Letter #40

 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 your prayers! And thank you for all the prayers that have been said, they have brought miracles!

Just earlier Monday evening we picked up a guy named Nick, he's been interested for a while but has faced some heavy spiritual opposition in the past, prayers for him would be such a blessing as well. I KNOW that the power of prayer is real and that God is just waiting to bless His children here on earth. 

That's the most exciting news for the past couple weeks, thanks for having in there for me!

  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 ...
