Off to Everett Washington

 

IAORANA

Hello everybody i am going to keep this short. I would love to talk to any of you guys before i leave on tuesday shoot me an email if you wanna talk! But yeah i finished mtc last week, so this week i didnt really have much to do. I did lots of service, and also went through the temple. The temple was so amazing i missed being able to go every single week. The spirit is so strong and i cant wait till i have the opportunity to go back.

I'd like to share one quick thought with you all. Today i met with the missionaries in my ward. And they shared a message about charity with my family. And it was so powerful and so true. They talked about how we can show charity for the people around us. And the easiest way for us to do that right now is to serve. And it doesnt have to be anything big, just a tiny note could change someones day. So i challenge every person that reads this to find a way to serve someone every day this next week! I love you all so much, and so does your father in heaven!

MTC DONE

well whats up everyone. yes this is my first email 2 months after i started mtc haha, but hey i am finally finished with the mtc. and let me just tell you MTC was so awesome. Yes at some times it was hard, but i have never felt the spirit so much and learned so much in 9 weeks. Thanks to my awesome district, and my awesome companion.

LANGUAGE- wowza let me tell you neither of these languages (french and tahitian) came easy for me but i can say that with lots of hard work and prays the lord is always right there to help you as long as you put in the effort. But after 6 weeks if french i felt like i had it down pretty well. Then we started tahitian which is what i would say the exact opposite of french and ever word looks the same, but i have come to love both of these missions very much and am so excited to spread the word of god in them both.

REASSIGNMENT- well for those of you dont know i am assigned to Everett Washington leaving on the 29Th! i am SO excited to go out into the field.

GOLF-well i have officially become an old man in the mtc. the funnest thing that i doif golf haha. But i have actually loved been able to do it. I have played with my dad a lot, even got to play with my companion once. But played at least once a week with my golfing buddy Vanem Finlinson who was also in the mtc for 9 weeks with me haha.

yeah i dont have much more to talk about. IF you dont already follow me on facebook you should i post occasional spiritual thoughts or parts of my testimony. I will just share a quick thought with you that helped me through the mtc. And that is that with god all things are possible. SO never give up. god is always are your side, he is just waiting for you to extend your arm and he will be there to lift you up

P.S. if anyone wants to talk in French or Tahitian message me haha. or is you just want to talk in general i would love to hear from you all.
