Honestly, not too much to report on this week. 

As you all know, church's got cancelled, temples got closed, and there are missionaries around the world finishing their missions early. It's crazy how much seems to be going on in the world. But I'm not letting it affect me. I still get to proselyte and work hard. We even brought the Sacrament to 14 people we are teaching yesterday! It was amazing!!!
 
This whole experience has made my testimony of our prophet sky-rocket though! Nearly two years ago President Nelson addressed us, giving us "Come Follow Me", telling us that we are moving toward becoming a home centered church. How amazing is it that the Lord prepares us for the future?!?!? Now is the time when a home centered church is exactly what we need. With churches closed worldwide what do we do? The Lord was prepared. We have been practicing being home centered for a year and a half. And even more amazing to me is the actual content of the "Come Follow Me." In this, the week they closed, the final chapter of the week to study from was Jacob chapter 4. And what does Jacob say?
"Wherefore, we search the prophets, and we have many revelations and the spirit of aprophecy; and having all these bwitnesses we obtain a hope, and our faith becometh unshaken, insomuch that we truly can ccommand in the dname of Jesus and the very trees obey us, or the mountains, or the waves of the sea."
 
He testifies of prophets, and how they bring him hope and faith. It is no coincidence. My dear family, I promise you, with EVERYTHING I have that we have a living prophet on the Earth in Russel M. Nelson. When we follow his council we are following Christ's council. I love being a part of this church. I love learning and growing each day. I know this church is true. Please prepare yourself now. Please study and come closer to Christ. You cannot imagine the peace He offers. I love you all so much!!!

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 ...
