<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">Obedience is the key to blessings. It is how we show our love for our Father and for our Savior. I think that we have inspired leaders and I know that we will be led right when we follow them. I think when we have a prompting to something contrary to what a leader says, really ponder your course of action. As always, we have loyalty to our leaders but our most important loyalty is to the Lord and he will never lead us astray</span>Tynel Jarnaginhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16870988800212757061noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7939164654672116580.post-90084680318246836572017-06-08T17:51:00.003-04:002017-06-08T17:51:55.382-04:00A long overdue update<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">First off, Elder Jarnagin is doing great!

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; text-align: start;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">April 5- The Lord has been guiding me to learn and apply charity into my life, my last district training was about it, there were tons of conference talks about it, now it is something Elder Jones and I are working on. I fasted for charity and the Lord blessed me with times where I was stretched, and it was hard to have charity, but with His help I got through that. That is helping me grow to be more like my Savior already.</span></span></div>

And he had. With his body. Inside the trap. So he died (now known to be a she), she died in the trex trap and she had the teeth marks all over her body. All for a piece of Crave cereal. Then Elder Jones threw the body outside and a hawk caught it as it was falling. It is already lonely here. I wish the best to Stewart and I hope she is happily reunited with her little mousy family. I hope at the last day I can go up to her and 1, be able to communicate, 2, say, “sorry I killed you. I just really didn’t appreciate the poop on the countertops.” </span></span></span></div>

Things are going a lot better in the District. Today we don't have the miles to go to Carson so we are chilling here, playing card games together. Being a District Leader is teaching me how to powerfully teach in all sorts of situations, group and one on one, and how to expand my feelings of charity towards more people. It's pretty awesome to learn and grow like this! . We got rear ended and it was 0% our fault. Yes our car does need a few dents fixed and we had to get the bike rack replaced. I love you both! Have a wowie week!</span></span></div>

One miracle I saw on exchanges was we were contacting a man who we had an address but not an apartment number. We prayed and got out and a lady came over and talked to us. She ended up being a referral for another set of missionaries. She showed us to a door that wasn't it but as we stood there a man came up behind us and we asked for the guy we were looking for. The man knew exactly who it was and brought us to the correct home! Super Milagro!</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"> </span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">After a day full of taking care of our cars (washing, vacuuming, waxing), our Zone got together and we had a talent show. There were some cool ones. I didn’t pick earlier, so they had me do wheelbarrow…. We then did some sports and then came back down here for dinner with the Hansens. They were nice and they remembered Elder Choi and Short and really liked them. I hope to leave a legacy of members fondly remembering when I was here, it helps me try my best to be a good example to everyone.</span><br />

I got to see Elder Gurr and that was super good! He seems to be doing really well with managing his stress! The trainings were good, talking about dealing with stress, being baptism minded and how to best extend the baptismal invitation. I really learned a lot! At the end of every Zone Conference, we have a testimony, where the Elders and Sisters that are going home and have finished their missions share their final testimonies. This one was pretty tough. The two elders were Elder Jackman and Elder Leon and I have known them and seen them throughout the mission. It is weird to see them leave. It really is great to see how they have changed for the better. We then went to visit more people that we didn’t know and it led us to a dirt road that we only survived because of the clearance on our jeep. It was real pretty and it actually saved us a bunch of miles! We then came home and did language study! Today was awesome!</span></div>

We woke up to a text from RJ saying call him immediately. We texted him and he got back to us like <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2029718827" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">two hours later</span></span>. Before that we went on a “morale boosting” trip to the other Elders apartment to make breakfast with them to make sure they don’t die and stuff. That was pretty good, they were in high spirits when we left. We got ready and then RJ called back and told us about one Michael who was less active and wanted to meet with us immediately. We called and set up an appointment for 10, in like an hour from then. We then planned and I wrote more of my talk and then we went to see Michael. We got to know him and his story, he has had a ruff past and wants to change his ways. We set up appointments every day we are in town at 6 so that was good and will be good. We then went up to Tahoe and grabbed some lunch and then we went to a lesson with John and Alexis. It was really good, we answered some of John’s concerns about the Book of Mormon and then we taught the Plan of Salvation. It was good and they still seem to be very open and we used a ton of scripture and it was way cool. Then we went to Darrians for dinner and a lesson. We taught pray often and read daily and used a lot of scriptures for that and it was really good. The whole focus of the lesson was to get Darrian and Adam reading and praying together and they are already doing that so that was pretty cool.</span></div>

We went to morning program and then we came back. I showered and then went down to eat and Elder Jones did the opposite. I came upstairs to find him laying on the ground in the bathroom with his dirty clothes over his head. The migraines struck again. One thing I love about Elder Jones is that he is determined. He got up from the bathroom floor and went to his bed but was determined to plan. I tacked my blanket to the window so that it was dark enough for him. We then planned out the day. After that, I got to do like an hour and a half of personal study and that was real great. I got to finalize my talk for <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2029718828" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">tomorrow</span></span> and prepare part of District Meeting. Then I did some cleaning and whatnot and by then it was 12 so we had lunch. Then Elder Jones slept more and then he was feeling good enough to go to service and that was good. We helped out a guy named James get rid of a bunch of stuff and it was way chill moving everything. Then we came back and Elder Jones was still feeling awful so he rested and I read. We then went to a lesson with Michael again and we read the rest of the intro and shared some spiritual thoughts. </span></div>

Elder Jarnagin has been writing weekly and is doing fantastic, but as his mom and head blog updater, I have been slacking.<br />
<br />
Here's a look at his past 5 weeks-<br />
Elder Jarnagin was transferred to Gardnerville, NV and is serving in that area, as well as in South Lake Tahoe and covering any Spanish needs in the area. He is also serving as the District Leader and learning so much.<br />
<br />
From February 27th-<br />

<br />From March 6th-<div>
Elder Jarnagin was asked by the Young Men's president here in NH what was one hard thing he's had to do on his mission and how that hard thing has blessed his life... Here's his response-</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
"I think one of the hardest things that I have done on my mission is trying to help a companion that struggled with anxiety and homesickness. It was really hard because I had not dealt with it before and I have not really dealt with what he was feeling. It is really hard to help a companion when you can't emulate. To deal with the problem, his anxiety, my own feelings, everything, I turned to the Lord. That really is the best thing to do in any trial, turn to Him who knows all and has conquered all. Jesus Christ knows what we are all feeling and what we will feel. He has already suffered for our sins and all that we will go through. He knows how it feels to be homesick, and anxious, and impatient. When I turned to Him, I was able to be less stressed, I was able to become more like Him, and in doing so I was better able to help my companion work through what he was going through. When we humbly turn to the Lord, we can find the strength to make it through any trial that besets us! I know that is true!"</div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">I was on exchanges with Elder Franco. I found out I am allergic to Green or bell peppers….. Like bad. We did morning program and then we planned. We then made breakfast which was breakfast burritos which was more peppers than egg. My vision started to go while cooking and eating. I couldn’t see my plate to eat my food. We got ready and I was feeling better until studies where I couldn’t see my page and my head felt really bad. I tried to use the bathroom, but to no avail. I then sat on a foam pad in the bathroom for an hour until I threw up. I then cleaned myself off and then we went to a lesson with this guy named Ryan who doesn’t believe that God loves him so we talked to him </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">about that for an hour.</span></div>

My (Mom's) Early morning Seminary class is studying the epistles of Paul. I had asked parents, adults, leaders, and friends of my students to write a modern day epistle to my students. Here is Elder Jarnagin's Epistle-</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
Epistle of Elder Jarnagin</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
It is good that you are where you are at right now. Seminary really is a great place, one of learning and one that I am so grateful that I was able to participate in. It really is a sacrifice to get up earlier and to come and to get ready to learn. Even if you are forced by your parents, you are showing good desires by coming. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
That is what this whole thing is about, our desires. What do you desire? Do you want to live with your family forever? Do you want to be happy forever? Do you want to live with Christ and Heavenly Father forever? I would be sad if you said no to any of those, these which are all parts of eternal life are the greatest blessings that we can have, and living a life worthy of those blessings is a blessing in of itself. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
Now that you have those desires, how are you going to get there? What are you willing to give? What are you willing to give up? There are many things that we have to set aside in life and things that we have to do in order to receive the greatest blessing of all. These teenage years are hard, I know, I have been where you are right now, I am not much further down the path than you. I know that what you are faced with daily is hard, some of the things we go though are unlike anything any people of the past had to go through. When you are trying your best to live the Gospel and the commandments, most of those around you are doing the opposite and are trying to drag you with them. Don't let them do that. There is so much more in store than what you can see and what you can feel now. It requires faith but the blessings of Gospel living are there; I know, I am feeling them now. Living the commandments brings a joy that I had never felt before, it comes with feeling the Spirit more strongly. There are some things that you need to do right now to feel the Spirit more strongly in your life. Feeling the Spirit starts with living worthy, and that means cutting unworthy things out your life. There are so many excuses that you can make, "oh, it's not that bad" "It's just a little" "I'll figure it out when I go on a mission" No! No excuse works! If there is something unworthy that you are doing whether it be breaking a commandment or bad music, language, whatever, you know it is bad! Stop doing it, using it, whatever! It many be hard, but you can do it! I promise you as a representative of Jesus Christ that the moment you take the proper steps to rid your life of sin and unworthy actions that you will feel the Spirit more strongly than you have ever felt and that you will taste of the joy that comes from His companionship.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
There are laws of commission, things that we do that make the Spirit leave. Then there are laws of omission, things that we don't do that if we did do them we would have the Spirit more. Some of those things are the "Seminary answers". I hope that when you answer a question with "Prayer, scripture reading, going to church" That you mean it. These things are vital. Out here in the field, when we talk about those three, we call them CPR (Church, Pray, Read) and remember that CPR is that thing they do so people don't die. I love it when people don't die. When we don't read, pray, go to church, we are spiritually dying, that's not good! I don't like it when people spiritually die! I can promise you that if you SINCERELY do all these things and not just because your parents force you, that you will feel better than you ever have before! Don't miss the opportunity to get closer to your Savior! Really read, don't just skim on your phone. Skim milk is gross, it's like white water, no one wants colored water when they want milk. Drink whole milk. It's super good, just like studying the scriptures. Don't do a skim study, do a WHOLE study! It's way better! Way more spiritually tasty. Really Pray, the all powerful creator of us, and everything, our own father is right there, waiting for us to talk to Him, to ask Him for the things we need. Go to church! Really go to church, don't just sit in a church building and derp on Facebook or send snaps of your bored mug to all your friends, really go to church! Listen to the speakers, to the Hymns, to the Sacrament prayers. There is a peace that you will feel, again, going to church is so vital to feeling the Spirit. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<br /></div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">To wrap this up, it may seem like this has gone all over the place, but really it still is about our desires. Do you desire to be happy? Then you need to have the Holy Ghost as your constant companion. If you want the Holy Ghost as your companion then you need to really do the things you are supposed to, and you need to mean it. This life is a test, and it is a choice, if you don't want to be happy, fine, no one is forcing you. But if you want to be forever joyful, here is the path, take it or leave it. Your older brother, Jesus Christ, is beckoning you to follow Him, He knows the way, and if you follow Him, you will never be lost. I have found no greater joy than following my Savior's path, becoming like Him, serving Him. The same course is open to you, if you desire it. I close this in His Holy name, even Jesus Christ, amen. </span><br />

