Monday, October 9, 2017


Hi Everyone!

What a crazy and fast week! A lot of things happened, but first off, my companion has changed and I am not with my Vegas buddy anymore! He was so awesome and I’ll miss him, but I know I will see him a lot in my mission! Haha! I am still waiting on my companion because he is traveling from pretty far away. He is a gringo and was in the choir with me so it will be fun! We are going to sing a ton!

This last week, my companion and I bought an oven and let’s just say that we love cooking! We cooked some super good food (I mean for being missionary food) and I hope you don’t get jealous of the pictures! Haha!

In other news, we had a meeting with our Stake and our Mission President was there. We were to just listen and speak, representing, for our Zone. The meeting lasted until 9:50PM, so we were all shaking in our boots to be home before 9PM, but our President was there. Haha! I say this because after my mission, I know it will be an adjustment to be out past 9PM! Haha!

As you may know, I hit the one year mark this last Thursday and I do not know where the time went! It is crazy looking back and seeing how much I’ve grown spiritually and as a missionary. This mission truly has been a blessing and I will forever be grateful for the blessings I have received and that are yet to come. I don’t have much time to write today, but I want to end with what I wrote in my journal exactly one year ago. After writing an experience I had in the MTC, I wrote, “I know this is exactly where I need to be. I love the missionary life, just not the Spanish. I can’t wait to speak fluently. Hasta manana, amo la vida misionera.”

I promise and still know this is where I need to be! I also have improved my Spanish just a little. Haha! I still and will always love missionary work. I hope you have a wonderful week and know that you are always in my thoughts and prayers.

Love Always,

Elder Sorenson

*Hello Sister. Today we celebrated the birthday of Elder Beltran and ate tacos. We also celebrate the independence of our city is a holiday. This was awesome. Your son ate 8 tacos. They (the Elders) could not breathe (because they ate) so much food. They are crazy!
