Week 45

Bueno bueno! Que lo que?     GUYS!!! This week was sooo good. Élder LaDeaux and I got to work this week. We decided that this week we wouldn't come back until at least 9 every single night! I'm happy because we definitely kept that goal! We broke it actually. Some nights we got home LATE. I am so grateful for this work and what I'm able to do. The summer time is the time to get out, talk to others, and share a message about Jesus Christ!! Man, I got some stuff to tell you guys so buckle in its gonna be a ride.     As you all know (I hope) Nevada is a desert. It's very dry and hot, especially in the summer. Carson City is a great place! Awesome people, great parks, not completely all brown, but there's one catch. NOT ALL HOUSES HAVE AIR CONDITIONING! Man I hope I don't seem spoiled but I might be. Our house doesn't have air conditioning or anything so the past few nights I've taken an extremely cold shower, then slept right next to the fan and I'm sti...

Como andan mis amigos?!     I hope ustedes estén bien! This week was another really solid week full of absolutely crashed out nights and spiritually filled miracles! Élder LaDeaux is continuing to just absolutely hit the ground running and excelling in the area. It's been super fun to see how much potential so many people have with the message we carry! Like I said though, there were a lot of nights where I came back from the apartment and just hit the bed and called it a night. One morning I woke up in pros clothes... Oops. No but for real we've been working on a lot of things to get this area in tip top shape!     Man, I love being a missionary! There was some pretty cool stuff that happened this week. I went on two exchanges with some amazing Elders! My exchange with Elder Scott was really awesome. His companion and him were very close so it was hard for him to leave him. However we had a great time and were able to work super hard. He is funny and has the right i...

Que pasa mi gente?!?     I hope you all had a good week! I definitely had a very very solid week here. The weather was HOT (except yesterday, very very windy) and people are outside all day! It's so cool because when Élder LaDeaux and I go out we see so many people around us! OH YEAH! I bet you are all dying to know how my new companion is huh? I can literally read your minds right now, you're thinking, "Is he cool? Does he work hard? Is he funny? Does he pick his nose? Does he say some weird catchphrases? Is he short? Does he snore? To those questions I'll say some of them are yes and others are no and I'm going to let you take a guess on which ones are which. He is a really awesome Élder! He also is not too far where I'm from back at home. He lived in herriman Utah and he knows some people I went to high school with. Him and I have very similar music tastes, at least the one I had back home, and is a very very diligent missionary! He loves to tell me about ho...

Muy buenos días!!!     I hope you all are doing well. This week was a BLAST and a great way to end the transfer strong. The weather here in Carson City is a little weird. I won't lie to ya, but I'll take this over blazing hot! I hope all of you had a great week and I'll just get right into it!     I'm sure you all are dying to know once more... Where is Élder LaTour going? Is he staying in Carson City? Is he off to another area to bring others closer to Christ? Is he going to be transferred to a foreign country because his Spanish is so good? I'm afraid to tell you that only one of these answers is correct. I'm staying in Carson City baby! That's right, I'm spending my summer here and I couldn't be more happy about it! However, I can't say the same for my companion. After 3 fun, tiring, crazy, and interesting transfers I'm afraid Élder Loria is leaving. He was so awesome and I definitely think him and I will be friends after the mission! He i...
