Now according to the commandment of the Mission President we did go down to the building where those who are afflicted without homes do dwell.

Hey guys!

This week has been pretty fun. On Monday we had breakfast at President Anderson's house, one of the ones in the mission presidency. We went to Walmart and acquired a Christmas tree.

On Tuesday we had exchanges and half way through we got news that President Anderson would be conducting interviews over district council the next day so we decided to switch back early as to not be attending without suits. 

Wednesday was district council and we toured the Poverello center afterward which is one of the homeless shelters in Missoula. We were asked by the mission presidency to volunteer there Tuesday-Saturday over the next few weeks to get the missionaries out there serving. It was super cool, there were deer just chilling outside of our apartment. 

Saturday was our turn to volunteer so we went and served food for a bit. On our way back from dinner that day we felt prompted to go into a gas station and give the cashier a Book of Mormon. It was an amazing experience, where I felt the spirit probably the strongest I have ever felt it. I know that God knows and loves all of His children. 
That is pretty much my week.
Love y'all,
Elder Krebs

  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...

Home MTC Here We Come!

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...
