November 19, 2018 - Midvale, UT

Time is going too fast! 2018 is almost over!

Alright, so this week has been incredible. It was sad to say goodbye to Elder Beaman, but he is doing so good now! My new companion is Elder Rhodes from Florida! It has been great to get with him and get doing some amazing work. 

Tuesday we worked with some maps a senior couple made for us, and found tons of new people that are open to meeting with us! Wednesday and Thursday, the theme was the same, just finding prepared person after prepared person! 
Friday after some responsibilities in the morning, we finished out the evening working with some individuals that had moved. Someone I taught in my last area moved into the zone, so I went to see if I could help them get baptized! Then, we talked to another investigator who decided she needs to get baptized soon! Plus she has 3 kids, and her fiancĂ© has 3 kids, and they all need/want to be baptized! Plus, we already have another 4 people getting baptized in December, plus another guy who is also hoping for it as well! It is incredible to see how many people are just opening up to the Spirit, and desiring to follow Jesus Christ. This week has been full of miracles, and we are excited to find more. 

One final miracle: We had our first lesson with a young man on Sunday, and about 3 minutes into the lesson, he said that he wanted to get baptized really bad. We asked why, and he said he wants the Spirit to be with him always! He and his mom decided that he can get baptized in January. Then, in the closing prayer, he prayed that he would be able to get baptized soon! This was our first time meeting him, some members had set this up for us, and it was amazing to see his humble faith! 

Thanksgiving should be fun this week, we have one dinner set, plus about 6 more to pop into! The goal is to not eat too much!

November 5, 2018 - Midvale, UT

My week since Wednesday has been pretty solid.
The temple on Halloween night was the greatest thing ever. Such a great experience. Thursday, we had our zone conference, and I learned so much about putting off the natural man and yielding to the enticing’s of the Holy Spirit. 
Friday we worked super hard, and we were able to help a family that was baptized recently move into an basement apartment of another person we are teaching. So many new opportunities are presenting themselves! 
Saturday we got to do a mini blitz of some elders area. It was great to not only be working in my area, but also help some missionaries struggling to find. It is a great success! 
Sunday we had so many people come to church. Then we were able to visit some key people, teach some great lessons, and give a blessing. It is absolutely a wonder at how much God's hand is in this work. Truly He loves each one of us, and wants to bless us. 
I love you all very much!

P.s. we just did another donut falls hike, once I have the good pictures, I will send them over, probably next week. Here is a picture from Halloween/Temple Trip I just got.

October 31, 2018 - Midvale, UT

So this last week and a half has been pretty good. Elder Beaman goes home the 13th, so we are working hard to finish strong for him. It is great, and we are seeing miracles almost every day (well, every day miracles, big ones almost every day).
We had about 7 people we wanted to help get baptized this month. It didn't work out, but all of them have selected upcoming dates and weekends to be baptized, be sealed, and we are extremely excited for November, and even December. Truly the Lord is hastening His work! It is incredible!

I'll have some pictures on Monday, crazy day with it being temple now, and then lots to do after a long week of work. 
Love you all!
