Week 21 - Short Email




Hey everyone, I don't have much time to write today, so this isn't gonna be very long. We are going as a zone to Denny's and then to play soccer on a field we rented, so should be fun. Rockets and the Texans are killing it,

so Im pretty satisfied on that aspect. I'm pretty focused on the work but I will have to be honest, I miss watching sports all the time, so I love hearing about it all!


Update on this last week: The work has been good, its moving. There is a group of return missionaries in our ward that have their own soccer team that's in a league, and there are people who aren't members too, so we made a deal

to play with them if we could teach both teams afterwards,  We got like 5 new investigators from that! We played in uniforms and everything, was sooo cool haha, and apparently I shut it down on Defense, Ill send pics!


One of the reasons I am making this letter short this week is because I received some bad news that one of my dear friends and Rugby teammate passed away this week.

I am very preoccupied and devastated for this tragic news. I don't ask for prayers for me, but if everyone who reads this could take some time out of there day to send prayers to the family of my friend, It would make me happy.


I know that My Redeemer and Savior Jesus Christ lives. I have only been in the mission for 5 months, but my relationship with God and Testimony of the Atonement of Christ has grown so much. I am so thankful for his sacrifice. Christ suffered and died for us, 

that we may be forgiven through repentance and belief in him. He was resurrected, and through that action the pain and bitter taste of death is swallowed up in him. 

There is a live after this, we have a purpose, and if we choose to follow our path to Christ, we can find happiness in this life and the next. I send all my love out to everyone here. God be with you all.
