Do you want to be happy? :)

Though you won't realize it, I have decided to start my email a little early this week. It is currently 12:35 on a rainy Thursday afternoon during our lunchtime. I know I have missed a few weeks here and there and it has been a big letdown to myself.

Yo soy el Hombre

Welcome back to yet another weekly email! This week was pretty mid. Got a lot of good things that happened last week that just fell apart completely. With that comes probably the toughest news ever . . . Do you remember the one guy that had a massive change and told us he

Week of miracles baby! Starting of with my favorite: Remember one of the miracles from last week? Where we had the prompting to ask someone to be baptized? Well, he stopped responding to us for a hot minute so one day we just decided to go by and visit him.

New Mission President 😎 Who dis?!

As my title states, the Texas Austin Mission got a new Mission President. I, unfortunately, do not have a picture with them but enjoy the picture of me and my companion for now. President and Sister Carter, what a blessing it is to have them leading and guiding the missionaries

Dah Gum! What a wild and wacky week. . .

I think we should start with the most historic event that happened. The death (going home) of two of the best Elder's I have had the pleasure to know. Elder Jake Porter and Elder Ryan Johansen. First and foremost I just want to express my love and gratitude for these

How is it already June?!

Why hello. We had another fantastic week. Just one great week after another. Some Random thoughts: We got a new car. We went from a Toyota Rav4 to a Chevy Equinox. Not sure if it is a downgrade or an upgrade yet, but it has been treating us well though.

Elder Kohl Payne

Oh hey...

Um, yeah last week was something. We are just gonna skip over all that. Just know the car got a flat tire and I was stressed outta my mind. LETS GO! This week has been quite a good one. This past P-day after all the fun under the sun, we

I started the week out well by going to Texas Roadhouse with the district. We got so many rolls! Never had a shortage of rolls. I probably ate 5! If you think about it, that is a lot. That is a basket +1. And with a full meal afterward. . . I

Rain, Rain, Go Away

As I stated in the title, we had rain, this week was back-to-back rainy days. I really enjoyed the rain though. I got to use my fresh raincoat, and it worked like a charm! Due to the rain, it would be kinda hard to talk to people at parks during
