"The Book of the Vent"

What a week it has been. I can definitely second what Luke said about how the mtc is a spiritual prison. The first couple days are crazy and rough. But now im enjoying it. Me and the boys have been hanging out in the dorms. Occasionally me and the district will go play some ping pong at night and then go get some ice cream at the byu creamery. The district always plays volleyball which is sweet. I played ball once and since I don't have bball shoes I rolled my ankle like 5 times and now my ankle is sore so sadly I got to stick to volleyball. Other than exercise and chilling in the dorms, all I do is go to class and study. Classes are great tho, brother budge carries the mornings. He is the man, he is one of the only cool people I've met that is part of the ROC. If any of you know what the roc is you know they are all weird. But brother budge is dope, love that guy. Our other teacher is sister rich and she's super nice but man that class is a snooze fest. It's in the afternoon and that doesn't help.


A big announcement about this week is that on Monday i got temporarily reassigned to Wichita Kansas. Ya I know it's epic. You might be surprised but I was actually hyped to get called there. Not for the place but because i have a 4 kids in my district going there so I'll fly out with them. So ya looks like I'm gonna be teaching the gospel in some corn fields.

Probably should explain the title of this email. Me and the district found some things in our vents. We found some very old queso and salsa. We also found a Jesus sandal and a book called the book of the vent. We found it in both of the rooms that my district are in. So there are 2 books. We started to add to the novel. I wrote my excerpt called "The Book of Larson". So if any of you future elders going to the provo mtc and get room 415 in the building R5, look for some presents in the vent.

Ill give a summary of the at home MTC. Basically class, card games, and chilling with the family. That's about it.

Also Sundays here are the best. So spiritual and have not felt the lords love more than on Sunday. He definitely is real and I recommend if you guys have time to go listen to uchtdorfs talk in the October 2009 general conference called "The love of God". 

Also, crazy thing happened. I'm on my way to class and a guy walks past me and has a giant bird on his shoulder. Apparently it just landed on him and followed him for the rest of the day.

Hope yall have a good week and love yall!!

Malo e lelei everybody! I hope that you have all had a wonderful week. I hope that each of you wished your mothers a happy mothers day. If you haven't, make sure to go do that now. I would also like to apologize for being terrible at writing emails every week, especially to my mother. It's been a busy few weeks, but they have been awesome. We got to go to the temple again last week. So that meant packing up and driving a van 7 hours up to Hamilton with a bunch of other missionaries. It was super fun, I love a good road trip. I'm so blessed to have gone on a couple temple trips while I've been serving here. It is not to easy to get up there, and it definitely isn't cheap. Each time I go I am reminded of God's Plan of Salvation. One of the things that really stood out to me this time is that when we sacrifice things in our life, it is a similitude to the Savior's sacrifice. Obviously, we can never compare our sacrifices to His ultimate sacrifice, but sacrifice...

Malo e lelei everybody!! This week was a pretty solid week. We kept super busy and had some success in our area. This week was transfers so we spent Monday to Thursday having meetings and planning for this next transfer. It is always a pretty stressful time, but we've made it and I won't have to do that again so I'm happy. We had a great MLC meeting on Wednesday. The spirit was super strong the whole time. It was definitely my favorite one that I have had. We had a lot of success with one of our friends that we found last week. Her name is Lili, I think I mentioned her last week. Anyways, this week we caught up with her and had a lesson. We set a date for baptism with her on the 27th of this month. She also came to church the next day and loved every minute of it. We have multiple members that are fellowshipping her. They have invited her to institute and other activities. It has been awesome to see. She is progressing so fast that I can't even keep up. Never in my miss...

Last month, last transfer

Kia ora whanau!! I hope you have all had a great week. This week was pretty solid. We had some miracles which was awesome. We were able to focus on our area a lot this week. We found some new people to teach and had some great lessons. I would like to share a miracle that happened this week. Last Wednesday in daily planning I felt inspired to continue knocking a street that we had knocked the week before. So, we planned for that. But, our schedule ended up getting pushed back because we got busy, and we had to decide whether we wanted to knock that street or do the things that got pushed back. I felt again that we should go and knock that street. So, we did. The very first door we knocked on was a girl named Lili. God had definitely been preparing her for us. She told us that she had just recently started to look for another church to attend. She also said that she was looking for people that could teach her about their church. We said "well here we are". We gave her a Book o...
