Week 4

  Your boy es muy muy hyped. I got news that I'll be heading straight out to Chile with the rest of my district on March 4th. It's a huge blessing to be able to go right now with everything else going on. I know that's where I'm supposed to be and I can't wait to get out there. That's pretty much all that happened this week

Week 3

  Time has flown by. I'm already halfway done with the MTC. I had my first "lesson" in Spanish this week. Besides the "investigator" hearing my companion and I typing into google translate the whole time, it went well. Hope y'all have a good week!

Also shout out to my sister, Mallory, whose birthday is today, and for setting an example of "having a desire" to serve lol. Although I will unfortunately not be watching the super bowl next week, I hope the Bucs win so Brady will undeniably be the GOAT. Also s...

Whattup boys, the first week of online MTC has been really good so far. I was kind of bummed that I couldn't go the real MTC at first, but I've realized that being home is better than living in the same building for six weeks with a bunch of sweaty 18 year olds. The online MTC has also kept me super busy. I have classes all day with maybe an hour or two of free time. The schedule is a little dusty because I'm the only person in my district that isn't in the Mountain Time zone, so my teachers say everything in Utah time but my canvas says stuff differently. Anyways besides that my district is really cool, and all my classes have been spiritual. I've noticed that since I have no distractions now, scripture study is more effective and I often feel like the scheduled hour isn't enough. My companion, Elder Coleman, is pretty chill he's from Utah. Apparently they started a new curriculum this year so we only speak in English the first two weeks, and then we only ...
