La obra

Another great week in the work of the lord. It was a week with a lot of big things that took place. Were kinda in a crazy day right now. Were up in Tucson because I had a doctors appointment so we changed our preparation day and we went to the temple which was awesome. Were currently outside of top golf. Its gonna be a busy day so I'll keep it short.

This week was really awesome, we saw lots of success with the people were teaching and had many great lessons. The lord blessed us with energy on the bikes and we saw many miracles of being on the bikes! The Gil family surprised us at church which was an awesome surprise. They came to hear elder Midyette and I speak and were super nice and said that we did a good job and went and found us before they left to say goodbye. Such awesome people here prepared by the lord! 

We also had elder uchtdorf come to our mission which was so awesome to be able to hear the power and testimony of an apostle of the lord. He had a powerful testimony and bore witness of his relationship to the lord Jesus Christ, something I will never forget. He displayed his power and preisthood and the dignity of his calling in how he addressed us instructing our mission on exactly what the lord needs us to do to help the people of Tucson and nurture our own testimonies in the beautiful restoration of the Gospel. 

I am loving every minute of my life (even biking up a big hill on the bikes) because of the knowledge I have of the love God has for me, and every single one of us! Have an awesome week and do all you can to find the truth and knowledge the restored gospel brings! The truth is there but it takes action on our part, so act!

The miracle of Golf

 Dear family and friends,  We had a really great week this past week! We worked really hard and made a ton of contacts with people in our area and saw a lot of cool tender mercies and miracles! Elder Torgerson and I have been trying out a new style of contacting this past week and it's been really awesome. We put a different contact in for every 15 minute period during our day. Some take longer, some are shorter but it allows us to get in with some people we have not seen for quite a while.  This past week we also went golfing with Tommyee's husband David. We got special permission from our mission President to go and play with him! As many of you may know I love to Golf and so does David so it worked out and we went and played 18 holes at the course in their neighborhood. It was the first time in my life that I've actually played 18 holes and it took a lot longer than we had anticipated it was going to. We were diligent that as soon as we got done we changed and went to ...

Last Haul

  Well I'm pushing into the last week of my mission. It is hard to believe that this really is the end. It doesn't feel all too different from everything else that I've done these last 14 months, it just feels like the end of another transfer. I would be lying if I said I was not looking forward to seeing family and friends, some of which I have not seen for nearly 3 years which is crazy to think about. I have cherished the time I've had to serve as a missionary and I'm super grateful that I was able to return to be a full time missionary despite the obstacle of the pandemic. I welcome what comes next and I really don't have too much of an idea as to what lies ahead of me at this point. There is a lot that still is up in the air but I know that the Lord will provide.  This past week was good. Fairly normal. We were able to teach some lessons. Meet some new people. Share the gospel with others and we had some great meals provided for us.  We actually had the oppo...

Ya me voy

  Dear family and friends, I received news this past saturday that I will be leaving Sahuarita and Elder Mortenson and heading back up to Tucson. We have 4 tucson zones in the mission and this will be the last one I need to serve in, east zone. I'm excited to for the change and am very optimistic about the area! I was only here for 6 weeks in this area and with elder Mortenson during his training so it will be sad to leave it all behind. This has been one of my most challenging transfers of my mission thus far and the Lord really refined and humbled me in the process, he has a way of doing that to us. I have never pleaded more for heavenly help for something beyond my own personal needs than I have in this past transfer. It truly brought me down to the lowest depth of humility and made me stand back multiple times and say, "I dont know what to do, take my hand and guide me." Each time that I was humble enough to utter that phrase the Lord guided everytime, sometimes it wa...
