Just Another Week In The NOM

We had such a fire week!!! We be flying like a plane tho. There's no way it's been more than 2 days. Another week gone. 

We found 17 new friends. We also got 10 friends to church again. We put 2 new friends on date for baptism this week.
Makuiy, pronounced like Mccoy. Super cool guy. Really wants to follow Jesus Christ.
Shelove, she is soooo cool. She is from Haiti and has lived in America for 6 months. We had a lesson with our mission President and his wife. We extended the invitation for March 2nd to be baptized and she said she needs more time. Then Sister Calaway gave a fire testimony. She then accepted the invitation for March 2nd.

I've been absolutely grinding the Rubix cube. Never ever thought I'd ever be able to solve one of those jawns. Now I can solve one in under 2 minutes. Ya I'm kinda like that. 

My favorite member Sister Ahrens the sweetest old lady ever got the bad news that she has stomach cancer. Please keep her and her family in your prayers. 

We might have a baptism this week. It's like a 50/50 at this point. We will see. We also get to go to the temple this week. Let's gooooo. 

Spiritual Thought
We are all children of our Heavenly Father. Even when you don't feel like it, you are. I know that I have felt like I'm not sometimes. Sometimes it's really hard to feel our Fathers love. We have to remember life is never supposed to be easy. We had the option to come down here and go through the trials we go through. Yes, they suck so much but, we can get through them WITH our Savior Jesus Christ. 

Philippines 4:13
I can do all things through Christ which strengthen me.

I love you all, I hope you had an amazing week. You should tell me about it

Maybe The Weirdest Week Of My Life.....But Also Two Baptisms?????

Wow I don't even know how to start this. We left Tuesday morning for Omaha. We meet a very enthusiastic convert. I don't even know how to describe her but just wow she was kinda a lot. But she was super awesome and helped us get to the airport. Then we met a very anti lady who I'm not sure was fully there. She was calling Joseph Smith the devil and that were all going to Hell. That was fun.  Flight went great and the sunset in Omaha as we were landing was incredible. Had the first good meal since I had my last meal cooked by my mom. MTC food sucks. Then we found out where we're going to be serving and I'm serving in the Falls Park area in Sioux Falls. Like 30 people came up to me and told me how lucky I am. Apparently it's the best area in the mission. Pretty crazy I guess.  We had a 3 hour drive to get out here. Then I met my trainer Elder Ruddell. He's pretty sick. Very good trainer. Went straight to finding and that was crazy. Still getting used to that. ...

Another Day Another Dollar

Welcome back to another epic week in the NOM. This week starts with throwing a couch off a balcony. Let's get into it.  We finished closing the old apartment, so we had to get everything out of it.... Including the couch. We are on the second floor, and I was not about to carry that downstairs so.... We just threw it off the balcony. There's a vid in my Google photos so check it out.  Had a fire exchange with Martino who is a brand new greenie. Was pretty sick and had a lot of fun.  Got 12 people to church this week. We were told by our Mission President to invite everyone we see to church, so I guess it works. He might know a thing or two maybe. Also got the FLDS broda there. So lit. My momma had her birthday so give her a little late happy birthday to her. Also did something that would make her proud prolly. We ate some Ethiopian food and guess what, it was mainly eggs.  For those of you who don't know, I absolutely hate eggs. But I thuged it out and it was pretty ...

The Spirit Of Contention

Yo what it do, gang. Well, I don't know how to start this email. It was a great week, until Sunday.  I went on two exchanges this week. They were so sick. Me and my zl went on one. Me and my boy Bergy went on a crazy exchange, it was so funny. Did some random things. It was a legendary day for sure.  This whole week was just prepping for JJ and Fes' baptisms. They were looking golden. These kids are so elect. They were so hyped to get baptized..... We pick them up early for church cause my bishop wants to talk with them before they are baptized. Their dads go in there with them. JJ is 10 and Fes is 9, they are best friends who are both from Congo. Their dads also know each other. This interview lasts 30 minutes. Our bishop walks out and comes over to us and says, they aren't getting baptized.....  He said that their dads said they aren't ready yet. I have been asking their dads if I can do this every day for the past 8 days. I truly do not know what happened. I was so m...
