The Worlds Spicest Ramen 6/29/2020


Tuesday nothing worth mentioning happened.
 
Wednesday we read Nephi's vision of and explanation of the tree of life with M which is one of my favorite visions. We had a couple other lessons with members which went pretty well.

Thursday we had district council. We talked about our reasons for coming on a mission and why we are staying even though we are quarantined and things are different. In the evening we made chicken Alfredo which turned out pretty good. Then we had a lesson before we went and had a lesson in person with K. We talked about the Plan of Salvation and made fun of my awful drawing skills. When we got back we watched Elder W and G try the spiciest ramen in the world. Elder G finished his but Elder W could only take 2 bites.

Friday morning we had a meeting with the Senior couple missionaries (the S) which was nice to see them again since it had been a while. We had some lessons and made some fried rice and pot stickers (see picture below) which were great. I also played Elder F in Stratego and won (it was his first time playing).

Saturday we helped a lady move. They had a sword so naturally we took pictures with it. We came back and had a lesson with a recent convert and talked about the Atonement of Jesus Christ and it's enabling power to change us which was great. We then didn't have anything else going on so we did a deep clean of our apartment since we had been slacking on cleaning our apartment a little.

Sunday we went to 2 church meetings and those were nice. Our one lesson cancelled which was a bummer but we called a lot of people and set up a bunch of lessons for next week.

Miracle of the Week: After church we were waiting in the foyer and the person ushering people out came over and told us about someone that the missionaries had been teaching someone living with them. The problem was the person doesn't speak English




 very well but we were able to get in contact with the people that had helped translate for them before.

Quote of the Week: "[She's] excited to get up every morning and milk the chickens".

Pictures (hopefully in order):
1. a plant that I thought looked nice
2-3. a sword we found while helping someone move
4. district picture
5. homemade fried rice and (not homemade) potstickers

I'll be finishing up my mission tomorrow and will be flying home Tuesday. Things came together and J was able to baptized on Sunday. We were so excited and she was super ready to make that covenant. Have a great week and thanks for your prayers! Here are some pictures from the last couple weeks I know that Jesus is the Christ and He lives today. You can pray and learn that for yourself! Try it!

Just another email about conference 4/6/2020

Fun story: I just got a call and I have been called to be a District Leader (in charge of a small group of missionaries) and they added another stake to our area as well. Shout out to Elder K for being a district leader as well!! This week was pretty interesting. The beginning we we didn't have much to do and it was kinda miserable. However, the second half of the week we were like screw it, we are going to work hard because we have nothing else to do. As that happened, we saw that we were both much more happier and a lot less depressed. I we had more lessons with people as well as the chance to talk to some of my friends (y'all) about the church as well which awesome to see them and talk about what brings me happiness. General Conference was Saturday and Sunday and it was fantastic. Last General Conference we were told that this one was going to be not only memorable but unforgettable and boy did they pull out all the stops. Went our church building and watched ...

I Almost Suplex A Dog 3-29-2021

  General Conference is this easter weekend. Watch it. I promise you won't regret it. watch here at churchofjesuschrist.org   Miracle of the Week: This is at the front today hahaha. Further down in the email I will mention a couple lessons with people that we are teaching that went super well. I wanted to mention them there and talk about them here. In both lessons, we essentially did the same thing. We watched a short video about the suffering of Jesus Christ in His final days leading up to His death and resurrection. As we taught and testified of Jesus Christ's divinity, the Spirit was super powerful. One of the people is normally combative about what we teach but as we taught of Him, the person was calm and could offer nothing but amazement at what Christ went through for us. The other person as we testified started crying. I know that Jesus Christ lives today. I know He is the Son of God and knows us perfectly and individually. Listen the words of Christ this Easter as H...
