"Being Quick to Observe"

Hello everyone!

       This week was so good! We learned a lot this week. One of the number one things I learned is what it means to be “quick to observe.” That’s how Mormon, in the Book of Mormon, describes one of his sons who he trusts a lot. We’ve thought a lot about that phrase and here are my thoughts on what it means and how it can apply to you!are you excited? Well hey you should be. 

         Being quick to observe means being open minded, eyed, and eared. It’s having an awareness of those around us. It’s looking into somebody’s eyes and seeing if they’re filled with joy or sadness. It’s seeing who’s outgoing, excited, and talking, and who’s not including themselves or being included. It’s seeing who’s sitting alone. It’s having eyes to see, and ears to hear, as Christ says. 

          Our mission president talks to us about this a lot. We’ve seen that you can learn so much about a person just by being quick to observe. So there’s that :) 
         Here are some pictures from the week! Love you all!

Elder Jaksina and I in Gainesville. It was raining. A lot. 

After zone conference with Elder Willets, my previous companion! I love him so much - grateful for good friends made from faithful service and sacrifice! 

Elder Ballard in Ocala! He is so good - he won state in Tennis where he lives in Arizona. He’s super super good! An even better missionary, though. And he speaks and teaches in Spanish! He can do it all.
