Week #90

Hey all! I'm doing good! Hope all is well with everyone. 

We are doing good and still teaching a few of our people over the phone. 

Alma 8:15 

15 Blessed art thou, Alma; therefore, lift up thy head and rejoice, for thou hast great cause to rejoice; for thou hast been faithful in keeping the commandments of God from the time which thou receivedst thy first message from him. Behold, I am he that delivered it unto you

I really like this scripture and know that when we have discouraging and tough times we can know that there is one person cheering us on all the time. That is Jesus Christ. All we need to do is do what He asks us to do and we can take comfort that He is proud of us for pushing through tough times. 

Love you all! Have a wonderful day and a great week!

We played basketball today with a few of the elders. 

Week #89

Elder Toller and his companions in isolation took part in the mission-wide challenge to create a video acting out  a Book of Mormon story. Enjoy!

          

                                                                                                                          

Week #88

Hey all! 

Well this has been a pretty interesting week. 

I am doing well and feeling healthy. A few days ago they decided to keep us inside and just do teaching through video calls. We can still go to the store and can go outside 3 times a day for exercise. So it's not a total lock down. 

So anyway, we have been teaching a few of our people on video calls and doing member video calls to share a message and it is going good. Thank goodness for technology! It truly makes missionary work even faster and also really efficient. 

I really like this quote by Elder Anderson..."Look back, remembering that you proved your worthiness in your premortal state.  You are a valiant child of God, and with His help, you can triumph in the battles of this fallen world. You have done it before, and you can do it again."

We can do hard things and it has been a part of ourselves since the pre-earth life. We knew life would be hard but we knew that we can handle anything. 

All is well! 

All is well! 

I really like this video by president Nelson. It truly is neat and you can tell he is a prophet of God.

Week #87

Howdy all! 

I am doing better and feeling great! This week was pretty good. It has been raining like crazy here and will keep raining until Thursday. So it's exciting times. Our mission is still doing well. We can't shake hands with anyone but that's the only real restriction. 

John 16:33 

33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

I love this scripture- it's great because especially when times are crazy we need to remember Christ is close to us and he can help us through these tough times. 

We had a neat experience doing the sacrament for a member. Earlier that day the member was having respiratory issues but as she took the sacrament she felt so much better. The member was super thankful for the opportunity to take the sacrament. I just felt like that experience was Christ saying it will all be alright and we will get through this tough time.  It was pretty neat to do a sacrament service at home. 

Hope all is going well! I'm doing great and feeling better! Thanks for being awesome and for the prayers! Have a great day and week! Love yall.

This was us at the top of our area the other day! 

Week #86

Hey all! 

John 14:18 

18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. 

I really like this scripture! Jesus Christ will always be with us as long as we are willing to have him with us. 

Everything is going good here!  It's truly a great time to be a missionary! 

Have a great day and great week! 

Love yall!
