18th week but week 12 in the mission field

Welll this will be super short this week I love you all and you are all in my prayers. I am now finished with training and I will be staying here in Linardes. My new companion will be Elder Snow, I cant wait to work with him. He is an American I believe from Utah. I'm pumped because now I will have someone to help explain everything I don't know hahaha. Next weeks letter will be better, sorry we need to get going to get everything ready. All is well and keep praying.  God loves you keep pushing.
Love Elder Davis

Note From Mom: Elder Logan Davis did not send any pictures as his time was very very short. I have included pictures from last week meetings he had with Presidente McArthur and return to the CCM meeting at the Mission home. These pictures I found on the missions website.

Week 17 week 11 in the field

weekkk 11 and what a crazy one
well let’s start off. So, bam Saturday rolls around and we had a baptism planned for 1 boy that is 9 years old. His name is Octavio, he’s a good kid and is super into to learning all about the church. SO anyways most of Saturday we were getting ready for that and inviting people and everything. We got it all ready, baptism was at 7....7 rolls around no one shows up haha we were like o.k what’s going on so we called them they were just running late and on their way. So, people started showing up and the girls we baptized about 2 months came which was really awesome. Well with the sisters their mom and little brother who is 9 also came. We had been working with the little brother for the whole time I have been here so about 3 months. Well the mom hasn’t let him get baptized and didn’t want him to in the past. So, they get there Sergio asks and say that he wants to get baptized jokingly we were like its already let’s go right now. Then he was like oh ok I will asks my mom and BAMMMMM she says yesssss hahaha we were like ok let’s do this. We had a lot to do though and everything had to go our way or the Savior’s way more than ours. Well we had to call President McArthur, we got a hold of him he gave us the ok then we had to get an interview and bam he past hahaha. So, on Saturday we ended up having 2 baptisms which was so amazing. I feel my Saviors love,  I know he hears and answers our prayers.
 Read the Book of Mormon it will answer the questions you have as you read it with all your heart. Pray with all your heart your Father in Heaven is waiting for you. I do promise you that you well get an answer.
He lives and loves you. Have a safe week
 Love Elder Davis

16 Week Recap

Week 10 of Mission Field life   
Wellll wow where to begin. This week was a fun one to say the least. So, we went to Monterrey Wednesday night so we could be there on time for the meeting the next day. The meeting the next day was with Elder Pino of the Church Mexican area Presidency. Well anyways the night of Wednesday was crazy haha. We got in about 7ish and then went to the mission home around 8. Around 8:30ish 20 more missionaries showed up from other zones so we had a huge sleep over haha so much fun and wild. I also got to see some of my good friends from the CCM (mtc) and that was sweet. Well I had prayed a lot that I would be able to understand the whole meeting and get everything I needed to get out of it. Praying definitely works and oh how I have felt blessed. I ended up being able to understand like 95% of it haha. Prayer is amazing and I promise you all blessing will come if you do pray with all your heart. Besides that trip, we had a lot of work this week and stayed busy. We got 9 new investigators and then a couple progressing ones. It’s been hot lately and sweet comes easy haha. My Spanish has gotten a lot better lately and I don’t really know what’s going on because it’s like English and Spanish are both clashing to be my number one language I think it and dream it. I love it here though. It is tough, exhausting and all around crazy but I have learned so much that truly I could have not learned anywhere else. My love for these people here is crazy and I don’t know what I would do without them in my life. I feel our Saviors love for them and his love for all of you. You all are always in my prayers and I pray all is well. I love you all and miss you all. This has for sure become my home away from homes and it all feels normal now and the mission life is my life. I even have forgotten what life is back home I think haha. It also feels weird not to be in a white shirt and tie haha. All is well here and I wouldn’t trade anything. Always pray for our father is waiting for you to pray to him so he can bless you. I hope all is well. With love Elder Davis

15 week recap

 WHat is timeeeeee

Well this week was a good one. It was pretty normal and not much happened. Actually, crazy story, we had to go to Monte Moralos for a baptism interview, after while waiting for the bus a guy walks up to us. He starts talking to us and told us someone is sick in his family we told him that if he went to church tomorrow then we could come visit after because we had to catch a bus in 5 mins. Well Sunday rolls around and bam he’s sitting in church and comes up to us after sacrament meeting and tells us he wants to get baptized we were just like what this is awesome. So now we are having lessons with him and seeing where that goes. We have a baptism Saturday which will be another special moment where we can feel so much of the Savior’s love. Besides that, normal teaching and my companion was sick a couple days so that was a bummer. We also have kinda of lost our family we were teaching. It’s sad but they haven’t been there for our meetings the last 3 dates we set up. It been hard because I have so much love for them and they are such good people. The weather was crazy this week again. We got caught in 2 thunderstorms on 2 different days while riding our bikes away from the house haha.  So ya I got soaked a couple times but it was all fun. I love you all and I know you guys can do hard things. Keep pushing forward in and through our Savior’s love through all things. He loves you so much and I have felt his love for his children here. May God be with you this week and don’t forget to pray. Go to the temple if you can, go to church for you will be blessed in all things. I get to go to Monterrey this week for a meeting with a member of the church presidency of Mexico. I can’t wait to learn from the words that will fill my heart. Don’t forget to listen to the still small voice he will guide you in all. I love you all and tell next week stay safe. Love elder Davis

