Conquest of Melbourne

  Malo e lelei ! What a blessed week this has been. So much to tell you all about. It truly has been one of the highlights of the entire mission so far. And dont worry im trying my best to journal about it all for the future. But here's the rundown of some of my favorite things this week.  We'll start off at the beginning of the week and go through in order. Monday was a blast, talked to my family for a while, went on a little ocean overlook hike, and played a quick round of mini golf. Honestly a pretty solid pday. And it was Elder Bachman's first pday so we tried to make it fun.  Throughout the week, we had some really good lessons with a few of our friends. And one of them we put our other friend Daniel on date for September 14!! Super excited for him and he wants his kids to be baptized soon after so hopefully that all goes well. He's super eager, just a few more things we need to do with him. But things are looking good for them.  The highlight of the week was wi...

 What's good all my friends and family! What an amazing week this has been, I cant wait to tell you all about it. Absolutely a week of miracles, so you might need to get some snacks or something🍿🍿 Well, rewind back to LAST pday, which was prolly one of the best ones we've had. All of the Elders got together which was really fun. And we ended up going to this place called Hijinx Hotel cuz we had some free passes. We  were expecting it to be an escape room, but we were wrong. Turns out you go through and there's 8 rooms, and each is an interactive mini game thing where you try and score the most points against other teams going through the rooms. For example there was a basketball hoops one, a guess the song one, a giant Simon says game, one where you try and hit buttons all around the room that light up, and one where you are in a giant ball pit and you gotta put as many balls into holes that light up on the walls. It was crazy and a ton of fun. After that, we had 1 hour f...

  Sorry this ones gonna be quick, but next week ill have a long one and fill you all in.  I'm doing super great! The mission is so fun and its been awesome. All of our friends are progressing really well and its been fun seeing them grow closer to Christ.  We got transfer news and I'm staying in Moorabbin with Elder Willis. HOWEVER we're trio training a brand new missionary so we'll go pick him up Friday.  Always remember that as you devote any amount of time and energy to the Lord, he will make it easier to continue. As you yoke yourself to him, he will make our burdens light. All it takes is that first step and some effort. Matthew 11:28-30. If you need help taking that step there is someone, you just have to reach out. And if you need anything from me don't be afraid to message or email me! I love you all and I appreciate the love and support you all show me. It does not go unnoticed. Have fun at the fair, tis the season. And good luck at school everyone who'...

  Herro everyone!  I cant believe another week has already passed, time is absolutely flying by. For me at least. But hey, time flies when your having fun i guess. And we absolutely have been having some fun. The most fun you could possibly have as a missionary for the lord,  is spreading his gospel and teaching whenever possible. And oh boy have we been able to do a lot of that. We have like 6 friends that were teaching right now, which keeps us busy. But its so amazing to see their love and understanding of Jesus Christ and his gospel grow each day. Its so incredible how much change and joy God can bring to our lives. 2 of our friends are preparing for baptism soon, so that is super exciting, and we can't wait for them to take this step to build a covenant relationship with the Lord. This week we have had heaps of lessons, and its so fun to teach. It not only helps them learn, but it helps me understand more about these principles. I have learned so much through th...
