6/16/2014..Happy Baptism!!
6/16/2014..Changes!!!!
Things are going incredible! I found out I'm getting
transferred this coming Wednesday! BUT, I'm only going across the street. Haha!
I'm going from where I am at to another stake, the Alameda Stake in Pocatello
and I am SO EXCITED! I mean, It's kinda bittersweet having to leave but Heavenly
Father has great things in store for me, I know it!
Overall, this week was incredible! I actually don't have too
much time but I'll try and get in the good stuff! SCOTT HUFF WAS BAPTIZED!! It was
absolutely incredible! A member in one of our wards, Jordan Allen baptized him!
It went fantastic!! Also, we had an investigator come to the baptism! . His
wife is a LA member and they are SO sincere and wonderful. We got to do some
service for them this past week as well pulling weeds so just because I'm not
in Moses Lake doesn't mean I'm missing out on that! haha! Overall, it was a fantastic
experience, Scott was super happy and all is well. :) What else happened......
oh! We had a Zone Training and it was awesome! very spiritually uplifting!
Lately, I've been studying the Book of Mormon more and it has made such a
difference. :) That Book is not only true, but so incredible! Spiritually
uplifting and beautiful and fantastic! When we let it into our hearts, thus
allowing God to impact us through it, we will find greater happiness, greater
hope and greater knowledge that God loves us. :) My goodness, sometimes, I just
don't want to stop reading!
:) Oh man! Wanna hear
a crazy story?! We were playing basketball this last Pday and I ran into somebodys knee with my thigh and man oh
man.... it didn't feel good! It was kinda not so comfortable for me throughout
the week BUT I'm gonnna push through! Also, we got to give a man a blessing
before he went into surgery. He is a LA member but has a really sincere heart. Wonderful
things are in store for him. :) Also, we went on splits this past week! Elder
Bertoch went and visited this incredible family that
we have the opportunity to teach and actually extended the Baptismal Invitation to them! They accepted! They don't have a baptismal date to work toward but in the future, definitely. :) I went and visited a woman named Ruth. Her son died not too long ago and she has a really sweet spirit. It went well! :) It was really cool to go on splits too! Appearently, when Elder Berotch visited the Mills, she told them about a really cool experience! We had previously given her a blessing before she went into the doctor and turns out, she received the BEST blood pressure results she has ever had! before her and her husband went in, she asked him, "If this works and my results are the best they've ever been, will you get baptized?" Haha! She's like the 3rd member of our companionship!

Haha! Also, as I said
before, I am getting transferred! My new companion has been out about 17
months. His name is Elder Adkins and he is fantastic! I'm super excited for this
new experience and opportunity to serve! I love life! I love being a missionary
and I love you all!! :) Overall, the week was
fantastic! Cya all soon! :)
fantastic! Cya all soon! :)

6/9/2014 This week in pictures....
I got to go to the Idaho Falls Temple for the first time!!! Man... it was incredible!! This is Brother and Sister Olsen! He is a returned missionary who served in Canada, studying to be a Dentist at ISU and has gone out with us quite a few times in the past! They just had a baby girl recently too!! anyways, it was beyond incredible. :) The Temple is such a treasure and a privilege to have upon the earth and the convenience that we have to attend? AMAZING. :) We truly are a blessed people! :
Aaron got baptized!! It was such a privilege to be there at the baptism and to have been a part of his journey. :) We got to travel up to Blackfoot for it! Teaching him was such an incredible experience. Truly, he was and is a great example of humility and following the spirit. HOORAH FOR ISRAEL!!!
This is Kyle Andersen! He is in training in San Diego to be a NAVY Seal!! Crazy, I know! But, he was in town for 2 days and is good friends with someone in one of our wards and while he was up here, wanted to be baptized! He got everything taken care of in San Diego and we had the privilege of being a part of his baptismal experience and confirmation here in Pocatello! He was so sincere and apparently, the spirit had been working on him since high school! It's never too late and there is always hope!

NAVY Seal and has told us many AWESOME stories! Haha! Overall, the wedding was an awesome and interesting experience! They plan on being sealed in the Reno Nevada Temple in the future! Whoo!

6/2/2014..Zone Conference,Cleaning and exercising
Rest assured, we are having lots of success! :) this past
week, we set lots of awesome goals for June and also, we had a Zone Conference!
It was so much fun! :) We were also able to commit 2 of our investigators to be
baptized! Praying and hoping for them! :) Also, we might be getting some new
exercise equipment in our apartment! There is a family in one of our wards that
wants to get rid of it and they offered it to us. Now we just have to figure
out how to get it to our apartment! haha!
Also, we got to give a blessing to a less active man in one
of our wards. He feels like the whole world is coming down on him and he just
needs to know that God is there for him. It was a really spiritual experience
and I'm super glad that I got to be there for it. :) Also, we did a deep
cleaning of our apartment today and that place is looking great!! WHOO! Mmm.... what
else..... the exercising and healthy eating has been going great! It's weird
doing it really early in the morning because back home, I'd always work out in
the evening! BUT, I'm getting used to it. Another Elder told me, "it's
better to be sore than sorry" and that's kinda been my theme lately. ;)
Also, it has been so sunshiny and beautiful here! Lots of sunscreen! ;) Also, Aaron is getting baptized this coming Friday
in Blackfoot and we get to go there! Both Elder Bertoch and I are part of the
program and we are very excited to be a part of it! Also one of our investigators, is getting married this coming Saturday AND
we get to go to the temple on Wednesday!!! Man..... this week is going to be so
fun! It's going to be a great kickstart into June! Overall, I'm doing really
really well! :)
