Thanks for the Birthday Wishes, I met Elder Stevenson


Here is what I did for my birthday! Hi everyone hope you are having an amazing week!
Last week in review ! 

Last week was my birthday and it felt so weird because the whole day I didn't think of it until my companion said some thing about it. Thanks for all the happy Birthday wishes, I really appreciate it. 
 We went to Brigham Young's home and we took a took a tour it was my companion's first time there and it went really well. 

We went out to eat on P-day and we spent so much time that we didn't have time to email when we came home and I felt really bad 


Now for this week it's been a miraculous week, well first thing we were just waiting for people to come into the visitor center and all of sudden, Elder Stevenson walks in? We were like what ? And then he came with Elder Soares of the Seventies.  It was super cool and neat to talk to him. 
They gave talks and they were super dooper good! He talked about simply inviting people leads to teaching repentance and how we can build our lesson around a commitment it was fascinating to hear it from his perspective. 
I am grateful for all the invitations and fellowshipping I received that helped me to build my testimony. 

Another miracle that also happened is that a boy I have been teaching almost my whole mission finally got permission from his mom to be baptized, wow it had been a long awaited moment. We have it  this Friday and I was so excited for him. He is on 13 years old but there is a lot of maturity and a love of the Savior Jesus Christ that you can see through him. 

We also gave a talk to Sunday in sacrament meeting.  The talk was about the plan of salvation and gratitude, wow I remember when I was pretty new in the field, every time I have to talk I get super nervous but now I still get nervous but I am use to speaking to a large group of people and we are always talking so now I just worry that I say something that touches someone's heart. 

 
I don't know if many of you have gotten a chance to see the new Christmas initiative Light the World yet ? If you haven't I highly recommend it and invite you to be a miracle in someone's life this Christmas. I know that one of my favorite Christmas I remember is when someone did something so little and it had a huge impact in my life.  GO On And Light TheWorld. 

Our Mission is starting a Book of Mormon read challenge and we get to read the book of Mormon in our native language for a period of 68 days and we highlight every reference of the Savior it has. I am super excited for it and I am reading it in French for my first time and it is interesting to view it in a different translation. 

It's my favorite time of the year ! Love you all 
Happy Holiday( I don't know if am allowed to say that yet) :)

Week 2 - Praying and be a good boy, be a good girl!

Image
Every morning begins with a prayer, every lesson, meal, role play, in general everything begins and ends with a prayer here. I guess that is part of the reason why you can feel the spirit strongly here at the MTC. My roommates are all from around the world. There is Sister P from Ukraine, she is very stylish and likes working out with me at 6am. My companion Sister J is from the Marshall Islands, she is so funny and she is the most interesting person I have ever met. The other girl in the room is Sister Y and she's from Yap which is found next to Guam, which is next to Marshall Island which is next to Hawaii.  She is very sweet and she is always smiling. In my district we have a Sister called Sister K and she's from india she cracks me up and she always tells us jokes. What I love about the MTC so far is that you meet a lot of people from all over the world and everyone has one goal.  Which is invite others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restore...

First week in the Field!

Image
Best of both worlds.  First week out in the field. Well my companion is Sister S she is from a small town called Burns Oregon.  She's very cute and kind, she is the best trainer I could possibly ask for. It has been great with lots of sunshine. The sun is too much for me it gets to like 100 and something degrees and I feel like I am in an oven. The area where I am proselyting is called Santa Clara Heights and it is beautiful and the houses looks like it is from the movies. We are in charge of the Whole stake so it is kind of hard to go to all the sacrament meetings and we also get to do the visitor center half of the day so we only get to knock on door for  a couple of hours. Well we get the best of both world in a sense that people come to us in the visitor center and we go look for people also. It has been hard so far but Heavenly Father has been providing for us.  I had to bear my testimony so many times and attend a lot of sacrament meeting and meeting ...

Baptisms by Dad

Image
Wow, How time flies, Tranfers are today and my companion  and I are staying together. Its been six weeks already that we have been together, wow went too fast. Sister D is an awesome missionary and it is a lot of fun training. The part I enjoy the most about training is doing 12 weeks again [ training program for new missionaries I think ], there is so much to learn. The week has been Glorious, it ended with 3 baptisms that  took place saturday the 30th of September. I can't believe it is already October. But it was one of the best Baptism that I have ever attended. The Dad Tommie Got baptised and then confirmed and then ordained and then baptised his wife Rachel and then baptised their daughter Chiara. It was one of the happiest days on my mission. It's a blessing to see a family come closer to the Savior. We had to receive permission from our Mission President and our Stake president in order for that to happen [ for the Dad to baptise his family the same da...
