Recognizing the HOLYGHOST

This week was really awesome. Lots of lessons and opportunities to teach new people and say a lot of growth with the people we're teaching and miracles from Gods hand in his work! We had two lessons with the Gil family this week. We taught the plan of salvation this last Tuesday and our mission president and it was one of the most spirtual lessons of my mission! They have such a great desire to learn and come closer to Jesus Christ through his restored Gospel and Church! IT was an awesome opportunity to teach with President Browning and to learn from him and see how he teaches and one of the biggest things I noticed he did was that he recognized the Holy ghost and took about 15-20 minutes and told them about recognizing the holy ghost and used the example in John chapter 14 of how the holy ghost is literally the tool that God left to us to know all truth after Christ left the earth and it is by these means that we can recieve all truth and we've seen the fruit within them of them recognizing the fruit of the Church of Jesus Christ and finding the truth. I have seen the holy Ghost testify so much truth to me on my mission and reveals so much truth and knowledge unto me while serving in his work! I love the holy ghost and the promise that God gives unto us that he will show us all truth of all things! It was  great week. we got put on the bikes this week so that's been fun and then I also talked in church and it was really good and I talked about True desciples of Jesus Christ and what it means to be a True desciple of Christ. It's interesting that the definition of Desciple is someone that believes in and shares someones teachings. Thats what we are to Jesus Christ if we want to be considered his disciples! we're called to share these things with everyone and they can accept or deny this message but we need to share it with all! It was a good week. 


Thanks for all the support and love! have a good week!

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...
