Olivers mission

  hey everyone! to be honest. this week was just not it. I was lowkey depressed this whole week because I miss elder kjar. when you connect spiritually with someone and then it gets spread apart... it hurts. President Grisel was helpful enough to send me a quote by President Benson. He states, "sometimes we must righteously hold on and outlast the devil until his depressive spirit leaves us." this week was one of the hardest I've worked yet because it was the only thing that distracted my mourning soul.  however, it was good too! my greenie elder Lindsey is so dope. he's slow on the bike but the kid inspires me like none other. he was baptized only a year ago. his faith shows and he has that yearning to learn more all the time. big respect for this guy .  this week I yearned for what President Nelson calls "spiritual momentum." He states, "Pure faith keeps us moving forward on the covenant path. Please do not fear or delay repenting. Satan delights in y...

  hey yall!  it's been a pretty crazy two weeks. a lot has happened. the transfer news is... I'll be training and elder kjar is going zl in the gila valley. so rip because he's awesome. he'll do great things.  elder kjar and I went to the aerospace museum with some people in our zone and it was so cool. I don't know too much about planes but you see all kinds everywhere you go.  we also had such a cool experience this week going on splits with kids from sierra vista. President Grisel chose 15 companionships in the whole mission to do it and elder kjar and I were picked.  best thing ever happened! our friend Vernon we've been teaching for two transfers came to church yesterday! I have a photo with him down below. he was so happy and wants to come back. my heart is so happy for him. if you've met my aunt Julie, he's that same. he has the kindest heart you'll ever meet.  we taught a lesson with everyone in our district this week and that was a good time...

  what's up everyone! this week went by super fast like always. we had a ton of super good lessons this week. sadly a couple of them are ending bc they are going away for the summer. however, our main friends are still here to that's a win.  so funny story. I was biking right behind elder kjar and he didn't signal like he usually does when we turn and I fell over his bike and landed on the road hard haha. but fast forward another day and I was biking over this bridge and when I was at the end, there was this huge sand pile and my tire spun out and I fell again. I currently have some gnarly cuts on my arm. I was hoping for some dope anakin scar over the eye but hey you take what you can get. I have an exchange with the zl's this week so that will be fun. I also get to go golfing today so hallelujah!  one of our favorite members took us out to dinner this week and that was also a highlight. I caught a cold again this week. we're playing against north zone for frisbee ...
