I hope y'all had an amazing Christmas and that you were able to enjoy spending time with family and loved ones!</div>

I had a great week! Most of the week it rained which is awesome for here because they need the rain very bad! Then after all of that cleared up, it got really cold and we were able to see snow on the mountains and frost everywhere on Christmas day! It was really cool!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1483400251096_17825">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1483400251096_17826">
So on Christmas we went to the Riches for Breakfast and we were able spend some time with their family and watch the last video for the #LighttheWorld initiative. It was so cool to see all of the things that people did over the past month! I encourage y'all to continue to light the world this upcoming year and to truly make this World a better place. All it take are little steps from many of us!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1483400251096_17759">
<br /></div>
<div>
Then later on Christmas, I was able to go to church and sing in the choir and then go to the Fox's house to Skype back home and to eat dinner. I was so happy to be able to Skype my family and spend some time with them.</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1483400251096_17827">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1483400251096_17762">
I also learned about a movie called " Ephraim's Rescue" that I love and would recommend to anyone! It is such a powerful movie and it made me realize that the things that I am going through is very little compared to what others who have come before us have had to go through! That move has given me added strength to move past my trials and to continue to rely on the Lord for help and guidance.</div>

Here are some awesome quotes that I love!</div>

It is possible to have a testimony of the gospel without living it. Being truly converted means we are acting.<br />--Bonnie L. Oscarson<br /><br />When we feel the Savior's Atonement working in our lives, we will be filled with joy.<br />--Russell M. Nelson<br /><br />When was the last time I chose to be happy rather than demanding to be right?<br />--Linda K. Burton<br /><br />If in the end you have not chosen Jesus Christ it will not matter what you have chosen.<br />--Neal A. Maxwell</div>

I know that the as we work hard we will achieve what we have set out to do. I am grateful for the opportunity that I have to serve the Lord full time. I know that if I ever need guidance, my first source it my Heavenly Father and that as I rely on Him, then I will be guided down the right path ALWAYS. I have learned that Heavenly Father often times answers prayers through the scriptures and I have gained a testimony of the Book of Mormon through that!</div>

So transfer weeks are always crazy and then to add on top of that, I found out I was moving the night before transfers! It was pretty crazy but we did it and we are now getting back to normal missionary life.</div>

This week, we had some pretty great success. We were able to find a new investigator and get in to see some investigators that we haven't been able to see in a while.</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1483400251096_12868">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1483400251096_12867">
So funny story with how we found our new investigator. So we were heading back from meeting with one of our investigators name Reuban and as we were going down the street, there were these kids playing basketball, that stopped us and pointed out how tall Elder Castleton is, which just about everyone we meet does (He is 6'6"). So we ended up stopping and one of the kids challenged him to a basketball game and so he did. So while he was playing basketball, I was talking to some of the other kids and one of them said that they knew a lot of Mormons and if they were to ever convert to a religion, being Mormon was pretty high on the list. So I talked with them a little bit and was able to give them a Book of Mormon and a Restoration pamphlet. We also were able to set up a time top meet with them next week, which I am super excited about.</div>

<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1483400251096_12832">
Also, we were able to meet with Reuban and answer some of his questions. He didn't really know where the Book of Mormon came from and why it was so important so we were able to answer that and help him to realize the importance of it and how it is the key stone of our religion.</div>

I am so grateful for this Christmas season and for the opportunity that I have to celebrate the birth of our Savior Jesus Christ. I know that as we center our focus this season and throughout the rest of the year on our Savior, Jesus Christ, we will find that life will become a little bit easier. I can promise you that because I have seen as I have done so on my mission, life has become easier and more fulfilling. I know that the Book of Mormon is true. There is no doubt in my mind that it is not the word of God. I am grateful for the opportunity I have to serve the Lord in this part of His vineyard.</div>

This week was fantastic! So the majority of my week was taken up either setting up, ushering, or going to the "O, Child Divine" play with our investigators. I wish everyone of y'all could have been there for it, as it was such an incredible event and we were able to have so many of our investigators, former investigators, and many potential investigators come to it! The Spirit was so strong there and I was able to feel of the Savior's love and Spirit as I watched the show. All of our investigators loved it and many were even crying during the performance. They should be making a video of it so as soon as it comes out, I will email it to you.</div>

