WEEK 84: Achievement Unlocked: God answers prayers

-

 Good morning good evening and good afternoon yall. 


This past week I was transfered out of my last area in Posorja. It was definitely the toughest sector I've had on the Mish but I'm super grateful for all the lessons I learned there 🙏 

Before transfers I had been praying for 1 of 2 things, to go back out to the península (the beach) with Elder Boyd or go to the guasmo with Elder Foutz. I pulled up to transfers and I don't know how but I got put with elder Boyd! 

Him and I both started the mission at the same time and haver served in the same zones for over 9 months of our missions and we lived together a transfer. To say I am super grateful for this transfer would be an understatement lol. 

This past week at general conference I really liked the talk that said we each need to find our personal, "Why". Why do we do the things that we do and what is our purpose in doing them? 

Our focus should always be on christ.

WEEK 63: Achievement Unlocked: The Book Of Mormon

  Yo wsg. This past week absolutely FLEW by. I literally have no idea how it's pday already.  My comp has been teaching me how to cook so this past week I bought some chicken and made my first healthy meal in the mission 💪 We found a new familiy this week and they all showed up to church after 4 days of teaching them! The mom is super awesome and already believes in the gospel and is telling her kids and husband that its true.  This past week I have developed a huge love for the Book Of Mormón. I'm not gonna lie, my whole mission I've kinda slacked on my study of the scriptures. I have watched conferences talks, book of mormon videos, read PMG, but none of them are good substitutes for ACTUALLY reading the scriptures.  This past week I prayed so that I could have the desire to read the scriptures and now, it's one of the only things I look forward to in my day.  I have been reading in Alma in the story of captain Moroni and wanted to share with you all this scr...

WEEK 82: Achievement Unlocked: I Lost My Suitcase on a Bus

  Good morning, good afternoon, ans good evening ☀️ This past wednesday I ended Intercambios with some elders that live 1 hour away from us in bus. I put my suitcase on the bottom part of the bus because it was too big to take with me up top. We get off the bus with like 20 other people and before I know it, the bus is gone with all of my stuff.  I had my personal scriptures in english, my clothes, my study materials, chargers, etc. Luckily, before I left the house I felt the impression to take out my wallet which had 80 dollars in it.  We went to the bus terminal and found out that there are over 50 buses that come and go every 15 minutes to the terminal here in Posorja and Guayaquil (Guayaquil is 2 hours away from us in bus) and if I didn't know the bus number it would be hard to find... I didnt even know the bus had a number on it so I told her we didn't know the number.  We then texted the elders in Playas (30 minutos from us in bus) to check the terminal there t...

WEEK 8: Achievement Unlocked: The Ocean

  ¡Buenas todos!  This week has been more on the rough side, I'm going to be honest. Spanish is so tough. I am doing a good job learning words and sharing scriptures in my testimony. The Ecuadorians speak sooooo fast so it's hard to hear what they're saying but, with more practice and listening I hope I can learn fast.  We have also been teaching a lot of lessons and they are going good so far! We invited a couple people to church and most of them showed up, which was awesome. We also have been doing a lot of lessons with 2 members in our ward. They are both super awesome to teach with and they have been showing us where all the members in our ward live which helps out a ton. I don't know what they say half the time so I just smile and nod my head lol.  Today for P-day we went to a place called La Chocolatera which is on the very tip of the peninsula of Ecuador. It was so sick to see the ocean and we even saw some whales too. It was also cool to be able to hango...