14 week recap

Well here I am again on a computer haha. I hope everyone is doing well and I pray you guys all had a great week. This week here in Mexico, it was pretty wild in the weather department haha. This morning it poured down rain for about 2 hrs. but 20 mins before that is was sunny. One day it was about 103 the next cold haha its awesome I love it. Besides that, work was normal and good. I have felt my Saviors help with Spanish, I studied super hard and have seen his hand in my life a lot. I invite you all to look for his hand in your life daily for it is there and you will find it. This week I did go on a sort of adventure, my companion is the district leader and they had a meeting in Monterrey this week so I went on exchanges with the other companion of the other district leader in my zone well I thought I was. So we rode a bus to Allende which is an hour and a half away and I meet up with him. I was then told I was going to work with a different Elder for the Next day. That Elders name was Elder Smith ha-ha. What fun it was to work with Elder Smith. He is from Utah and is about 9 months in the mission field, he is a stud and I love him so. He taught me so much and we had a great time together it was just amazing. Well after that I returned home to my area which I now miss when I leave haha its legit becomes home while on your mission. I was able to have a good rest of my week. Right now, we have a baptism lined up for June 10 and then we have 5 other progressing investigators that have touched my life. This week I invite you to have patience in all you do. Sometimes we want to go fast while others are going slow. Be loving towards them and help them because we first must understand how they are feeling to where they are at before we can get them to achieve what we want to show them the love and joy we feel.... also find your friends. I have felt this week our Saviors love for all these people here. They are all our brother and sisters and some don’t have the blessing of the gospel like us in the church do. Go find a friend and invite them and help them feel the love of Christ in their lives I do pray for your success in that. You are all so important to me all who read these emails I do love you and pray for you. I even love and pray for all those in the world. Our Father in Heaven loves you even more and how important you are to him. We all have a purpose and we all play a note in the song of the gospel. Everyone is needed and all are important. I ask that we all help find someone who might have lost their note and who might be lost and love them. Be strong and have faith, for miracles come from faith. I had faith I could speak Spanish and I ended up teaching a class at church yesterday for about 40 mins in Spanish and I don’t even remember what I said. He will help you when you ask in faith. I love you all and pray for you to stay strong and to feel my love. 
Till next week stay safe
Elder Davis


Note from Mom-
Elder Logan Davis has a best friend Elder Matthew Smith that is serving in the Dominican Republic on his mission, that is why he mention it was cool to serve with a Elder Smith although I'm sure he is a awesome too.

13 week email....3 months down wow

What up What up. Welll this week went by super-fast and that was crazy. It’s been hot here lately and when you must wear a suit sometimes that doesn’t end up very good with all the sweat hahaha. Well this week we were blessed so much by our Savior. We have prayed and prayed for help finding people to teach who are willing to progress and learn. This week we found a young girl 19 years old who has seen missionaries pass her house for a while but no one stopped to talk to her. Well we were impressed and stop and now she is progressing and is building her testimony. We also had a member find 2 families for us to teach and now our work has taken off. What a blessing it is to have members who work. I pray and ask all of you at home to help the missionaries out. It’s not easy for us hahah. It’s hard but I love it and I do promises you, as you do the lords work you will be blessed with many wonderful things. Pray, for I know Heavenly Father answers our prayers in love. Do not forget it will be in his own time and it will happen when it is needed. I love you all and keep up the work you are doing. I know our Savior loves you all as I do, he does love you all. I pray for health and the best for you all. Stay strong for life is hard filled with ups and downs that teach us, we are here to learn. Do your part and he will do his. In love, be safe this week and push forward, may peace be unto you as the Savior has so blessed us.
With love, Elder Davis

12 Week letter

6 Weeks in the field....What is time!!!!!


Wow how fast this journey has been so far. It has been filled with so much that I sometimes forget things haha. I have had my worst of times and the most difficult but also my best times in my life. How blessed I have been to be sent here and to be sent at this time. The field is ready and we all must work with the Lord and do his work that I testify brings nothing but happiness and joy. Well this week was another fast one filled with happiness. OH, AND I GOT TO TALK TO THE FAM YESTERDAYYYYYY.... So, amazing that we have technology that we have to day and how blessed we are that we can talk to loved one’s miles away. It filled my heart with joy seeing the family I have come to love with my heart, they are amazing and I’m so lucky to call them mine. But talking to them makes me want to work, it makes me want to spread the happiness that I have felt. We are lucky to be sealed for time and all eternity to the ones we love but others don’t know about that amazing blessing. So, this week I invite you to work at teaching others about families, spread the word and the happiness that comes with it. I promise you it will strengthen you as you share and his blessings will pour down around you and your families. I want you to all know I’m doing all I can and working until I’m about to fall over to share and do all things to bless others. They have blessed me more than I believe I have blessed them. I love them with my whole heart and they are my family and my heart has become all about them. Serve others because that’s what we have been sent to do. Don’t worry about yourself because there are others who are struggling that need each and every one of you. You are all special to me and our father in heaven. He loves you more then you know and I also love you all and only wish the best of thing on you all. May you look with light and love to our Heavenly Father’s children. They all deserve to feel special like you guys get the opportunity to feel. I pray you will be safe and don’t be prideful because that can ruin all things. It all comes from our father in heaven I testify of that. I love him and I love his children. I am his servant as I look to serve all with love. I am at your call and I will serve all you as best as I can.

BE STRONG AND SAFE with love Elder Davis
