WEEK 97 - Future Inmate

What is up everyone?! Hope your week went swimmingly, mine did. "Behold, I am the law, and the light. Look unto me, and endure to the end, and ye shall live; for unto him that endureth to the end will I give eternal life." Everyone, including me, is looking for light. I've noticed in my life and in other's lives that we often fall victim to darkness disguised as light. We look to things like lust or riches to lighten our lives, but in all reality those things leave us with more darkness than we started. I feel like I have experienced every possible emotion while on my mission, but I think one day I will forget almost all of them. But I know I will always remember the light. I am grateful for that and I would encourage everyone reading this to seek after true light. Forget everything I just said, you will remember only one thing from your mission: leadership assignments. Just kidding haha I love you all here are some great things from this week: - We had the most lit Chinese FHE ever and light was definitely there. Yuan Lin Cui shared how she had the most amazing experience being baptized that she literally didn't even understand nor care about the confirmation part. That was neat to hear I guess haha, I love her - We have a young child in our branch who I am convinced will be incarcerated in the coming days. He just chooses to spend his time causing the most chaos and destruction that he can. This week he decided to throw a wedding cake at Elder Carson and it was quite comedically humorous. I love him and will be visiting him in prison - The Chinese markets are legit holy ground I love them. There are literally zero rules inside, except you just have to leave the market having had a good time. I have gotten so tight with my hermanos in the back that I just give one of them a singular glance and they immediately know that I wanna see them pull out the king crab. Great guys - Watching Elder Romney consume his first ever thousand year old egg was a joyous experience for me - Heads up everyone I feel the spirit telling me that Chipotle's honey chipotle chicken will soon be gone. I beseech of you to go get it before it is too late. I've been eating a great deal of Chipotle my heavens Anyways I still remember each of you, I still love each of you, I am still excited to see each of you! I'd love to hear from you! Have the best week! google photos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/qwGY1QhS99ne5wGy8 pics: 1. me and Elder Smith 2. cool pic 3. me and Elder Beck drenched in sweat 4. cool text from Judy

WEEK 103 - I'm On Steroids

HOMECOMING: AUGUST 10 9AM @1272 Walden Ln, Draper, UT 84020 My HEAVENS I love you all! I hope you had just the most blessed week ever! I've literally never felt as many emotions as I do right now. I imagine that when Jesus died His apostles were overwhelmed with emotions just like I am. Jesus gave them a commission to go spread His light to all of the world. I bet they were grateful for the time they had with the Master, excited to go and do their best, and nervous for what is to come. I feel all of those right now. When Jesus left they didn't really know what to do, so they decided to "go a fishing." They caught nothing all night long. I bet they were feeling pretty down on themselves. In a short time they went from following the Savior of the world to unsuccessful fisherman. The thing that I think we all sometimes forget is that the Savior won't ever forsake us, He'll always come back, no matter our circumstance. As soon as Jesus came back to them, John k...

WEEK 5 - the puzzle fiend

Thank the glorious heavens above I love P - Day so much. I LOVE LOVE LOVE hearing from you guys and I LOVE writing my emails. My emails make me realize how weird and amazing this place is at the same time and I love it. But anyways let me tell you what happened this week. - I literally almost became spider-man last week. Yes Elder Andrewsen you heard that right. Spider Man. So basically there was this really weird thing on my arm last Monday and it was rapidly growing and making my mom super worried so we went to go to an urgent care. They then told me that I had a weird spider bite infection thing and a weird strain of the flu. So we were quarantined. The devil himself must really want me off the streets of texas, but it ain't gonna happen. - On our way to the urgent care it was a really silent car ride. And I hate awkward silence so much. We passed by a Hooters and I just kinda wanted to make conversation, so I told my companion Elder Campbell that I was going to take him there...

WEEK 72 - Various Italian Dishes

Merry Christmas family and friends I love you! And to you Elder Yee, I declare a firm Mele Kalikimaka! I hope yall get to do something you love this Christmas, so you can feel just like I do. When Jesus Christ called Peter to be His disciple, He said nothing of Peter's past or his flaws, all he said was "come follow me." If you are on this list you have likely noticed that I have quite a few flaws, I have done things I am not proud of, and I have messed up more times than I can count. Yet all I hear is "come follow me." That is all He wants of me and that is all He wants of you. Long ago when Christ was born, the new star was another sign of Him saying "come follow me." To the rich wise men, to the poor shepherds, to all who saw the night sky. All were invited to follow Him. Life isn't always the easiest, but I know following Him and doing my best to be good and to serve those around me has healed me and gets me through all of my sorrows. He spent...
