Week 16 Christmas Time…

Yo yo yo what's popping everyone!!!! This gonna be one of my shorter emails just cuz I got like no time.

This week we did Exchanges with the ZLs and the APs. My comp is the DL and we originally were planning on Exchanges with just the Zone leaders but the APs were in the area and wanted to run some Exchanges. I had the absolute time of my life. The Zls are some Dawgs and same with the APs. The one AP elder arave, played lacrosse at BYU for a year before he came out. Both the APs some Dawgs but I didn't get the chance to go out with the other one. Anyways I learned so much from him and the spirit that was there was just crazy! Hes such a good guy and we was runnin it like we've known each other for 10 years. The lord is really awesome and finds a lot of those little things that bring me lots of joy out here. So much crazy stuff happened that night it was so HYPE! We then all slept over at the ZLs and had 6 dudes in a tiny apartment. Then we woke up at 5 and played basketball which was so fun cuz out in Fort Payne (the area I'm in) the closest basketball gym is an hour and a half away. Our branch building don't got a gym so that was hype!

Lots of people are progressing and the work is going upward!! I love the gospel so much and truly am so blessed to be apart of HIS WORK.

Whenever life sucks yall just gotta turn to him fr. It really is so simple, if you turn to him, you will always, ALWAYS, recieve the help you need. Big emphasis on "need" because sometimes he gives us our answer or help and we don't like it cuz its not what we want to hear. But it's only because we cannot see the bigger picture. 

I didn't take any pics so here's a pic of me and Lil Ivie from last week

Go tell your mom you love her rn!!!

So we roll up to shyannes crib and elder pay gives a fire home blessing and she started crying during it which was so sick! We set an appointment to meet with her again, long story short she called us literally a minute after the lesson crying and said to not come back to her house. We came to the understanding her husband was the cause of this and made her do it cuz she was so down and was getting so hyped. But oh well hopefully she'll change her mind We've been teaching David for a little bit and he's on date for the 29th and he's your typical constru...

Week 5 General Conference and Reassignment!…

What up homies!!! Hope all is well with you all! This was my first ever general conference where I watched all the sessions, took notes, and had questions beforehand! Let me tell you, I have been missing out on a lot of opportunities to feel the spirit and receive revelation from conferences growing up. Don't worry mom that's not your fault, you tried to get me to do all that I was just too stubborn to do so ahahah. I seriously was so overwhelmed by every single person that spoke. It's insane like they just be up there spittin straight doctrine. One of my favorite quotes that stood out to me was from Elder Jorge F. Zeballos and it says "Let us leave judgement in the Lord's hands and those he has commissioned and be content to love and treat each other the best we can." I truly love that a lot because it is not up to us to tell people where they are going wrong or what they can do better or judge them in any way. We all gotta fr just take a step back, think wha...
