But before I leave, I want to share with ya'll how my time in Denton finished up.

Funny

Free Slurpie Day at 7-11! Oh YAAAAAA

Mine was sugar free and guilt free. 

Mom has a "Missionary Counter" app. on her phone.
We are almost half way. I can't believe how fast it is going! 

Now... for the highlight of my time in Denton, Texas!

 This is wonderful Sister Ortega July 18, 2015. She is such an amazing daughter of God. What an honor it was to share that very special day with her and her family. 

Well you know, it's me remember. So much fun. 

What an amazing day!!!

This is one person I will always remember. Thank you Sister Ortega for changing my life and helping
 me to be a better Missionary and person. 

Here are just a few more wonderful people that I will miss very much. But I know that they are in good hands when I leave. 

Cant forget the Tryons

Hermano Arteaga, this dude is funny!

Sister Stasser, mamma Strasser, she gave me transsfer cookies, I love this lady, this is Hermano Perry's daughter.

This young man has bee investigating the church for two years.
He is awesome. 

Hermano Saldana is the funniest guy and has one of the strongest testimonies of
this church I have ever seen, he changes my life every time he gives us a ride.

Hermano Fernandez, he does amazing woodwork. 

Little Sam Strasser

Awesome guy!

This is the next one to gert baptized, he has already read half of the book of mormon

President Pratt

A few More "lasts"

                                                           My Last P-Day in Denton

This was my last night with Sister Ortega and family. 

This was my last night with Elder Langi. I will miss this companion so much! We will always be brothers in the mission!


These two Elders have had such an impact in my life, we will ALWAYS be brothers, eternally connected through our service to God! 

As much as it is breaking my heart to leave Denton, I will go where the Lord wants me to go. So off to Mexia, Texas with my new companion Elder Lopez. I have been called as District Leader in Mexia! I am so excited and nervous! This will be great.

Hello from Denton Texas Everyone

Elder Lickiss

Hi everyone, this is my address just in case anyone wants it.  I am staying in Denton, woot, woot! I LOVE Denton! This is by far my favorite Ward and I don't want to leave it. Its pretty rocking, members are so chill. When I get home I will take care of the missionaries like I was taken care of. I think a lot of people who have missionaries out right now want to take care of us hoping that their missionary will be blessed the same way, I hope so too. So I am staying and Elder Langi is staying for transfers so no changes, woot woot.

Elder Lickiss waiting very intently in line to go into the iPad training.

The iPad training was amazing, all day I was thinking about your birthday and I really did celebreate it with you because I had a blast. The best training I have ever had in my misison was for these ipads,  and it wasn't even because we were getting iPads, the speakers really just showed me how I can be a better missionary and
use my talents as well.

So here it is...the legendary iPads!!!!

Zone Conference. Elder Lickiss is sitting in the bottom row, second from the right wearing his wonderful orange tie.

I love when the do the funny pictures!

Man I miss this face!!!!!

This is Brother and Sister Perry, two of Elder Lickiss' favorite people. We had the pleasure of meeting them about a month back when they came to visit their daughter here in Utah. I know why he loves them so much, they are wonderful and  loving people. What a treat for us to meet them.

This sweet baby belongs to one of the Ward members. Elder Lickiss sure has fallen in love with this little cutie.
He sure misses his furry family member too. 

Just another day in the life of a missionary. Saving a few dollars on a hair cut.
From what I hear Elder Tulaga is a pretty good barber

Emailing Moms on P-Day!!!!

Having fun at the Apogee Stadium with his companion Elder Langi.

Super fun investigator family.

Selfie from the doctors office of all places. Funny boy of mine!

Our forth was spent fasting. BUT the next day when we broke the fast we broke it with ice cream cookies, pecan butter Dreyer's ice cream and little chips ahhoy cookies, it was delicious!! I got a little Amercian flag as well, and an ice cream brownie, that was our celebreation!!!

Says it all really. 

Best P-Day Eve

Missionary work advances to a whole new level with i-Pads! 

I am going to try doing my weekly letter like this. I am not sure if it will work because I might not have access to wifi the rest of pday and I don't want to risk not sending it, so it's a trial and error thing I guess. Right now we are in JCPenney looking for shirts for Elder Espinoza. He is going home this week! I can't believe it, he can't believe it. It's weird to think that that will be me someday. So this week obliviously has changed because we amused iPads. Man I didn't forget anything, my fingers took about 5 seconds to get used to the iPad again. It honestly wasn't as big of a change as I thought it was going to be really. We just moved right into it like nothing, we should be able to use Facebook soon, I'm thinking before the end of the month. I already used the iPad so much at home for tools that I am really just adapting it to missionary life. But...P-Days are super fun with the i-Pads too...

It is awesome!!!

Alright so I have to tell you right now, you will get the video, (down below) it's pretty funny. The sister bought me a balloon, I'm don't know why, but they did and I poked a little hole and sucked the helium out and said some funny lines. I said people's names, I said a tongue twister, and also a line in Spanish. When you get the video I said "hoy vamos a almorzar, pero se me acabó de dinero. Espero que reciba yo mas dinero este semana. Que tenga buena de mi Familia" which means "today we are going to eat lunch, but I ran out of money. I hope I get more money this week. Have a good week my family" I'm not actually going to run out of money I just wanted to say something really fast. This is just some fun stuff we do. I really want to have fun in my mission while always remembering my purpose as a missionary. This is pretty fun. This week I have made it my goal to have some more fun, with members, investigators, missionary's, everyone.
So you already know the details of my week, I gave you some more experiences here. My testimony, my scriptures are written in the physical letter. Thank you again for the delicious boxes, I will eat the, all up, I will never go hungry. Let's all set a goal to have some more fun this week. Ps: happy summer and happy birthday Charles. Everyone enjoy their summer and the week. We are all going to have fun together. I love you more than air!
This is the balloon that I ate!

Elder Lickiss wanted to make sure that he sent a special message home for Charles' 13th birthday.  

Elder Lickiss and Elder Langi

This is the Bishop of the Spanish Ward and his family! 

They are really fun and good sports. 

Elder Lickiss and Elder Langi stopped by the Bishops house and of course they feed them before they head back out. 

Watermelon, Elder Lickiss' FAVORITE! 

I love getting these wonderful surprise pictures! 

More P-Day fun at the bowling alley. 

Elder Lickiss is the bottom score.

Perfecting a bowling technique.
