Week 84 Amazing Week



Amazing week full of missionary work,  stretching from practicing musical numbers, finding new investigators, delivering mail and doing all those things missionaries do!
Incredible workweek, we had 5 non members at church this week,  8 return appointments for this week and super solid investigators to go along with it. It's nice we have been able to teach a lot recently and its awesome how far my teaching abilities have come. We have had really spirit packed lessons this last week. One with this guy Named Lupanda who is from the Congo, Justin Langly who is a college student at DU and Kirkland who happens to be Jewish so Jesus Christ is a difficult one for him to understand but we have been explaining it really well to him and he has been coming around. We are going to start teaching Mahdeen....he is the refugee from South Sudan and loved the church out there and wants to learn more about Christ. We will be teaching him twice a week.  We got back in contact with the Navajo family Tina and her kids. Right now the grandma is super interested. She came to church and wants to be baptized. We gave her a BOM and will be meeting with her this Saturday! I'm really excited to see how that goes!!We will be teaching a ton others this week and I will keep you posted on how those lessons go.

We had the Why I Believe fireside again which was super awesome!!! I composed a song called Peace in Christ. First song I have ever arranged but composed. I wrote out parts for the violin and cello and added another vocal part by adding a harmony on the Chorus. It came together really nice I wish you could have heard it. I'm happy with where my voice is at. I have definitely been improving over the last 2 years its been awesome. 

Our zone has had some crazy things happen. A new elder that has only been out a transfer has had such awful health problems president has decided to send him home to get better. They called us and asked to give the Elder  a blessing. I had the opportunity to give him a blessing and the words just came to me. I didn't think of them prehand but just had confidence the Lord would give me the words to say and it did. People share stories about giving blessings and how the spirit completely takes over and I felt that happen as I started to open my mouth. It was definitely one to remember. I even felt in the blessing for some reason that he was going to go home early and he got a call a day later not even expecting it to happen. We are getting a super awesome missionary in our zone and I'm excited because he plays and sing the guitar super well so we should be playing some music together!!


MLC this week was good. we recieved training for our  smart phones and I will be getting a loaner phone for now.  It's incredible the things we can do.


It  looks like and sounds like Izzy did super well!! 
Elder Braegger is a stud dad,  we work super well together. It's so nice to have a companion that wants to work hard. We both make each other better its great!
