Hey guy, 

Its been a great week! Let me start off by saying how much I love Tennessee! There is never a dull moment here haha! We got a call from a member in our ward named brother Parker they needed our help delivering a calf! It was a pretty amazing experience and definitely one that I wouldn’t have been given the chance to do if I wasn’t here! 

Another cool experience that I had this week was a call that we got from a sister in our ward…when I was in high school I completed my first year of electricians license! This is something that I really enjoy doing! Well, her family needed our help. They were moving and had to leave their house they were selling. The plan was to move into a tiny house until the real house is finished. Well they got scammed by their electrician and had no idea what they were going to do! Well I can testify to y’all that God works mysteriously and he always has a plan! 

We got the call at about 10:00 pm. In a pretty somber voice she asked us if we had any work experience in construction, I told her about my work experience in electrical…She then began crying and telling us that it was a complete answer to her families prayers! She told us everything that went down with her electrician and that she had no idea what she was going to do! She told us that it was such a blessing from Heavenly Father!

The next day we showed up at the work site and I got to work! I ran all the wires, installed all the boxes, put in the can lights and ran it all to the breaker I had installed! Who would have known that something I love so much and practiced would be exactly what this family needed! 

I can Testify to y’all that Heavenly Father loves and knows us all! He sent us his son so that we could have an Endless Comforter to be with us always! 

Before I end this I want to tell one more amazing experience that happened this week! So me and my companion were planning a couple weeks back and we came across this woman named sister Akins. She was baptized about 25 years ago but had been in active most of that time. We both felt super prompted to go visit her! We drove to her house, it was quite an adventure haha! For those of you that have never been to Tennessee they really like to make their roads as narrow as possible with no shoulder!  It’s all rolling hills! At the side of each road there is a 6 foot drop for all the rain they get so it so it’s definitely pretty intense haha! 

We made it to her house safely and knocked on the door! She opened it and was so happy to see us! She lives in a tiny trailer home with her 4 kids and husband! She told us about how life has been really hard on her family and that she had been praying to feel God’s peace again in her life! She told us so come back again and teach her whole family!  We have been teaching them every Thursday and calling them every Saturday! We had the opportunity to put her whole family on date and their daughters friend as well! They are all getting baptized on the 20th of February and I couldn’t be happier for them! I have really gained a testimony that family’s can be together forever! I constantly thank my Heavenly Father for the amazing family I have been given! Well I love y’all!

Much love
