May 8, 2017 Deja Vu
Hey everyone! Hope you're all doing well well, this week was so good!
We were walking all week so we talked to a TON of people. We had a lot
of great success this week. We are working with his lady named Claire,
the missionaries have been working with her since 2012 and we invited
her to be baptized this week and she accepted! She is on date for the
27th so we are excited for her! Also another cool thing that happened
this week was we were walking down the street and this lady pulled up
next to us and asked us if we were church people, we said yes and then
she started tearing up and told us she wanted to talk to us, so we met
her down the street and talked to her for a long time about her life
and where she is at right now. She is having a lot of problems and
believes God placed us in her path to help her at this moment. It was
awesome, we are so excited to work with her and help her see how Jesus
Christ can make all of our burdens light. Well I hope you're all doing
great! I'm loving it out here! Have a great week!

May 1, 2017 Goodbye Labrum
Hey everyone! Hope you're all doing well! This week is transfers, I'm
staying in Lawrence for another 6 weeks with Elder Candland. Not much
is changing except Elder Labrum is going home this week :( I'll miss
that guy!
Clay and Dani were baptized on Saturday! I wasn't able to go to it
sadly but it's all good! I am so excited for them and their decision
to follow Jesus Christ.
It was a great week, we had stake conference and the bishop of our
ward got called to be the stake president. We also had Zone conference
and it was really good.
Elder Candland was sick for 2 days so we were in the apartment, it was
crumby... but hey it's gonna be a great transfer! Hope you're all
doing well, have a great week!

April 24th, 2017 Lawrence, KS,
Hello everyone! Hope you're all doing well, my week was really great!
We had a very successful week with finding and we were able to have
Erica and her family come to church! We met Kenneth this week, he is
Erica's fiancé, he is awesome. We played lots of basketball with him
this week and then taught him a lesson after. I sprained my ankle
playing in one of the games, I couldn't really walk for a couple days
but It's doing good now!
The members here are so great! There are so many great families here.
The Kema's are really awesome, they have a son who is going on a
mission in June and he's a great kid. Also the Schofields are awesome,
Brother Schofield is our ward mission leader and they are a couple
from Utah that both went to BYU, sister schofield played volleyball
for BYU. They had us over for dinner on Sunday night and it was a lot
of fun!
I got to give a talk yesterday in church and I spoke on living the
gospel in our lives. I went over Faith, Repentance, Baptism, Receiving
the gift of the Holy Ghost, and enduring to the end. I talked about
how we can use these things in our lives daily and weekly. I'm so
grateful for the restored gospel! I'm grateful we know what things to
do in this life to help us have peace in this life and salvation in
the life to come. The Book of Mormon outlines the doctrine of Christ
so purely and I'm so thankful god loves us enough to give us more of
his word to guide us in our lives.
I hope you're all doing well! Have a great week!
