Mission Scripture

Yea, I know that I am nothing; as to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of myself, but I will boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things; yea, behold, many mighty miracles we have wrought in this land, for which we will praise his name forever.

Alma 26:12

About Me

I am a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. The Ohio Cincinnati Mission was dissolved and I have been reassinged to the West Virginia Charleston Mission. I am currently serving in Salem, Virginia. I am enjoying sharing the gospel. It is wonderful to watch people's lives change as they accept the gospel. I have learned that the Lord always listens to us and answers our prayers. I have enjoyed helping people. The service that I have given has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my mission.

From an Old Companion

Part 1: So the work here is going good. On saturday we got to do some service in Olive hill kentucky. Mom do you remember the flood that happened there. so yeah the stake president wanted alot of members from the stake to go there on sat and help out with the clean up and stuff. so we got a member to go with us and drive us so we could go help out. The flood was pretty bad. the whole town got hit pretty hard. so we had the privilege of going in and destroying the buildings and houses with water damage. So we just destroyed everything. it was fun. we also got to wear the yellow shirts for the church. the helping hands and everybody in the town knew who we were and were grateful for us. I will tell you more of it in the next email.

Part 2: Hey sorry guys, but i got kicked off the library computers again, but as i was saying. We got to go to Olive Hill and be a part of the Helping Hands. It was pretty fun. we had a pretty big group of about 10 missionaries from the surrounding areas and then about 20 or so members from the stake. I saw Elder Call and got to talk to him. That is all that he has been doing is just physical labor everyday until about 6. it is crazy. So it was nice to serve the people of olive hill and they were very thankful. Other than that, that was about the highlight of the week.
