I became a spiritual drug dealer not clickbait!!!!!

 This week has been long and short at the same time. Friday through Saturday I had online MTC and spent the days sitting in online class and spending time with family.


On Sunday I went to church and I had invited some friends to come and learn more about what I was doing for the next two years I enjoyed spending time with them and answering their questions. On Monday I finished online MTC and packing. Tuesday I said goodbye to my dad and my siblings and took my flight to Utah with my mother.


We were able to go through the Layton temple which was awesome experience






then we went out to dinner with my best friends in Utah.


      Wednesday was the big day. I spent the morning getting breakfast with my grandparents



then we drove to Provo and I bought matching ties for me and my comps. At 1:30 I got dropped off and said goodbye to my mom.



Once I got to my room only one of my comps was there because Elder Waite got lost at the airport but he eventually made it. We had an amazing devotional about the Savior Jesus Christ and the power He has in our lives.






The chocolate milk here is fire and the food is OK. 






Godspeed,
Elder "Spiritual drug dealer" Thomson

I teach the gospel to a goat (not clickbait!!!)

Hey y’all I hope everyone is doing well. This week has been a little different once again. (Pictures from Tuesday:) To be honest, not much happened on Wednesday, but we did a lot of tracting because we didn't have a lot of lessons planned and we found 8 new people and had a great dinner. Then we came back to our house to clean because we had apartment inspections the next day. We wanted to make sure everything was clean before they came. Not much happened on Thursday, but Friday was my first ever exchange with the zone leaders. I had a really good time learning new things from them because they're really good missionaries. I got to meet a lot of new interesting people, including someone who tried to use star trek to disprove Jesus Christ. I learned a lot from the ZL'S. They taught me great ways to connect with people when you first meet them and how to be more confident in doing the work. Saturday, we had an amazing lesson where we got to teach about the history an...

I leave spiritual boot camp not clickbait!!!!

  What's up, y'all? I hope everything's going well. (Keep scrolling, text and pictures mixed!) Things are going okay for me out here. My last email left me off at the MTC with a couple days left. My last couple days at the MTC were pretty good. Went to the gym, went to my classes and hung out with my MTC district. They are all amazing people that I love and I'm so sad that I don't get to hang out with them every day like I used to.  And of course we had everyone's favorite, general conference which as a missionary is one of the most spiritual impact full things you can do. They had amazing topics.I especially liked the Elder Cook's talk when he talked about the Casper temple here in Wyoming.  On Saturday, in the afternoon between sessions of the general conference, the cafeteria was serving steaks. I got challenged to eat as many as possible. I managed to eat 5 of them, which was a terrible decision because they were all terrible. Sunday was also amazing and...

I ride the range from Casper to Cheyenne (not clickbait)!!!

I'm sorry y'all but email is going to be short and sweet because I for some reason decided to wait until the last minute. Wednesday was our zone meeting where we set our Mission baptisms goal of 100 baptisms!! Which is crazy but Elder Gong of the 12 Apostles promised we would hit that goal which is pretty sweet. That night we drove down to Cheyenne and stayed with the Zone Leaders there. Thursday morning we woke up and went to missionary training so I was able to see Elder Waite and Sheridan and got some awesome training from the mission president and the APs and then drove back to Casper and did some missionary work. Friday was super fun. I got my first on date for baptisms. We stood outside the halfway house and talked to people until the prison guard told us we had to leave which was kind of funny. Saturday was good it started off doing missionary work. That night was Stake Conference so I got to hang out with other missionaries and after the President and his wife...
