Hey!
So this week has been pretty weird sense we had our P-day on
Wednesday! But... it was still really good! We were able to see some miracles and
it's been pretty awesome!
So on Thursday we were at the church printing off stuff
about to go on splits with our ward mission leader and this 19 year old kid who
is part of a member family who is not a member who has been through a ton he
has high functioning asbergers and autism, anxiety, he was addicted
to serious drugs been in jail just everything you could think of! Well
he walks in the church and was like I just got a job but I don't have money
for gas can I get 5 bucks. So our ward mission leader is super into missionary
work he just loves it! He says to him i'll give you 5 bucks if you give us 15
mins of your time (don't know if that's a good thing to do) but he said ya so we
sat down with him! He expressed to us the desire to change his life and build a
relationship with God and so we taught him the lesson. It went great and he's
getting baptised this Saturday!!
This is kinda more of a funny story not really a miracle but
we have this black investigator who is a rapper.. we went over to visit him
last week and he was plastered drunk!! He was so far gone it was hilarious! We
walk up to his door and he's rapping the words "Your momma looks like yoda
I think shes got ebola, she better jump over a boulder while shes sippin on
your soda!" Probably the greatest song I've ever heard!... NAHT!! But he was
so unteachable! he was smoking a non lit cigarette he was biting off the ends
of them then asking where the other half of it went, it was probably the
greatest time of my life! He's so thug its retarded! haha
That was pretty much my eventful week haha
Scripture...
Moroni 7:26
26 And after that he came men also were saved by faith in his name; and by
faith, they become the sons of God. And as surely as Christ liveth he spake
these words unto our fathers, saying: Whatsoever thing ye shall ask the Father
in my name, which is good, in faith believing that ye shall receive, behold, it
shall be done unto you.
Love you guys!!

“I am part of the fellowship of the unashamed. The dye has
been cast! I have stepped over the line. The decision has been made; I am a
disciple of Jesus Christ. I wont look back, let up, slow down, or be still. My
past is redeemed, my present makes sense, and my future is secure. I’m finished
and done with low living, small planning, smooth knees, colorless dreams,
tainted visions, worldly talking, cheap giving, and dwarfed goals. I no longer
need pre-eminence, positions, promotions, plaudits or popularity. I now live by
faith, lean on his presence, walk with patience, am uplifted by prayer, and
labor with power. My face is set. my gait is fast, and my goal is heaven. My
road is narrow, my way is rough, my companions are few, my guide is reliable,
my mission is clear! I cannot be bought, compromised, detoured, lured away,
divided or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice, hesitate in the
presence of the adversary, negotiate at the table of the enemy, ponder at the
pool of popularity, or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I won’t give up, shut
up, or let up, until i have stayed up stored up, and paid up of the cause of
Christ. I must go till He comes, give till I drop, preach till I know, and work
till He stops me. And when He returns for His own, He will have no problem
recognizing me. My banner will be Clear.” –Henry B. Eyring
