Training

 Alright, so we got transfer news, and I'm going to be training a new missionary! I'm super pumped and praying I raise him right, haha!!! Just going to imbue all my wisdom and spiritual knowledge into the fleshy tables of this young humble missionary's heart. I'm also really looking forward to see what I learn from him and his fresh perspective to the work. Should be quite the great growing experience for both of us haha....I'll try to refrain myself from bullying him, just kidding....

Also been practicing my IB with an Elder Kendall. He's fluent. Basically, you add the sound ib in front of every vowel sound. So like if I said, "I love this mission" itd be " IbI libove thibis mibissibion". Its hilarious hahahahahahha to do to people who can't understand what your saying. It's pretty despicable lol. 

Our friend Nick PULLS UP TO CHURCH WITH A FRESH WHITE SHIRT AND TIE. This brother told us he bought a suit for his baptism! He's an absolute king. I love him. 

Also, Lilian came to church and brought the whole family! Her husband came, and he said he learned a lot and is looking forward to coming next week (LET'S GO!) and both he and the 15 year old, participated in the classes tooooo. Like wut, that's hype!

Spiritual thought: Don't ever pass up an opportunity to show the power of God. In Alma 17:29 Ammon rejoices at the chance to show his power to those he worked with that they may believe all of his words. He knew he had the power of God with him. He knew whom he served. And we have that same power too!!! And that power grows as we honor our covenants, read our scriptures, go to church, say loads of personal sincere prayers, and go to the temple. And this isn't just some run of the mill, 2nd grade power. This is the flipping POWER OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD. Doesn't get more powerful than that! And this is something we have. So use it! Don't hesitate;) otherwise, you might miss a chance to show others the power of God and lead them to believe in your words. 

Anyways, I love y'all so much. I'm sad to see my blind companion go but that's life. 

Hurrah for Israel!!

-Elder Higginson

Fractured my foot?

  It's been solid. I might have fractured my foot last pday playing soccer. I swung so hard at the ball but hit Sister Vaughn's foot instead and smoked myself. It got all swollen and red and purple for a few days. But it was doing better! Enough for us to play spike ball as a district every morning for exercise lol. I've got no time. Photo dump

My dad got hit by a car?!?

Image
Phew!! What a week.  It was crazy. I got a text on Wednesday that my Dad got hit by a car while riding his bike to work. I was like GASP. He fractured a bunch of bones on the right side of his face and sinus, but he's okay thanks to the miracles of God. Like seriously, God was watching over him. Me and my comp immediately started pouring out our hearts in prayer for my dad. And he's okay! Thank you Heavenly Father that I can still see him during my life on Earth:) God is such a legend for that, haha! Spiritual thought: My mind took an eternal perspective this week because of what happened with my dad. It's crazy how fast something can happen, and it really made me realize how much I cherish my family. Family is EVERYTHING. It's literally what makes Heaven, home. Truly makes a person "think Celestial" when an accident happens. We are truly blessed having the knowledge of God's plan--don't take advantage of it!! Miracle lady: Found a really cool lady who

People passing out-->ZC training-->CAR hits comp-->God's will

  WOAH.  LIKE WOAH.  I MEAN WOOOOOOAAAAAH. This week has been crazy! So much has happened. First was coining on the military base. The sun was out and it was HOT! Someone passed out and fell straight on their face on cement and got reallyyyyy injured so they totally changed the coining ceremony. People were dropping like flies. We went to the graduates under one of the training facilities, and there was a HUGE FLAG.  CAR CRASH?!?!?! Yup, I went to Heritage, which is a biking area, and we were flying down a hill on the ride side and a HUMONGOUS RED.... Prius...SLAMMED INTO MY COMP.  Jkjk that was over exaggerated. But my companion is fine, just got sideswiped by it. We got all the information from them, and I pressured them into meeting with us at least once because they ran into my companion, lol. I'm all about finding those Nations, haha. The person driving was a kid who just had his permit and he didn't even signal. ELECT DUDE: Put a super cool man on date! First lesson was t