So if you don't know already, I am staying here and am going to be getting a new companion, Elder Castleton. I already know him from my last District so that is kind of cool.</div>

I know that the Savior lives and that He came to this earth so that we can return to live with our Heavenly Father and I am so grateful for that! I know that if we choose to make the Savior the center of this Christmas season, we will find so much more joy in this season. I know that as we are obedient and strive to do our best, we WILL so miracles and blessings come from it. I know the Book of Mormon is true, that is where my conversion started and I am grateful for that. I know that this is where I am supposed to be at this time in my life. I would not rather be anywhere else because serving the Lord is the best thing that we can ever do in this life.</div>

This past week was amazing! There were so many opportunities to serve others with the new #lighttheworld program. I am still so excited about that! My companion and I were able to help put up Christmas lights for families that don't usually do it due to their illnesses or age or they just needed a helping hand. It was so much fun to be able to help them out and spend time with them sharing one of my favorite Christmas traditions.</div>

I know that the Savior died for each and every one of us. I am so grateful for the Atonement in my life and the blessing that it is. I would not be the person I am today without the healing power of the Atonement. I know that we have a loving Heavenly Father who cares about each and everyone of His children, He knows us each by name. I know that as we turn to Him and turn to His teachings through the Book of Mormon and Bible that we will receive answers to our questions and struggles. I am so thankful for Christ gospel and the opportunity that I have to share it with the those whom I serve.</div>

I am super excited it about it and am so happy that the church has put this out so that we can remember the real meaning of Christmas. There is so much about Christmas has been commercialized over the years and this is a perfect and simple way for us to bring back the true meaning of Christmas!</div>

Thanksgiving was great! We were able to play in the Turkey bowl which was fun but I must say that sliding around on a turf field will cut you up. I was able to enjoy Thanksgiving with three different families and see what their traditions are. We had things from sushi to shrimp to the traditional turkey and many other great dishes. It was wonderful to feel of the love that each person has for us and for their Savior.</div>

Also this week we were able to teach a couple of our investigators and share with them the Light the World video, they loved it and one of them said that if we all did this, this world would be a much better place! I totally agree and I love how others are able to recognize that.</div>

I know that this is Christ's church re-established on the Earth today. I know that through the Savior all things are possible. I am so thankful for Him and His Atonement for each and every one of us. I would not be the person I am today if I did not have His gospel in my life. I know that this Light the World initiative is truly inspired and is a way for us to remember the true meaning of Christmas and to really make the world a better place.</div>

So this week was amazing! I was able to meet with an Apostle of the Lord, Elder Dallin H. Oaks! That was such a neat experience. A couple things that I learned was that apostles can be really funny when they are not at General Conference. I also learned that one of the biggest mistakes that teachers make is that they assume too much. Meaning they assume that the people they are teaching already understand the basics. He suggested that even if someone said that they have been taught something, that we need to go back and reteach the basics and make sure that they understand it before we move on. If we don't, then they are going to be lost with the stuff that we are teaching. I also better understand the Sacrament and how important it is for each and every one of us and how repentance is directly related to it.</div>

Also this week, I was able to go on exchanges with Elder Wilde, who is an awesome Elder by the way! He has so much enthusiasm and it is great! He is so much fun to work with!</div>

Elder Holfeltz and I are also singing in the Ward choir since they were pretty low in numbers so I guess I will be singing on Christmas during sacrament.</div>

I know that this is Christ's gospel. I know that there is a prophet on the Earth today and I am so grateful for the knowledge and the guidance that we are given through latter-day prophets. I know that the Book of Mormon is truly Another Testement of Jesus Christ. I know that as we work hard and are obedient, we will be blessed.</div>

This week was great! We saw many miracles. I have such a testimony that the Lord leads us to the right places at the exact times that we are needed. I know that because, this week, we felt like we should stop by this one member's home and so we did and we were able to share a message with them that they needed at that moment in their life. Also, we were able to stop by an investigator and be there at the right time to be able to answer some of their questions.</div>

