Week 74 NEW YEAR

New Years was awesome.   I got to see everyone who is leaving. Elder Merkley My trainer is going home, Elder Wood is going home as well and I'm so sad!

I sang in church on Sunday it was good the volume was turned down to much so they couldn't hear me as well but it was still good. I'll figure out how to record it for you. 

As far as investigators go it was not an eventful week except at the beginning. We taught Tom Nash the restoration and the Plan of salvation and he was very receptive. He said, " it just makes sense any normal human would agree would these things if they would just give us the chance. So many points of the plan of salvation and restoration make so much sense. I wish people would listen to our message sometime. Anyway we are trying to set up more lessons with him but work is so busy for him running his own buisness that its hard to schedule appointments. April is meeting with us this wed. and we are trying to set up a church tour with her this week! Other than that, that's pretty much the highlight of the work week! Hopefully we can continue to find people to teach!  I emailed dad a good chunk but hopefully this will be satisfying enough, sorry I'm just super exhausted.  Know I love you so much and can't wait to see you in 6 months! Love you❤💋
The member we lived with had some of the games on so during lunch I was getting a little action hahaha.   I miss watching college football! I can't believe Georgia won crazy!! Did you guys get 5 feet of snow? Maybe not... That's what somebody said! ! Dad I am so committed to playing basketball at UVU..  My shot is more accurate. I can't remember if I told you but when
 I was in Parker Jarrod Beckstead took me to lifetime fitness on a p-day. When I got there he told me that a bunch of college kids from Colorado State and CU Boulder come and play ball there. I steped in and played  5 on 5 with those guys just to see what I could do. Besides the fact that I was a little out of shape, I did well.   They asked me what school I'm playing at?  I told them that I'm on a mission for my church and that I don't play at school, They told me if I really work hard over the summer that I have a good shot at playing college ball. I need to get a little bulkier and fine tune some of my skills but even Elder Wood who plays for Southern Virginia University tells me that I would start at SVU right now. Woah! Obviously its just talk and what they have seen when playing them on P-day but I think I will learn a lot of life lessons by playing ball and proving to myself that when I work hard at something I can reach my goals. I have good feelings about it and good impressions so I have started doing jump work outs again and now I have a bench and 400 pounds of wait at the members house we live with and so I have been working out every morning and night. I want to be able to jump high. When I come home I want to start a vertimax or bounce kit workouts so I can jump higher. I'm very committed and very driven but I feel I have the work ethic this time to acheive it! I really want to do this.  Anyway, thought I'd let you know haha!

Elder beck and I are doing really well! This might be our last transfer together but we will see! oh yeah and my musical number was awesome. I didn't think it was appropriate to video in sac meeting so maybe I can record it another time. I need a pianist now is the problem. Oh my camera broke BTW. The screen is totally white it still works and takes pics I just cant see them lol.

Well I miss you a ton I can't wait to come home but I love being here on the Lord's mission and serving him full time! Never will I be able to do this again but my missionary work will never stop. I love you dad! Thanks for you example to me. Means more than you know.
