Week 27: Staying put


Hey family! Happy father's day dad! Thanks for all that you do for me! And having patience with me cause my emails suck! I did get my birthday package and it was awesome! I'm so thankful:) the mesh garments are gonna save my life out here. We sweat buckets all day every day. I'll get the package mailed off to you guys at some point with dad's hat and a belt I got from the corvette museum.


On to the other big news! So my comp Elder Satterthwaite is getting transfered to Linden Tennessee to be a district leader there. And I am going to be training!!!! And so will my district leader Elder Ellison! We will go pick up our greenies tomorrow and that will be there first day. I'm a little nervous and stressed about training but mostly just excited. It's going to be a blast! I'm going to miss Elder Satterthwaite tho. Besides that my birthday was pretty good. The Hermanas serving here made me some cupcakes which was cool. Plus district meeting that day was way fun to.

The family reunion looked like it was a party as usual. Wish I could have been there but it's all good:)

Let's see, besides that our gators have been doing well but the work has slowed down a bit because everyone is sick. But I just discovered a ton of new appartment complexes so when I get the Green bean we are gonna go hard. I don't find out who it is until Thursday but I'm sure Sister Stone will post pictures on Insta. So that means ill probably be in Kentucky for at least two more transfers. So that will make 5.
You all are the best and I hope you have a great week!

Week 26: Worth the wait


Hey family:) sounds like you guys had a pretty good week as usual! 
 
Well here is the highlights since last p day. On Saturday we had our first baptism in the area, and the first one for me on my mission. Hanna entered the waters of baptism and the spirit was way strong. She has some autistic kids that made the baptism quite the party. But it was an amazing experience. Watching someone and helping them go through the whole teaching process and even get married was so cool. 

Yesterday we were doing some service for this Hispanic lady in our ward. Her name is lina, she doesn't speak to much English but helping her is always a party. This time we carried a massive entertainment center up the stairs of her unfinished house and put it in her upstairs. While we were carrying it up there, I literally stepped through the ceiling. ðŸ˜† I thought I was gonna fall through but I didn't. So that was good! 

Also we are teaching this lady named Cheri who is getting baptised on the 30th and she is so cool. Straight from Detroit, she's in her 70s and literally is like a mafia person🤘 she is just killing it in the lessons so far. Thanks for the package. I am excited to receive it, also on Sunday I'll probably find out if I'll be staying in this area or being transferred. Love you guys and I hope your all doing Well! See ya next week
