Pday today was AWEsome. So refreshing. :) Even though I'm still a crazy man half the time. We played chess and emailed people. Then we taught our man Stayven at the church! He's 8 years old and soaked in everything. It's so fun teaching simply to kids :) Also, we got transfer news today! I'm staying again haha. We have transfers every two weeks cause of how many new reassigned missionaries we get. Fun stuff!
And here is a picture for my lack of taking pictures this week... :)
Our lesson with Angela today was AWEsome! She is such an amazing person. She's been so blessed and happy lately. The Gospel truly does change lives! "May we ever choose the harder right instead of the easier wrong" (Thomas S. Monson) Sometimes decisions in life can be hard! Please ponder, pray, and involve the Lord in all the decisions that you make and He will guide you for good :)

Today we had a special Zone conference attended by Elder John McCune from the 70! He is amazing! It was truly a humbling experience learned from him and his wife <3 I learned a lot about what I can improve and better myself at in missionary work. We had an in person lesson with Nick and two members. It was SO GOOD! I was straight sweating the whole time, but it's all good. Nick is such a humble person, and he is so ready for his baptism next Saturday

Another North Amerca Central Conference meeting... fun! President wants to take our mission to the next level with Facebook, fun stuff. Also, happy 3 months in quarantine for us... yay! My guess is they'll let us out in August.
Friday: June 19th
We had more meetings than I could count today! We met with the mission, the MTC, another ad specialist, so many people. We at least got to teach Angela again! We taught about the meaning behind Temples!! If you don't know what a temple is, it's a sacred place where we as members go to feel closer to God and make more promises with Him. It provides us a wonderful opportunity to be together with our families forever! You can email me if you want to learn more about this :)
Saturday: June 20th
HAPPY 20TH! Woah, what an amazing milestone, ya goof. :)
FUNNY STORY: Started off today with Elder Samojla starting a "small" grease fire in our oven... nothing too big, you know? Just minor things. Nothing to worry about over here :) Haha! Don't worry... all is well in Zion! We spent a TON of the day working of a Mission Facebook Strategy which was super crazy. Good stuff to look forward to though!
Sunday: June 21st
Happy happy Father's day! Today was very packed, we had quite a few video chats with Jenny, Carol, Angela, and Nick. It was amazing to hear that Angela and her family have set a goal to get to the temple by September!! :) And Nick is progressing very well, he's really excited to finally get baptized this Saturday!
FUNNY STORY:
We called this lady on the phone and about 3minutes into the call we realized that she was drunk. I tried to politely end the conversation but she kept insisting that she compliment me. She then kept repeating the same things and asked if we could call her again sometime before she gets to North Carolina in her minivan... so awkward... haha!
This week was tough, but a lot of great learning. That's the bitter sweet part of trials, cause you learn SO much from them! Have a great week, be safe and be strong!
Love,
Elder LaRose
