Week 45 - Happy Early Pioneer Day!

Howdy folks!

It's interesting to see my life, and my mission in particular, kind of go in phases. In some areas I've served, I focus a lot on visiting and strengthening members of the church. In others, we focus a lot on helping the other missionaries. Here in Weiser, we're doing the good old nitty gritty missionary work! We walk the streets and talk to everybody and it feels good! We did some walking last night and met a bunch of new people! And we only got sworn at once! Elders Nicholas and Washburn are great companions, and I can tell this is going to end up being one of my favorite areas in my mission. 

In district meeting and throughout the week, we've talked a lot about the roles and gifts of the Holy Ghost, or Holy Spirit. It's so important that God has a way to speak to our hearts and minds, and I testify that if we listen to those thoughts and feelings, we'll be happier. We'll be more successful. And we'll be more of what God wants us to be. I've also really enjoyed studying the Holy Ghost's role as a sanctifier, and would invite anybody to do some studying on that subject as well. 

Sorry this email is short! Love you all!

Sincerely,
Elder Doyle


Blessed to serve with such awesome guys!




This is my new ride! Haha jk! But I'm totally taking him up on his offer to go dune bugging in it after my mission!