We drove back and showered and tried to visit some people.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">We had District Meeting of course and that was pretty good. It was on studies again. After the meeting we went over to Fernley to start our exchange. I am with Elder Smith and Elder Soto up here in Fernley. We stopped by this less active guys house to drop off a map and share a spiritual thought. We had a lesson with a less active member about the power and importance of faith. We then taught Rick the end of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It has been a good day! </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today has been really good. Elder Gurr was regular sick, but he pushed through and we had a good day. We went to the Greenhouse and had a good time helping out there. We have been listening to some Hank Smith talks and that has been great. For one, they are funny, and two, they are motivational. I think we have had some real bonding listening to those talks. We listened to one last night before bed and we listened to half of one this morning. We finished it up at lunch. We then had Weekly Planning which was good. We are getting faster. We again had a really good companionship inventory. We talked about what Elder Gurr is stressing about now and it’s about me leaving and him taking over the area. This was good in my mind, it’s a problem focused on the now and one I could really relate to. I felt prompted to not tell him what I thought but to roleplay it and have the spirit work on him. I pretended to be a person with a lot of questions about the plan of salvation and I showed him how to apply the concepts into his mission. It was really good and I felt really close to him again. We then went out and took a survey in preperation for a mission tour in April. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today was pretty interesting. I woke up at 6 this morning to get ready so that I could still have my full hour of study. After study and planning and whatnot we headed up to Fallon for interviews. President said that I will be transferred, so now it’s official. We then came back and had a really good lesson with the Jackson family. We read “A Witness of God” by Elder Anderson. Brother Jackson really liked it. We then did lunch and comp study and then headed out. We walked the town and set up a couple of appointments so that was good. We then went and saw the Freemans and set an appointment for… the night after transfers. I told them I was leaving and Karen promised cinnamon bread so I’m 5 pumped for that. We then went to the Christensens for dinner and it was Hawaiian haystacks and I think I haven’t had those since I left to come here so that was pretty cool. We were able to help Brother Christensen bless one of his children and that was really cool, he was really grateful. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today has been real good! We had a great P-Day where we got a lot of good things done. We started the day with studies, of course and that was good. We then went over to the church and emailed, which, guess what, that was good too! We then came back and went ham with the cleaning of our apartment. Our pipes have been clogged for like 3 weeks and I think we got it unclogged today! So mission accomplished on that! We then did haircuts and I think that Elder Gurr is my best mission barber and I think I am getting better at doing the back of his head for him. So that was good because +3 style points. We then napped which was definitely good. I then wrote a letter to Sister Buker and Elder Gurr played with his puzzle. I’m glad he likes puzzles. We then sent the letter and he sent some of his Christmas stuff home. We bought McDonald's and ate that at the apartment and had a Bible Video movie marathon! That was really cool! We then headed out and saw the Bryants and this was probably the last in mission time that I will see them. That was pretty sad, but I know they are going to do great progressing in the Gospel! We then walked and tried to set some stuff up but no one was home. We then went and did the BoMI with the Christensen family and that was good! They were pretty excited to do it! I can see now how the BoMI and how active member lessons can increase member trust! Now we are here. Oh! And super cool miracle! Gale Jacobson texted us back! We have an appointment with her <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1514687079" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">tomorrow</span></span>!

Or in other words, happy half birthday eve! Jk. It’s been a super awesome day. We had District Meeting and that was good. The topic of it was still studies, this time with a focus on answering people's questions. The Fernley Elders also made like over 100 cookies and so we ate those with lunch and that was cool. We then came back and went to teach Gale! It was kind of a stressful lesson because we brought Brother Rowley and he talked the whole time and we didn’t get to teach. He also went way too deep so that was no bueno.. We then went to Jim Button and that lesson was quite miraculous. He had a realization that he needed to repent. That was pretty cool to see and we testified that he could repent, and that all things are possible through Christ’s Atonement. We then went to dinner with the Hunt’s and had fondue and it was super good. We then did the BoMI with the Jackson’s and that was pretty good. We then went to Silver Springs to start exchanges so now I am here with Elder Bentti. It will be another good day <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1514687080" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">tomorrow</span></span> as it has been today!</span></div>

We had studies and a big breakfast, we always do some intense breakfast on exchanges. We then went to the Greenhouse and did some service there. It was pretty good. We then came back and did lunch and then we did Companionship study and Language study. We then went out to Smith valley and tried to see everyone. We only saw the Smith family, and they were good. We followed up on the Book of Mormon with Brother Smith and he is still reading it so that is awesome! We left from there and we were going to try a family far to the south when we got a call from Sister Tate in the ward. She said that Brother Adams, a older sick man that lives with her needed a blessing. During studies I had read about Alma and Amulek IMMEDIATELY going and healing Zeezrom when he asked for it. We decided to do that and immediately go. We got there and I felt like I should do the anointing so I did. Elder Bentti then gave the blessing and he felt like Brother Adam's life was up. He was scared to say he would die but he worded it in a way that the blessing would make sense if he lived or died. It was a very spiritual experience. It is amazing how important that when we get a prompting that we immediately go and do as the Lord commands us, through the Holy Ghost! </span></div>

We started off with a good morning, my personal schedule allotted me a lot of extra time and that was cool. Brother Rowley called during studies to ask to change coordination to 1. So we went and worked at the Greenhouse and today we got rid of useless, broken, and drawn in books. They had one book, for example called how to use a small computer from the 80’s and the “small computer” was almost as big as my desk. We then came back to the house to have lunch. After that, we went over to the church and made our copies and by then we should have had coordination but Brother Rowley was half an hour late. The meeting itself was good, nice and fast. We then came back to do companionship study and 12 weeks. After we had planned to go to Susan but we decided to call first. She talked for about and hour and during that the Cirones, who we had dinner with today, called three times. After Susan hung up we called them and rushed over for dinner, which was good. We then came back. Our lessons for the night had cancelled and Elder Gurr is starting to stress again so we walked around town, trying to set up appointments, but no one was there. We then came back and did language study. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">So today has been pretty interesting. A good interesting for sure. We started off with all the good ol’ morning stuff. We had a lesson with Eric Soto set for 3 today where we would be reading 1 Nephi 11 and 12. In my second copy of the Book of Mormon, my leather one, I was in 1 Nephi 3 so after I did reading in my other copy and some stuff in Preach My Gospel I went ham reading my leather copy. I was adding all the tabs but still reading fast, I thought. I only got through 1 Nephi 8 but that was still good. I definitely “feasted” on the words of Christ. We then left to go see Susan, but she wasn’t home. We then went to try Janna who was eating breakfast or something. So we went to try the Thompsons. They are definitely warming up to us! We left feeling good and smelling like cigarettes.. :P Then we headed up to see the Nish family who is going down to Texas next week. We shared part of Lehi’s dream and talked about holding fast to the rod. We got out of there “behind schedule” so we went to go do lunch and all of the rest of our studies. Oh, and also Eric Soto cancelled again. By the time we finished studies we had time to change, grab some handouts and go to Schurz for their missionary open house. The branch over there is like 5 cute. We got there and no one really showed up for the first hour. President and Sister Chesnut showed up about a half hour late, they got super lost. We stood at the door, waiting for people to come and then we decided that we could check out the other rooms to see what they had set up. When we were in the primary room, President came in and said basically that I was leaving and asked us if we were both prepared for that. He then pulled me out and called me to be District Leader…. Gulp. I don’t think that has sunk in yet all the way, but it will. Probably when I am giving my first district training… Yep. That was cool though, I am excited to have another way to learn and grow and to serve my fellow missionaries. After that, it seemed like no one was showing up so we did the talks portion of the program anyways. They called us up to speak and thank goodness I studied 1 Nephi 8 this morning. I used that and talked about how converts will be rooted in the Gospel when they have a testimony of the divinity of the Book of Mormon. It was good and I can tell that my talking in front of everyone skills are developing, even though I still sweat buckets. President and Sister Chesnut spoke as well and that was super good. After the talks an investigator family showed up! We introduced ourselves to them and that was super cool! After that, people started leaving and we stayed and talked to the members for a bit and now we are back here! This next transfer will be one of growth!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">So today has been pretty good. I was trying to keep my leaving on the DL (down low), but that didn’t work out too well… In PEC this morning Brother Rowley announced it, and then he did again in Gospel principles, and then Brother Boxley announced it in Elder’s Quorum. So yeah, so much for slipping away without anyone seeing me. Classes and sacrament meeting were good. What stood out was just saying goodbye to everyone. I said goodbye to Brother Rowley and that was way sadder than I expected. We did the BoMI with the Boxleys after church and we talked about how I am leaving and they said they would miss me. Brother Boxley said the closing prayer and got super teary when he prayed for us. We all got pretty teary. Boy am I going to miss it here. After church we did lunch and companion study which was pretty good. I taught Elder Gurr how to teach the Restoration and the Plan of Salvation together and that was pretty cool. We then went out to Susan’s who wasn’t there but we dropped off a large print copy of the Book of Mormon. We then came back and walked around, trying to set up appointments. We do that a lot, it helps Elder Gurr not stress and he sure was today, enough to where he was starting to get sick. So yeah, today was mitigation… At least I think that is the right word. We had a good dinner with the Christensen family, the parents of Brother Christensen. We talked about the scriptures which was 5 cool. We then went up north to try peeps, no one was there, so we came back and did 12 weeks and Language study. Language study was regular, but 12 weeks was good. We did the self assessment and reviewed all of Chapter 1 in Preach My Gospel. I thought it was pretty good, all really just to assure Elder Gurr that he is a successful missionary. Now he is done with training and that’s pretty cray cray. Now we await transfer calls >.< *butterflies* Ohh! And one miracle was that Jim Button came to church and we had given him Pero and now he has given up coffee! That was so cool to see! He says he is getting more Pero and throwing out his coffee! What a miracle!</span></div>

It will be pretty interesting to go and serve there! My new companion is Elder Jones, he came out with Elder Gurr so it will be cool to see what these next transfers hold! </span></span><br />

We started the day with a little personal study which was good and I studied about church tours to refresh my memory on that. We then had to leave at like <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1005661545" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">8:40</span></span> and that was weird. We had to go to District Meeting early because of the new schedule changes. We were getting ready to start talking about the changes when President walks in. That equals intensity intensifying. We then talked about the changes and they are pretty intense to say the least. From the time we get up to <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1005661546" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">10 o’clock</span></span> it is up to us what we do to prepare ourselves for the day. Like, if we want to take a long time to take a breakfast or take a long study. So yeah, they want all of us outside at <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1005661547" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">10 AM</span></span> every day. I guess its going to help with missionaries who have depression and stress and stuff. After that, we had District Meeting and it was really good! President came to that too and we talked about casual and exact obedience and it was a really good check for me to make sure I was doing all I could to be obedient. We came back and had a church tour with Jim Button and Brother Rogers and that was good. Brother Rogers basically took lead and that was good because I think it helped their friendship grow more. </span></div>

