A New Year


 This week has been great!!! Because there wasn't really any big meetings that we had to prepare for or have we got to work in our area A LOT more than usual!!! IT WAS THE BEST!! I am still in the same area (I have been here about 10 months.) I am just with Elder Barney now because Elder Kempton went home. It's been fun!! Sorry it's been a minute since my last email

We have found quite a lot of people to start teaching. God is so good. It just seems like I am coming closer to Him. We had a AWESOME lesson with a lady named Jordan who is sooo close she just has to pick a date to get married and then she will get baptized that day or shortly after!! It's freaking crazy tho because her boyfriend is the one who was helping NBA YOUNGBOY. He helped out a log with organizing a music video and is even in some of them. He is too funny we just be cracking up laughing.
He told us NBA is meeting with missionaries and is frfr liking it. SO EVERYONE HAS TO MEET WITH THE MISSIONARIES NOW HIT ME UP TO HELP WITH THAT!!! 👀👀👀 They are so humble so the lessons are always so spiritually strong!!

There is this one family who I have contacted a few months ago and weren't the nicest but they are decently active in going to church but they have a son who isn't baptized. For some reason In the past they didn't want us to come over at all. But this week we knocked on their door and before we did in the car we prayed real hard to soften their hearts and help them be willing. The dad opened the door I just told him straight up that his son needs to be baptized and since they're already going to church it should be pretty easy. He said hol up... shut the door...came back to the door and said come on in...we went in and taught a lesson. Right now they are deciding on a date for him to be baptized but now they absolutely LOVE US.😂😂 GOD IS SO GOOD.

If any of you want to have a stronger connection with God and Jesus Christ I know that the Book of Mormon is the way. This past week I have been able to bounce back and forth reading the Bible and the Book of Mormon and I truly have felt a great connection to Christ. I just love how they work hand in hand to help us come closer to Christ. 

These verses are all from the Lord. Foukd in the Book of Mormon He says talking bout these 2 books...
                          2 Nephi 29:7-9
"Know ye not that there are more nations than one? Know ye not that I, the Lord your God, have created all men, and that I remember those who are upon the isles of the sea; and that I rule in the heavens above and in the earth beneath; and I bring forth my word unto the children of men, yea, even upon all the nations of the earth? 8 Wherefore murmur ye, because that ye shall receive more of my word? Know ye not that the testimony of two nations is a witness unto you that I am God, that I remember one nation like unto another? Wherefore, I speak the same words unto one nation like unto another. And when the two nations shall run together the testimony of the two nations shall run together also. 9 And I do this that I may prove unto many that I am the same yesterday, today, and forever; and that I speak forth my words according to mine own pleasure. And because that I have spoken one word ye need not suppose that I cannot speak another; for my work is not yet finished; neither shall it be until the end of man, neither from that time henceforth and forever."

And this is also from the Lord in the Bible talking about these 2 books...
                             Ezekiel 37:15-17
The word of the Lord came again unto me, saying,
"Moreover, thou son of man, take thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions:
 And join them one to another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand."

The Book of Mormon is the word of God. I know it, I know it because I have felt it by the power of the Holy Spirit. 
LOVE YALL❤️❤️❤️

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.

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 ...
