Transferred - Lutsk

Hello everybody!

Ran out of time again today so it'll be a short one.

I finally got transferred! As much as I love Lviv, it feels so good to get out of there. I think I was there for long enough and they were getting sick of me. But I love the new area I am in. The city is called Lutsk and it's awesome! 

My companion is the best. His name is Elder Crabtree and he's from Tennessee. We have always told each other we wanted to serve together and the time has finally come! The branch here is awesome. Feels like one big family. 

The Book of Mormon is true. Without a doubt. 

Have a great week!

Transfers!

This is gonna be a super short email because we are rushing around trying to get stuff done before I leave tomorrow!

I got transferred to a city called Lutsk! I've been there a few times on exchanges and loved it so I am so excited to serve there. My new companion will be my buddy from down south Elder Crabtree. We have been super good friends ever since he come out here a year ago so we are pumped to serve together.

This last week was rough. Lots of stuff going on but the Lord continues to provide and watch over me. Thank you all for the emails! I love hearing from you.


Have a good week!

Holiday Post

Christmas haul - Thank you everyone back home
for the love. It's a great way for my last Christmas

Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!

I hope you are all having a great holiday season! Things out here are going great. Time is flying and I can't believe December is over and I can't believe it's 2020! I had exchanges with Elder Howard, my MTC comp, on Monday and we talked about everything! Especially about how we have less than 6 months here!!

Christmas was so good! We spent it mostly with each other as a district. Thanks for all of the emails and love sent from all of you!

We have had a few exchanges these past couple of weeks and they have all been great. One of them was with the AP's and we just talked about how good and successful all of our exchanges have been. The zone is rockin it right now.

We have two investigators that are really progressing right now so please keep them in your prayers!

Happy New Year Y'all! I hope you are all looking forward to a new year!

"The practice of reviewing the past and setting new directions for the future is a very healthy one, a scriptural, encouraging one, in which we can beneficially alter our lives. I commend the practice to you, especially if it is thoughtfully pursued and the resolutions made are made in righteousness, bringing behaviors and attitudes that truly bless your lives and the lives of others. Shakespeare once wrote that one should live so that “Eyes, / That borrow their behaviors from the great, / Grow great by your example and put on / The dauntless spirit of resolution” (King John, act 5, scene 1, lines 48–53)." - Howard W. Hunter


Love you all,
Elder Kenyon Matua