We were like “Is there something we can do to help you?” And she was like, “If you don’t get on your knees and pray you are Satan’s people” Also, because we smiled we were satanic… So yeah, then she got down and said the Lord’s Prayer. Then the cops got her. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today has been pretty awesome! We started out the day with the new schedule and that was 5 weird. We did a little bit of exercise and then got ready and chilled for a bit. It was super weird because we did all of that and it was only like 8 and then we made a big breakfast. Still really weird. Then we planned after that. Weird. Then we had personal study at 9. Weird. Then we left and all that. It was so weird because I felt terrible doing all of that and it was a battle of what I have always known and what I now know. It was weird. It really is cool. Yeah, it will get some getting used to but it is what the Lord wants. Elder Gurr and I went over to Mason Valley Residency to give Elizabeth Wellman a blessing. She was in a ton of pain because she fell and broke a leg at age 92. We gave her the blessing and she was so thankful. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I just had a really cool experience that I wanted to put in. My oil vial popped yesterday and spilled out all my consecrated oil. Today, I decided one of the things I could do “to bring to pass much righteousness” with my time this morning would be to consecrate more oil. I am not the best at consecrating oil because I have only done it twice before. Today I did the prayer but I jumbled through it a bit. I closed the prayer and I was wondering if Heavenly Father had accepted it. As I stood there pondering I felt the spirit wash over me, testifying that that was acceptable. It was a wonderful experience because now I understand more what the scriptures mean when they say the Holy Spirit of promise. It was a wonderful feeling and it really brought that knowing that what I had done was acceptable.</span></div>

It’s the first time that we have done the new extended P-Day and that was pretty good. I think it will be even better when I get to a bigger city again. Then, we stayed in for a bit and then went thrift shopping and I found a tie and some sick flags so it was chill. We emailed and then came back and napped for an hour or so. We then went to dinner with the Iveys. Brother Ivey is the Stake Patriarch and dinner over there is always really good. I especially like dinner there because they are just so missionary minded so conversations are always on point. We committed them to do the Book of Mormon initiative and they were pretty pumped to start that! We then went and tried some people over in Mason and no one was there except the Thompson family. They let us in and we were just trying to set up a dinner or something. We ended up talking to them for quite a while, and it was really neat because we got to talk to Brother Thompson. He never comes out, he usually stays in the back room. This time and he came out and actually talked to us about his work which was really cool. He watches the acid ponds here and is de-aciding them. That was cool to find out. </span></div>

We had exchanges and we also had a worldwide missionary broadcast and that was super cool. We saw most of what they talked about coming like the new schedule that we are already using. That was pretty cool. We had a good day down in Silver Springs, and a couple of good lessons. I decided today that I would rather live in Sun Valley than Silver Springs, it’s pretty ghetto. Anyways, the whole day was kind of weird because it felt like I was a junior companion in a new area and I haven’t felt like that in a while. It was also super weird to try to be switching off with a trio again. It was still a super good day, Elder Smith, Soto, and I all bonded really well and Elder Smith planned more of the 2k18 summer trip. It was pretty good and now I am down in Yerington again!</span></div>

We went over to the Greenhouse and went ham sorting the books and they are looking better and better. It was funny because there was a ton of JW’s (Jehovah's Witness's) there. It was cool because we were all doing what we could to help and serve as the Master served. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today has been awesome! We got to go see Susan, first thing in the morning and she was really happy to see us. We stacked her firewood for 3 hours and got a nice big pile. We had a pretty cool experience. We were going to do a lesson with her but then I realized that it would be super awkward and forced, so we decided to invite her to church, because that felt better, more right. She was super excited when we invited her! We got a ride all set up and everything and she is coming tomorrow! I set a goal on Thursday that I would exercise portion control and so since then, everyone gives us tons of treats! -_- I don’t know if I am happy or sad….. </span></div>

We had an interesting P-day to say the least… We had planned to leave to Fallon at 10 to go to racquetball and we were like 5 pumped for that. We went over to the church to email and I forgot all my pictures and stuff and was like 5 bummed about that. We got a call from the Zone Leaders saying we were banned from doing racquetball… forever…. We call Sister Cliften and Nathan Johnson to let them know and they were super bummed too. We decided we would hike Wilson Canyon at 11. We show up and Sister Cliften still is super bummed and doesn’t want to even do the hike. Nathan said he knew about some arch down at the bottom of the valley that we could try. We all decided to do that instead. We drove like 10 miles south past the last home in the valley. We eventually found the arch. It wasn’t that bad of a hike, super short, super steep. We got up there and took pics which was sweet but Elder Gurr and I hiked to the summit. Tough is the word for that part. It was steep and snowy and wet, and I had running shoes on. Not the best for snow. Anyway, I also haven’t used a lot of hiking muscles, I usually use my preaching muscles. We get up there and it was cool for a lot of reasons. One, it was just so peaceful up there, there is something special about feeling the spirit at the top of a mountain. The snow made it so silent, talk about truly being out of the world. It was also really cool because we could see both Smith and Mason valleys… at the same time. That was cool, and it was fun sliding down as well. When we got to the bottom, we hiked along a riverbed and saw a frozen waterfall. All this hiking in frozen/snowy/muddy terrain reminded me of home and that was pretty funny. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today has been pretty good. We are currently on exchanges. Elder Bentti is down here with me and it is pretty sweet. Also, I got my bag and it is pretty sweet. It is super big so more room for more stuffs! We had a pretty good lesson with Jim Button. We talked a lot about prayer and he liked that a lot. He still is pretty non committal about coming to church still. He was very happy to see us. We then went to see the Funks and we got to see Sister Funk. She gave us a cake and we talked about a trial they are going through with one of their workers. We talked about fasting and prayer and that was good. That’s about it besides I saw a porcupine. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today has been pretty good! We had the end of our exchanges and that was pretty good. Elder Bentti has a point, a 24 hour exchange in Yerington is kind of useless. We don’t get that much done because of all the travel we have to do so that’s weird. We were doing our morning stuff and all and for studies Elder Bentti decided to rearrange/clean Elder Gurr’s desk. We then had to go and drive up to Fernley to end exchanges. I felt all depressed on the ride home and I don’t know why and it was pretty weird. We then weekly planned and got that done. We had another really good companionship inventory just about helping Elder Gurr cope and that was great. I felt really close to him after that. We then went to the Bryant’s house for dinner and a lesson. Brother Ehly’s car was there and I was pretty confused and then it clicked that Brother Ehly was their new home teacher! We were pretty excited about that. We had french toast for dinner and it was awesome. After that, Brother Ehly got to know them better and by then it was time to leave. We went over to the church to print out copies of the weekly planning for this week and then we came back here to do language study. Today has been awesome!</span></div>

We had to basically get up and go to Zone Conference. When we got there our zone was there, but the Carson City zone wasn’t there yet and that was kind of weird. They showed up kind of late. The conference itself was good (see notes). It was cool to see Elder Franco and Elder Abbott and talk with them. We went over and saw Gail Jacobson, she was a referral from Brother Bohner. She has been feeling like she should investigate the church for 5 years now and now she is starting. She literally said to us “I’m interested”. That does not happen. That was so cool! We then went and tried knocking on a couple less actives door’s and no one was home. We then went to the Cliftens and picked up some dessert and then we went to the church to have a little dinner. Then we came home and did our studies. It has been a great day! </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 11pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today has been pretty good. We had coordination in the morning and we gave a typed copy of our weekly planning to Brother Rowley and he kind of fan-girled about that. That was funny. He also signed up to feed us again today. We then went up to the Landa’s house for a quick lunch and the Book of Mormon Initiative. That was really awesome, they were the first family that had someone in mind and it was really cool to see the drive that came from that. We then left and went to Smith Valley. There, we ended up seeing the Funks and Brother Schofield. We saw him first, he was making a couple of doors outside and we talked for a bit. We haven’t been able to see them in about 2 months so it was good to invite him to church. He says he feels so sad he wants to cry in there and that he feels really lonely. It was good in a way to find that out so hopefully we can help him come back now. We saw the Funks and set up an appointment with them. We then went over to pizza with the Rowleys and that was good. It is hard to portion control with pizza. </span></div>

We had a great dinner with the Funks with venison meat in the spaghetti. The Funks were so awesome! Sister Funk had a lot of great questions about if she would have a calling and what we do in temple. It was great because it led right into our lesson with them! She said something that was awesome, she said that she wanted to know what happens in the temple “Because that’s my next goal right?” Right Sister Funk, we were so excited to hear that! We had a wonderful conversation about the temple and they understood and accepted it all really well!</span></div>

We got there and in their own words “The house was trashed” So we ended up going to a sports restaurant. It was pretty good and it was fun to catch up because we really haven’t seen them in about a month so we got to ask about their Christmas and New Years. They have been doing good! They wanted to just do the lesson there so we ended up teaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ right there. They really really liked it! We set them with the <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_257028760" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">11th of February</span></span> as their baptismal date. They were all pretty nervous but we reassured them they would be ready. We gave Isaiah a Book of Mormon and committed him and Aubrey to read it. Sister Bryant had some questions about what she was reading and they all committed to come to church! We are so excited for them to continue to learn and grow! </span></div>

I would say that lesson was our miracle today. I focused on really listening to him and I think that helped a lot. We had a great discussion about the prophets and dispensations and we really focused on checking for understanding. Because we did that I think he really understood. I would rather teach half a point a lesson and have them understand it than teach them a full lesson. After the lesson with Bruce Elder Gurr’s headache had increased so we came back so he could rest. I finished the book of Mark so that was pretty cool. Then we went to dinner with the Youngs and they told some cool stories that they had heard about the temple. Then we came back because our two appointments cancelled and Elder Gurr still feels like crap. I’m sooo hoping he feels better tomorrow!</span></div>

Elder Gurr is feeling like crap again and so I just sit here, reading. I wish we could be out, even if it dropped a couple of inches of snow. Actually, that makes it easier to meet new people by offering service. Anyways, I’m just bored and I feel terrible that Elder Gurr feels terrible. I want him to get better, but I just don’t know what to do. :(</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today has been a lot better! Elder Gurr was feeling better and he pushed himself so we actually stayed out and proselyted most of the day! We did our morning studies and 12 weeks and he seemed as sick as usual but more determined. After that we had lunch and weekly planning, led by him, and he did a great job! One of the things that stuck out from planning was when we were planning the lesson to have with Jim Button. Neither of us really knew what we needed to teach him to help him come to church, we knew he was uncomfortable, but we didn’t know what to teach to help him. I decided that we needed to pray. When we had said the prayer we looked up and we both felt like we needed to do a church tour. It was a strange thought for me because I have always used church tours to help people to come to church for the first time, but we decided to follow the prompting. After planning, we decided to go and visit Jim and invite him to church and to do a church tour with us on Tuesday. At first, he seemed pretty hesitant but then he seemed to get pretty excited about it and that was really cool to see! After that, it seemed like Elder Gurr had hit his limit so we came back to the house and he rested for another 50 minutes of so. We then went to dinner at the Thompson families house. They are a nice Part-Member family that are really nice to us. They had dinner all made and told us we were in a second home there, that was pretty cool. We got to know them better and to understand where they are coming from. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today was 7 awesome… Out of 5. We had our regular studies and that was pretty good, we did a pretty fun street contacting role play. After Companion and Personal studies we left and tried to visit some potentials around our house and then we came back for a lunch and Elder Gurr rest break. Then we drove up to Reno for the mission wide conference with Elder Christofferson. #MissionHistory. Literally this was the first time in the history of our mission where the whole mission has been in one place. East Side came to the West Side and this is literally the first time that that has happened. It was really cool to see friends from all over that I haven’t seen in half a year. So that in of itself was awesome. The best part of course was the meeting itself. The spirit was so strong in that meeting. We were told to arrive at <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_257028761" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">1:30</span></span>, a half-hour before the actual meeting started and so we sung hymns as a mission and that was so cool, the spirit was so strong. Then, Elder Christofferson walks in and the spirit felt even stronger. We all kept standing as we sung the last verse of I know my Redeemer Lives and that was so amazing. We then had the Chestnuts bear their testimonies and that was amazing. After that, Elder Larkin bore powerful testimony of the power of being on God’s side and that was amazing. Elder Pearson then spoke about giving our all on our missions and in doing that we can prove to ourselves what our true capacity is. That was so awesome. After that, Elder Christofferson spoke. He didn’t really have a topic, he answered our questions. It was really amazing, a lot of the questions centered around how do we become as spiritual, or as consecrated, or have faith like him, and what he does to grow it. It was pretty cool because all the things he does to spiritually grow are the simple things the scriptures tell us to do, same as we should be doing. It really was a wonderful thing because what he said was directed directly at us and he was such an example of following the spirit, you could tell that that was what he was doing the whole time. I felt so inspired to always make sure everything I did was devoting myself to the Lord. It was such an awesome experience. </span></div>

