Spending time in our area

 Soooooo the past 2 weeks have been GREAT!!! Last week we for the first time in like 4.5 months had a FULL day in our own area to do missionary work and also without any exchanges. It felt soooo good to be doing work!! It really is the best to be serving others and the Lord❤️


There was so much that has happened since last email...

There is one area out in Eagle Mountain that has quote a lot of polygamists (have more than one wife) it was a very interesting vibe out there. We didn't run into any of them that night but oh man I heard quite a lot of stories.

I am still in Lehi. I have been here for almost 7.5 months (5 transfers) and I will most likely stay for 3 more months. I love this area there is so much work to be done so it'll be lit. 

We have ran into soooo many people who really don't like the church or who left it. It's always just so interesting. I have come to see the difference very clearly in those who follow Christ or are trying vs those who once knew Christ and abandoned Him. Christ will ALWAYS give us peace and the world will always give tribulation. John 16:33 "These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world."
Please, we all need more peace, turn to Christ. The Book of Mormon witnesses that God speaks to Hus children. Which is us. Reach out to me to get a Book of Mormon. I invite you all to read it and pray to know if it is the word of God. I promise you will be guided to the truth, for the Book of Mormon is truth. And when you apply it's teachings in your life you will receive more peace. 
Alma 31:5 "And now, as the preaching of the word had a great tendency to lead the people to do that which was just—yea, it had had more powerful effect upon the minds of the people than the sword, or anything else, which had happened unto them—therefore Alma thought it was expedient that they should try the virtue of the word of God." 

Alma was a missionary and he went and taught these certain people the "word of God" because he knew the impact it would make. At this time I am thinking it is "expedient that [you] should try the virtue of the word of God". After Alma taught these people their whole lives and their kids lives were changed for the better and they were able to enjoy peace even thru hard times. I know this can happen for you if you accept the Book of Mormon as the word of God. 
Love you all❤️❤️

Riley's Farewell and Setting Apart

Image
 Riley's farewell talk at church was super special. We had all kinds of friends come to see him. Chris and Brandon (of course), from work was Troy, Rob and Mark, plus the Heaven family. The Zemp's, Tatlow's, Cutler's and Molcak's. Meshak, Nate. Of course the Lee's. I had a long ago friend, Gena, drive down from Edmonton to be with us. Plus on Zoom we had The Crenshaw's and Droegemueller's from Idaho Falls, Steven Tran, Grandma and Grandpa Martin, Grandpa and Champ, Tyler Baker family, and Grams and Victor and Shail!  The Dean Girls all sang Go and Do, Riley gave his talk on Service, which I was told was very genuine and humble. Brandon gave the closing prayer. It was a good day. Riley's talk I have been asked to speak on service. Now  service in the dictionary says, “the action of  helping or doing work for someone.” And don’t  get me wrong this is a correct definition but I  found another definition that I prefer it says, “to love, care, repair, mai...

  Sorry everyone...its been a while since my last email. I've gotten insanely busy it's crazy hahaha, it's good tho. I will try not to make this too long but I'll get the best parts of the last week's... So first off Griffin got baptized!!! He was such an awesome kid. He was so excited to get baptized. After he got baptized and got dressed he was jumping up and down saying he got baptized!!! Zion got baptized. He is 13 years old and about 6'5" he's such an awesome kid. His sister is 8 and she also got baptized with him. We promised him we would play basketball one time with him and it was so fun. He is such a smart kid already he already has his own business and he is managing it all himself   so crazy The 4 kids in the bottom picture are so awesome. So we have talked with the Mom in the past about getting the 9 and 12 year old baptized and she said she wants to wait a lil longer, and that was a few weeks ago. Then this week I was on exchange with anoth...

FIRST SNOWFALL HERE❄🥶

  What up everyone... I hope yall are doing wonderful!!! Been thinking about all of you. We went to A LOT of Christmas parties this week... we helped out a ton. One of them we dressed up and I was a tax collector, and we greeted people for a live nativity. Another one we cut so much ham  another one we set up the lights which took forever   But in one of the parties it was evident that GODS TIMING IS PERFECT. So we were running a little late because we had a message with a family. But we showed up and I actually had to go to the bathroom  and then after that the party was having like a group thing. The groups would go to s few different classes and here a story or do an activity before everyone just goes to the gym and eats. We'll because of the perfect timing, we were in a group with a family who has a son that isn't baptized. So we got to know them and we ate dinner with them and they are so awesome!!!! And then next day they called us and had us over to play ...
