To mom or
dad who ever reads this first
So today
is my first preparation day and man the time has flown by. Since I am at west
campus it is a little different than main campus. There are around 600 plus
missionaries here at west campus. Its really small but awesome since we get so
close to people really quick since a group is leaving every day. The food on
west campus is very bland and boring. We don't really have a cafeteria yet so we
have donuts, cereal, sandwiches, and simple stuff for dinner. Other than
that its been amazing. My companero ( companion) is Elder Johnson he is a big
guy from Salt Lake City, Utah the Holiday area. He played football so we are
getting along very well. the spirit is soo strong here its very humbling and
power full. The second or third day you are here they give you a pretend
investigator that you have to teach the lessons and eventually baptize them. My
investigator is named Macarena she is from Neuquén Argentina. The lessons are
coming along we just challenged her to get baptized in Spanish. Its crazy how
much you learn in one day or in one hour of studying. The spirit plays a huge
role in that and I immediately feel the spirit leave when I get frustrated at
myself. I'm working on that a lot. I have learned so much about the gospel I
feel like my head is going to explode.
So to
Emma ya we have P-days mine is every Thursday once a week. Today my goals
are to do some laundry, clean the room, go up to main campus to eat good food
and find people. Other than that P-day is like Christmas. My companion and I
have started writing a song to celebrate P-day and P-day eve haha its awesome.
Oh ya and Emma on Sunday nights we meet all of us and watch church movies like
that I think we get to watch that one next week. Since I only get computer
time once a week you will have to be patient with me. That's awesome story
about the purse I know the Lord answers my prayers every day. Let me tell
you I pray more in one day than I did all of last year. When ever I am tired or
stressed or thinking too long I start to pray. All is well that food is ok is
guess, the beds are rock hard and its the hardest thing I've every done but I
know this will be the best two years of my life. Oh so there is a ton of elders
and hermanas ( sisters ) going to Idaho Nampa and Boise so say hi to
them.
Tuesday night we have devotionals at the Marriott Center and a general authority
speaks. our speaker was Brother MaKormac the old mission president of Idaho. he
gave an awesome talk. While I was sitting there I looked over and there was
a kid that looked like Ben Sowards and so I yelled and he looked so than I
really yelled and than he saw me and than I ran over a mob of Asian elders trying
to get to him. I thought he would be gone but I guess he has one more week
here before he leaves to Korea. I was soo excited to see Elder Sowerds. He is
doing well super excited to leave for Korea. I'm going to try and find him
today hopefully I can. we need to take some pictures together before he leaves.
oh ya and I saw Elder Albertson ( Parker ) today is his first day he looks like
he is handling everything well. I have seen a couple other people here from
Skyview and Columbia and Mountain View.
Oh ya so
since I don't have the time to write every day the hand mail or Dear Elder will
probably work best but I will only have time to write one big email and than
a couple of hand letters so I apologize if it takes a week. My physical
address is
Elder Tyler Logan Ashworth
AUG27 ARG-NEU 2023 N 900 E Unit 821
Provo
UT 84602
Oh and a happy elder is a elder with mail or boxes wink wink :)
so I would love to hear from any one and every one. I will try to answer all
questions and thoughts hopefully all is well is Idaho. I will start up loading
or sending physical pictures as soon as I can
Yo testifico El Libro do Mormon
es verdad. Yo testico que El Profeta Monson es un profeta. Yo se El Libro de
Mormon es verdad.
My testimony is growing daily. Oh ya Walker and Troy need to
write me ASAP!
Elder Ashworth