<span style="vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today was pretty good! Elder Gurr made it thought the whole day! We had a wonderful sacrament meeting, the sacrament, of course, was great, and the talks were great. Brother Darrington spoke about potatoes and how we are all potatoes. True story. All potatoes have differences and different talents that are all needed in the gospel. We went up to the Nish’s and saw them and they were so happy to see us again. When we left we asked if there was anything we could do for them and they said “Come back!” That was touching, knowing that we are wanted back, it is always nice to know. We also saw Brother Rusk and same thing with him, he was happy to see us and expressed that and told us to come back. We then had dinner with the Cliftens and that was great, they were having a slight argument, so they were extra sassy today. That was pretty funny. After that, we came back and had studies and planned and updated records and all that jazz. So yeah! This week has been pretty good and the next will be even better!</span></span>Tynel Jarnaginhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16870988800212757061noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7939164654672116580.post-53860021996849564812017-01-10T23:46:00.000-05:002017-01-10T23:46:30.414-05:00Senators & Seals, Funks Baptized!, & Floodito<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">So I just got this AlphaSmart in the mail <i>(An Alpha Smart is a word processor- think one step above a typewriter, but below a computer. It's the most techy gadget he is currently allowed.)</i>. I just finished emailing and we get back and there is a package on the doorstep. I check it out and it is for me...From someone in South Carolina… so I open it, half expecting drugs or a bomb or something and it is the AlphaSmart I asked Mom for for Christmas.. Oops. I decided this year that whatever was wrapped I would save till Christmas day, this is not wrapped so I will start journaling and what not on here. Lol</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">0.0 I have just done the scariest thing of my life. We are currently cleaning up the apartment and Elder Gurr knows how to cut hair so we did that too. He gave me a pretty sweet haircut, I look kind of like a Marine now! #sweetness! After mine was done and I showered and got ready again, he called me back to do part of the back of his head that he couldn’t see. It was so scary, it wouldn’t be too bad if it were my own head, but doing it to someone else is another story… Now I had to do it again 0.o… It was just as bad this time around…</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> So we had a super bomb time in Wilson Canyon. We hiked up the first bend and found this super pretty little mini canyon. In the bottom we found this dry riverbed so we started to follow that and we found this unstable rock thing and Elder Gurr was like, we should climb that. There were all sorts of weeds/plants on the way up that were all spiky and the rock face itself was super precarious. We got ⅔ of the way up and we decided to go back down and that was an adventure in of itself, sliding down on our butts. Then we continued down the dry riverbed where we got to Walker River and that was cool, all frozen over and what not. After that, we went back to the car to change and we did that and headed over to the Heller’s house for dinner. That was real good, surprisingly we had the most authentic tacos that I have had in Yerington. We went and saw JC Ward after that and he is doing really well considering that the first time we met him he didn’t have sufficient food for the week. He might be getting some checks soon that will give him a monthly income and that is so good to hear. Now we just need to get him to church! Now the reason this entry is titled Senators and Seals is because in the course of JC Ward telling us some stories, we found out that he had been a Seal and of course, Dean Heller is the senior senator for Nevada. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">We are about to start exchanges with Elder Bentti and Elder Soto. I am going with Elder Bentti back down to Yerington. It’s going to be a bomb time. We had District Meetings over in Fallon and that was pretty sweet. We talked about the Book of Mormon and how it is our job to help people gain that testimony of it. It was the best one that I have had in a long while in my opinion. Yep, this’ll be a good exchange!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Yeah… So that exchange lasted for about 10 minutes and then we had to turn around and head back to Fernley. Something went down with one of the elders in the District so Elder Bentti had to take him to the mission office. We had to drive the other two Elders in Fernley to an appointment there and then we rushed back. It has been kind of crazy but we are planning on meeting in Silver Springs tonight to re-start exchanges. Hopefully everything turns out for the best!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Finally Exchanges- W</span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">e were able to start exchanges and planning. It was a long planning session. We have a really good day ahead of us. We have the Funks and Bruce and Jim Button for lessons tomorrow. As for what we did today, we got back to our area and headed down to Mason for a lesson with the Hunters. They let us in and we were getting ready to read 3 Nephi 11 with them when Brother Hunter got a call from work that they needed him right then. We had to leave then, of course. I have been studying Preach My Gospel chapter 11 a lot recently and so I decided to use what I had learned and right there boldly ask them to come to church. I explained that it would be a special Christmas service in that it is only an hour long. They seemed to really consider coming and that was so exciting to see! We then went up and tried Jim Button but it was already </span><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2056263778" style="background-color: transparent; border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; position: relative; top: -2px; white-space: pre-wrap; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">5:30</span></span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;"> and he goes to bed around 6. We are going to try again, of course, and he is always home. We then went to dinner with the Merrill family and that was good, they are a super nice/chill family. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Crrraaazzy Day- </span><span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; white-space: pre-wrap;">So today has been crazy long. Honestly, it has been pretty fun with all the stuff we have had to do. First off, the crazy morning started with Elder Bentti realizing three things: that he had high blood sugar, that his pump had leaked, and that he had no more insulin and that it was all in Fernley. We both showered and got ready and then we drove back up to Fernley to get his Diabetes stuff. When we walked in the look on Elder Soto and Elder Gurr’s was priceless. We grabbed the stuff and then just walked out. Then we got about 15 minutes down the road and realized again that we left the backup stuff there so we turned around and drove back again. We finally got back at 10:30ish and we did our personal and companionship studies. That was all good and then we had some lunch over at Subway™ “Eat Fresh” and that was good except for the fact that everyone was super weirded out by us, but that’s ok. High Schoolers are always weirded out by us because we are “Jesus People” and the workers just seemed angry. We then went over to see Bruce Sanders. We had talked with Cindy Cliften yesterday about meeting with Bruce over at the church but she called and said she had never heard back from Barbara, Bruce’s caretaker/daughter. We went over to Bruce’s house to walk him over to Cindy’s house, but he was all angry with us because he deemed our sweaters useless in the cold. He invited us inside his house for the lesson and that was actually pretty neat, His Son-in-law is a less active so it was good just to be in their home. We read 1 Nephi 10 with him and he liked it a lot. It was an odd day for him because with his Alzheimer's he usually has good and bad days, but today seemed like both. He started out telling stories and what not but when we started reading he seemed really coherent and everything. We committed him to read chapter 11 before church and he seemed pretty gung ho about that. From Bruce’s house we went to Jim Button who we had originally planned on seeing yesterday. He was there and we talked about Jesus the Christ, the book he is going to read next, now that he has read the Standard Works. We were able to talk a bit about church attendance and prayer and how that has blessed his life and how it can continue to do so. It is so amazing to see the change that people make and how they have grown. Jim really has grown so so much since I first met him. After Jim, we got in the car and I asked Elder Bentti what was up because during the lesson he was either angry or upset or sleepy. He said yes, he was super sleepy so we went home and I did language study while he napped. Honestly, it was one of the most fun/productive language studies I have had in awhile. I started to read the Book of Mormon out loud in Spanish and then I realized that probably wasn’t the best idea for the sore throat that I have been developing all week. I read from the Liahona and got some good notes out of that. Then, thinking back to the conversation that Elder Bentti and I had about about different good uses there were for the AlphaSmart he said that sometimes he would just write a talk for his personal study. I decided that was a great idea for my language study. I quickly looked up how to do the different accent marks and away I went, writing a Spanish talk about the Peace of Christ. After language study, we went out to Smith Valley and saw the Smiths. They are doing really good! Both have been reading the Book of Mormon! It was so cool to see what progress they have made in the last month! We then went to the most intense appointment ever. We got to the Funks and had fried tacos which were delicious, of course. They committed very easily and quickly to come to church, wherever they are at, read and pray daily. Sister Funk has still been thinking about baptism a lot and it turns out that they are going down to Las Vegas on the 31st of this year and she wants to get baptized then.. It will be a fun day figuring that out tomorrow. It really has been a good day and I am super tired but we are going to have a super awesome day tomorrow!</span></div>

We called President and he said that they could get baptized down in Las Vegas and that is pretty exciting. We also had to text Brother Funk about setting up another lesson for today or tomorrow. We are going over there at 8 tomorrow to teach them a ton. We planned out the rest of the doctrine we need to teach them into three lessons during weekly planning and that was good. It just so happens that what we are going to teach them tomorrow is the biggest chunk that doesn’t go together as well as the other two lessons do, but it’ll be all right. I think they understand that we have a lot to teach in a little bit of time. We did some Weekly Planning in the morning and that was ok. It is definitely necessary of course. </span></div>

We went over to the Greenhouse and sorted a bunch of stuff. After the Greenhouse, we went over to see Doyle and he is still doing pretty good! We read 3 Nephi 13 and 14 to him and he loves that a lot. It is so great to see how the Book of Mormon can bless people's lives! We went after that to the Nish family’s house to share a thought. I forget if I have talked about them before. He was the oldest active crop duster in the U.S.A. a couple of years ago and now he has heart surgery and all that jazz. We shared Alma 32:41-43 and talked about how it can bless their lives and make them rooted in Christ. They really want the sacrament taken to them and that is a super good sign! Brother Nish gave the closing prayer and that was really cool. He got really choked up as he prayed for our well being and safe and that was super touching. The Spirit was so strong in there and he even got up to say goodbye which he has never done in the past. After leaving there we went to the Bake’s house for a lovely dinner of spaghetti. Eating spaghetti has been kind of weird with Elder Abbot and with Elder Gurr. They both don’t like spaghetti, Elder Gurr likes it more but Elder Abbott would get straight depressed when we had it. It is just weird to me because I love it and I want to be happy when my companion is and sad when he is too. After dinner we came back and did more Weekly Planning and Language Study. It has been a good day!</span></div>

