Elder Larson ~ Texas to Argentina

What's up everybody? Super crazy week haha. It was actually really slow, but there was a couple really cool things that happened so I'm super pumped right now. Where to start where to start. I dont know if we are actually supposed to be doing this, but our new zone leader is super set on having us go street contact, no complaints here, so we have been doing a bit of that. But street contacting is a little bit more difficult than I thought. There just isn't a lot of people out on the streets. No miracles here yet, give us a week though😤😤. We got to go see The Lamb of God this week, in theaters, that was pretty cool. It was super powerful, and you all MUST go watch it this week. We had a testimony meeting right after, and everybody was crying haha it was crazy. The music is sooo good. It was crazy it was like a half hour drive, and nobody in our quad spoke the whole way. Everybody was exhausted after it, definitely felt like a fraction of what Joe Smith felt after getting t...

How's it goin yall? Lemme tell ya, Texas english is an art. Seriously the most convenient language ever. To be honest Fort Worth isn't really the whole Texas experience, but theirs definitely a couple of people straight out of an Old Western movie it's so sick. Transfers happened this week, nothing too crazy to be honest. Still with the vegan Elder Ellis, haha. Besides the lack of member meals hes pretty cool. Our district is pretty cool, but this is the second lamest that I've ever seen Alliance, so we are in for a ride haha. Oh and all the homies are gone now😪. Elder Wilhelm finally got booted from the district chat, may he rest in peace. Pretty normal week, until the weekend. The weekend was kinda crazy, just doing straight service and stuff. Saturday alone we did like 9 hours, I'm still exhausted from it. In terms of investigators, still none. Still no way that we can actively find more as well. Gonna keep praying for them referrals tho Pretty much just a norma...

What's up all yall? How've you all been? It's been a really boring week out here not gonna lie. As you'd expect with a vegan, our meal calendar hasn't been getting filled up much at all haha. I think we have one meal for the rest of the month at the moment. Super pumped about that. Our contact with other humans was severely limited this week. Without member dinners and service we were stuck in the apartment all week. There were a couple asians who speak almost no English, they had us do some modeling for their business website haha, then they were like "oh ya we give you donut" and I was like ight cool, and they were like "saturday we give you donut" and they gave us like 3 boxes filled with donuts. haha they are hilarious. We tagged along with the Bonds ranch elders, and taught Humra, she's the Muslim lady from Afghanistan. She's awesome, she's so interested in learning about our church, and if she wasn't held back by Islam, she ...

What's up everybody? How yall doing? It's been wild out here in Fort worth. Haha just kidding I've really had the same week every week since I've gotten here. It's not a bad thing, stuff gets a bit monotonous and I know the members too well at this point haha. Where do I even start? We have continued the trend of doing a ton of service, which has been good. It has been a lot of moving, which is probably not so good for my back. That's all good though. We've been able to get out a bunch, which has been good for my comp, he struggles when there’s nothing to do. Not ideal for a quarantine missionary to say the least. As far as missionary work goes, there is no missionary work. It's been pretty rough, especially since I've contacted everyone we could possibly contact in our area about 3 or 4 times over. Pretty frustrating, but I'm over it. Other than that, things are keeping me busy. They lined me up with 9 english connect students, about 8 more than...

What's up everybody? It's been a wild one. Really bittersweet. On the bright side of things, we did almost 20 hours of service, so that was nice. On the not so bright side of things, stuff is not looking too pretty for any of our interested persons. Yikes. Like I said all of our investigators disappeared, one flat out rejected us, the other is hiding from us, and the last is still pretty solid, but we can't meet with her till covid is fixed and stuff. So it's the same Avondale that it was a month ago. I love our ward, but the missionary work is going nowhere, so that's frustrating. Oh yeah and I hit 6 months on the 25 or the 26, depending on how you look at it. Pretty cool. The 26th was crazy. We helped a lady move, and that was crazy. Super sad situation. Then we had a lesson with Brandon, but actually got his door slammed in our face, and that was about that. Yall all been probably wondering what the subject is all about. Well, you guessed it, I met Rudy Gobert! H...