I am so grateful to be here and to be a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I know that the Spirit can work in each of our lives and can help us to feel of Christ's Atonement! I know that as we study the words of the prophets, we will be able to find answers to our questions and the trials that we are having in our life! I know that the Book of Mormon is true, how could it not? It is such an amazing feeling when you read and truly ask if it is true or not and then receive the answer that it is!</div>

Another fantastic week has gone by! It started off pretty slow but it seems like by the end of the week things tend to start picking up. I think that the best part of my whoKia, and Cameron all came to church on Sunday and they loved it. The person teaching Relief Society told us afterwards that she actually changed her lesson plan like five times and at the end of the meeting, Kia was crying and came up to her and told her that that was exactly what she needed. Also, in Elders Quorum, they talked about Home teaching which Jeff pretty much already does with his next door neighbor that he is friends with. Jeff also said that he is going to go to the Softball games that the Elders Quorum is playing! It is so great when the members show such love and support for our investigators. <br />

I am grateful for the opportunity that I have to serve and to be a part of other's conversions process. I know that as we work hard, we will be blessed and we will find success for everything.I know that the Book of Mormon was written for our time, I have found so many answers to my questions as I have read from the Book of Mormon and prayed to my Father in Heaven. I know that as we continue to serve others and share this amazing gospel that means so much to us, we will be blessed and things will work out. I know that this is Christ's church restored on the Earth today and I am so grateful to be a part of it!</div>

Sometimes I feel like a broken record with regards to talking about how amazing my mission is but it truly is amazing and I am having the best time of my life!</div>

So this week started off, awesome! So Monday is starts pouring rain outside, which is a huge rarity in Temecula and we got to go out and bike in it, which made it even more fun. Now the miracle that we saw that night was that we were bale to get in and teach the James' who we have been having the hardest time getting hold of because they have a really busy schedule. That lesson went very well and we were able to set up another time to meet with them.</div>

Also, while on exchanges, we were able to meet this awesome elderly couple and talk with them. They are the sweetest people and are always willing to share there story and help us out whenever they can! </div>

On Saturday, we were able to find another person to teach named Jason and we were able to help him through some trials that he is going through in his life right now. I am so happy that our loving Heavenly Father has given us scriptures that are so applicable to our lives and that we can us to help others.</div>

<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_15175">
I know that through our trials, we are made stronger so that we can help someone else through their trials. I also know that Heavenly Father loves us so much! More than we can even begin to imagine. That is why His plan is so perfect, is because it is all about love. I know that through Christ we can be lifted from our burdens. I know that the Book of Mormon is true and that as we come to know of its truthfulness for ourselves, we will find strength in it. I am so grateful for a prophet that leads and guides us as if Christ were here on the Earth to do so. </div>

So this week was great! So although it started off as a slow week, it ended up being an awesome week towards the end. </div>

This was just one of those weeks where everyone cancelled, if you have or are serving a mission then you know what I am talking about. However, usually those days come to an end and you are able to see the little miracles that come as we work hard and are obedient and that is exactly what happened with us this week. So on Saturday during my personal study I felt like I should read from Preach My Gospel in the Finding section. So I did and I read one of the activities and it was to try and contact as many former investigators as possible in 24 hours and so we did! And we were able to find 2 new investigators that day and set up a return appointment with them! I was so happy and it was so great to see God's hand in our life as we were able to meet many of His children and help them tho feel of His love fot them.</div>

Also during Stake Conference our mission President spoke and we were able to hear from him, he is truly inspired and I love how he is so up front about the importance of missionary work but he knows that it is hard so he read this scripture to us from Doctrine and Covenants 60:2 which says, "<span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10001">But </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10002">with </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10003">some </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10004">I </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10005">am </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10006">not </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10007">well </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10008">pleased, </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10009">for </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10010">they </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10011">will </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10012">not </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10013">open </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10014">their </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10015">mouths</span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10016">, </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10017">but </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10018">they </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10019">hide </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10020">the </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10021">talent</span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10022"> which </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10023">I </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10024">have </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10025">given </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10026">unto </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10027">them, </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10028">because </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10029">of </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10030">the </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10031">fear</span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10032"> of </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10033">man. </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10034">Wo </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10035">unto </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10036">such, </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10037">for </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10038">mine </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10039">anger</span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10040"> is </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10041">kindled</span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10042"> against </span><span class="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk yiv2839839609gmail-hl-id-9442411" id="yiv2839839609gmail-chunk10043">them."

