4 manに成った！

We gained another missionary in the area. I'm back to a duo and we are opening a new area but don't know which city yet. So we are traveling a lot to see what city is best. It'll be a lot of long buses but I'm hyped to see the new areas. 

We had Zone confrence which was pretty great. I always love the trainings given especially by our mission president and his wife. Very spiritually empowering which starts the week off amazing.  

Had some good days with talking to people here in Tomakomai. I love getting to share this message with all those around.

We also invited a friend to baptism, and he really has a hard situation but he is going to pray and get back to us. So I'm hyped to hear back from him.

It was very sad to hear about President Nelson but also amazing to think about all the amazing things he has done. And I was able to re-read some of his talks. This is one of my favorite quotes from him.

"Contention drives away the Spirit—every time. Contention reinforces the false notion that confrontation is the way to resolve differences; but it never is. Contention is a choice. Peacemaking is a choice. You have your agency to choose contention or reconciliation. I urge you to choose to be a peacemaker, now and always."

President Nelson was so loving, charitable, and Christlike. I hope I can keep making a difference in people's lives by sharing messages and words like this given to us through Prophets. 

Love you all!♥️
