4th of July
4th of July
Farewell to Pres. & Sis. Nelson
 Here is the letter from this week:

Hello family, this week was a lot of fun! I don't remember much of Monday or Tuesday. But Wednesday we had meet the President and got to talk to President Hurley and his family! They are awesome! He's bringing 4 kids with him! His last is on a mission, and his oldest is up at BYU-I. Crazy. 

For the 4th we had a ward breakfast in one of our wards in the morning which was really good, and then we had no idea what to do after that. It was meant to be a regular day. In the evening we went over to the Shively's who are the coolest people in the world. We hung out with them and saw the fireworks which was awesome! Soooooooooo much fun!  

Friday I had exchanges with Elder Clarke, which was pretty good. We had a good conversation at night about how to become the best missionaries we can be. It was good. 
 
Saturday and Sunday were both pretty good days. Elder Thomas and I struggled with each other a little this week, and he closed down, but I went into the room and kind of forced him to talk, and we had a really good conversation and resolved concerns and disagreements. 
This morning was awesome. So Friday morning and this morning we got to do service in the temple and move furniture around. It is amazing the Spirit that is in the temple, even when it is closed down. Today we hung the veils in the initiatory and endowment rooms. It was really cool. The veil represents the body of Christ, so we were extremely reverent and careful to make sure the were folded nicely and never touched the ground. We got back to the apartment today and I got a call from the assistants. They said that President wanted to meet with me at 4 pm today, and wouldn't tell me what it was about. So I've basically been having a meltdown since then. I'm so nervous. I don't think that I'm ready to be a Zone Leader, especially not after just one transfer as District Leader. So I'm really scared. Anyway, that was my week. I'm glad everything is going well at home! I love y'all so much!
-Elder Trezise

 And then I got this email later in the day:



Hey. So I'm out of Shelley. President just asked me to go down to a different Zone TOMORROW and become a Zone Leader
 
And I had to wait until the next week to find out the rest...stay tuned!

It was a crazy day for Elder Trezise and he didn't call until after 5.  I think being AP takes up a lot of his time.  Here is his letter for this week: Sorry this is so late. It's been a day. Haha. But this week has been a good one. It's been crazy! We had exchanges on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. So yeah. Thursday was with Elder Smith, so that one was AWESOME! But the rest were exchanges with struggling missionaries. So that was more tough. But I had a lot of fun. We also drove up and down and up and down all week across the mission, and it was WILD. So much driving. It has been so, so cool to see the mission field and interact with so many missionaries though. I feel so blessed. Today I wanted to send an email with some lyrics to a song that I have and love. "It's not about having everyone in the world to yourself It's about knowing that someplace you're loved by someone else  It's about singing and hearing more than your ow...

Here is Elder Trezise's letter: Hello family! This week was pretty normal. We had a good amount of lessons, and got soooooooooooo close to finding a new person to teach. We'll get him. His names Ricardo. He's a good kid. Loves the Bible. Other than that, not too much happening this week.    I'm grateful for the opportunity I had to participate in the family's weekly studies this week, even if I didn't get to be a part of the discussion at the end. I hope you all enjoyed the talks. "Be 100% Responsible" is one of my favorites of all time! It's so good! And it really teaches us how much control we have over our lives. Other people's choices don't change the outcome of our lives, just the course. Same destination. What decisions we make despite others agency is where our true character lies. Being 100% responsible is what allows us to have full control of our lives. Because if we are responsible, then no matter what others ...
