It's actually lowkey kinda crazy that it's 2026. As a missionary, you love the holidays. But like, they don't really feel any different, and it just makes you mad cus everywhere is closed, and you have to resort to McDonalds.
But Hey, hope ya'lls new year parties were as fun as they could be without me there to really bring the party. Just give it a couple, and I'll be back better than ever 
This week was pretty awesome sauce though. So life is going just great. Quite dandy.
Wednesday we watched the funeral for Elder Holland, and it was super great. 10/10 would recommend if you wanna feel the spirit. Bro was actually the G.O.A.T. Starting the Elder Holland conference talk grind, it's pretty epic. It's New Years Eve so we had to do something. We pulled up to our stake New Years party, and let me tell you. It was so flippin epic. Lowkey turned into a high school dance party. The whole surrey zone was there, so there were a tone of misisonaries. And we only semi moshed. So we were obedient. But the memebers loved it, so it may or may not have gotten pretty crazy. Or I guess. Crazzy Fun!!!!!!! (Yes, missionaries are real people, and we do like to have fun) Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
Then the Happy New Year day arrived. Did an early morning exchange with Elder Tompy. And let me tell ya, this day went as not according to plan as you can get. Every thing was closed. We had a lesson cancel on us. And it was crazy. But you learn a lesson. It was annoyingly really funny, but we saw two really awesome miracles. Our final resort was McDonalds, and we ended up on hitting every McDonalds here in white rock. And apparently, chinese people love Mickeedeez. And we had two really awesome convos at two seperate McDonalds. So it is true when people say the Lord is guiding His work.
Thursday we had an epic Zone Conference. And I was fed. Very Spiritually. And also very physically, which I will never complain about. Then had PickleBall night!!! Yes! Halleluijah. The member who runs it is finally back, so I'm boutta ball out.
Friday was pretty epic. It was raining like crazy, so we were left with no choice but to go to big ol' Timmy's. And we ended up having like a 2 hour long conversation with this super awesome lady. Taught her like half the princaples, and gave her a BOM. But at the end we asked for her number and she was like mmmmmm... Let's leave it in the Lords hands and see what happens. Which is funny cus we spent a lot of time talking about God's plan for us, which slightly backfired. But if it be His will (and I really hope it is), then we will meat her once again. That night we had our missionary new years dinner. Which was us three sets of missionaries cooking up some grub at the church. I made BBQ chicken wraps. They were pretty gas.
But that a wrap on the holiday celebrations
Hehe
Fast sunday. A missionaries favorite. But it was super good. Our friend Martin came to church and bro teared up during the sacrament hymm. Which you'd think, awwww, that's super touching. But like no seriously it is. He actually has no knowledge or any backgroun about religion. It's kind of weird for me. Cus like, he just doesn't know anything, but bro is so willing to learn. So I'm excited, and hoping he will be touched by the spirit again. Later that day we proceeded to have another 2 hour conversation with this guy at a community centre. Then came home and at 'Costco Lasagna' sooooo blessed!
Monday we had a successful knocking run of 2/3 houses. First yet of the mission. So pretty epic. The rest of the day was chilly. So we did what every other missionary would do on a chilly day. Hit a cheeky late night lil' Caesers run. Don't worry, we were only 1 minute late after curfew...
Today, we played a narly game of throw throw the burritto. And lemme tell ya. The burritto was thrown!
Epic
Lowkey don't know who said this or where I it from, I think it was Zone Conference. But check this out:
"To know such a God that is first and foremost a parent. A father."
How cool is that. God is an all powerful being. He can do anything. He's Alpha and Omega. He's Omnipotent. But the most important thing? He's a father. He's your Father. He's my Father. and even better, He's our Loving Heavnely Father. How cool is it that His first job is to be a father. And He's a perfect father. I see how cool my dad is, love ya, (love you too mom), and it's just so cool to see that Heavenly Father is the same way. His whole goal is for each one of us to be happy, and to be joyful. And He will do everything in His power, giving us agnecy, to be that way.
Pretty Neat huh?
Peace Y'all
Blessed New Year coming our way
