Elder Brady's Motto

"I have desired that while serving a mission that I am to do God's will, not mine. If it is the will of God that I should spend my days proclaiming this Gospel and bearing testimony of these things, I shall think of myself highly privileged and honored. When the spirit of God is upon me, I think it matters very little what I suffer, and what I sacrificed - whether I secure the honor or dishonor of men, or where I die, if it so be that I can keep the faith, fight the good fight, and finish my course with joy, I have all eternity before me in which to enjoy myself."

Granada Hills


Hiya! So this week has been super busy for Elder Johnson and I! We got the GPS and it is so helpful thank you!!! We made some trips up to Santa Clarita for ZLC, and i am really starting to like those! It was so much fun to see all the other zone leaders serving around the mission! Kunz goes home in 2 weeks! Dang!!! Same with my father, Elder Kennard! Crazy stuff... very sad. 
This week we set 2 more baptismal dates with a father and a son! December is looking like a great month for multiple baptisms so we are lovin life right now! Elder Johnson and I are really kicking things off well, we are working hard and having tons of fun! We had companionship exchanges with the Elders in Northridge YSA ward this week that are covering the whole valley and we visited a referral up in Topanga/woodlin Hills area (aka the richest area in the mission) and that is such a nice area! As we were driving up through the hills this elder i was with took me to the top where you could see the whole valley and then you turn around and you could see downtown L.A. off in the distance and the Beach/Ocean! It was crazy to see how close we really are to all that stuff! Oh haha and come to think of it, on that JPS, it listed a previous search of Anaheim (Aka Disneyland!) as only 30 miles away! Our zone is awesome. We trained them last Friday and it's a whole lot easier keeping a group of 12 under control rather than 22! We have also been having a lot of fun and we have been bringing basketball games here every Monday for those who want to play, and it's becoming tradition now! Elder Johnson is... you guessed it, my best friend. Just like the past 5 companions of mine have been. We have so much in common too it's crazy! He played football as well loves Michael Jordan apparel! We even both have Mosiah 2:17 as our missionary plaque! It's hilarious how much we have in common but i will just leave it at that for now. :) 
Sorry we've been super busy today and i proposed the idea of making zone shirts and everyone is super excited so we'll probably be doing that here as well. So we got to go now! 
I love you all! Have a great day! Talk to you again in a couple minutes! (1 week in missionary time:) 
Love, Elder Brady
no regrets
