22 Days??? WOW!

Well the past weeks have been CRAZY!! life is great! I have had my departing interview with President and that was awesome! I love that man he's taught me lots of good stuff in the past 2 years!!! 
We also had Elder Renlund come visit the mission we also Elder Carl Cook and Elder Brian K Taylor came as well it was amazing one of the best days of my mission! It was amazing I know he's called of God! It's definitely a thing! But we also had Brian K Taylor lead a stake conference but right as he was going to speak the power went out and we just ended there! It was wild! 
The work is going so good! I love life!! 

Transfer 17 and sicko-mode

So the last few weeks have been WILD so much has been happening and I've been so busy I haven't written! I promise I'm doing alright just trying to stay focused! Any who... 

We are working with Justice and he's cool he makes all these movie quotes and basketball references! He is the biggest KU fanatic you will ever meet! He is preparing to be baptized and recieve the priesthood because he wants to help people be better kinda like fro-zone from the incredibles he says. He is awesome! 

We are also working with Alisa! She's so awesome she was Bhudist when we met her and now she has since prayed and come to know there is a God and He is there and wants to help her! She has made some very big steps in her life by considering herself Christian! She's now praying about baptism to see what God says! 

The Lord has been good to us lately! I will be ending my mission in Lawrence helping with the college kids and serving with my best bud and brother Elder Whipple still ! 

This last week was a little tough we both got pretty sick and have been out of commission but this next week we will be GRINDIN NON STOP! IT'S GONNA BE GREAT! I love Kansas yall it's amazing! I love life! I know Christ is real! Love yall! 

P.s. many of yall have heard about the Tornado here and yes we saw it and were okay! We were in the middle of eating at a restaurant when we were told to go to the back hallway to take shelter lol! Kansas is fun here's some pics :) 

Lawrence Life

Hey yall sorry I've been MIA but life has been incredible! I have so many things to tell you!!! Well Lawrence is amazing honestly I love it here it's got such a different vibe than the rest of KS! I love being with Elder Whipple it's so fun! We're just constantly laughing and helpin someone! It's so funny!

Well the coolest thing that has happened since I've last put together an email is Kendra. 

So Kendra is sick! It was a Wednesday and life was rough..... it was hot as heck outside and my head already was killing and it was just what I would call a grade A struggle bus (lol I don't think I've ever said that before idk why I said what I would call ) but it was a disaster well anyways we end up about 4 miles away from home and across campus and we just start knocking some doors and we see this door wide open and I was really hesitant to knock it but after about 20 min I acted in the prompting! I knocked and this GIANT PIT BULL runs out the door and I have enough time to offer up my last prayer before I enter the spirit world..... everything about me wanted to run but I was so scared I froze. And lo an behold out the back room this lady runs out and chills the dog out! And we start chatting a little bit and after a couple min of small talk she asks why were in Kansas and at her door and I looked her in the eyes and for the first time on my mission I said Kendra God sent us here.... and she broke down and said I know. Turns out  she was just in the back room praying asking God what she needed to do. Kendra 2 months ago was told by God to cut out all her addictions and prepare for a work He had for her. And now Kendra is preparing for baptism on the first of June the Lord sure is amazing. 

Another amazing miracle is we have been able to achieve out goals the past few weeks even with school being out! The Lord definitely has His hand over KS that's for sure!

Lol just one last cool story haha 

So it's Friday and my head killing and so is Elder Whipple and it's not just any headache it's one of those that it hurts to be alive kind of headaches but we still push through (honestly idk how but we did) and we decided to just go walk around the down town area and street contact people! As we're out an about I see this sky scraper of a man and made a joke that it was a KU bball player we've been dying to meet. But as I got closer I realized it was Joel Embiid (76ers starting Center who played for KU) it was so cool! We we hustle through those next 40 feet to go chat with him. It was so cool we got to have a decent conversation with him (and the crowd that gathered to see him)  but his mom wouldn't let us take pics so we just snagged a selfie lol.

Well the past couple weeks have been amazing! The Lord is providing! Transfers are next Wednesday so my next email will have those deets for ya!

Transfer 16

These 2 weeks have been CRAZY! 

Ive been transfered to Lawrence Kansas  working with the students at KU! It's so sick! I love it here it's legit so fun! We've met so many cool people here. It's been honestly a really really hard week white washing into a new area with a new companion. His name is Elder Whipple btw and he's one of my best mission buddies. But it's hard we came into nothing. But over the past 2 weeks we've seen some funny stuff and some really cool miracles! We have met a lot of really funny people and honestly the ViBe of lawrence is groovy! I love it here it's so fun! We are just gonna work our tails off and make some miracles happen! 

Side note I got to go to the temple with Aubrey Kristi and Marie! It was so awesome it was such a spiritual experience! We went and did some baptisms and confirmations! I got to participate in confirming! It was so cool! Very very spirit filled! Also President and Sister McCustion showed up to the ysa ward on Sunday so it was good to see them at church as well!! 

The past 2 weeks!

HEYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The past 2 WeEkS have been CRAZINESSSSSS!!!!! 

Well to start everything off we had a super cool miracle at church! So we had 2 of our 6 committed to church there and it looked like no one was looking like they were coming to church and so we got on our knees and begged the Lord to provide for us! And 5 min after the service started we had a family of 4 walk in who happens to live in our area! IT WAS A MIRACLE!!!! SOO COOL! We also talked to Noelle Pikus - Pace at MLC it was so cool. She's the skeleton racer who took Silver in the Olympics, and we talked to her about the crash she was in! IT was sooooo good! She taught us a lot about bouncing back from hard times! AND OMGOSH conference was soooo good holy moly! I learned sooooo much about it it was ssssiiiiiiiccccccckkkkkkkk!!! and We got to help Aubrey get baptized and that officially happened and shes soooooo solid! She finished the Book Of Mormon the night before her baptism and has given 3 copies out to people! She is amazing! This past week was awesome we got to go to Wichita and do exchanges with the assistants, that was awesome!!! We had such a good time and saw a crap ton of miracles!!!!!! It was awesome!!!!!!! 

Happy April Fools day

This week was sickkkkkk! We had a good week! We just worked super hard and tried to make things happen! We met some really cool people! We met this lady at Freddys and we have a lesson set up with her she's so cool! We also had some awesome lessons! We went to Lindsberg! It was sweet! We have met some amazing people! But the coolest miracle was we were praying to have 6 people come to church with us! And a lot of them bailed! But all of a sudden we had a family of 4 walk in and we were able to hit our goal of 6! It was so cool! Honestly just made me realize how much God opens the windows of heaven to those that ask! It was so awesome!! I love y'all so much! I'll send a good funny story next week!!!
