Provo MTC Drop-off (Oct 1 - Oct 6, 2021)

We enjoyed a wonderful general conference weekend with Elder Krebs, listening to inspiring messages from our Church leaders.

Elder Krebs packed up his room and spent his last night at home on Tuesday, Oct 5:


On Wednesday morning we enjoyed breakfast at the Black Bear Diner:


And then enjoyed some time looking at the beautiful fall leaves at Rock Canyon Park in Provo:



It was then time to say goodbye, as we dropped Zach off at the Provo Missionary Training Center (MTC) where he'll be for the next 2 weeks as he continues to prepare for his assignment to serve in Billings Montana:




Elder Krebs was so excited to join his MTC district in person after having spent a lot of time with them on Zoom video conference calls during his week of at-home MTC.

Elder Krebs' preparation day is on Thursday, Oct 13 and we can't wait to receive our first email from him!

This week was quite an adjustment, getting used to not having Zach at home. However, it was also a time of great joy as we continued to have it reaffirmed in our hearts that he's exactly where the Lord needs him at this time in his life.

  Hi guys!  My week has been pretty fun and like last week it involved a lot of service. So here are some stories.  During fast & testimony meeting there was a primary kid who began to bear his testimony on every person in the ward...... individually. The whole congregation got a chuckle out of it when he said about his sister "I even love Rachel!"  Secondly on Tuesday we had district council along with some yummy, yummy pancakes! After that we were doing some Facebook finding in the stake center's family history center with the Zone Leaders. That's when the ZL's got a call from the AP's that we needed to submit some baptismal forms because as it turns out the companionship right before Elder Hansen came in had baptized someone but then both left like a week later and forgot to fill out the forms.  We went to an amazing burger place called Parker's they have 135 different burgers! If you are ever in Missoula it's well worth it.  We then went to a y...

Elder Zach Krebs spoke in Sacrament meeting last Sunday, gets set apart as a full-time missionary tomorrow, and starts the Home MTC on Monday! We're so excited for him and this amazing adventure he's about to start! Here's an excerpt from his sacrament talk on Sunday, September 19th: "We should be sharing the gospel in normal and natural ways. If we have a ward service project ask if they want to come participate. Although the news may not be showing all the good in the world, most people like to help. Or if they are the ones in need of service we have amazing people in the ward who love to help as well. And if you are feeling nervous remember these words from Alma 32:23: “And now, he imparteth his word by angels unto men, yea, not only men but women also. Now this is not all; little children do have words given unto them many times, which confound the wise and the learned.” We can be angels as well. We can all follow God’s will for who he will have us deliver his mess...

Hey guys it has been pretty crazy!       On Tuesday my companion and I split wood and then of course the people we were splitting wood for brought up politics something missionaries aren't supposed to talk about. We deflected it pretty good though.       On Wednesday we went up to a part of our area we can't go up to very often because of miles. We had lunch, shared a few lessons, we then went to their branch Halloween party. We were made judges in the chili cook off so my morning the next day was fun. Also, we had the trunk or treat there and a member came up to us as we were waiting for the trunk or treat to be over and handed us bags and told us to go trick or treating.     On Friday we went and helped some people move and that was pretty fun.      So back on Wednesday we had someone offer us tickets to the MSU game and we took one of the people we are teaching to count it as missionary work! The cool thi...
