Lord let me have this dance

 How's it going? This week was great because transfers were last Monday and I'm staying in Victor Falls for another 6 weeks. I'm super excited about that and to be here until May where I can finally see some more sun and mount Rainier. We saw some pretty daggum good miracles this week. One of them is a NEW Luis. Not the old one but one who seriously just randomly showed up as a person in our area Book records a couple weeks ago. He wasn't a referral or anything but we went and visited thinking we just had to have forgotten him or something, but we got there and Luis let us right in and we got to know him and teach him. A couple weeks ago we also did some service for a guy and his family, who lived across the street from a member family. And this week we saw them walking into church unexpectedly, which was super hype. Anyways the week was good and Elder Char and I are still grinding it out in Victor Falls. Still tons of potential here that we feel like we're just one small change away in how we're doing things to get there finally. I've been recently studying a little bit each day from the Teachings of the Prophet Joseph Smith. And there's been a lot of good things about God and his character. I'm thankfully blessed to have been raised with a knowledge of who my Heavenly Father is because, through the event of Joseph Smiths first vision alone, there was more knowledge given about God than what had already been known and taught for the previous couple hundred years. Through the First Vision and the restoration of the Gospel, we can understand God more and understand ourselves and who we are as his literal spiritual offspring. Without that understanding we can't understand ourselves. When we understand God, we know how to approach him, when we are ready to receive him, he is ready to receive us. A challenge for everyone is ask yourselves who you believe God to be. If the answer isn't a loving and merciful Father, then pray to him and ask specifically if he loves you. This has been a challenge we've had for a lot of our friends here in the good ol Enumclaw and we've seen great things happen with them. I love yall and Jesus Loves yall too. Horn Down Baby! Grind it out this week.

Let's Ride

  How's it rolling? Everything's going great out here in Bonney Lake. Punches are being thrown by the adversary currently. We have lost two friends, one passed away and another went to prison. Also an inactive member, who we've been helping out, his wife passed away as well. But that's strike 3. My companion elder Char and I are both just so pumped to do work right now. There's only so much we can control up here in Seattle so we're doing all that we can. We invited one of our friends to be baptized in which he kind of said yes but wants more time to strengthen his faith. I finally turned 19 years young this week as well. Also I don't think I ever mentioned this but one of our family friends is currently serving with me in Enumclaw area, Elder Jacob Murray. We went to high school together and we've always been close fanily friends so it's been kinda hype. Not much else besides that. Be dilligent. Jesus Loves you. Horns down. And keep grinding let'

Roll Tide Time

  What's good? It was a Roll Tide week this week. We played ultimate Frisbee for a district activity. I ain't gonna lie I'm definitely am not in the best shape of my life right now. Need to get some more cardio in for sure. Also my shot is broke right now, we aren't allowed to play pickup basketball currently and it's been a long time since I've played so it took awhile to knock off some rust on my shot. Our friends Sabrina and Luis are great peeps. Keep them in your prayers, Sabrina has come to know the Book of Mormons true but she's agoraphobic and is afraid of church. She's growing more and more courage so don't worry. Transfers are next week so this could be my last week in Victor Falls. Definitely gonna try and leave all I can on the sacrificial altar this week. It's a blood sweat and tears game minus the tears so far, but the blood for sure. Everyday is a battle no doubt. A battle verse evil, temptation, and the adversary. Not just for me o

Polynesian Love

  Hello everyone, twas a pretty average week but we also had transfers. My companion Elder Narayan is getting shipped to his original assignment in India, so I'm got a new companion his name is Elder Char. He's my third straight Polynesian companion. It's poly love out here, they can't stay away from me. I'm excited for this transfer Elder Char seems great and I've heard he's a great worker which is all we need in this area right now. It's gonna be a successful transfer no doubt, and I'm glad to still be in the Enumclaw zone and in this ward.  This place is beautiful. We've got a new progressing friend named Luis, who's 20 and is great. It's looking good with him and I'm planning on setting him on date for baptism next Sunday when we meet with him again. We're gonna see how it all plays out and continue with faith. I was on an exchange with an Elder named Elder Jones in his area Orting, and we decided to bike this super long steep