We had lunch with the Chell family and they took us out to this cheap, super good Mexican restaurant in town. It was really cool to get to know them because they are the only member couple in town that is even close to our age. We had so much food that they sent us home with enough leftovers to have the leftovers for a decently sized dinner! We ate the rest tonight. We did get to have good lesson with the Funks though. We had planned to teach all the commandments to get them super ready for baptism, but they had different questions about Baptism for the Dead and the Holy Ghost so we spent a lot of time talking about that. We talked a lot about following the Prophet and that actually got pretty emotional. I brought up the example of how President Monson announced the Missionary age change and how that had blessed my life. Elder Gurr brought up how he decided to go out at age 19. Josieray asked me how I decided to come out and I told them about my conversion story and that was so close to having me in tears. We followed up on the Word of Wisdom and Sister Funk had had a cup of coffee that morning and that freaked me out a ton. I was freaked out because usually you have to have abstained from the things in the Word of Wisdom for two weeks before baptism. We texted President and told him and luckily he said to go forward with is. So it was a great lesson and we are going back to finish the Commandments on Monday and I am super pumped for that! Also, Sister Funk gave us fancy chocolates and I am thoroughly enjoying those! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">So yesterday was pretty crazy. We had a lesson with Eric Soto who is our only Spanish investigator. I was super pumped to teach him because Elder Gurr hasn’t taught in Spanish in the field yet. He was pretty nervous, but it turned out that he wasn’t there and that was pretty disappointing. After that, we went down south of town. Why we did that is because ever since I was with Elder Abbott our goal was to visit every person on the ward list and to have a note by each name. It was a goal that led us to the Funk family so I have high hopes that we will continue to see success with that. We had covered about every part of our area with that method but for some reason we had never visited the people who live south of town. We decided to do that yesterday. We only had success with one family and when I say success I mean we were able to put down the note that they had moved. But I still think it was time well spent because we were doing what we felt prompted to do and if we only were following a prompting and showing the Lord we will follow those when we receive them I think it was time well spent. After that, we went up to dinner at the Hunt’s house. Dinner itself was good, we got to do Christmas Crackers which included a fancy crown that we wore while eating dinner. Afterwards we were able to play some games with them and that was good. The Hunts were one of those families that we saw at church, but didn’t really talk too much but we got to talk with them and get to know them better and that was good. They read the Christmas story as one of their traditions and that was really fun to participate in. After that, we were heading back to the apartment to write in our journals and then go to sleep when we got a call from Elder Bentti saying that he needed his insulin now and that his last bottle was with us from when he grabbed it from Fernley to use while he was here. We ran that up to them and then came back and got gas and by then it was past ten and we just came back and fell asleep. We woke up today and opened Christmas presents and that was fun. I think year by year I appreciate the thought behind the gift more and more and that has really made Christmas more focused on Christ for me. We went to church and that was really special. There was a really special spirit there, like there just was no sort of bad feeling in the church, it was so cool. We went to the Darringtons to Facetime home. I really hadn’t been nervous at all to Facetime, that is, until we were at their house. I couldn’t eat or anything and now I’m not sure why I even was nervous. After some technical difficulties they got me set up and away went my nerves. It almost felt normal to see my family and that was a blessing. It was really cool to be able to talk to them, of course, to see how they have all grown. It helped me see more of how I have grown too, just in how I felt and my reactions to what was going on. Just like I hoped I am changing the areas that need changing and keeping the good parts. Of course, I still have a lot of rough edges that need smoothing, but I think they are coming along. Afterwards we just hung out with the Darringtons and that was cool. One of their sons from Idaho had gotten a drone and it was really cool. After that we had dinner with the Johnson family and that was really good. They gave us a stocking and that was awesome. They were really awesome about following up with people that we have talked about in the past. After that, we came up to Fernley. We had a Devotional where we watched the nativity Bible Videos and then shared our testimonies. Now we are spending the night and we get to email here and shop and go to Fallon for a Zone Activity! Next week is going to be awesome!</span><br />

We woke up up in Fernley and had a close to regular p-day. We went and emailed after studies and that was a struggle. The emailing itself was fine but the figuring out how to get journal entries off of here was hard. I didn’t even have time to send home pictures because the computers were acting up and I was pretty sad about that. We returned to Yerington after that and had a little dinner in our apartment. Afterwards we went out to Smith Valley to have the last pre-baptism lesson with the Funks. The lesson turned out well! vWe taught Chastity and Tithing and the law of the land and reviewed the baptismal interview questions. They accepted to live everything. It was kind of funny, during chastity Josieray was kind of freaked out and during tithing Sister Funk seemed a bit freaked out. It turned out just fine, we answered their questions and after that they were fine with it all. Ever since they started reading the Book of Mormon daily they have had no problems accepting any commitment we gave them, they even stopped drinking coffee last week so they were excited to receive the Pero we bought for them. They are so ready and they were really prepared to answer the baptismal interview questions! Afterwards we got talking and Brother and Sister Funk thanked us for coming into their lives when we did and if I hadn’t shed all my tears face timing yesterday I would have shed them there. The Spirit was just so strong and I felt their love and appreciation for what we had done. Sister Funk said that the day we showed up they were going through some rough times as a family and that the day we showed up was THE very day that we were needed and when she was ready to accept. It was great to feel and know that I was able to be an instrument in the Lord’s hand and be in the right place and the right time to bless their lives and bring them closer to their Father in Heaven. It has been a great day!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today has been a good day. We had District Meeting and that was great, we talked about working with our companions in unity and how that can help us. It was pretty good because it touched on some spots I had questions about. When we got home, we had planned to go to the Greenhouse for a bit but they were closed so we just came home and changed and then headed over to Jim Button’s house. We had planned to share some Bible vids with him but I felt prompted to tell him about the Teachings of the Prophets books. He was pretty excited to hear about them. We came back after the lesson and gave him all our extras, six of the books in all and he was so excited to read those! It was another one of those moments in which I felt like I was doing my job! We left and headed to dinner with the Landas. When we got out of the car I noticed that a part of my key chain was missing. After freaking out inside for a bit, I said a little prayer and had an immense feeling of peace during dinner. After dinner, we pulled back up to the house and the first thing I see is my key chain, unharmed on the road. That was a great little blessing for me. We headed back and made some calls to our investigators, just to let them know that they are loved and then we had our language study. It was good, as usual and I can really tell that Elder Gurr’s Spanish is improving, even if he can’t see it yet. We then had daily planning and Elder Gurr did great. He knew what to do and followed the planning guidelines really well. I can see more and more as I stretch him he will come closer and closer to his great potential. It has been a great day and I am excited to see what is in store tomorrow!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It turns out that last night there were a bunch of magnitude 5 earthquakes going on and that was pretty crazy. Pretty crazy that we slept through them. We headed over to teach Bruce Sanders and that was good. It was one of his good days where he was more there. We read 1 Nephi 11 with him and he was pretty confused by what it was talking about. We were able to review the material with him and then he understood it a lot better. We walked over to Doyle Snyder’s house after that and that was pretty good. He let us in and we were able to read with him again. He seems to really enjoy it when we read with him. He is pretty worried about walking to church in the cold but he doesn’t want a ride. I think what we will do different this week is if the thermometer says it is below freezing then we will set up a ride for him. We then waked around a bit more and saw Roger Banta. He is still doing good and it looks like there will be some service opportunities with him in the future. After that, we headed to the church for the Funk’s baptismal interview. It was so exciting to see them take this last step towards the first step. We are so excited for them! </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today has been good. We had good studies in the morning. I really want to get better at studies. I really like that I have been able to get more and more out of the chapters that I read! I just don’t like that I am only able to get through like one chapter of the Book of Mormon, one page of Preach My Gospel, and that’s it. Again, I really liked how much I got out of it. I like the quality, but I want a higher quantity too. </span></div>

We decided to walk around and try to visit people so we did that for about an hour and that was pretty good. No one was out and that was lum. We did have the chance to talk a lot with each other and that is always good. I really like bonding with my companion. We decided that we had better call Susan after that and that took about an hour. It is good to talk to her and just listen because no one listens to her and it helps her feel loved. She expressed her thanks for us and that was really nice. We went over to Mason Valley Residency to see some of the old members. We were able to see Norma Schultz, a really nice older lady who we got to know. She was so happy that we had stopped by! </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today has been pretty good as well but we had no time to be out. We had coordination and that was pretty good. Brother Rowley was pretty excited that the Funks are getting baptized today, as are we. He pointed out that our last two weeks progress records basically had the same names on it. That isn’t all bad to me because the people we have seen in the last two weeks needed to be visited, but he was right in a way. We don’t have enough flow in our area, we need to be more focused on finding, and that was a good gentle reminder that I need to get back in those good habits of always focusing on finding. After that, we walked around and tried to talk to people, but being a holiday, no one was in Yerington. After that, we got to go to this Basque place with the Cliftens a little way outside of town. It was so good and I couldn’t even finish my main course there was so much food. That was good and then we came back to Weekly Plan. We had to be inside today early to plan and stay out of trouble or something. The planning itself was fine, it was a lot faster than usual which was a nice surprise. We took a long time on our companionship inventory. I love companionship inventory because I always feel so close to my companion afterwards. The spirit is always there when we are willing to communicate how we really feel. Good day as usual!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today was good as well. We had no meetings in the morning so for the first time in a long while we got to actually have personal study on a Sunday. That was pretty sweet. I finished Preach My Gospel again and that was pretty awesome. I am excited to read it again and to go ham with taking notes and getting a ton out of it. We had really good services. We had awesome speakers and for me personally the sacrament was extra special. I just tried to focus on the Savior’s Sacrifice and how I can improve now. It was a pretty great experience for me. Like I said the speakers were great, it was the Allreds and they talked about how to listen to the spirit and how to be receptive to it. Sister Allred used the example of the Wise Men and how they had to be so receptive to do what they did. Brother Allred likened it to Ham Radio and the signals the radios receive. It was really great to hear two very different but great and simple perspectives on how to listen to the spirit. Elder Gurr’s Spanish scriptures are the new ones that they just printed this summer and of course mine are older. There are a lot of words that got changed to better show the meaning of a section so sometimes we have a lot of differing words. There was a ton tonight and it was kind of funny to us because we kept thinking the other was reading wrong. Another Great day!</span></span><div class="yj6qo">

