Just doing what I can to stay busy! (April 20, 2020)

Sorry I haven't emailed for a while. It has kinda just been boring here, I've just been going on hikes and doing anything I can to stay busy, but I hope y'all are having fun.  I just thought I would send a quick email today.  But that's all I really have to say but I hope you enjoy the pictures from our hike yesterday.

Week 81 "19 Months"

Hello again! So this week has been interesting due to Covid-19 with Church canceling and a lot more. The work has definitely slowed down I will tell you that, but I do think that this is the adversary trying all he can to stop everything leading up to General Conference because this General Conference will truly be memorable.  Today we got a email that said all missionaries that are set to go home before the month of September will go home at 21 months so that was crazy to get that email and that means I only have 2 months left of my Mission so you will see me sooner then you thought.  But that's all I have so hope you have a great week. 

Week 80 "Staying another in Stevensville!

Hello again! So this week wasn't bad.  On Wednesday we had a lesson and that went well.  Thursday was transfers but  my Companion and I both stayed which was nice.  What is really weird is that I have almost 5 months left which is crazy!!  Time is really flying here in Montana.  But our week wasn't too bad but that's all I can think of right now so I will talk to y'all next week. 

Week 79 "18 1/2 Months!"

Hello Everyone, These past couple weeks haven't been to bad, but they have been pretty slow work wise sadly.  I just wanted to send a email so everyone knows I'm alive. This last week we have been trying all the part member families because there are a lot of them in this area and so far just dropping them and cleaning up the area book, so sadly no one really is interested from that yet.  We did knock on one part member families door that we have been trying to contact they know a lot of members and come to church sometimes too and they let us in and we talked and then the next day the wife who is not a member and their kids came because the husband who is the member had to work so that was awesome.  Today we got transfer calls and me and my companion are staying in this area so I'm excited to try to get this area moving but that was our week.  Hope y'all have a good week. 

Week 75 "Sorry I keep Forgetting to Send Emails" - February 3, 2020

So this week hasn't been too bad. A couple weeks ago we had transfers and my new comp is Elder Abrantes from Connecticut and he has been out 1 Transfer longer then me so he is almost at 19 Months as I am almost at 18. But I remember last Sunday when I was just on Facebook and saw everyone posting about Kobe Bryant and then I found out that he had passed away along with his daughter Gianna and 7 others, It was so unexpected but I know that he is with his daughter right now and that makes me think about how wonderful the Plan Of Salvation is and I am so grateful that I have a knowledge of that plan.   This week wasn't too bad, but it was also pretty slow, we just tried contacting a bunch of part member families but no one was really interested.  But that is how I am doing.  Hope you all have a wonderful week and I will talk to ya next week.  I love this Gospel and as I start to head onto my downhill slope at this 18 Month mark I wanna do and be ...
