Total Eclipse💗

This week was just full of lessons which was so much fun!! Teaching people is one of the best parts about missionary work and I just love it! Our friend John (the miracle 20 year old guy we found) is actually the most elect man I've ever met. First off, it's crazy how we met him and secondly he's just so open to learning more. He came to game night with the YSA (young single adults) and was a social butterfly and talked to everyone! The next morning he went to the temple with some members and just sat in the waiting room- like what?!? We hadn't even taught him the first lesson and he's already going to the temple🤯 the YSA members are so awesome because they just take charge and invite him to everything.

Also we stopped by one day to visit John on his farm and he showed us all their animals!! He's renting it from his mom but they own like 40-50 horses. They also have this cow called Norman and it's basically just a pet dog. Norman was so cute. He also showed us some baby kittens and it was so adorable. Anyways John is the best and he's so kind and has truly been prepared to receive the gospel!!

We also met with our friend Cade who's on date for baptism and he's so cool!! This guy is 19 years old and already wants to serve a mission after he's baptized! His conversion story is so cool too. He knew a girl in school who was a member and he wanted to learn more so a few months ago he reached out and started asking questions. So cool to see how her example impacted him and now he has a testimony of Jesus Christ and His gospel! 

We got to watch general conference with some of our friends and members and it was amazing🙌 General Conference is the best. I loved the talk about rays of light and how sometimes we don't have a big spiritual experience that converts us but it's the cumulation of little rays of light that form a testimony! I've seen this in my own life and I've seen it in our friends as they gain a testimony too💗

Also there's a cool solar eclipse happening today so we got some epic glasses to watch it😎

Love and miss you all!!
