"Preach the Gospel at all times, and if necessary, use words"

Mother's Day phone call home!
It has been a great week here in the Holbrook area! Since I got here about 2 weeks ago, I've only been in this area for about 4 full days.. The main reason why is because of the different meetings that my companion and I have had to attend to.

I screenshot a picture of Elder Sandberg's address for you all!
I don't know if the sign is still up!
 
My comps name is Elder Van Ry. He is from Riverton, Utah. He likes long walks on the beach as well as bubble baths.. Him and I get along super well. We live in what used to be a video store. It is on main street, and we have random people walking in our house thinking it is a business sometimes... Like this morning! I was doing my thing, making some eggs and protein when I hear the screen door open, and I hear someone trying to open the door! They then started to knock so I picked up my tomahawk and answered the door. Boy! If you could've seen the look on that guys face! HAHA! I guess that's what it's like to be on the other side of having people knock on your door and answer with a weapon.. :D

The work is going great, from the 4 days I've been here, and this week will be a better one.. I'm ready to get out there and tear it up! The greenie fire is back and not much will stop me from leaving everythin
g on the line for this last little stretch!

Last Saturday, Elder Quentin L Cook of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles came and spoke to our mission.. What a powerful experience that was! His witness of the Savior will be something I will treasure and hold sacred for the rest of my life.. He talked about your true success is based on your act of inviting. Not just as missionaries, but members as well. You can know you are successful by how often you invite people to do various things!

Love you all!

Happy Mothers Day! 

Elder Brayden James Sandberg
