April 24, 2018  1/4 of my mission done! ​Well another week gone. It's crazy to think that I just finished 1/4 of my mission..... What the heck!?! Well it's been crazy awesome! I have learned so much and have grown so much as a person. Im not going to lie Im still very load and um same old me but my perspective on life for sure has changed. My testimony in my Savior Jesus Christ has grown so much. I know I just don't think I know my Savior Jesus Christ suffered for me!!! I love John 3:16-17 "16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.". I love replacing world with my name. You have to change some words up to make sense of it but try it for yourself. It tells me even if I was the only person on this planet, God still would send his son for me. So I could ...

Amazing facebook missionary experience-April 16, 2018 Well this was a very exciting week for me as I got my first baptism of the mission  . Not that it's about how many baptisms at all but it's so great to see someone progress and then end up making a covenant to always remember Him (Jesus Christ) and live worthy to have the spirit with us by living the commandments God has given us. I know that I have for sure reaped the rewards of doing so and continue to as I am obedient to my Heavenly Father and doing as he wants us to do. It's so amazing to me that I can know what to do as I strive to be like my Savior. There are some key attributes that the Savior has that I am striving for and invite all of you as well. They are faith in Jesus Christ (something we need if we want to be like him haha), hope, Charity and Love, Virtue, Knowledge, Patience, Humility, Diligence and Obedience. So I know that sounds like a lot to work on all at once. It for sure is for me!! So I choose...

Lance Nels Fibke-April 7, 2018 Apr 9 Well another pretty amazing week! I don't think there's a week that goes by where I don't love at least something haha. Some days are a little less fun then others but there are always a day of miracles that just makes you so happy and makes being out here so worth it. This week's highlight has to be being asked to confirm our investigator a member of the church, after she is baptized. As well, we had a general authority come talk to us about repentance. There were two things that he spoke of that really stuck out to me. First was "the Lord will make gold mines in the worst of situations, but this will happen only if/when you turn to him." He may have said it a little differently but something along those lines. But it made me smile because like I mean I can sometimes feel pretty down when things aren't going my way. But when that happens I turn to my Lord and miracles always end up hap...

Mar 26, 2018 Just pictures!  B eing out here has blessed me so much memorization wise and just like studying wise and all- its crazy!!  I like reading Jesus the Christ now!  It isn't a big deal, before my mission I would've got through a page and been like na. God is blessing me so much mentally!! As well as physically. I can stay awake and very alive all day!! My work outs are going great too!!

My mission president really emphasizes doing stuff now so you do it later because a mission isn't long... Anyway he is an awesome man! Its been a blast these past 5 months and I cant believe how fast its flying by!!! 1/4 done ...

March 19, 2018 Another week...it was crazy busy and full of more amazing experiences. First, let me say that I am so blessed to be out here, the blessings that have came to me and continue to come as I work hard are unbelievable. It is very humbling meeting the people we do on a daily basis. Many of the people we are in contact with come from some pretty crazy places and have been in some places that they weren't too happy about. But as I get to teach these people and they tell me about what they have been through or are going through I can't help but say a pray to my Heavenly Father as I have been blessed so much to not have had to go through many of the things that others have been. I was reading about trials and enduring to the end for some of the people we are teaching that is applicable to their lives as well as mine and I came across this from The reward of enduring well by President Henry B. Eyring "Our trials and our difficulties give us the opportunity to learn an...

March 12, Monday O my gosh!! If I've ever had a busy week in my life this one was it!! I am so insanely blessed to be able to keep so busy so much!!! I was able to see so many miracles and so much growth in people we are working with and finding everyday!!! We had the opportunity to have zone conference  on Wednesday  (a big meeting that's all day with a lot of other missionaries that happens once every six weeks). As well as another full day thing at the temple  on Saturday ! It was so amazing!!! I loved being able to take one new member and two returning members to do temple work!!! Two of which had never been before!!! As we work with so many people in inviting them to come unto Christ and learn more about our believes we see a change for the better in so many people! Even just little things such as a cleaner house next time you come to visit, more cheerful and enthusiastic about what they are learning and the list goes on and I love seeing it as the gospel does chang...