Proselyting wise, it was pretty short. We had P-Day of course, and that was pretty good. I found a cool sweater at a thrift store and it actually is quite classy. I think it is a bit to un-conservative for the mission because it is not just one color. Idk. Anyways, we emailed and that was pretty good. I thought that having this would make it so i had a lot more time but I really have less than what I did have. That is ok because the quality increases. I just need to figure out something to do while the Neo is typing the whole thing up. After P-Day, we went down to Mason to confirm with the Hunters for our lesson <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2056263787" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">tomorrow</span></span>. After that we booked it over to the Rowley’s for dinner and that was pretty good. We had spaghetti and pumpkin pie, both things that I think are pretty good but Elder Gurr can’t handle. I felt bad for him because he struggled a bit. Anyways, after that we went out and tried to visit some families east of town. Elder Gurr’s stomach was killing him. We weren’t able to see anyone except Brother Carlgren, who is not even interested in talking to us. We were able to just be friendly and I think he appreciated that. After that we came back and Spanished and that was good too. We both learned a bunch of new words from reading the Book of Mormon. Then we planned. Short, slow, but rewarding day.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today we had no lessons again and that was pretty sad. We did had something set up with Jim Button and the Hunters but Jim wasn’t back from Silver Springs yet and the Hunters were too tired. They did say that they would give us a call to set up for <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2056263788" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Sunday</span></span>, because weekends are better for them. I am pretty hopeful that they will actually call us! District Meeting was awesome too. It was about being the fourth missionary, which basically means the missionary that gives his all to the work and puts the Lord’s will first. I knew that and it was an awesome reminder from my leaders and from the spirit. Something that came to mind was how important it is to have charity for my companion. I need to be making sure his needs are met before my own and it was great to put that into priority in my head. Other than that, we had dinner with the Hibbards at Round Table and that was good, it’s hard to not love a pizza buffet as a 19 year old. We also had some time where we fixed up our records and that was good to prepare the records as of the Lord were to look at them Himself. It has been a very slow day but I feel like I have grown closer to my companion. Elder Gurr has had a terrible headache for the past couple of days and today I focused more on not only being concerned for him but showing it and showing him that I care, In that sense this day has been really good!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Today has been pretty weird. We did our morning stuff like studies and what not. Then we had to go over and get our oil changes but we did get to talk to a couple of Spanish guys and a Less-Active member. That was pretty cool. It was nice to speak Spanish with a native, especially because they were super nice. After that we came back and had lunch. Btw Elder Gurr’s symptoms have persisted and now he has a terrible migraine. He realized when he woke up and his head hurt when he was exposed to light. He’s not a vampire, just a man with a migraine. Anyways, he toughed it out for our lesson with Bruce, which was great by the way. It really was to get him back on track, not only reading with him, but working with him towards the goal of baptism. It was a really good lesson really, we just talked about why he has been coming to church so faithfully for a year. I don’t know if he was all the way there for the whole thing but in the end I think he saw how important baptism really is. He even said himself that it was the gateway, and that was pretty cool. After that, it seemed like Elder Gurr was getting worse so I had him call the Mission Nurse and she said that he should rest up. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This week is slow…. We were inside for studies of course, and then at around ten we got a text from the Zone Leaders saying that President wants us inside until further notice. You see, not only had it rained yesterday, it froze last night and also snowed another 3 inches or so. Yeah. So we weekly planned and ate lunch and we were actually able to finish that up. At around 3 we were still inside doing our to-do list when we got the text that we can leave. After about a half hour of intense ice scraping to our car to make sure it is safe, we headed over to Jim Button’s house and he wasn’t there today. We then went over to Doyle’s, who also wasn’t there. We tried some of the older ladies that lived around there to see if they needed some shoveling done or something. One of them got all concerned because she was worried that she thought she was less active, which she is. She informed us that she was active and seemed a bit freaked out that we stopped by. By that time about an hour had passed and we were beginning to feel pretty unsafe when we got another text saying we should probably head in, and for sure we needed to be in by 6. We had dinner at 6 so we texted dinner to see what they wanted to do. They said to come right then so we did. We had a good stew with the Rempps and that was fun. They told a bunch of stories from their missions together and gave us nutella. That was pretty awesome. After that, we came back and did as much as we still could, do our studies and plan <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2056263789" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">tomorrow</span></span> like it will be fine. After that we made some planners. Now we are keeping fingers crossed about <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2056263790" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">tomorrow</span></span> and going to bed!

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sooo nothing happened today. We didn’t leave the apartment. Elder Gurr has been really sick and so we were inside all day. I did my best to be productive, studying for a couple of hours and cleaning the apartment. We had to cancel dinner so they brought us soup. Sooo yeah, we called some people but other than that, we haven’t really done much. I did get to finish up the Counseling with our Council book and start the Teachings of the Presidents: Gordon B Hinckley and that was pretty awesome. Sooo yeah, I’m 5 hoping Elder Gurr is feeling better <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2056263791" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">tomorrow</span></span>.</span></div>

That was awesome after a day of not having it. He decided to give it a go in the morning so we went out and tried to visit Eric Sweeney. By then it was lunch time and he was pooped. He got it together for coordination and after that had to come back and rest. He felt good enough to go to dinner with the Christensens and that was good, except the food hurt his stomach. So we came back and I did my language study and then I cleaned for a bit. I did get to read more of the President Hinckley book and that was really good. I like reading from that because I remember when President Hinckley said some of the things in the book and that is really cool to me. Of course, I may still be stuck inside but we continue to see miracles! Today I decided one productive activity I could do would be to send texts to the numbers in our phone that we didn’t know. From that we got two for sure wrong numbers, one lady who had moved but is willing to meet with the missionaries, and one who said he would come to church <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2056263792" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">tomorrow</span></span>! ¡Qué Milagro! Also he was Spanish so that’s why I said what a miracle in Spanish. So not much was done proselyting wise, but I am hopeful for the future, especially because Elder Gurr said his goal for <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2056263793" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">tomorrow</span></span> is to go the whole day! I am pretty excited for that!</span></div>

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sooo Elder Gurr is getting better.. Slowly but surely. He made it through church and dinner but other than that we were at home so he could rest. I think it is amazing that although we aren’t outside all the time because Elder Gurr needs to rest, we still see miracles daily. Today in Ward Council we announced the Book of Mormon initiative and that was well received. We started today with the Rowleys and they were really excited to start! I’m excited that that went so well and I am excited to see the progress of the work of the whole mission as members take this step!<br />Also, it flooded in the valley.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Training Week 1-</span></h2>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">This week has been intense, I would say, this week will definitely stand out when I think about my mission in the future. It has been great, I have felt that the joy I have felt has been augmented and this is definitely the most tiring week that I have had. It started off well, with Elder Abbott packing on Monday and going out to see the Funks. We had a lesson on the Word of Wisdom and that was awesome! They had some concerns about coffee, but after some more discussion Renee said, "Well, it's one thing we can do to get more blessings and to get closer to our Heavenly Father." I was so happy when she said that, that is what living the commandments do! They are understanding and progressing very well! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> We stopped by McDonalds on Tuesday to try to find one of our investigators, Bruce. We found him there with some of his friends and to our happy surprise, he was drinking hot chocolate instead of coffee! It was so great to see that, because we have been focusing on helping him give up coffee and now he has done it on his own! He is also reading the Book of Mormon on his own! He leaned over to me during church to tell me he had read the chapters that we left him and that he was going to read some more! WE are so excited for Bruce! </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> Getting Elder Gurr was something exciting. I wasn't really nervous until we got assigned as companions and then it hit me that I really was training. It was good to have the ride home to get to know him better! Wednesday was great, we had a lesson with Bruce Sanders and then with Doyle Snyder and both were really good lessons! Elder Gurr really showed his love for both of them, even though he had just met them! After those lessons we went around trying to see people and set up appointments and no one was answering. That was kind of saddening, but it was alright. Later that day we had a lesson with the Bantas and that was super great. It showed that Elder Gurr really is in tune with the Spirit. He chose D&C 121:7-8 to share and that really hit home with them. The S</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">pirit was so strong. Elder Gurr really has strengthened my testimony in that if we do all we can in the situation we are in, the Lord will provide and help us. He didn't know a lot of these people, but he tried his hardest to love and serve them and follow the Spirit and he has already touched many lives because of that!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Understanding Isaiah More!</span></h2>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">Great a week again! I have really felt that in the Book of Mormon, the stories and verses have really spoken to me and showed me how I can apply them in my life. I finished up the first book of Nephi and I realized that this time around the Isaiah chapters even made more sense! That was really exciting! We had a good success with visiting the less actives here this week! We met a lot more members that haven't been to church in a long time and it was great to visit them and to let them know that they are loved. We got to visit Susan again this week, this time we were able to teach her as well as do some service for her. The day before, we had dinner with the Hibbard family and we felt impressed to ask Brother Hibbard to come with us and that turned out to be a real blessing! He brought his truck and that was very much needed to move the fireplace Susan wanted us to move. It was hand crafted and everything, it was so heavy! After we moved that, Susan started talking to us again and she told us more about how she felt like she had no worth, we were able to testify that God really does love her and cares for her. We also had an interesting lesson with Keith Stauffer, who is a less active who has no desire to come back to church at the moment. We were able to give him a Book of Mormon and to testify of the power it has to help us come closer to our Savior. He seemed uninterested, but we left feeling like he had felt the Spirit, and that we had done what the Lord wanted of us. The work continues in Yerington! </span></div>

The week itself was wonderful! We had a lot of people at church this week! One of them was Jim Button. He is a less active who has been scared to come to church because he thought he didn't know enough. Now he has read the standard works on his own and he said during our lesson on Tuesday that he would for sure be at church <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_351688037" style="border-bottom: 1px dashed rgb(204, 204, 204); position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">on Sunday</span></span> and he came! He stayed all three hours and loved it all! He even said that he would be there in the following weeks as well! He has not been to church in the past 55 years and it is so exciting to watch him and help him progress in the Gospel! Also on Tuesday we had a wonderful lesson with a missionary who returned two weeks ago, Mackenzie Bohner and her friend. Her friend wanted to understand what Mackenzie had been doing on her mission, so we shared with her the Restoration and she loved it! We didn't have time to ask her before she said she would definitely read the Book of Mormon and pray about it! She also said that she would get baptized when she knew this is true! It was such a great lesson! </div>
<div dir="ltr">
We had another awesome lesson with the Bryant family! We taught the Plan of Salvation and they were really accepting of it! They also read the Book of Mormon! We are so excited for them! The Funks came to church this week! It was so great to see them! They are excited to begin to be taught again and move closer to baptism! <div class="yj6qo">

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"> We have had a super awesome week! This Monday we were able to go up to Fallon for our Zone activity where we just played sports, like you do when you are in an area in a city. It was fun to see everyone! On Tuesday, we went over to Jim Button's house. He is a less active member who has been reading through the standard works (Scriptures) and he is loving it. We read with him and invited him to pray before he reads and he was super excited to start! That was great to see because before he wouldn't have really thought to do so and probably wouldn't have tried it! It has been great to see them progress! </span><br />

I realized I needed to do that when I was on exchanges with Elder Bentti. We were teaching some of their new investigators who are Primary aged girls. I realized that I could do a lot better in teaching in a simple way that is powerful and can impact everyone. It has been fun/ humbling to go through the points and realize that there is a lot of points that I don't teach. I was able to apply what I learned in our lesson with the Funks on Friday. We were going to teach the Gospel of Jesus Christ and luckily, I had studied the points that morning, because I was able to learn and write down what I learned I was able to apply what I learned and teach the doctrine more simply and powerfully! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"> We had an interesting day on Saturday. We had two set lessons, both of which we had. The first was with Eric Soto, an investigator who hasn't been progressing for the 2 months we have been teaching him. We decided that it was time to talk about his goals for our visits, we talked about baptism and the importance of it. He said he wasn't interested in coming to church and he said no. I decided it would be good to see if he had any desire at all, just to learn more. I asked him if he wanted to know if what we taught was true. He said no. That was pretty sad to hear, but that lesson went well because I could tell Elder Abbott and I were doing our best to follow the Spirit and ask inspired questions. We then had a lesson with Jessica Bradley, a less active whose family are recent converts. Elders in the past had not been able to get them to progress and come to church and neither could we for a long time. She came last week and said this week that she was planning on coming this week as well which was kind of a shock. We are super hopeful that they will continue to progress! Sunday was amazing! The Funks came to church! They all loved it! I</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">t has been great to see them progress this far and we are so excited to help them progress towards the waters of baptism!</span><br />

