IM OUTTA HERE! Week 6 Reporting live from the laundry room at 4 am

Whats up everybody! This week is almost over and with that my time here at the MTC is also coming to a close, which I couldnt be more excited about. Im so excited to get into the field and serve the people of Spain. 

Also another huge shout out to my Coaches and Brothers down at the Y, I hope everything runs smooth today for a big win tonight! I love all yall. 

Same old stuff this week. Learning more spanish, and continuing to teach others. We had a really cool experience this week. Me and Elder Hurst got the opportunity to interview one of the new investigators (or TRC) and got to know him and then delivered a spiritual thought which was really cool. Thank you all for the packages and the love from home as well. I also received a haircut from a couple fellow elders that actually turned out super good haha,​​​​ As you can see from the pictures. Ive been sick for a couple days so im hoping that it goes away before we leave on monday. Its hard to not get sick here because if one person has something everyone gets it. Weve also been having a little fun in class with our brackets, haha check out the picture of the super hero one. Theres also a pic of our entire district with our two teachers in the middle. Its been great to know all of them, and theyre all gonna kill it. 

I know that through faith in Jesus Christ all things are possible. 

I love all of you

What's up what's up its your favorite door to door salesman out  here doing the Lords work! (If you never saw the Snapchat series I'm sorry you missed out) This week was killer, we straight grinded. We've started a lot of new things lately and there are about to be some changes, were just laying that solid foundation right now. This week we taught a little, our investigator Jenny is practically a member we're just waiting till the week after General Conference to have the baptism. Our boy Juan is doing good, after his contact with missionaries in 92 he hasn't had much more but little by little were watching the spirit change his heart and pique his interest. If Anyone knows of some guy with the last name of Sampson thats from Alpine and is in his 40s, give him my numb.... uh email. Haha it would be cool to reconnect him and Juan after 25 years. Everyone is still pretty basic and we've started to work with new people so more updates coming soon!  This...

January 28, 2019 Week #79 Spain Madrid Mission "Who's yo daddyyyy/ Welcome to my fortress / Baptism "

Image
Good Morning U.S.A.!!  Well what can I say, last week was Christmas and we had a good call with the fam. Now were looking down the barrel of 2019.  It's been a couple great weeks here in Badajoz, there is a ton of potential and we have a couple of friends that are progressing well and will soon have baptismal dates. The branch is great, I've eaten lunch in our flat a total of 4 times since I've gotten here haha. And apart from that they are all incredible when it comes to the work, and we had a really inspiring class from President Vallecio on the changes in the church and how it's going to help the members and the missionary work!  If you can't tell I am excited on a whole other level to get the work going!  This past week we spent Christmas in Cáceres with the other Elders and a matrimony the Hubbs. It was great and we ate pretty similar to a normal Christmas which was fantastic! Then we came back and put some work in. In one day our di...

The Week of the Elect Week #9

Image
This week was absolutely nuts! So some back story, every since I've gotten here in the mission I've told my companion that we need to find the Lord's "elect"  D&C 33:6 And even so will I gather mine elect from the four quarters of the earth, even as many as will believe in me, and hearken unto my voice.  D&C 29:7 And ye are called to bring to pass the gathering of mine elect; for mine elect hear my voice and harden not their hearts; Because me being fresh out of the mtc I was gung-ho on taking care of business. My companion gets hung up on every single person, so I constantly reminded that we need to find those that are ready to except the gospel. This week our hard works came to fruition. We finally were able to meet and teach a member referral Christina. So last week when she showed up for her appointment her and the member were in an all out like screaming match so that was super scary but it all calmed down. We had already set a baptismal date wi...
