Exchange's

Heyo! Man this last week just flew by. We had exchanges on Thursday which was awesome! It was with the Zl's, and I got to go into their area which was super fun. I loved it so much, and we got to teach three lessons and have a dinner appointment with the Bishop of their ward. The lessons were awesome, and the people that we taught were so cool. I'm stoked to try and get a teaching pool like the Zone Leaders, because they're super busy all the time. Honestly I know it'll probably come back to haunt me at some point but I really do just want to be busy all the time haha. We're pretty busy this upcoming week though, so I'm super excited! We've had some slow weeks as we've gotten into the area, just because we split and area with the sisters and took the half where there were no people they had been teaching. We've been working hard to call people and find those who are interested in hearing our message. We can't knock on doors or go anywhere without an appointment, but we have gotten some appointments for this next week. I can't wait! All the people we have met are super cool. Please keep them in your prayers, especially Krannah, Richard, Consuelo, and Sierra. We also have interviews with the mission president tomorrow, and I can't wait! He's such an awesome guy, and I can't wait to talk with him. For my spiritual thought this week, I wanted to share an excerpt from a talk that I read. It says "In any of life’s travels, why would you ever turn away from the only Savior who has all power to heal and deliver you? Whatever the price you must pay to trust Him is worth it." I know that this is so true. Oftentimes things are hard and we do not know why, and we can either choose to be mad at the world or turn to our loving Heavenly Father. I can promise you that it is always worth it to turn to our Father in Heaven. He loves each of us infinitely and wants the best for us. We may not always understand why we're experiencing our trials, but we can always remember that God is there to help us. It is always worth it to trust in Him. Don't forget it. I love you all and hope your weeks are the best ever! Remember that Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ love you more than you could ever imagine! They're your number 1 fans! - Elder Horsley 1) What a coincidence that both my apartment and house are somewhere in the vicinity of St George. 2) THE BOYS 3) Dr Pepper Shake at Whataburger 4) Elder Jones is an icon

NOVEMBER IS WARM HERE

Hey you guys! So apparently I say I will get better at emails and then I turns out I only save 10 minutes to write these emails. Sorry about it. This week is going to be a short email, but this week was pretty great! I'll just hit the highlights! - We have had some awesome member meals this week, which has been great! We got fed by the Gonzalez family on Sunday which was so good! They don't speak English though, so that was quite the experience. I said lo siento a lot. - IT'S NOVEMBER AND 78 DEGREES! I'm loving it. I'm missing the snow, but I'm loving the sun. Since I can't ski, I think I prefer the sun right now. - We found a bunch of new people we're really excited about this week. We're hoping that they keep progressing! We have a ton of meetings set up for this next week, so we're crossing our fingers that they don't fall through. - Our friend Klaus came to church! He wore a Bane mask, so I could understand about 0% of the words he said...

I Knocked My Tooth Out

Image
Hey everyone! The title is completely factual. I was biking down a road pretty fast (because there is no reason to go slow on the Lord's errand) and I was thinking pretty deeply about a lesson we had that night. Next thing I know I was on the ground and missing a tooth. I got thwacked by a pole that had a box hanging of it in the middle of the sidewalk. Said pole had its metal box suspended directly at the head level of Elder Horsley. I'm all good though! I have some bruises, but it doesn't really hurt or anything. It just looks funny. It was absolutely epic. Then a guy ran across the street to "heal" me. He had a skull mask on and it was incredible. I'm all good now! There is no residual damage. Now for other highlights of the week! - Jeffrey is on date! We're so excited for him! He will be baptized at the end of May, so that's super exciting. - Freeman and Cornelius were both super stoked that the Law of Chastity was a thing, so that's always goo...

Тиждень Вісім - Week Eight

Image
Hey Everyone! It literally feels like it has been one day since I sent out an email, except it has been a week and now I'm sitting here at my desk typing on a computer and wondering what on Earth actually happened during the last seven days. I know a ton of stuff happened, but now everything in the MTC is blurring together and I don't actually know what was this week or last week or next week or anything haha. All I know is that my time in the MTC is almost done! Next week is my last week that I will spend in the MTC, which is just insane to me! At the end of next week, I will have been a missionary for TWO ENTIRE MONTHS, which does not feel real. I'm so happy for my 9 weeks in the MTC, because they have been awesome. Honestly, at first I was really worried about it and I thought spending two months in the MTC was going to be pretty brutal, but I wouldn't trade this time for the world. I have loved getting to know both of my companions, Elder Hasson and Elder Key, and I...
