Pictures from District Interviews :)







My last interview: signs of the time!

 dear family and friends,
 so this week was a fun week not too much happened but it was a lot of fun. so on Tuesday I had my exit interview with President Gardner was kind of weird because 1 it was my last interview with President Gardner and 2 because I don't go home for another month. but it was a great interview! and we got a lot of fun pictures at interviews. we also got to see that APs, so it's really good to see elder moore and be able to talk to him and catch up.  and then on the Wednesday we had team up with Logan Warner and it was a ton of fun we got to see Tabetha she's doing pretty well and she has been reading everyday which is really cool and she said that she's feeling a lot of peace and she's been feeling happier because she's been doing it so that's just really awesome we're going to keep working with her and we're really excited for her. and we also and had a lot of fun going around with Logan he's a really funny kid and he is prepared to go on his mission soon. then Thursday it was just a weird day for me I just was not feeling well for some odd reason I don't know why but we just went out finding in and just start talking to people and I just start feeling a lot better I was just really cool to to see the Lord strengthen me through that day. and then on Friday we had a really good lesson with Jackie we taught the plan of salvation and she really loves us and love talking to us and she reads the book Mormon daily so it's been really cool to see her progress  and he could tell she really loved the plan of salvation because of the promise that we have that our families can be together forever she really enjoyed that part. we also had a really great dinner with Bishop Perry and his family. It seems like they really love us and trust us it's awesome. and Saturday was a lot of fun we went down to Red Cloud and finally got to teach Cassidy ray and we taught her the plan of salvation she doesn't know she wants to be baptized she still really wants to come to church cuz your husband's a member and she's already decided that she wants her unborn child to be baptized in our church but just kind of weird but she's still praying about it and so I think soon she'll know she wants to be baptized. But she's doing good she's going to come to church next week so we're really excited for that. And then we went to the Nebraska Kansas border and had a lot of fun taking a ton of pictures down there. on Sunday we went to church had a lot of fun there we had 6 investigators at church so that was awesome we also had dinner at brother woodwards and we played a bunch of games and swung on the swing. but yeah that was our week we have a lot of fun. and I just want to thank you all for all the support that I've been receiving throughout my mission it's really helped me through at the tough times and and also the good times and I just want to say that I'm so grateful to be a out on the mission to share that drove the Smith is a profit and that Jesus Christ gospel is restored on the again and that we can receive the fullest of that through the book Mormon it's been great to do this well I love you all let me know how your weeks been loved I just want to say that I'm so grateful to be out out on a mission to share that drove the Smith is a profit and that Jesus Christ gospel is restored on the earth again and that we can receive the fullest of that through the book Mormon it's been great to do this well I love you all let me know how your week been?

The Lord is Hastening Hastings

 dear family and friends
 this week was a great week we have been doing amazing in Hastings! so this week we found 10 new investigators!! but the start of the week was kind of sad because Lance one of Our investigator set for baptism dropped us because he wanted to be baptized on the 16th of June or not be baptized at all and he wasn't going to quit smoking. so we told him that he can't be baptized on the 16th and he got really offended and said he didn't want to meet with us anymore. But I know it's on the Lord's timing and that he will eventually come on to Christ. his heart needs to change in it was just really hard on me at first but I kept on going with faith. It was really cool that after that I just kept working hard and we got 10 new investigators this week is just so amazing to have these miracles happened Even after that hard experience.
and here are some of the miracles that we saw this week so on Tuesday we have car fast days and right before we ended our car fast we decide to knock on this house that was turned into apartment and I had the prompting  to knock on the last door first and so we did that and the 16-year-old kid named Sebastian Let us in and we answer a lot of his questions about God and different stuff and he loved it he really love that we believe that heavenly father and Jesus Christ are two separate beings because it just made so much more sense to him and we set him for baptism on July 7th and he said he'd love to read the book of Mormon and continue to work with us. and so that was really cool we also had a sweet miracle with Judith she was a former investigator top by the missionaries about 3 years ago and she just didn't feel comfortable with being baptized and really know the reasons why but now she knows it's all true and really wants to be baptized so we set her for July 7th also but we were thinking about it and thinking that we should set her for June 30th because it seems like she would be prepared for that day. 
And there are a lot more miracles that happened this week but I wanted to share this next one. so it started on Thursday night we were going finding and we knocked on the door and this guy slammed it in her face but we are completely fine we kept on going and then the next day we are walking by going to try a potential  and he stopped and apologizes for being so rude and we start talking to him by the way his name is Justin and we started talking to him and we taught him the restoration and they really liked it and we thought to his needs  and he said we could come back and that he would read the Book of Mormon and he would really try to learn more and so was really cool talk to him and his girlfriend and there's just a cool thing to see Heavenly Father change the hearts of people in Hastings
 so that's just all the miracles that happened this week.
 but this week was just a lot of fun we had district meeting and it was really good hand really fun all about helping our investigators keep commitments and
we also had dinner with brother Brown and that was lots of fun. we also had dinner with the Warner's and I love brother Warner he's so funny. and we went finding on Sunday night and we just found so many potential and investigators are just crazy it's just amazing to see how the Lord is working with these people and preparing them to hear the gospel. well, that was my week sorry if it sounded a little jumbled but it was just a rollercoaster of emotions but it ended amazingly. And I just want to say that I know this church is true that Joseph Smith was a prophet and that the Book of Mormon will change your life if we read it every day. 
 and I know that the spirit guides this every day and the spirit has guided me every day this week in this just been awesome to see that. so let me know how the spirit has guided you this week? 
well I love you all

The Trinity is going to "kill" me LOL

 dear family and friends,
 so it's official I'm in my last transfer in my mission. :-( and this week has been really good so we got two new investigators this week. and now we are in a trio! so elder Birkeland  is the third wheel of our group. and he is from Boise Idaho and his dad is Mormon famous. His dad was in the RM and also home teachers and the singles ward.  elder Birkeland









says he is the chubby white guy with blonde hair.  and I also found out he knows my old priest quorum advisor Billy light so that's really sweet. and so this transfer our mission has a goal of getting 50 baptism the new really excited for that and be able to get that goal and then we've also made a goal and we have a code name for it it's called Hastening Hastings case and with that we are trying to get 3 baptism this transfer and also try to help the ward be more helpful and missionary work we also have a funny unity sign between us 3 and we call it comp Trinity, instead of comp unity. and then this week we met with Lance Ryan at ton and set him for baptism on June 16th he's doing really well he's reading the Book of Mormon and he is starting to quit smoking.  so he definitely needs your prayers.
 we also saw Tabitha Bradford and her cousin And we taught her the plan salvation and it went really well.  and what was really cool is still on Friday night I was praying I wanted to be guided by the spirit and I was thinking about Tabitha know what we should do and asked heavenly father when we should see Tabitha and and I felt like we should see her on Saturday at 3 p.m. and so I wrote it down and then we planned it and we actually saw her literally but they said what they couldn't meet with us so they said they'll be at the park and so we went finding and then we just like us just go at the park and we start walking there she's down there right at 3 p.m. and so that was just a really cool miracle that we had about how the house the Lord answers prayers. and so it's been really fun being in a trio and and we just had a lot of fun it's like having a sleepover every night. Well I hope you guys have a great week and let me know how your prayers been going and how you've been doing lately. I love you all!
 love elder Brewster