I am so grateful for the opportunity that I have had to serve here in the Redhawk Ward. I know that the Savior atoned for all of our sins and that through Him we can become clean again! I know that the this is Christ's church re-established on the Earth again and I am so grateful to be a part of it! I know all of this because I know that the Book of Mormon is true and I know that you too can know of its truthfulness as you take the time to read from it and to ask Heavenly Father if it is true. I mean what do you have to loose, a couple hours of your time to read a book that could change your life forever and allow you to know of God's perfect and loving plan for you! I would encourage each of you to read from it and to ask if it is true or not. I know if you are sincere, you will receive an answer to your prayer.</div>

Hey Everyone,</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_9780">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_9701">
This week was great! I learned so much and I had so much fun!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_9774">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_9773">
So this week we had the Trunk or Treat and we were able to get quite a few investigators out to it and help them to enjoy it. Also we are able to decorate one of the councilers in the bishoprics car and hand out candy which really helped me to learn the Ward even better.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_9685">
So the climax of the week was on Wednesday when we were able to have our lesson with Kia and Jeff. So we were teaching them the Law of Tithing and at the end she was like, " so can we do the next lesson?" That was Law of Chasity and she pretty much taught us the Law of Chasity and then we were able to move on to the Word of Wisdom and teach her about that one. During that lesson, she told us that she wanted to get baptized, she just wanted to finish the Book of Mormon and get more involved in the church before she did. My companion and I were both super excited to hear that!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_9684">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_9680">
Also, we found out that she knows quite a few members of the church than I think she realized and they have been helping her in many ways to feel of Heavenly Father's love for her.</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_9702">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_9711">
I know that through the Book of Mormon, we can come to a knowledge of the truthfulness of the gospel. I know that Christ's chirch has been restored today to the Earth and what a blessing it is that we have that knowledge. I know that we have a living prophet, President Thomas S. Monson that leads and guides us. I know that as we continue to do the small and simple things such as saying our prayers, reading the scriptures and going to church, our testimony will be strengthened and we will be blessed! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_9782">
There is also an awesome video that I would recommend to anyone who would like to feel the Spirit and Christ's love for them. It is called Missionary Work and the Atonement. Just search that on youtube.</div>

Hey Everyone!</div>

This week has been great!</div>

First off, we were able to see a miracle when 6 investigators showed up to a Fireside that our Ward Mission Leader put on. It was such a great experience and we all felt the Spirit so strong there! </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_8965">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_9026">
Also, we were able to stop by a former investigator this week and see if we could help him out with anything and if he would be willing to start meeting with us again and he said that he would liove to and that we could come over and help him with his backyard project. It was a great experience and I really enjoyed talking with him and seeing how we can help.</div>

<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_9028">
We were able to go over to our Ward Mission Leaders house again on Wednesday to have a lesson with our investigators, Jeff and Kia. They are awesome and at the end of the lesson, Kia asked, "Do we have to be members of your church to start paying tithing?" and we had not even taught tithing yet! She also started asking questions that started with, "So when we are baptized...?" instead of, "So if we are baptized...?" It is amazing when the Spirit is able to testify to them of the truthfulness of the things that we teach.</div>

I konw that this is Christ's Church restored back on the Earth. I know it because I have had a confirmation from the Holy Ghost that it is. I know that each and every one of us can have that same witness if we will take the time to sincerely pray to Heavenly Father about it. I know that conversion is a long process and that it is truly a life long journey, but I look at it this way, if it is a lifelong journey, wouldnt you want to start that journey as quick as possible so that you can come to know the Savior more fully in your life? I know that the Book of Mormon is truly Another Testament of Jesus Christ and I would continue to invite you to read it and ask if it is true!</div>

This week was great! I got a good hardworking companion and I was able to go around and meet many of the Ward members, who by the way are really great and super missionary minded. </div>

