Do you remember the 21st night of September?

I will because it snowed on the 21st of September. It wasn't fun. I'm realizing that depending how long I stay here depends on how much snow I get and how cold I am. I've needed a jacket the last 5 days because it was in the 40s and 50s. It's only going to get worse and I can wait for it.  Other things that happened this week! We had our friend Ono go to church and taught him a lesson there! We gave him a Book of Mormon and some members bore their testimonies to him! He is progressing well but doesn't understand English that much.  We also talked to one of our Bishops about his ward and he's on fire! He loves missionary work and is doing all he can to help us with the people we are teaching in his ward! It's great!  Yesterday I went up to Thayne for the day and got to spend the night in their barn house. We split wood from 10 to 12:30 that day and I had to do it in pros pants and a borrowed t-shirt. We got it done and I remember how fun it is to split wood! 

Good Morning!

I'm 100% sure it is still morning for all of you. Now I don't know if all of you will read it in the morning, so here is the title for you who do! Good afternoon! Okay, it has been a busy week this last week. Elder Garcia and I have been working our socks off gathering Israel. It is going fairly well! We have found quite a few people this last week and are hoping to progress them! No one is close to baptism yet except for Tui'ono. He's from Samoa and has come to church every week in the YSA branch. We need to finish teaching him everything so we can baptize him but he's so close!  I have seen the success that comes through comp unity and faith and works. I have usually had comp unity on my mission but either Faith or works have usually lacked. One of the Zone Leaders said that faith and works makes this whole work even possible. I've looked back at that a lot this week and tried to exercise my faith and put forth good works to bring to pass the immortality and e

Afton for 2!

Hey everyone, sorry for no email last week, I was waiting to send one after I got transfer news! I'm staying in Afton for another transfer and getting a new companion! His name is Elder Garcia and he's from Arkansas! He's super funny and we get along really well! This area is just a roller-coaster! We used to have 4-5 potentials for this month and now we have like 2. It has been sad to see the situations that make the people we are teaching wait to get baptized. We are doing our best and being diligent while on the Lord's errand and we hope to see miracles! This area is amazing and I can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for it!
