quick update

Dear Family and Friends,

Just a quick update this week, lot of miracles happening throughout the mission. We have a conference call every Tuesday night where everyone is able to unite in testimony and prayer to share miracles and receive training from President Guffey. It has really created a sense of being united with the rest of the mission. It's really cool.

We had Peter's Baptism last week! He already has two names of his ancestors that he'd like to take with him to to baptisms at the temple! We have another Baptism tonight at 7:00, more pictures from that to come. We've been greatly blessed! Another great blessing is many of the people I have taught and served throughout my mission are getting ready to go to the temple too. Lisa, the first person that I helped teach before she chose to be baptized already has been to the Temple! It is so great to be a part of this work! Nothing better! If you're not already, reach out to those around you through simply going about doing good. Example can be a powerful missionary tool, but inviting can also create opportunities that we may least expect. As I've heard it said, it's never a bad idea to be the "fat penguin" to break the ice on those gospel questions. Plus church media makes it so easy these days!! 

Look at LDS Pamphlets in the App Store. Also the brief 2-3 minute videos on the Mormon.org channel of YouTube are super simple and very effective. Have a fantastic week!!

I love you all!
