Dug Myself Into A Hole

 Wassupp y'all! Probably had my last week in this area. It's my 4th here, and it's my second with Elder Elkins....but I'm doing what I can to make sure I made a good impact here. 


We did service at a foodpark and dug a 3.5 foot hole for a telephone poll. It was hypeee cause the ground was hard and rocky, but we pushed through haha. Then we climbed in and took pictures. Literally dug myself into a hole. Can't complain, it was a fun service project. 

Had an awesome dinner message with a family in one of our wards. The dad took us aside and said that his family needed help with faith and we then proceeded to have an amazing, beautiful impromptu lesson on faith. We testified and read some scriptures and then Elder Elkins shared his experience with faith and BOOM the Spirit was thick in the room. It was so cool and you could FEEL it. And they could too. It was legit.

We had Zone conference and Elder Schmuttz came. He's the area president. And what really was impressed upon me both before ZC when I was preparing, and during ZC was how I can teach repentance in a better way. A way that I can show or inspire or simply just testify of.

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?!?

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

  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