General Conference was amazing and I loved all of the talks! I will have to go back and re read the the talks in the ensign once they come out. My favorite was the talk by President Thomas S. Monson where he talks about how we can draw on the strength that God has promised is because of us living the Word of Wisdom.</div>

So it is kinda weird riding by the casino at night! My companion compared it to Lehi's dream of us going down the sidewalk is the straight and narrow path, the Casino is the great and spacious building, and the really busy road is the river. I thought it was a great analogy and something I think about as we are going down the road.</div>

I know that this church is true! I am grateful for the opportunity that I have to serve in the Redhawk Ward and to work my hardest for my Savior. I am grateful for the opportunity that we have had to watch General Conference and to hear from the prophet! I know the Book of Mormon is true and that by reading it we can each come to know of the truthfulness of it!</div>

Also if you haven't already heard, I am getting transferred to the Redhawk Ward in Temecula and my new companion will be Elder Holfeltz. </div>

One really cool thing that happened was that we were able to go to the Mormon Battalion! Which is super cool and a place that I would definitely recommend to anyone who has the chance to go! The Spirit can be felt very strong there and there is so much that the Mormon Battalion did that I had no idea they went through.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1481464225191_7590">
This week we also had a really cool experience where we were listening to the Spirit and we were put in the right place at the right time. It all started when we went to go and see one of our investigators but he was too tired to meet so we were walking back down the hill and I felt like we should stop by this member that lived in the same complex. At first I was like, he is active, why do we need to stop by, it is already late and then this thought popped into my head and it said, "You told me you would act on the prompting I give you." So I turned to Elder Adams and said that I felt like we should go to this house so we did and come to find out, he had just lost his job and was about to move but had a really bad back and was stressing about what he was going to do. We felt like we should share a message of hope and faith and then we offered to help him move and he was super appreciative of it. Then we went to go and see Nita as we always do and as we were walking up the hill to her place, I felt like we should stop by one of our investigators, Beverly and Christian, who live by there and so I said to myself that we would stop by after we saw Nita. So we went and saw Nita and what normally would have taken an hour took only 15 minutes because she was not feeling well. So we asked if she wanted a blessing and we gave her one and the next day she was feeling so much better. So after we left there I felt again that we should go and see Beverly and Christian and then Elder Adams told me that he felt like we should too and I had not told him that I felt that way yet. So we stopped by there and Beverly told us that she works on Sundays so she hasn't been able to come but she would love to go to Church in Escondido which is closer to where she works. We then got in touch with the missionaries there so that they can help her feel welcome. That was such a great night and both Elder Adams and I felt the Spirit so strong!</div>

I know that if you follow the Spirit then everything will work out. I do not know what I would do if I didn't have the Spirit leading and guiding me! I know that this is Christ's Church restored here on the Earth. If you cant believe it, then ask God and I know that He will tell you! I know that God answers our prayers, it just takes us having the faith that He will answer and that we are willing to accept what His answer even if it is not what we wanted. I know that the Book of Mormon is true and that through it, you can become closer to Jesus Christ and God than by any other way. </div>

This week was pretty good for us. We were able to go to one of our investigators, Rosy, wedding. It was so cool. And the best part is that now she can get baptized and then in a year they can get sealed in the temple together for time and all eternity!</div>

Also this week we were able to go to this volunteer appreciation luncheon for the Fallbrook Food Pantry and we received a Certificate from the Senator for LDS Missionaries as a whole for there 758 Service hours this past year. It was a great experience being there and being able to help out so many people and get to know all of those around the community.</div>

I also learned something really neat in Sunday school yesterday. WE were talking about obedience and the thing that was pointed out about why we don't keep all of the commandments is because we lack knowledge. If you think about it, everything that we do and are is dependent upon our knowledge of Jesus Christ and our willingness to be like Him. One scripture that we talked a little bit about that talks about the source of our happiness in this life is in D&C 93:28. I love that scripture and I know that it is true.</div>

