Literally 0 idea what happened this week.



I'm legit reflecting as hard as I can right now and my brain is a blur. The struggle.

So I feel like a lot happened this week and that's probably why I can't remember anything...Kinda sad that I have to email on Tuesday so much!! I'll have to in 2 weeks from now too :// but soon iPads will solve that issue!

Well let me think...I'm currently on exchanges with my Zone Leader, his name is Jesse too :D he has a bunch of tatts, like a ton, and he's a convert, he's so great. We are having a joyus time. It's kinda rough the fact that President called me the baptism rainmaker because now I just take mad heat for it all the time...like when I walk in some place everyone is like "Hey look it's the rainmaker." haha #Blessed. The Zone Leaders said they are going to make me a T-Shirt, I wouldn't mind.

Happy birthday Joey!! Don't worry I didn't forget, a card is on it's way :)) You are awesome man, I hope you had a good birthday.

So we are teaching 1.5 million people still. Chloe gets baptized this week, woot woot. And President Passey is coming on Saturday to interview Neriah's mom, Miriam, for baptism (since she has to get 1st Presidency approval and such) So that will be sicckkk. We also just got like 2 new referrals on Sunday from people that wanna start taking the lessons, IT NEVER STOPS. Which is good. hah. One of whom is a lady I've talked to before, she had her records removed because her husband cheated on her, therefore she no longer believed in the church #SoLameLady but she is ready to come back I guess...which is pretty weird because it doesn't count as a convert baptism..but whatever, also Nichole is planning on getting baptized in a few weeks AND Caleb, who is the Perreira families cousin..moved in with them, and he now wants to be baptized..so June 27 is his date. He is super sweet, 17 years old, and a recovering addict, me and him are good friends.

So yeah basically this week we have taught a million lessons and are preparing people to get baptized...transfers are in 2 weeks and I'm probably leaving. It will be strange and I'm bracing myself for an area that probably won't be so prosperous, but I'll go where you want me to go dear Lord!! #Hymnals.

Oh we also had the Temple trip this week!! Which is always just super wonderful. It was sweet to go with the whole zone, I'll send a pic, our zone is sickkkkk.

I apologize for sending, very possibly, the worst weekly email I have ever written. So much is going on I cannot think right now haha. Next week things will calm down hopefully. BUT TO ALL MY BEAUTIFUL FRIENDS THAT ARE LEAVING ON MISSIONS I LOVE YOU THATS SO SICK KEEP IT UP. 

One last thing!
This is super cool!! So in the Gila Valley this guy in my ward told me he was going up to Salt Lake City to do a new video for the church..and it just came out!!! Me and this guy worked together all the time so you should watch the video! His name is Chris Taylor, and its the "His Grace" videos..http://www.mormonchannel.org/watch/series/his-grace/life-after-war-and-overcoming-post-traumatic-stress
WATCH IT FOR ME.
Love, Elder Mitchell <'333 :'D :') 


I KNOW SOMETHING THAT IS SLIGHTLY INTERESTING AND EXCITING I DID THIS WEEK.
I learned how to solve a rubiks cube in less than 24 hours. And now I'm a pro. I've been told..now this is just rumor..that that's like 3 weeks faster than 90% of human beings. Anyway, not important, but I still did it. Bye!



Sorry the pics not very great. I have a spiritual thought though!! I've been trying to work on humility and Elder Bednar said if you want humility study Moses...so at the beginning of Moses, God shows Moses like the creation from the beginning and everything, and it's super intense and Moses is like trippin hardcore. and in Moses 1:10 he says "Now, for this cause know that man is nothingwhich thing never had supposed." I thought about that...and I don't think I have ever supposed that man is nothing...but its so true...we are worthless compared to God, yet he still loves us and cares about us so much! anyway I just thought it was cool, loves :)
