Hey all! This week was a goodun. Not sure I'll have much to report but I'll try my best. (: last Monday we had a zone p day! It was pretty killer. We played loads of football (soccer) and it was a real good time. We've been playing football every morning with the other elders and it's been ultimately solid. Been ages since Ive played football so it's way fun to get back into it. 😎


This week we did a lot of finding. We were able to find a couple new people, but they all bailed on their appointments except one. We had a great lesson on prayer with him, he's not a fan of organized religion so we took it easy haha, and it went really good. His name is Ian, and he's happy to have us back soon. We had a lot of lessons with recent converts and less actives this week which went really good. There's really not any investigators to report on haha, but we working on it
so hopefully soon. (:

The sisters are working with this amazing girl named Morgan! She referred herself online on Tuesday, and they've been meeting with her everyday. She is going to be baptised, has already been to youth and everything, been to church. She is so solid. She's been playing football with us in the mornings as well which has been fun. She wanted a blessing so we met up with her and the sisters at the chapel last night. She asked me if I could give the blessing and it was an incredible experience. I felt the spirit so strong, and Heavenly Father had so much that he wanted to tell Morgan. She really felt the spirit as well, and was amazed that it came straight from Heavenly Father. So that was a great experience. (:

Today the whole district went on the dankest hike. It was the best of all the times. Will include pics. We've got the solidest district eva. 


Ive been thinking a lot about prayer this week. How everyone should truly search for God, where he is and who he is, and they can do that through prayer. Our will really needs to be in line with Gods will, and those wills can be brought together through prayer. We're never alone, and we can always turn to God in prayer. And he will always answer us. It might not be right away, but he will. Sometimes we might be praying for weeks for something, but get absolutely nothing. Maybe even just some help, and it might feel like your not getting it. But it will come. He won't leave us in the dark forever. I know God is there. That's fo sho. I love you all! Have a great week!