I am so grateful for the opportunity that I have to serve a mission and to be an instrument in the Lord's hands. I know that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is Christ's church here on the earth today. If you want proof of that, read the Book of Mormon and then go ahead and test God and ask Him if it is not true. I know that if you sincerely do, you too will come to the same knowledge as I have that the Book of Mormon was translated by Joseph Smith and that the Church that Christ established is truly here again and that it will never again leave this Earth! What an amazing thing it is to have that knowledge.</div>

<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1476662642824_3265">
We were able to find a couple of new investigators and we were also able to see quite a few Less Active members which is always nice!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1476662642824_3292">
This week I saw God's hand in my life in many ways, first off, we were able to stop by this great person who was very welcoming in letting us come in and talk and he talked about how he had gone through all of these trials to get to this point in his life.</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1476662642824_3264">
<br /></div>
<div>
We were also able to help out this man who had met with missionaries in the past and agreed with a lot of what we believed and we asked if he was still willing to learn and he said he was so we are going to go and see him later this week.</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1476662642824_3092">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1476662642824_3263">
We also were able to teach one of our recent converts how to do FHE. Those same people, we had a cool experience with earlier in the week as we were going to all of these people that we thought for sure would be there but they were not and then I had the feeling that we should stop by them earlier in the day even though we were going to be going there later that night. We did and it turned out that they needed us there at that time to be able to help them through some of the trials that they were facing at that time. One of the recent converts opened up to us more than before and we were able to help him through his trials. My testimony of God's hand being in the right place at the right time is growing each and every day that I serve!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1476662642824_3298">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1476662642824_3299">
I know that this is where I need to be and that there is no other place that I can feel the Spirit as strongly and in such great abundance than on a mission. I would invite all that may be thinking about serving a mission to go to the Lord and ask Him if you should, I have a feeling I know what His answer will be. I know that this church is true without a doubt and I know that the Book of Mormon is true. If you have a testimony of the Book of Mormon, I can testify that everything else will fall into place and that you will understand and agree with everything else. If you have not read and asked Heavenly Father if the Book of Mormon is true, I would invite you to do so.</div>

The first story I want to share with you is a story about how I was able to grow my testimony even stronger of how God has His hand in all things. So it started off with us going to track down a referral that we got from the Fallbrook 1st Ward sisters. This referral was a bit further out in our area so we got a ride from a member of our ward. All we had was their name and directions to their house. Well we spent about 45 minutes looking for this house but could not find it, we asked the neighbors and everyone around and no one seemed to know. So our member, Bro. Erard, thought we should stop by a member that knows the area pretty well. So we went over to his place to talk with him and he wasn't there. We then called him and he mentioned a less active member who was in the area, which we had actually planned as a back up to go and see that night. Anyways, we knock on this members door and he invites us in almost immediately. We sat down and we talked with him and his wife for a little while and found out that he had never lost his testimony and had been waiting for someone from the church to stop by. He told us that night that he wanted to come back to church and that he would. He also said that he would like us to teach his wife the missionary discussions as she is not a member of the church and he would like to be a part of that as well. It was a very spiritual meeting and I am so glad that we were able to listen to the Spirit to direct us to this wonderful home! </div>

Another miracle that happened was when we were able to meet with our investigator, Don! We have been meeting with him for about 2 months now and originally he said he would get baptized in 6 months but we were teaching him the Gospel of Jesus Christ and he realized that he didn't always have to be perfect and that it was okay to mess up because of the Atonement. After he realized that and the Spirit testified to him that he could get baptized, he turned to us and said, "You guys have yourself a deal, I will get baptized." We set a date with him for September 24th and we are excited for him!</div>

<div>
I know that this church is led by Christ Himself. He is at the head of this church and that His hand is in all things! I know that we have a prophet that is called of God and that he is the mouthpiece for God. I know that with the Spirit, we can accomplish all things and that as we rely on it, it will help us to a line our will with God's will. I know that the Book of Mormon is true because I feel the Spirit as I read from it and it confirms to me of its truthfulness.</div>

So this week was a busy week for us. We were able to go and have a meeting with one of the Seventy. Elder de Hoyos and it was so neat to be able to meet with him and to receive council on how we can become even better missionaries. We also like it said in the title, were able to have a baptism! </div>

