Flying through the week

  Welp. That was fast. Still not used to mission time and how fast it goes. Well to sum up everything in a few words... it's been rough. The work has been slow but hey, we still working and we are still trying, keeping in mind that God's timing is always perfect timing. Just doesn't always seem that way to our imperfect minds. This week I gave a talk in church. I chose to speak about Christ-like love and how the scriptures describe how disciples of Christ should love. John 13:34-35 says "That [we must) love one another; as [Christ] have loved [us]... [and] by this shall all men know that [w]e are [his] disciples." So we must love as Christ loved. And what did he do? He  loved  everyone like they were his very best friend,  shared  His gospel with them, and  invited  them to come unto Him. And that is what he expects us to do as disciples of Christ. I could go on explaining how I explained to my ward how we could do it better, but I think we all can figure that out

Please pray for us that we may be better guided to those who hunger for the truth!! The good part, though, is that Élder Salisbury is just awesome and a ton of fun to work with!! His head is literally just a library of scriptures for almost any situation. He's from Queen Creek Arizona and loves to sing and all things musical so we have had fun sharing musical talents we have. Speaking of talents. Talents are really interesting. Each

Cambios

Boy will I tell ya. These last two cambios with Elder Watson have flown. Literally has felt shorter than my first Cambio in Genova. And guess what! I'm staying another!! And to be completely honest ... I'm stoked!!! I'm so excited to lead the area and show my comp all the people we need to help and to find the people that hunger for the truth, the white field that is ready to harvest. Speaking of my new comp... I'll  be receiving an Elder named Elder Salisbury. I know just bout nothing about him but am stoked to get to know him and to get to work. This week I have had something on my mind. Y de hecho today I came across the scripture about what I was thinking. Marcos 8:35 Porque el que quiera salvar su vida la perderá; pero el que pierda su vida por causa de mí y del evangelio la salvará. This scripture reminds me of what obedience does for us. This scripture speaks of giving all your life to God so that He can give you a better one. But I also like to view this scriptu
