Yoooo Hello my unimaginably gorgeous email readers. This is gonna be a good one. We prayed for no idleness and man did the lord provide. To start off the beginning of this week it was a consistent 70mph wind with gusts of 90's it was so epic and nothing I have ever felt. Ha. We would be driving at night and bursts would hit the car and instantly push it into the other lane, which doesn't really matter cause there are like 3 other cars on the roads but it was funny. We also had zone conference and interviews…. Man we are pretty much just outcasts here in Montana haha we have no clue what's going on with the mission and do our own thing. Which is how we like it๐! But this week has been pretty drippin we do a lot of ranch work which was apparently a problem at one point of Montana culture taking over where that's all missionaries would do and not teach. But we are doing it right. We dug an endless row of fencing but it was 8 and a half feet railroad ties which we dug a bunch of 2 and half feet deep holes in the frozen rocky ground with shovels for and put about 50 posts in for the guy. It was fun and particularly the ranch work makes me feel worthy of wearing my boots ha. Don't ask how but we ended up in a prespetarien church. That was the funniest thing I have ever seen in my life. The preacher pulls up some guy from the audience and is all jumpy and wiggling all over the place and goes "today we have a catholic that wants the hoooollly ghooost" proceeds to slap him in the face and goes "be hit with the spirit" guy literally goes limp and falls on the ground, meanwhile we are pretty much at a rave but people are flopping all over the ground and chairs. ๐ then this like security guard guy pulls the catholic off the ground and lifts him up and the preacher goes " LET THE GIFT OF TONGUES FLOW THROUGH YOU" guy getting held up in a trust fall position and goes "blub blub blub lapalapalapalpa brrrrr at ta ta ta" and then to make it even better the security guard you can clearly see looks down at the guy while he is rambling and looks back up and rolls his eyes. Then these people just stand up re tuck in shirts and walk out like nothing happened. It was a highlight of the mission for sure. Other than that I can't think of anything I wanna talk about off the top of my head. We are staying warm because the oven is a great heater. And sometimes we have 6 missionaries in our apartment so that's always a party. But from my experience last week I shared with you I have been doing lots of research and my bishop here is a very well versed man who I could listen to talk all day. We talked a bit and imma rant some nutz stuff so excuse my ignorance if you already know what imma about to talk about but man is this not the most crazy stuff to think about. Also if you are not a member if you read this please know this is deep doctrine and we are not insane.
I have been wondering the difference between angles and spirits and found some cool stuff.
Before I start, do not seek after the presence of angles because Satan is very smart and can appear as per say a resurrected being, of spirit directing you to go "Oh I can feel the spirit stronger when I don't go to church" and go down that path, so remember we seek after our Father in Heaven and our savior Jesus Christ and can receive the presence of angels BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST. And feeling the holy ghost is different then the presence of angels in your life. But that's another conversation. Any ways you know you can tell the difference between a good spirit, bad spirit, and a resurrected spirit by shaking hands. For those that ain't familiar with this. If you go to shake his hand and he does and you can feel it. Then it is a resurrected being. If you go to shake his hand and it denies you but still shares the message then it is a good spirit. If they insist on shaking your hand and they have to due to deals made up above and you can't feel them, they are a bad spirit. And a lot of people argue that Joseph Smith isn't a true prophet because there is no record of Joseph Smith shaking angel Moroni's hand. But Joseph Smith didn't know this at the time. Anyways this leads to the fact that not all of our dead relatives are in the sprint world. We see people like John that have been resurrected already. A Lot of people think that you can't be resurrected until the 2nd coming but that's not true. We don't know how you make that jump from spirit paradise into resurrection but believe that there is a particular reason for it.. And did you guys know some of us could have hit exaltation and told God, "yo send me back out. I will hasten your work." Just think about that. So we were at a member's house that lives alone, his dad was a bishop and had passed away. He said that last night at 2:46 in the AM he heard a noise so he got up and his dogs were low growling. He turned on all the lights and saw his desk shake in the corner and then it went silent. This desk had a flag his dad gave him and his ashes on it. He later found out the flag was moved off of the wall and the dusty desk had a handprint on it bigger than his, matching his dads. Man did it give us all chills when we saw it.. and this is completely possible that he was visited by his dad and he believed he was telling him something but I can't remember what it was. Which means his dad had to have been resurrected to move something physically because bad or good spirits don't have a body of flesh and bone so they can only appear in the shape of one which is why if you ever test to shake the hand of one and you just squeeze through his hand you best be ready to square up your arm and cast him out of your presence. Because you know Satan has 1/3rd of us and more lost souls after death which hang around worldly desires which is why crack houses etc… can house possessed people and so forth and no not just a crack head I mean really possessed cause it is TRUE. I have so much more to say but I really want you guys to read it so imma stop there but you know Cain (one of Adam and eve's children) where I Believe he is what people believe is bigfoot. He was cursed with dark skin and lots of hair. And he was cursed to put simply ,never die… well according to this account which no doubt is true because why would a prophet write it down… hahaha I'll save this for another day. But man I hope I don't have to experience anything scary relating to this in my life. But you never think to dive deep into the Bible and stuff until you serve a mission in the states. And everything else and so much more I wish I could say rn about pre and post earth life it is so so so crazy. And then you go into people who died before 8 years old going straight to celestial kingdom but everyone was basically told. "Look if I keep you alive after the age of 8 you are going to have to go through hell on earth, and some people were so elect before this life they didn't need to be tried on this earth but needed a physical body, so they come down and die super young. There is so much stuff it's crazy what you can find from the word of God. Haha anyways I hope you enjoyed some of the brief topics I think are so fascinating. I'll see y'all next week. Stay strong my kings, and frolicking flamingos.

Side note - Sorry this email is so late I thought I wouldn't be able to send one for a second there. Got stranded outside for like 6 hours in the middle of nowhere but that's a story for another time.