Parker is an awesome kid and has been being taught by the Zone Leaders but recently moved into our ward and decided to get baptized into our ward. Parker is awesome, I was able to teach him while on exchanges with Elder Major and also help their family out with moving. They are a really special family to me. I am so grateful that I was able to witness their baptism.</div>

Today we were able to go to some caves and go exploring! It was so much fun, definitely one of my favorite zone activities! It is crazy to see all of the graffiti on the rocks! We had so much fun going too that!</div>

I am grateful for the opportunity that I have to serve here and to help others come unto Christ! I am grateful for Parkers decision to be baptized and be an example for his family. It truly is amazing to see how much people can change all because of one decision to act. I am grateful for the Spirit and how much I can rely on it to help me to help others. I know that this church is true, there is no doubt in my mind. Someone asked me if I couldn't be a Mormon, what would I be and I said, quite honestly I have never given it much thought because I love being a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints! I feel as though I am blessed that I have the knowledge that I do and for the examples that I have had in my life! </div>

Hey Everyone!</div>
<div>

<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1473639677291_9193">
This week was a pretty good week! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1473639677291_9185">
I learned a lot of things and felt the Spirit very strongly on multiple instances. I also learned that there must be some kind of pattern because every other day is a good day and then the other days are a bit more difficult. I guess those difficult days help us to appreciate the other days. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This week we were able to meet with many of our investigators and set expectations with them about why we are even there. We found that some of them understood and some did not. Koree and Don are the most solid investigators right now and are really progressing.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1473639677291_9001">
We also have a baptism this Saturday for a 10 year old named Parker Wallace who just moved into our ward and has been being taught by my Zone Leaders for a while. He is an awesome kid and I am so excited to bring our investigators to his baptism! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I know that God blesses us every single day if we will just look for His hand in our lives. Recently I started a new journal where I am writing down how I saw God's hand in my life. It is so cool to see how much He plays a part in our lives. Even from the most miniscule things. I know that the Book of Mormon is true and that as we read from it, we will come closer to our Lord and Savior. </div>

So we had Zone Training Meeting this week and it was really good and helped me to refocus on my purpose as a missionary and how we need to help our investigators know why we are there and figure out what they expect from us being there. </div>

I am grateful for the protection of missionaries as my companion was riding down a big hill and crashed into a fence going 20mph flipped up in the air and landed in the road. He thankfully was not that injured and only had a couple of scratches on him. There were also 2 nurses that stopped to make sure that he was okay. </div>

I know that the as we work hard and are obedient, we will be blessed, I have seen it time and time again while on my mission. I know that through the Savior, we can be healed of all of our short comings, mistakes, pains, and sorrows. I know that the Book of Mormon is true! If you have not read it, please read it and I can promise you that you will find that life becomes a lot easier as you do.We have been reading with one of our investigators named Don and he is really enjoying the Book of Mormon and applying it too himself in many ways. I know that there is a proghet on the Earth today, President Thomas S. Monson, and he leads us, just as in times of old.</div>

This
week was awesome! Although it felt pretty slow during the week, looking
back, it was a pretty good week! We were able to have our Trainer
Follow-Up meeting and go and eat at Yellow Deli which if you ever come
here, I would definitely recommend that you eat at!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471224814332_6779">

<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471224814332_6780">
Some
of the highlights of the week were, one of our investigators got up and
bore his testimony during Sacrament meeting about the truthfulness of
the Book of Mormon. It was such an amazing experience to be with him
during that! Jjhan is such an awesome guy! </div>

<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471224814332_6782">
Another
highlight of the week was when we had District Meeting! It was such a
powerful District Meeting and the spirit was felt so powerfully there! I
learned so much about how I could help my investigators progress and
help them come closer to their Savior! </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471224814332_6783">

I
am so grateful for the gospel and the joy that is brings into my life
each and every day! I am grateful for the power of Priesthood blessings
and for the opportunities that I have had to participate in them. The
Lord truly does work miracles through the Priesthood! I know that the
Book of Mormon is true and if we read from it, then we will grow closer
to Christ and feel of His love. </div>

