Mortensen, Johnathon

Overall good week! Felt slow. Lots of exchanges and lots of miracles as we put forth faith! Got transfer news a couple days ago. Elder Iverson and I are staying in this area. Elder Brower is leaving out to Graham. Elder Iverson and I will be getting another missionary on Wednesday. I am excited to train again and will continue to serve as zone leader. We are still in the Denton YSA ward and it is still going well. Eric was able to get baptized a couple ago and he's been doing great progressing. We were able to do a virtual temple tour of the Laie Hawaii temple with a special friend:) which was super good for Federic. He was baptized last month and we were able to teach about temples and the importance of the everlasting covenant and gospel!  We are continuing to find through campus and members! Little miracle… a girl named Sydney, who is engaged to a man named Jose, would like to get married in the temple in February 2024. Jose's is not a member but would like to start meeting ...

Welp... my p-day switched to today because we are going to the temple today. Last week was a good week. After the Lord’s last baptism of good ol Frederic, we've been able to sift down quite a bit in our teaching pool. Going up and down finding, a lot throughout the campus - its been good. The mic is continuing to work great. Definitely nothing we're doing... all the Lord, couldn’t do it without Him. So glad He gives us the opportunity to even do this work. As we all know He doesn’t even need us but what a blessing He allows us to learn and grow and try and help in his work.   Quote i liked this week was "this church this gospel... it comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comforted". The Lord definitely doesn’t allow us to stay in the comfort zone. Second, the day we think we know what we’re doing is the day we fail! Rely on Him always, every thought, every moment and we will all be able to see his hand in our life!   I hit 18 months today, so that’s somet...
