  Happy Pioneer day from Ephraim Utah! This week was a blast and it felt like it went by in no time. Also, I hit my 11 month mark a few days ago, almost halfway there! This past week I went on exchanges just about every day this past week and my favorite day was Wednesday. On Wednesday I was on exchanges with Elder Glunt who is getting started in his second transfer now in Mount Pleasant and together we found 3 new friends that evening to start teaching! Honestly things have been a little slow in Ephraim at the moment so it was a nice change in pace for a bit! My other favorite day was Saturday because Niko finally got baptized!! His mom finally agreed on a day Niko was so excited! What an awesome kid, thanks for all the prayers because they helped immensely! Our district has seen quite a bit of success this past week, in total we've found 10 new friends and had 3 baptisms. The Lord is pushing the work forward! Also shoutout to Brandon Cluff, he just happened to come up to Ephraim ...

  Hey whats going on everybody? Super sorry for bothering sending and email last week, these past few preparation days have been all over the place and I've run out of time to write my emails, I promise I read them all! I WILL get back to you eventually, just keep sending them! Today was busier then most (we drove up the mountain again, didn't get stuck this time thankfully but it was quite a drive, then had chores and a party with the rest of the district kind of) so this email might be a bit rushed. The biggest news is Boman got baptized this last saturday!! I can't tell you how happy we were and even better, Boman was happier than we were! The little guy was almost bursting the buttons on his new suit with pride after his baptism!  What's more is that Niko finally has a set date for the 22nd as well! We are praying that this baptism will be able to go through. Niko, is an amazing kid, he has been so prepared, his family just needs support, again please keep them in y...

  Happy 4th of July everybody!! Hope ya'll had a great day!  First of all I just wanted to say how grateful I am for this country and for the rights and freedoms we all enjoy! I know that God led the Founding Fathers and all the other choice people to create this country. One of my new favorite scriptures is Ether 2: 12 from the Book of Mormon which says: "Behold, this is a choice land, and whatsoever nation shall possess it shall be free from bondage, and from captivity, and from all other nations under heaven, if they will but serve the God of the land, who is Jesus Christ, who hath been manifested by the things which we have written" I also know that it is because of His Son Jesus Christ that we are free from sin and death. He is our Savior!! The past week has been great although it has been a little hard to find more people that we can teach. I've talked to just about every household here in Ephraim, and we also just got transfer news (suprise! The transfer is ove...