This
week was truly amazing! The highlight of the week was when we
anticipated 5 of our investigators coming to church and instead we had 6
come to church! It was so great and it built so much ward trust!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_6193">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_6194">
They all felt the Spirit and really enjoyed going to church. Almost all of them said that they would be back next Sunday!</div>

<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_5954">
Right
now our most solid investigators are Beverly and Christian. They are so
amazing and they love meeting with us. They have felt the Spirit so
much. Christian and Bro. Navy also got along great and are going to be
hanging out together on the weekends. I am so grateful for the members
here and for their willingness to come out with us. </div>

We
also were able to meet with some other investigators this week and
share the gospel with them. We are now teaching this guy named Jjhan and
his friend James that he brought with him to the church tour on
Saturday.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_6286">
We
saw so many miracles this week, from not getting run over to 6 of our
investigators at church and finally to the little tender mercies such as
someone paying for our meal at dinner.</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_6185">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_5998">
This
week I have learned that as we put our trust in the Lord, work hard,
and are diligent, then He will bless us. I know that this church is
true. I have no doubt about that! I have had way to many instances in my
life of where I have seen God's hand in my life! I love being a
missionary and I love sharing this amazing message with everyone that I
meet! I know that as we read from the Book of Mormon and do the simple
and small things in life, we will come to know our Savior better and
feel of His love for each and every one of us more fully our lives. </div>

<br />
Hey Everyone!!<br />
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_4859">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_4858">
I hope y'all had a great week!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_4857">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_4873">
First
off, this week,we saw a few miracles! We met many people and were able
to teach some of them and help them out with whatever problems they were
having in their life at that time. </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_4874">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_4815">
We
also received some training this week on how to resolve investigators
concerns and I learned so much from that and the practice that we had.
We had such a spiritual and powerful practice and I was able to receive
revelation for my investigators of how I could best help them. </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_4769">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_4813">
So
this week we had to drop some of our investigators because they were
not progressing but I have faith that with us gone, they will feel the
difference and want to meet with us again. </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_4814">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_4875">
Oh
we also were able to go to this Pioneer Day thing at the Stake center
and it was great! We had so much fun and we were able to make many
commitments with members.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_4816">
I
know that as we follow God's commandments, He will bless us. I know
that the Spirit truly does inspire each and every one of us each day and
leads us down the right path. I know that the Book of Mormon is true
and that if we ask God with a sincere heart, each and every one of us
can know as well. I am so grateful for the experiences that I have gone
through and that I have been blessed with parents that are good examples
to me. I know that this church is true, I have had too many experiences
that confirm to me of its truthfulness to every deny it!</div>
<div>

<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_4876">
I hope y'all have a great week!</div>

<br />
Hey Everyone,<br />
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3513">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3512">
This week was great and we saw many miracles! </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3519">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3511">
First
off, we were able to meet with this girl named Beverly on Thursday and
she is awesome! We taught her the Restoration and everything made sense
to her and then we invited her to be baptized and she said yes! She is
on date for baptism for August 6th! I am so excited for her!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3510">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3509">
We
also were able to meet with this part member family this past week and
his name is Koree, which is kind of weird to say. We were able to teach
him the Restoration as well and he said that he would read from the Book
of Mormon to know whether or not it is true!</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3167">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3168">
We
then met with Don and he is this really cool guy who really wants to
get baptized but doesn't want to give up some of his habits yet so he
set his own baptismal date for 6 months out. We have a lesson with him
today so we shall see how things go with him.</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3306">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3166">
So
we ran into a few bashers this week and those are always fun! It was
good for my companion to experience though because he will run into
quite a few of them on a mission! I have learned that when that happens,
we have to either just ignore them or show them that we love them. Then
afterwards, just laugh about it.</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3113">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3307">
My
companion and I are doing great together! We have so much fun and we
both have a very similar sense of humor so things work out great! </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3308">
<br /></div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3309">
I
know that as we continue to love each and every one of Heavenly
Father's children that they will be able to see through us the love that
Heavenly Father has for them. I know that the Book of Mormon is true
and that as we continue to read from it, we will see many blessings come
as we<br />
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3310">
read
and study from it. I am grateful for the opportunity that I have to be
here and serving with the people that I serve around. </div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1471178426484_3380">