Training! (From Monday, November 28, 2016)<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"> We have had a great week! On Tuesday, we were able to have another lesson with Jim Button and that was great! He talked about how he prayed before he started to read and how he has seen some blessings because of that! He said that he felt strongly impressed to give to some charities! The part that I thought was really cool was that he said that he was going to see his ex wife on Thanksgiving and he felt strongly impressed that when he sees her that he should forgive her! It was so amazing to see the atonement working in his life, changing him for the better! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">We had a great day on Wednesday, Elder Steinberg and I on exchanges! We were able to teach Bruce Sanders and that was good. Bruce is showing more and more in lesson that he is really understanding the scriptures! We decided that we should go out to Smith Valley because we hadn't see the people out there in a long time and Brother Rowley, our ward mission leader had suggested that we go out and see the Schofield family. We did and they let us in, which they have never done before. We had a good lesson with Brother Schofield, really just to understand him and where he is coming from. I felt prompted just to ask him "Have you been a member for a longtime?" I was not sure what asking such a simple question could do, but I did it anyways. From that he really opened up to us about how God has been a part of his life and how and why he feels uncomfortable in church. That was amazing to see that one question can really make a great difference! We had a great Thanksgiving as well! We had dinner with the Hellers and that was great. They thought our typewriters were pretty neat/weird. After that, we went to the Funks and spent a good evening with them. They are such awesome people! We ended up just naturally talking about some questions that Sister Funk had and that was great! We have seen a lot of miracles, like the Funks coming to church again and their progression in the Gospel, and members that have been willing and ready to help us in the work, even at a moments notice! This weeks studies have been good as well, I finished the Book of Mormon and that is always a wonderful experience that strengthens my testimony. I had a bit of a struggle in choosing what should be the focus in this study of it. I decided to look for the commandments that Christ gives us through His prophets or Himself and what are the blessings from those. I'm not sure exactly why I am studying it that way, but I think it will be really helpful down the road and I have learned so much already! I am excited to train, the past couple of days my thoughts and studies have been focused more on how can I not only be exactly obedient, but how can I be a better example of obedience! It is going to be a great new transfer!</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"> We have had a great week! We have been focusing a lot on making our spiritual thoughts after dinner more effective. This week we taught the Gospel of Jesus Christ and we saw good results from it! On Monday, we did one and the members were reminded of two people they hadn't seen in a while, it was great to see! On Tuesday, </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">we had a great lesson with Jim Button. A couple of weeks back Brother Rowley, our Ward Mission Leader had the impression that we should bring Brother Rogers with us. We haven't had the opportunity to bring him, but he was available Tuesday night</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">. It was great to see that Brother Rowley's impression brought about a great lesson! Brother Rogers and Jim Button got along great! On Wednesday</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">, after Zone Conference we went out to Smith Valley and we were able to bring a member to stop in at the Funks, We invited them to a dinner with our ward missionaries! The most exciting part of the week was definitely Sunday</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">. We had planned a couple weeks back to go with the Rempp family out to Smith Valley to visit everyone, but then they had cancelled. Then, before Sacrament meeting Sister Rempp came up to us and asks us if we were ready to go to Smith with them. We hurried and asked the Hellers if they could come to dinner as well and they said yes! We were able to take the Rempps to some new part member and less active families that we had found and introduce them. The Rempps got along with all the families and it was great to see Ward outreach! We finished yesterday with dinner and a lesson with the Hellers, Rempps and Funks. It was a super good lesson! We taught the Gospel of Jesus Christ using parts of 1 Nephi 3. They were very open and honest and receptive! We committed them to baptismal dates! We are super excited to work with them towards the 10th of December</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">!</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"> <i>In response to a question from Dad, Elder Jarnagin said this about his growth- </i></span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12.8px;">We had a great zone conference this week and it made me realize that I have so much to do and so far to go. It also helped me make sure and do an inventory of myself to make sure not even a fraction of my efforts out here were lost and went to anything but serving the Lord. I think that has helped me a lot. I think that I have grown in character these two transfers and for that I am grateful. The Lord keeps throwing trials my way, always new, always something I can handle, always something to make me grow. No one said the mission was easy and I didn't sign up for some walk in the park.</span></span></span><br />

Halloween was pretty good, though we had some people try to knock on our door and that was pretty weird. Tuesday was a great day, we met with a less active family that we hadn't met with before. It was good to be able to talk with them and discern what they needed! Wednesday we had dinner with a returning less active family. It was so cool because they had invited one of their friends to eat with us! The friend left halfway through, but we asked about it during our lesson on Saturday and they said that they like to invite non member friends to dinner with the missionaries. They said 8 or 9 of their friends had been baptized because of that! On Thursday, we went out to Smith Valley to see the Funks again! They are doing great and are ready to start meeting with us again! We also met the Smith family who is a part member family. They are really receptive and have accepted everything we have told them! It has been a good week!</span><br />

Tuesday we had a lesson with Nacho and that was good. It is kind of sad though because he seems to be losing interest in the message. It is always hard when someone feels that way, that they are fine the way they are and don't want to change anymore. We had exchanges on Wednesday. It was kind of hard being there, but I did my best to be positive and love everyone around me and we saw some success! We had a really awesome lesson with a returning less active on Thursday, Sister Baker. She has been through a lot of rough times, but is fighting to return to full activity. We brought some members with us, who we weren't sure would be the best fit. Luckily, they were great, the couple we brought just showed so much love for Sister Baker which allowed them to be really bold in asking what problems she had and how they can help! It was a testimony builder to me that when we have real, Christlike love for people, we can be bold with them and they will know that it comes out of love! Other than that we saw a car crash happen right in front of us and that was pretty spooky. </span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">It has been a great week and we will keep working to make it even better!</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><b>Less Actives! (Oct 17, 2016)</b></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;">This week has been good, we have seen a lot of success with our less actives! They have been progressing and coming to church! Some specifics were a lesson with a less active named brother Co. He has been less active for a while but this is his third week coming to church! We taught him a lesson on the importance of prayer out of the Book of Mormon. We brought his home teacher and that was super awesome, his home teacher was able to apply the message to him really well! Something I realized this week is how important it is to use our talents and to constantly hone them. This week we tried to find more but it seemed no one was out and when they were they seemed busy or would quickly walk away. It seems like since finding is different here I am a little out of touch. This week we had the chance to set up service with a non profit organization. It was cool to see how much good we can do even just by offering help. It seems like we are always offering to help or serve and no one says yes. It is really rewarding when they accept and we are able to help them improve their lives! PS this is a pic of Elder Stienberg, he is in my district</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Joy in the Work! (Oct 24, 2016)</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;">This week has been interesting. I don't think too much out of the ordinary happened but in every situation I was more happy! I think that I am finding more and more joy in every aspect of the work! We had a surprise lesson with the Sanford family last Monday. We stopped by just to set up an appointment and they let us inside! We had a great time talking about their reading and how that is helping and changing them! All this week we were super excited to be a part of thier progression. Then Brother Sanford called us this morning saying he doesn't want us coming over for a while. We aren't too concerned because this has happened before where he decides to investigate on his own, but it is sad that he doesn't want our help. We had a tough day where it seemed like everything fell through, we ended up walking to try to talk with people and trying to set up appointments. It was tough but because we did that we were able to meet Stan. Stan is the son of a less active member in our ward, he has talked to missionaries before and is decently interested in the gospel. He respects the church for the good that we do. We decided to set an expectation of us showing up every other day because most of our investigators have the expectation the we come by every week. We showed up that Tuesday and then that Thursday and had a good lesson about the restoration and the Book of Mormon! I think my favorite part of this week was our church meetings. Not only was it great to participate in the sacrament but 3 less active members came that had never come before! It was so great to see them there! Some things we have been studying is how to work with members. We have really reached the conclusion that if we want to have success, that will come through the members. We have been trying to show them that we are here for them and I think that is beginning to pay off! </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Chili! (October 31, 2016)</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; text-align: start;">This week has been pretty good, we haven't taught as many lessons as we would have liked but we are doing all we can to invite others to come unto Christ! On Monday Brother Sanford, one of our investigators called us and said he needs time to think and make sure he was doing this for him. That was kind of sad because we probably won't be able to help him progress now but we know he will see in the near future the importance of the restored Gospel in his life! We were able to meet with Jim Button on Tuesday</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; text-align: start;"> and that was great! He has been reading though the standard works and had just started the book of Job. We decided to read that with him and the lesson turned out very well! I think the coolest part for me was to see how his knowledge of the scriptures has advanced, it is not old, hard to understand words to him now, he understands it much better! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; text-align: start;">On Thursday </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; text-align: start;">we had a chili cook off with the ward and that was awesome! We had been sure to invite people to it in the days leading up to it and out of ten recent convert/less active families, eight showed up! It was great to see them there, especially because we weren't able to invite some of them so that meant the ward did a great job of reaching out as well! It was so great to see! Friday </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; text-align: start;">we were studying inspired questions during Companionship Study and we had a lesson with Brother Jackson later that day when we could apply what we learned! We used questions that were able to open up brother Jackson to help him see the importance of reading the Book of Mormon with his family! On Saturday </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; text-align: start;">we were able to go to Smith Valley and see the Funks again! They are back in town and we hopefully will be teaching them this week! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This week definitely had some highs and lows. We have had a lot of appointments cancel. It happens sometimes, but it is still a bit sad when it happens. We did see some success with a returning less active, Brother Co, this week! We had two visits with him where we read chapters from the book of Ether. For one lesson we brought his home teacher who bore a powerful testimony that it is possible to keep all the commandments. Brother Co ended up coming to church this week! </span><br />

We didn't have a dinner that day, so we called up a less active part member family out in Smith Valley who is always willing to feed us. We spent the evening out there trying to contact people from the ward list we didn't know. We found a lot of people who weren't interested in coming back, but we did find the Funk family. We talked to Sister Funk before dinner and she invited us in, but Brother Funk wasn't there so we asked if we could come back at 7. We returned and talked to the whole family. We found out that Brother Funk was the only member, but the rest of the family was interested! Sister Funk especially said she needed religion in her life again! We are so excited to go back and see them this week!! Other that that the week was pretty normal!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>It's an amazing experience to watch your children grow and mature!

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have a different question for you, and need your input. I’m struggling with how to help youth with technology. Devices are great for so many things. Many of us wonder if they can also be an inhibitor for communication or social skills. We feel many youth are too used to communicating through a screen, and not with their mouths, in a face-to-face environment. I’ve also been studying the impacts of lack of devices on newly-called missionaries. Many have anxiety because they aren’t used to being without their devices. <u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>Elder Jarnagin's response-</i></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #222222; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As for technology, I think nothing will really stop misuse of technology (bad sites, too much, lack of real communication, etc) except diligence. I say that because I have been studying it for a training we are giving in Zone conference tomorrow. Diligence for me is a good balance of good things. We have time to plan and to teach here, both are needed, but we need diligence to use them and our time effectively. All of it starts with desire. If we desire to good we will do it. Honestly, it was different to adjust to life without a device for me too, to take all those connections and rip them all out is hard. I think as I have come to value the influence and the connection of the Spirit, the desires to have connections to a device have stopped for me. I think maybe youth don't fully understand the Spirit or how valuable it and human interaction is. When they understand that, naturally I think their desires will change for the better! </span></span>Tynel Jarnaginhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16870988800212757061noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7939164654672116580.post-74077774452673619272016-09-21T15:35:00.000-04:002016-09-21T15:35:06.001-04:00Miracles! from Sept 19<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"><br /></span>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"> This week has been pretty miraculous! Monday we had a full day, all three hours of proselyting were filled and none of our lessons fell through! We started to teach Nacho English. We met with the Sanford family and they are awesome! They love to read the Book of Mormon as a couple and are really progressing! Going up to Fallon two times this week was an interesting experience! Elder Abbott and I got to have some bonding car rides which was cool! </span><br />

