 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 investigator that said he wanted to join the church a while back, haven't been able to meet with him since then until now) came up to us and ASKED US if we had some time to continue the lessons! I can't tell you how good it felt for someone to come up to us and say they wanted to meet. Anyways we set up an appointment for this Wednesday, so excited!

Later Sunday evening we met with the Cox's and the Claysons for dinner again, not to share a lesson, but just to hang out and let Tikva know that just because she doesn't want the lessons that it doesn't mean that we're completely done with her and that there is no hard feelings. I've enjoyed working with them and I'm not about to quit now! They are a really cool family, Sean gave us some steaks and hamburger from the cow he just butchered and also a massive elk shed that he didnt want any more, super cool guy!

Today for pday we just took it easy, I spent the day just hanging out with Elder Smith. Gonna miss that guy.

Well, I'm looking forward to this next transfer, have a good week!

  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 ...
