Feliz Navidad a todos!!

Spiritual thought 

11 And he shall go forth, suffering pains and afflictions and temptations of every kind; and this that the word might be fulfilled which saith he will take upon him the pains and the sicknesses of his people.

12 And he will take upon him death, that he may loose the bands of death which bind his people; and he will take upon him their infirmities, that his bowels may be filled with mercy, according to the flesh, that he may know according to the flesh how to succor his people according to their infirmities.

Alma 7:11-12
Without Christmas we never could've been saved of our countless sins and afflictions from the infinite Atonement of our everlasting Savior. He is the light and the life of the world, he is the Alpha and Omega and the Prince of Peace. He has the power to save you from your sins!

Missing the cousins and extended family around this Christmas time, we've got some fire traditions. But makes it worth because I know that I'm serving the one and only true living God.

Thus far this week:
- Marshmallows in Spanish are called "nubes de azucar" or sugarclouds, FIGURE IT OUT ENGLISH, sugarcoat makes way more sense!! And it's just straight up fire.
- We were the highest baptizing missionin south America in the month of November!💪
- Spent the night until 12 at a members house for Christmas, it was pretty much a disco party, didn't enjoy too much. Christmas is way different here.
- Had 15 assistencias in church! What a miracle!

Till next time,
Elder Frazier🎄

Longest week of my life

Now, I don't want you all to get the title wrong. This week was also one of the best weeks of my life, but I did so much, worked like 12 hours a day  6:30-10:30  exactly every day. So it was like I would end a day and be so surprised I'd gotten that much done in 24 hours (but to be fair I also wake up every morning like I've been hit by a bus). But first, SPIRITUAL THOUGHT!!! Something my AMAZING HEAVEN-SENT mission President said " I’m so grateful for you. You are learning that when we do the right thing, even when we are tired or don’t feel like it, the Lord consecrates our efforts and gives us energy and strength. The oath and covenant of the priesthood in section 84, verses 33 through 44, teaches us that our bodies will be renewed by the Spirit as we magnify our callings. Keep up the great work!" HOW COOL IS THAT!! ESPECIALLY FOR YOU ELDERS OUT THERE! The verses say " For whoso is faithful unto the obtaining these two priesthoods of which I have spoken, a...

This week we saw 4 baptisms here in Delta del Tigre!!!! 🐯 It frickin amazing the ways in which the Lord blesses us when we choose to be humble and obedient, and thats what I want to talk about today in my... SPIRITUAL THOUGHT!! Jeffrey R. Holland died this week and he was my favorite apostle because he always cut to the chase and was an amazing teacher. And left me feeling humbled. That's so important, because when we understand how much we have to go and how imperfect we are at getting there we are more open to the help of the Lord and he is ALWAYS, i repeat, ALWAYS there to help us. So we can fulfill the measure of our existence and our purpose here on earth if we just LISTEN AND REPENT. If we change. If we grow. If we give in to the enticings of the Spirit. We will make it, but only thank to him. 19 And now, my beloved brethren, after ye have gotten into this strait and narrow path, I would ask if all is done? Behold, I say unto you, Nay; for ye have not come thus far save it w...

Week 1

I'm going to caveat this whole email by saying I'm outside on the street voice to texting this because the Wi-Fi is out in my house. Week one of Home MTC and week two of Mexico MTC have been amazing and eye-opening! Home MTC was rough with  7 to 9 hours  of Zoom a day I'll just leave it at that. Because I'm not typing I'm going to keep this short. Week two of Mexico MTC or CCM has been spiritually strengthening and super fun at the same time. The old school nickname stuck of "Fraz" but has evolved to "Freaky Friday Fraz" which is an interesting one to say the least. The views and weather here are wonderful, almlst better than newport ( nobody jump me for that comment). On Thursday we promptly made a teacher give us an hour and a half lecture on being respectful and not talking in class. On Friday we had red hairy chicken (it's exactly what it sounds like). On Saturday we became pickleball senses. On Sunday I felt the most fear I've ever f...
