Elder Graham LaBass - Oaxaca Mexico Mission 2025-2027

  What's up guys, once again, another glorious p-day.... These things are starting to come super fast lol.  This week was great!! We are officially in some of the hottest weather of the year and santa vaca its hot.   I found green power-aid and this stuff is good. Perfect for fetching walking around in a FIRE. Too bad the tienda lady wasn't as cool and didnt wanna talk to us :( I went to 2 different areas this week on intercambios and one was with my absolute DAWG elder bird from the ccm. We had a lot of fun. And the other was with our zone leaders and all we did was play volleyball, soccer and help build a house lol. We have someone in teaching who wants to get baptized. When we first met Ezekiel he wasn't sure if God existed but now he's reading the scriptures and praying every night. The problem is that every Sunday SOMETHING happens and he doesn't come to church. Last sunday he got stung by a   and was in the hospital. We did a fast with him to hel...

 Bendiciones a todo, que dice la buena vida. Aqui estamos otra vez with yet another glorious p-day.       These past two weeks have been pretty crazy, we had transfers and a bunch of miracles with the people we are teaching!! CRAZY MIRACLE!!! There is a family who had been miembros for more than 18 years. Only problem is that the husband had been receiving the missionaries for 18 years but refused to get baptized. Thanks to thousands of small spiritual experiences and small pushes from family, friends, missionaries and members, Hermano Fulgencio was ready to receive his first covenant with God. This moment changed me completely as I saw a family who had been broken for so many years gather together in a group hug centered on God. Family is one of the key parts of God's plan. We are meant to be sealed together as a family to become the strongest spiritual unit, protected against the adversary and his fiery darts. Through our covenants with God, the family unit ca...

 Whats up guys, sun is burning, we working, and THE SURF IS PUMPIN        Super calm week not, too many highlights besides CONFERENCE WHICH WAS FIRE!!! (Every 6 months the leaders of the church give talks and dirección we believe to be directly from God for us)      Some members gave me a plant to take care of... for some reason.... cuz I have time for that... he is the cousin of the famous and probably long dead plant Cosmo.     This week was a little rough, we are working a lot but really no one is accepting the gospel enough to come to church but WE STILL GETTIN AT IT!!!!!       I found a super cool type of jet ski in some random person's house. This type is used to tow surfers into waves that are literally too big to surf normally, super sick!        It is now mango season!! There are just hundreds of free mangos that are like candy hanging on thousands of trees everywhere! Its so lit    ...

  WHATS UP GUYS,  How's it going, back at it again, puerto escondido, shaka-cada-fradashadamalakada  This week was crazy, I don't think we've ever devoted more time to finding people ever before lol. Every day we spent almost 6 hours to straight finding and we found like 5 people lol. SUUUUUPER grateful for that but... for Mexico that's kind of not a lot. But these 5 people all have crazy stories and are, at least on some level, searching for truth.  We ended up resorting to a game of chess and if we won, they had to listen. Ofc por el poder de dios ganamos, but they didn't want to listen still jajajajaja.  Super short email, but I would love to share this quote from an apostle of the lord, Jefferey R. Holland. We all go through hard things in life every freaking day. I'm not the first or the last to admit that it is exhausting. Weather it's pressure to preform, emotional confusion and trauma, or some other roadblock that makes and already difficult life, ha...
