MIRACLES!

Hey everyone! I hope you had an amazing week! I know we did! I'll just jump right into the highlights: - We went over to our friend Freeman's house on Tuesday to set up a lesson, and he ended up inviting us in. We got talking to him, and he goes "what did you say people need to do to become a member of the church again?". We told him "you just need to be baptized and be given the gift of the Holy Ghost", and then he said "OK can we do that today?" LIKE WHAT!!! It was so cool! We told him we still had more to teach him, but that he could get baptized in May. He's stoked about it! Please keep him in your prayers! - We had an awesome lesson with our friend Cornelius on Sunday as well. He's a stud! We taught him the Plan of Salvation, and he was like "wow that was the clearest anyone has ever explained that to me. I really like the way you guys teach, it's very good. There are no holes." It made us feel so good! Then we talked about baptism and invited him to be baptized, and he was like "heck yeah let's do it" so he's going to be baptized in May too! He's such a stud! - Our friend Danniel is still progressing towards baptism super well. He's making big changes in his life, and the change is huge. We can tell a serious difference in his demeanor, and we asked him what it was. He has been reading the Book of Mormon every day, and that's been the change! He's so cool, and I'm so excited for his baptism. - We have a lot of other friends who are doing great. God is working amazing miracles in our area. This is His work, and I'm so grateful that He can use imperfect tools (like myself) and still do His work perfectly. I'm trying to be better every day, and that's what God wants for me. I love being a missionary! There is nowhere I would rather be. I hope you all have the best week ever. Know that I love you, and even more importantly, that God and His Son Jesus Christ love you infinitely more than you could ever imagine! John 3:16-17 = For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. Jesus Christ is your Savior! Don't ever forget it! - Elder Horsley 1) MANGOS 2) I made a weird pancake and Elder Gregerson thought it was funny

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

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...
