Sorry this email is going to be pretty short. The libarary for the stake center is closed so I am typing on my phone, and its really tedious so just bear with me here.

This last week was insane. I got sick for 3 days and then when I got feeling better my companion had a migraine so we stayed in the apartment for 4 days straight... Then throughout the week a lot of random shenanigans happened that just threw us off. I honestly cannot describe what happened. But besides from that I did get to meet with Brother Donovan who is the counselor. The meeting went really well, he committed me to writing every night one moment I saw the Lord's Hand in the day. I'll be meeting with him next week. The packages havent come in yet, they will probably be here tomorrow. But I did get that Fall Package with all those goods you left for me and my companion. Sadly we were sick so its just sitting there.

Honestly really nothing happened this week besides the fact I pondered a lot and studied since we got stuck in the apartment. Its been getting harder and harder to stay motivated but I am trying... I dont even feel motivated to email, its almost a hassle now. But I am grateful for all your prayers and fasting. I dont know what is in store but I have been praying and hoping more than I ever have before... 

I am sorry though this email is so short, next week should have some more in store. I'll let you know.

Thanksgiving Week!

Hey Mom and Dad! This last week went by pretty slow for me (I think because it was week six of transfers so it felt weird). That's funny that all the kiddos want to sleep in, no more its time to get up and get work boys and girls! You guys already set up the Christmas tree? Nice! Sounds like you guys will be having a blast with the cousins up in Pinetop, make sure to send me some pictures! That's pretty funny that you got called to be the Sunday School President, I'm sure on of those kids is gonna need your help and love while you are fulfilling your calling. Teaching is going pretty interestingly, its the holidays so not many people are home or are with family outside the area but some more people are home so its odd but fun! I'll be spending Thanksgiving with a lesser active family called the Whites and they invited us for dinner so I'm happy for that! The Ward is absolutely amazing, the people are so nice to the missionaries and we practically have a dinner every...

Did You Think to Pray? I actually took pictures this week. And for some odd reason this computer is denying me the right to access those photos... Hold back the pitchforks for now, I'll fix the problem sometime soon. But besides from that one. The title comes from a praying mantis I saw while knocking on doors. I went to go ring a doorbell and there is this giant praying mantis guarding the bell. I ended up not wanting to fight the thing and knocked on the door. Something our mission does every transfer (which is a six week period of time kept by missionaries), we have this thing called a zone conference. And all the missionaries here in the desert got together. Which is always a fun experience being out for little over 13 months now seeing people I've grown to meet and love during my time here and catching up with them. But the whole reason we got together was to learn and grow in our service out here. And something that stuck out to me was learning to set goals, but mo...

Hi Momma!

Yeah I am in a new area, and in a new apartment which is a lot nicer than the older one I stayed in, just has a lot more room (I forgot to take pictures which I promise to do that). It's just me and Elder de La Torre in this apartment. From what I can tell you Elder de La Torre is from Las Vegas, Nevada which is super close to our mission and it turns out he is actually a "trial missionary" and he might be staying in this mission or be called to somewhere else. His mom is a member and his father is currently investigating in the church so it's pretty cool. He loves music and played in a mariachi band for a little while and did orchestra so he is pretty awesome, and he speaks fluent spanish which helps when we run into a lot of spanish speaking people here in Ontario.  Yeah it is kind of crazy how fast time has flown by honestly, I feel like I've been here for awhile even though I haven't and even though the end is far away it seems to be coming up kind of qu...
