Виглядаючий схожий на в'язень 🐸 -- (Looks like a prisoner 🐸)

Hey everyone! I LOVE YOU ALL! AND SO DOES JESUS! We have had a wonderful week out here in the promised land. - It was our first week with our new branch president (Elder Orlov was the previous branch president), and he did and AWESOME JOB! Missionaries have been the branch president here for a long time now, and we finally have a member as president, Президент Роть. He's the man, and our first sacrament meeting with him as president was so spiritual. We got to sing, which was the first time I'd done that in sacrament meeting since I was in Dallas! It felt like a movie with a perfect ending haha. - We had exchanges this week, and we got to have two absolute beast mode missionaries with us over here in Lviv. Elder Fetzer came with me, and Elder McKnight went with Elder Orlov. It was a great exchange! I would rate both of those guys a solid 10 out of 9. They're super funny and we had a great time working with them. - Микола just up and decided that he was going to live the word of wisdom before we even taught him about it. So that was awesome. I absolutely love that guy! - Олег received a confirmation from the Holy Ghost that he NEEDS to get baptized. It was so cool when he told us about it! He's working hard to prepare for baptism, and I'm so excited for him. He's the man! - Файрад said he liked the Christus statue on my lockscreen and asked me to send it to him. And then we told him about Gospel Library and he was like "I NEED IT", so now he has it. I can't wait for his baptism! - Василь is the best haha! He lives in a little village outside of Lviv, and he is always begging us to come. We can't really, because it's pretty far away and there's only one train a day over there. However, he is hyped about his baptism, and we're going to plan a day to go to his town to visit him before he comes to Lviv to be baptized. I love him, I'm claiming him as my Ukrainian grandpa. - Please pray for Коля and Дар'я! They are both praying about being baptized, and we're really hoping for both of them! They're awesome, and I'm sure they will receive an answer to their prayers. God is really good that way))) - so the ) sign means :) to Ukrainians. Pretty cool huh? I have a scripture that I've been sharing with everyone and their dog recently, so I figured it ought to stay with the theme and share it with y'all. Honestly, I might have already done so, I don't really remember haha. Ether 12:41 = And now, I would commend you to seek this Jesus of whom the prophets and apostles have written, that the grace of God the Father, and also the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost, which beareth record of them, may be and abide in you forever. Amen. GO SEARCH FOR HIM, BECAUSE HE IS SEARCHING FOR YOU! I love you all so much. I also heard about the new Spiderman movie that's coming out soon. Please go watch it for me. All the love in the world, - Старійшина Хорслі Also my head is completely buzzed now, and a member told me I looked like a prisoner in my striped sweater (hence the title). Pics next week haha! - Exchange with Elder Fetzer at Микола's house - Construction but the church with Elder Orlov - We were in a lesson and I saw this socket and I almost died laughing haha, I had to sneak a photo - War memorial - Lviv is pretty and I really like it here haha

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...
