My Testimony

Hey Brother Polson, here is a paragraph of my testimony!  It’s hard to exactly put into words just how much my mission truly means to me but the best way I can explain it is that my mission gave me the tools needed to build a house that is a reflected image of it’s foundation so that when the natural disasters come a few windows may break or a door may fall off or the whole house could be gone but the foundation upon which the house is built remains! Christ is the bedrock upon which I’ve chose to build my foundation and my mission gave me the tools needed so I can fix what is broken and allow him to fix the things in which I cannot for that is the very purpose of his atonement and his mortal ministry!

Hey yall, my apologies for not sending emails these last couple of weeks. I've been contemplating my relationship with the Savior and my upcoming release as his representative. These last few weeks have brought with it joy, pain, frustration, sorrow, weakness, and happiness. I've said goodbye to old friends made some new ones and have been enduring to the end. I can't believe the end is here it's crazy how we've talked about it the whole time and now it's actually here. In the mission field we call missionaries going home that they are "dead" or "Dying" and as I've been reflecting on the meaning of this my mind has been drawn to the thought of the life ministry death and resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ. There are a couple verses in Mark I would like to share with you that pertains to the very point I've reached on my mission. Mark 14:32-36 32 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to his disciples, S...

Hey y'all, what's up! This week has been an absolute blur as usual we've been Mega busy just been working and grinding away! We had a day on Tuesday we went around and had a bunch of appointments that we had to go to so that was cool and then Wednesday and Thursday we had Zone conference and then interviews the next day which that was fire we talked about six points from a general Authority and it's completely changed how our mission does missionary work! So we didn't really get off to the best start our first like real legit lesson was on that Friday so but we still did good this week we ended the week with one find two mpls and then we had six people come to church so it was a good week! We still have the same friends we're teaching they are all progressing really nicely! And then today for p-day we went and played basketball down in Florence for a while and you already know we're pulling it up from way downtown other than that just been hanging out nothin...
