Well...That's All Folks!

Well folks... thats all for now. The show has come to an end. I really can't believe it. This last week has been good.  The baptism we had this week went great! This has really been such an amazing experience and I've learned so much from it.  I have seen miracles.  I've been able to make people happy with the gospel and that makes me happy. 

I'd just like to share a scripture that I found with everyone.  ''Having many things to write unto you, I would not write with paper and ink, but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.'' -2 John 1:12 ...So thats basically all I have to say... haha. I love you and I'm excited to see y'all!

Much Love

PS- After I'm released... Texas Roadhouse is fine with me!!! I'm craving a fat steak and some sweet butter rolls.

Trying Hard to Stay Focused Until the End!

It’s so weird to think that this will be the second to the last time I write y’all! Well this week was really good. We had 2 baptisms for two young girls that came to church a few weeks ago with a friend. They really liked church and the young women’s program…also los dos gringos guapos! Their baptism service was super cool. We had it on the night of the mutual activity so a ton of people were there to support them. One of them already wants to go on a mission so that’s really cool! We are having another baptism on Tuesday…so things are going great.

I can’t believe how fast these last few weeks have passed.  It’s unreal. I started buying some souvenirs and other stuff, like a sweet hammock to chill in. I’ve completely fallen in love with soccer so I’m looking forward to playing more when I get home. That’s why there is a picture of me with a fat poster of a sweet team that I love. 

I’m trying hard to stay focused and not think too much about home. It’s kind of inevitable sometimes… especially with a companion that’s from Arizona too. I really don’t have much to say that I can’t tell y’all in a couple weeks ha ha!  I love you all and hope everything is just swell back home. I’m excited to see everybody in 10 DAYS!

Much Love,

Having Fun Exploring!

Hola Familia!

I can’t believe how fast the time is going by.  Me and my companion work super good together.  We have two more baptisms set for this week. It’s weird to think that I won’t be here for the other baptisms of the people that we’re working with now.

My companion and I have been doing a little exploring up in the mountains. We have a lot of fun working together… maybe too much fun:-)  Well... I have a lot to tell you but I’ll just wait until I get home!  I love you all so much!

Love, Elder Hoy

Another Great Week!!!

Hey Mamasita! So this week was another great week for us. The work is going good and we have 3 people with baptismal dates. Me  and my companion are getting along so great. He has about 3 and a half months left so we are both old. We would have been best friends outside of the mission.  I’m really excited that we can hang out after. Yeah... we have a good group of kids serving here in this mission from Arizona so it will be really cool to get together after and hang out and speak Spanish together:-)

That’s so exciting that Grandma is going to come for my homecoming talk! Is this going to be the first time she comes to visit us in AZ?  I have to give a killer talk!!!  Things are just going super good. The time is flying by and I literally can’t believe how little time I have left in the mission. It still doesn’t feel real. 

Here are some funny pictures of me and my companion being twins one day and another in one of those Nacho Libre bike carts. It was a lot of fun! Well I love you all so much and I’m going to  keep working hard and have a great last couple weeks!

Much Love,

Time is Flying By!

Hey Mamasita and family,

Well everything is going super good for us. We had a baptism yesterday for this lady that was prepared by the Lord. She had been taught by the missionaries about two years ago but because of some problems she had, she couldn’t get baptized. We found her at the beginning of February and yesterday she got baptized. It was really cool to see how easily she accepted all of the things that we taught her. 

My companion and I are getting along great. We are working really hard together but still having a lot of fun at the same time. A good companion makes all the difference. All of the kids from Arizona in this mission are super cool and I’m looking forward to hanging out with them after we finish our missions. I can’t believe we are already in March! It’s sooo crazy!

I’m fine singing solo for Sacrament meeting and I’ll sing whatever. There will be a couple weeks before I sing after I get home so we can figure it out then. I know that in the states they want to know like a month before, but they’ll just have to deal with it :-) or if Chelsea is there I can sing with her like we did when I left.

 Well... I love you all and hope you have a great week! Time is flying faster than I can believe and I’ll be home before y'all know it!

Much Love
