Ferret Friends

Hey everyone! This week was one of the absolute fastest of my entire mission. Last night I looked at my companion Elder Gregerson and I was like "what the heck where did our week go?". The time just flew! We met a lot of new people, and we taught a ton of lessons. We were also able to put our friends Danniel and Yasmine on baptismal date. Please keep them in your prayers! Other highlights for the week = - Some random guy named Mycool stopped us so that he could talk to us, and when we tried to give him a Plan of Salvation pamphlet he struck a deal with us saying he would take it if he could play us a song. Then he played 4 songs. It was pretty epic, the songs were good 😂 - This gang of little kids on bikes were in the front of an apartment complex when we walked in, and they wanted to ride their bikes with us. They directed us to the apartment we were looking for, but we got to mob around with this huge group of kids for 20 minutes while we looked for the apartment. - I mad...

I'M GETTING A KID

Hey everyone! Sorry this email will be so short! Today was crazy! I'm getting transfered, but I'm just going down to whitewash the Southern half of our ward because they're moving the sisters who were there out. I'm also going to be training a new missionary! I'm super excited to meet my "kid", and we're going to get some good work done down there. I will still be in the same ward, which is way funny because it will be my 5th transfer in this ward. I pretty much live here now, so they should just give me a calling already. Also, Elder Ames and I found an awesome lady this week named Shirley who wants to get baptized! Please keep her in your prayers! Spiritual thought for the week: John 17:3 = And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. We can experience life eternal starting here on this earth! All we have to do is come to know our Father in Heaven and His son Jesus Christ. We do thi...

Hey everyone! I honestly don't really know what to write in this weekly, so I guess I'll keep it short. Things were good this week! We got a ton of media referrals, which was super great. I think we had 4, and we were able to schedule lessons with them all. We also had some great lessons with our friends this week. The work is starting to roll out here in Richardson! We have a guy we've been teaching named Brian who's a absolute stud. He came to church on Sunday and after he told us that next fast Sunday he was going to go up and bear his testimony. I love that guy! He loves the Book of Mormon and has been reading a lot. Keep him in your prayers! Transfers are coming up this next week, so we will see if I'm going to a new area or not. I've been here for 4 transfers in my first area, so I may very well be moved, but my mission president loves to leave people where they are. We will see! I'm just hoping that whatever God wants for me, I can align my will with...

Hey everyone! This was a great week! We had a lot happen, so I'll just hit the highlights. - Our friends Kym and Rodney are on date for baptism now. Please keep them in your prayers! - We found an Arabic Book of Mormon and gave it to our friend Zaid and he is stoked to have it! He's been inviting his friends to meet with us and come to church with him. He's a beast! - We received a media referral under the name of Death Metal last week, and we totally thought it was a joke. Turns out his real name is Brian and he's really interested! We've been teaching him and he absolutely loves what we have to say. - We helped two members move out this week, so now we're in tight with not only our Elder's Quorum presidency, but the rest of the guys in the Garland 3rd ward as well. - We got bashed by a Buddhist guy during our weekly Donut Saturday tradition. That was really weird I really didn't understand what was happening. - We got soaked by rain during our ride h...
