Providence Week 3

 What's up everybody!

Yet another great week here in Providence and it’s crazy to me that a week has passed since my last email. It's already starting to go so fast. This week started off with me and Elder Ford being solo since the other companionship in our apartment was on an exchange with another companionship. It felt really weird living with just one other person but elder Ford still made it fun. This week we also had our exchange but it was with the companionship in our apartment who we share the same area with which was probably one of my favorite days on the mission. The other companions are starting their own area as well so most of the people they teach are just people found on the street so me and Elder Sharp were just out finding all day. We worked really well together and this was probably my most successful day on the mission after what was a somewhat dry week. 

Highlights of da week 
-Met Mrs. Utah and we made sure to invite her to church. She also made us get a picture with her. 
-The weather has been perfect down here so biking around all day all of a sudden is not too bad
-We met a couple named Joseph and Dylina who met with missionaries in Colorado and have already been taught a bunch of stuff and are interested in baptism 
-Establishing myself as the goat for monopoly 
-Some guy was watching college football at a park and I watched the Utah game with him for a sec. Devon for Heisman 

And yeah this week's been really great a lot of spiritual experiences. We had a great lesson with Amada who we invited to read the introduction to the Book of Mormon but instead she read all the way to 1 Nephi 11! Personal studies have been hitting hard lately. Also talking about the gospel with random people is also getting a lot easier. So yeah overall great week!

Spirit thought-
Alma 7:11-12 
This is probably the most popular verse in the Book of Mormon and I have been sharing this verse for nearly every lesson so I figured I'd share it with y'all. Just know there is no place low enough to be outside the light of Christ.

MTC Baby

  What's up everyone! Im writing this on my new android phone with really bad autocorrect so bear with me here.  5th day of provo MTC and I think I finally might be locked in on the missionary lifestyle. Being able to wake up at 6:30 every day has truly been a miracle. Bless up. I would seriously kill for a nap but I guess those aren't allowed around here. I got super lucky with my district we all get along pretty well. My companion Elder Bills is a dog. He has been telling me about his adventures in the harsh mountains of Idaho. He doesn't say much but when he does it's gospel. We had our first teaching appointment yesterday and even with practicing humility we killed it. Turns out the MTC teaching appointment are actors but hey a wins a win.  We have had some pretty spiritual classes and thanks to my teachers my testimony has grown so much over the last week. My favorite part so far has been my personal studies. The people in my district know everything there is to kn...

Providence Week 4

  Howdy yall it's been yet another week here in Providence and it seems to just be going faster and faster every week. This week was one of the more testing weeks on my mission. We didn't find a whole lot of people and with that there were quite a few bashers mixed in as well. It has honestly been a blessing in disguise though because every person who tries to bash us has been giving us new questions we have been able to take apart. Each one we were able to come up with a great response too.  It really has made me confident in our gospel.   This week me and Elder Ford were able to go on an exchange with our zone leaders who are way fun and are great examples of missionaries. They are also great teachers so it was way cool to see a great lesson up close and personal. I was with Elder Johnson and we were chopping it up about bball and he also has one of the best Peter Griffin impressions I have ever heard.  Also on Saturday we were able to visit the college campus...
