December 26 - January 1, 2022

 Hey everyone!


Thanks for the email mom and everything that happened this week. I'm glad everyone was safe and ill be praying for you all as you go back to school! 

Reply: Wow that sounds like a good week and full of miracles! That is crazy you are getting lots of snow and such a cool miracle and tender mercy that Ryan and Christa picked Aust and Ash up from the airport and I'm glad they are safe and good and it sounds fun to spend the new year playing some mario kart! Also that story about the Browns is wild! I can't believe there was a big ole mountain lion there in the moss's! (I'm surprised he didn't snag Zack) but holy cow Kinley got out of there good which is what is really important but I'll be praying for them with coco. But what a wild week for you all but I'm glad it ended with a good ole pie day but I am really grateful that Heavenly Father protects our family through everything.

Also I love the spiritual thought and i have never thought of it that way before the way Satan works but it is so true. He will attack the worth of us and others because when we doubt things just fall apart. I was thinking about here in Benemerito and a lot of members have doubted the leadership here and because of it, their testimony has crippled and really it is important who is the bishop or president but we know that Jesus Christ is in charge of His church and we will never cripple with this knowledge.

My Week: This week was filled with ups and downs i honestly cant remember a whole lot that happened but I'll give you some updates.

This week we continued with searching for lots and lots of Less Actives here and we found quite a few. We found this one family who are so awesome and their house is always open to us but we just got to get them to church. When we meet with them we share Ether 12:41 which helps us realize if we just preserver to the end we will have the blessings from the holy ghost!

Family Cerito: A little update on them is they are so awesome! The three sisters are excited for their baptism and the whole family is starting to join in and read the book of Mormón! But yesterday they all came to church and i am just humbled how the Lord always prepares His children for us and when we are EXACTLY OBEDIENT we will enjoy the blessings but keep praying for them to avoid anything Satan throws in their way.

New Years! Happy New Year to everyone. Hope you all have some good goals to work on and joy in this awesome new year! The 31st was a slow slow day for Elder Cabañas and I. Everyone was gone or sleeping so it was pretty tough but at night we went to a member next door and had dinner and passed the time with them which was good and there were a lot of fireworks all night but it was a fun time. 

I've been reflecting on this past year 2021 where i have been a missionary every single day. I was thinking on all the things I have learned and experienced and i love being a missionary. Even though it is hard some days it is a privilege to represent my Savior Jesus Christ. I love you all so much and have a good week! 

Love Elder Reiley
