Hello my dear friends and family I
love you all so much and I am so grateful for all the help you all have given
in preparing me for my mission. I had another really good week and leave for
arkansas tomorrow morning at like 7 AM haha
Spiritual experience from this
week, as I was sitting in this computer lab earlier I was doing all these
different learning assessments and it had been one of the longest and hardest
working days ever haha. As I sat there a girl came running in and said Tanner
Mangum threw a hail mary and BYU won. You might have expected me to jump around,
and that is what I felt like I should do. However, as I sat there tears filled
my eyes and I was overwhelmed with a feeling of sadness and homesickness. This
is how the devil works. In this moment my companion for no reason at all just
hugged me and it was super different but I know he felt inspired to do it, and
like I dont even know how but he knew. He said to me, "Hey elder its okay
you’re doing the right thing and it will all be okay and for the best." I
love my companion he knew to comfort me in just the right time and I know it’s
from all your prayers. Thank you so much.
After a another long day me and my
companion sleep-walked into this meeting last tuesday night haha we sat in the
very back and were fighting the droopy eyelids haha and then some guy walked up
and said hey you two come with me. So we stood up and walked with him right to
the front row and then an apostle walked right through the doors haha it was
so sweet. It was Dallin H. Oaks
who spoke to us!
Another spiritual experience was
me and my companion got one of our TRCs (actor investigators) to commit to
baptism this week and it was the weirdest thing to get so happy over something
so fake haha. I am so excited to have that real experience in the field even
though they might be few and far between I am still so excited!
I cant wait to have a killer time
in Arkansas, I love you all have an awesome week.
