kanab put on a event called Ballons and Toons, they had a bunch of hot air balloons and bands and street vendors and booths. There was also a ...

  Hello! What's going on! This email is just going to be a quick one and I just wanted to share something that I've learned. We had zone conference last Thursday and the focus was having faith in Jesus Christ. Without faith centered on Him, we can do nothing and so I have focused on increasing my faith in Him. But you know what? This past week has been among the hardest weeks faith wise on the mission yet. We have not been seeing the success that we've wanted and it has been discouraging and hard, but one thing I noticed today is that we've had more successes that I've realized, such as our friends Skyla (who is getting baptized at the end of the month) and Braxton coming to church this Sunday! We've also been able to have quite a few lessons with our nonmember friends as well and we've really gotten to know the area good.  This feelings of discouragement and doubt I now realize were not my own thoughts and feelings, but that of the devil attempting to halt ...
