Week 13 Merry Christmas!





 Logan.barker@missionary.org

Hey Guys, I hope you had a great week. My week was the same old, same old, so I'll just talk about a couple of cool stuff I guess. Most of our member lessons were showing them the Christ Child video. Every time we showed it, it always brought the spirit. Most of the time it also consisted of sisters crying, but hey it just means they feel it. So it was really cool to see, how a video about the birth of our Savior could affect people so deeply. Also this week was exchanges with our zone leaders. I was with Elder Miller up in Jefferson. It was so awesome, he is trying his best to be a consecrated (obedient, hard-working, giving his all to the Lord) missionary, and I want to as well. He made a goal to find a new person every day for the rest of his mission. So we taught a lesson and tracted. Also we ended up finding someone new at the end of the day so that was pretty sweet. Then on Friday we had our ward Christmas party. It was pretty fun. We got an investigator to come and they had a great time. For the play they had, some people were sick so Elder Martin and I got to step in. I was the innkeeper, and Elder Martin was Joseph. Overall it was a blast and I got to meet Santa so that was pretty awesome. Lastly to end the week, we were able to put Treva on date. It was such a cool experience to be able to see her making a choice to come closer to her Heavenly Father. Anyway this week was a pretty great week, I can't believe Christmas is next week! I love to hear from guys, so please reach out and tell me how your Christmas season is going. I wish you all a merry Christmas, and encourage you all to give a gift to your Savior this season. I miss you all and hope you have a great next week.

Week 6 Happy Halloween

  This week was awesome! Not much rain surprisingly but it was still fun. My week started with p day of course, and like last week we played ball the whole day, I'm still bad. The week started with exchanges. It was super fun, and cool to be able to learn from my ZL. The cool part about it is he is from my stake back home in Arizona. Anyway during the exchange we taught a super cool guy named Rusty. We taught him the Restoration, and had a good lesson. Overall the exchange was fun, and I learned a lot. The next day was zone conference. Zone conference is basically a time for us to get trained by our mission president, the tech specs, and the APs. Is was such an awesome experience, and I definitely felt the spirit. We talked a lot about the Restoration and the Book of Mormon. Also we had PMG trivia, and me and my comp won one round and got prizes. After that Thursday and Saturday were pretty much the same old same old. Bike or drive around. Go visit people, teach some lessons, tract...

Week 102 Mission Update

 Week 102 Mission Update 9/2/2024 Hey guys I figured I should write an email, seeing as I only have one month left. Last time I wrote I was in Brownsville and I had Elder Lash as my companion. Since then transfers have happened...and alot since that.  The rest of my transfer with Elder Lash was good we worked hard and saw the hand of the Lord in our work. We were able to share the restored gospel with lots of people, but whether they act on it or not is up to them. We had lots of fun P days and I got to live with one of my past companions for his last transfer. One P day we went to this place called blue pool it was crazy but good. We have been teaching some cool people and helping them come closer to their Savior. Paul is still on track to getting dunked which is hype.  Then I got transfer calls and I am staying in Brownsville for my last transfer. I am getting a new companion named Elder Palmer. Me and him had a blast. We worked hard and experienced alot....

Elder Barker - First Week!

Image
 Logan was set apart as a full time missionary last Sunday September 18, 2022 by our Stake President in our home. It was a very special and spiritual experience. Our home has definitely benefited from the Spirit that accompanies a full time missionary. Home MTC is wonderful and a blessing to missionary and family. Here is his first letter: First Week! Hello, This first week has been great! It has taken a while to get used to the missionary standards, but I'm getting there. I was able to meet my companion and district on Monday. My companion is so awesome and we get along great. My district is also awesome, and super fun. You know home MTC has its perks, like getting to spend lots of time with my family, before I head our for 2 years, but 7 hours of zoom every day gets pretty tiring. Luckily the Lord is helping me every step of the way. The classes we have are super fun and entertaining. It is so cool to learn more about being a missionary and the gospel of Jesus Christ. The wa...
