JACE - Bottom of the 9th!

January 13, 2025

Hey Everyone!


It's been a pretty good couple weeks. We've been able to find a few people and have a couple good lessons, too! Not gonna lie, though, with it getting colder here and people not wanting to really talk with us, it's been pretty hard. But our most progressing friend, Sheritha, is doing great. Her biggest hang up is the true authority we have to baptize. To be fair to her, she grew up in a different religion, so it's still a struggle to realize that some things need to be done right. So please pray for her to gain that witness. She luckily already seems to love everything else about the church, but she just needs that last push.

In the member meals, I've been the one primarily sharing the message at the end, and I have a message based on the talk Pillars and Rays by Elder Dushku from last April. In it, I always give the challenge to be a ray of light for others. That's why I always ask y'all to look for and be rays of light. So don't forget to do it!

Love y'all!
Sincerely,
Elder Buchanan

JACE - And A Happy New Year!

December 31, 2025
Hey Everyone!
I hope you all had an amazing Christmas! Did y'all get anything cool? I sure hope so! Christmas out here was ok. Not anything too grand or nothing. We got to spend Christmas Eve and Day with some members. Not gonna lie, it kinda hurt a little to see grown siblings messing around and laughing with each other. But at least it's the last one I have to miss. Not much else happened this week. We did find 3 people on Saturday and 2 people came to church. One of which was a total surprise. All in all, things are going well. Still weird to think that by this time next year, I'll have been home for a little bit.
Don't forget to be miracles for others! It'll bring some your way, too! Make it a New Year's Resolution that you don't quit!
Love Y'all!
Sincerely,
Elder Buchanan