We were able to be there for them and teach a little bit about the afterlife which seemed to help them a lot! We were also able to meet with Leslie, a recent convert three times this week! We covered the first three lessons to see what she knows and she sure knows her stuff! We also met with the Sanford family on Thursday </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">again. Brother Sanford had read the tithing pamphlet we left him and didn't agree with some parts, but during the lesson we were able to use the scriptures and follow the Spirit in order to help him understand the principle! It was a great lesson! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"> Exchanges with Elder Bentti were fun too! Elder Bentti is our district leader. We served around each other in the beginning of my mission. It was great to see him again and see how he has changed! I also learned a lot from him about teaching in uncomfortable situations! We were teaching a man who got off topic a lot with stories, but Elder Bentti was able to follow the Spirit and bring the lesson back. </span><br />

Two that stick out are- we went to visit our investigator with a date and he wasn't there, but his son was! We had a good conversation and he had a ton of questions about us and our religion! We look forward to following up with him! We also were trying to visit an investigator that day who wasn't home. As we went to get into the car, someone flagged us down, introduced himself as Brother Shepard, a less active that wants to meet with us and come back to church! So awesome!</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"></span><br />

We have not had as much time as we wanted to go out and talk to people as we would have liked, because Elder Abbott wasn't feeling to well at the beginning of the week and we spent a ton of time going through weekly planning. I am quickly coming to learn and understand the area better! I see why it is important to have a Spanish Elder down here! There are a lot of Hispanic folks down here. It is interesting how they are much quicker to say not interested than those in Sparks. It is kind of nice because we spend less time teaching not interested people. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"> We have taught Nacho this week. He is so awesome, he is a hard working man that is lonely because all of his family is in Mexico and he spends 6 months here and 6 months there. He has been very kind to us and very receptive to the message and now we are going to teach him the Gospel and English! </span><br />

There are a lot of teaching situations that are different here, people with different backgrounds and lives. We have seen a lot of significant miracles this week the most surprising to me was a street contact we had the other day. We said hi to a lady and she seemed in a rush so we asked her if she knew anyone that needed a message of prayer. She turned around and commented on how important prayer is. She asked us what church we were from and as I said the churches name she said "Mormons?!" She then proceeded to say how she wanted to come and try our church because our focus on the family was important to her and she wanted to stop smoking. She seemed super excited when we left!</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Eight! (Monday, August 29th)</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> This week has been miraculous!! We had 8 investigators show up to church and 1 returning less active came for the first time! We had a great lesson on Monday with one of our newer investigators, Maria, about the plan of salvation. At the end, we committed her to read the Book of Mormon and she said that of course she was going to read it because she had already felt peace while she read it! On Tuesday, we had a great lesson where we got dropped. Getting dropped is always kind of sad, but this man, Hector, said that he was ok in his religion but he would read the Book of Mormon with his wife!

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">I think this zone conference on Friday was awesome! After zone conference we felt super pumped to teach the restoration simply and smoothly and we have seen miracles from that. We have been able to work in unity more and follow the spirit better! Our two investigators with a baptismal date, Maria and Eric, are progressing a lot! We had a lesson with them about baptism and they are understanding why it is important more and more! </span><br />

We also had a temple tour with Daniel our recent convert! We had set up another member to give us a ride, but it fell through so we ended up going with him! It was really fun, we were able to get to know him better and to feel the beautiful spirit of the temple! On Sunday everyone came to church and came for all three hours! Our members did a better job of getting to know them! This week was awesome!<br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">I got Transferred! (Again!) (Monday, Sept 5th)</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> Soooo, I got transferred again. I have had to pack my stuff to move for the last three transfers. So far I have served completely in the Reno/Sparks area and now I am leaving to a little town called <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yerington,_Nevada">Yerington</a>, south of Carson City. It will be a big change for a lot of reasons. For one, it is an english speaking area. Two, I am finishing training a missionary. Three, no Walmart :O I will be with Elder Abbott. I know I'm supposed to go to Yerington and that it will be awesome to learn and grow some more! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> This week has been pretty good! We had a great week teaching and working in unity. We had a lot of lessons where the spirit was really strong! We had one lesson with a returning member family. The daughter had come to church one week before and the mom was scared to come to a church because she wasn't sure what she believed in. We taught the plan of salvation and talked a lot about testimony. I think what made that lesson so great was that we transitioned well and relied a lot more on the scriptures! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"> Other than that, we have had a lot a service. We helped a less active family move their stuff to a storage unit and that was good. We also shoveled three truck loads of stone into our investigators yard for 5 hours. That was pretty intense. The biggest miracle of this week, I think,</span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">This week has been a bit slow, but still great! We had an awesome lesson with some of our investigators, Maria and Eric! We planned to teach the plan of salvation, but it started out just answering their questions from church. They said it made sense what they learned, about the Word of Wisdom, Baptisms for the dead, Seventies, they accepted all of it! I was kind of worried that we wouldn't teach anything new, because it had happened before, but with the Spirit, their questions tied in to the plan of salvation and we were able to teach all of it and commit them both to a baptismal date! </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif;">This week has been great! On Monday, we contacted a referral that had a classic MTC sort of situation, her son had died and she was angry at God. We taught part of the plan of salvation and that really seemed to bring her comfort. We are so excited to see her progress soon! On Tuesday, we had a great lesson with our newly progressing investigators Maria and Eric! We had planned to teach the Plan of Salvation, but they had so many great questions about what they had read in the Book of Mormon and in the pamphlet! They really showed that they have a desire to learn and progress! At the end of the lesson, we were committing them to come just to sacrament meeting, but the Eric said that he wants to come to all three hours to see how it is! They came for all three hours and had a great time! Some of the meetings got a little deep for what they have already learned. We had an Area Seventy who talked in sacrament meeting and it was perfect for them! He talked about the importance of reading and praying to know and to grow your testimony! </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">This week I learned that in every situation, when you are sad or down, the remedy is the work. I have had a couple of days where I just felt sad, but I went out still and gave it my best and the Lord helped me change my attitude. Whenever we have a task to do the Lord qualifies us for it, if we are willing. I really learned how much our efforts and following the Spirit help us teach to the needs of our investigators! We had a lesson where we thought the less-active's problem was a lack of testimony, but the Spirit led the conversation to where we found out her real problem of being sad and bitter about not being able to get sealed. We had two awesome church tours with our investigator with a date and some investigators that we committed them to baptism during the tour. Both times you could tell they felt the spirit and that it was working on them. One super cool thing that came out of it was one member that we brought bore her testimony about missionary work yesterday! That was so cool to hear! One thing that I have been noticing is how important it is to commit investigators to baptism as soon as possible. With that, we have a goal and they have a goal of where all the discussions are going. We have been able to use that this week to see who truly is interested in change and who is not. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">We had an awesome miracle this week! We have been praying for referrals since last transfer, and this week they came in like rain! We received 9 and were able to contact five! Almost all of them showed high levels of interest and a return appointment! It has been such a blessing to find those who want to hear the message! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">I also noticed how cleanliness affects our attitudes as well. I have always had really bad handwriting and it is almost illegible to everyone (including myself). While making a progress record I realized how useless it would be unless it was neat. I made a goal to write in capital letters so that what I write is readable by all. It has been amazing that, 1- my writing is finally legible and 2- how it has affected my attitude. I am not sure why it does, but I feel happier being neater! Elder Choi and I have gotten along well! We are working better and better in teaching in unity! </span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">This week has been hot to say the least. We are making sure to drink a ton of water! One thing that I have noticed with the heat is that in a way, people are kinder to us. They are more willing to let us in or even just let us have some water. It is a really easy way to talk to people, to get to know them better. It seems like everyone can relate better because we are all dying in this heat together. Other than that it has been a good week. </span><br />

He seems so ready, he really is humble enough to accept the message and accept the Savior more into his life. We were super excited for him all week, he said he was coming to church, we were going to have a church tour on Saturday</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"> and then he didn't show up. We found him in the park and he said there was a Christian minister he was listening to. He assured us he was coming to sacrament meeting the next day. He didn't show up and that was kind of sad. The only ones that did were our progressing investigators, Luis and Belen. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">Other than that we just had a regular week. One thing that stuck out was Daniel. He just seems like he is still progressing in the gospel and won't stop. We were street contacting yesterday around his house, so we stopped by. We saw him on his porch reading the Book of Mormon! We went over and talked with him and he asked us about how he could share the gospel with his neighbor! I think it has been such on honor to be able to help him come closer to Christ and to see him continue on that path!

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">This week sure has been a change from other weeks! It has been fun to be back in sun valley! We haven't been able to do much Spanish work, English work has been so busy! The work definitely has been different. Elder Goudin and Elder Woolsey did a lot of service for people that aren't interested in a message. I had to learn more humility and feel more love for these people that really only seemed to want free yard work. Other than that it has been a great week! I think one thing that is so cool about these wards is dinner thoughts. When we have a spiritual thought after dinner, we can ask a question and the members give a solid answer or their testimony relating to that. We had a great time talking with everyone and using different methods to spark their interest. We saw that when we used a different method, we had more success! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">One thing that I saw different this week was my own reaction to people yelling rude things at us. Before it used to freak me out or make me mad. Now I feel sorry for those people. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">One thing I learned about this week was how true it is that the Spirit will open our mouths. We had a lesson about service with a less active member. During it I felt prompted to talk about Nephi as an example of service. I got a little worried, because I wasn't sure what I should say, usually I think of Nephi as an example of obedience, not service. I decided the Spirit knows best, so I just started talking. As I spoke I realized that Nephi served his brothers in being an example and trying to help them choose right. I love that when we trust in the Spirit we can say what our investigators need to hear and we can learn from what we say! I am getting transferred back to my area with Elder Choi again on Tuesday</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">!</span>Tynel Jarnaginhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16870988800212757061noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7939164654672116580.post-91271643605760557512016-07-18T21:59:00.000-04:002016-07-18T21:59:14.195-04:00Baptism and Emergency Transfer<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">From last Monday- Baptism!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I have been learning more about the love that the Lord has for us. No matter where we are, or what we have done, He loves us and wants us to succeed! I know that He is so happy when we take a step closer to him! I was able to feel a little of what He feels when I saw David get baptized this week. He was just so excited and he is already helping others of his friends come to the gospel! It is amazing to see how much the gospel has changed him, from who he was at the beginning of the transfer to now, he has already changed so much! </span><br />

At the end of the week my companions and I had a conversation about success. We talked about how people have their agency, they have the choice to reject us or not and sometimes they use it to reject us. We have to just keep going, because success comes from within. We talked about how obedience, diligence and love for everyone is what makes us successful. When we do those things, we will be changed for the better! </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This week was super awesome! We have had a decent amount of member present lessons, which has been so awesome! It has been good for our investigators to meet more members to be pretty integrated in the branch! We were able to talk with a lot of people on the street, get a return appointment, and have them be new investigators! When the way we do lessons changed, the one thing that I thought would be the hardest would be to get new investigators, now we are used to it, it is very possible! We have found the easiest way to get a solid return appointment is to make sure we state our purpose, relate it to them, and to ask for referrals! We have found a lot of solid people in Sun Valley because of it. </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This weekend/end of the week has kind of been a struggle. I got a call telling me that I was getting Emergency Transferred to be with Elder Gourdin, his companion became the new assistant. I am getting transferred a week early. I am glad I was able to go on exchanges with Elder Gourdin because, just like with any tough experience it seems, it gets easier when you do it, the buildup before of worry is much worse. Now I am super excited to go back to Sun Valley, I am sad to leave my companions, but I can't wait to learn more from Elder Gourdin! </span></span><br />
