Week 16: Transfers

I'll just start off with the biggest news! I'm not going anywhere. I'll be staying in the Boro for one more transfer. My comp Elder Taylor is getting transferred to the Franklin zone to be a zone leader. And I am receiving another zone leader from Clarksville named Elder Jorgensen. He's 6'4 and supposedly a very good missionary so I'm very excited. This transfer will only be 5 weeks. So it will be a short one. And when President called he said I'm leaving next transfer. But things could change who knows! So that's the big news so far.

This week was really good. We are finally starting to find people to teach again. We have this awesome family from Haiti that we are teaching. It's kinda hard tho because they speak Creole and French better than English. But we are doing our best. We also found a younger military couple that are really interested in learning more and I'm very excited to be teaching them. Elder Taylor is kinda chapped because we are just finding some really prepared people and he is leaving. I'm gonna miss that guy tho. He sure is a party. It was really nice to have a companion from Cache Valley for my first one.

Besides that we had the opportunity to give a blessing to a lady at the local hospital. And while walking in we encountered a lady who was beside herself and very angry. She tried to run into us and then proceeded to follow us to the elevator. Me and Elder Taylor didn't feel very good about it. Some interesting paranormal things happen here in the south that's for sure!

Oh and I met my first anti Mormon guy on a porch knocking doors this week. He told us that according to the King James bible we are a false cult. And that the book of Mormon is garbage. Then he said I hope you guys are okay with heat cause your going to hell. We smiled at him and said have a blessed day sir. People in the south are pretty cool:)

I finished training this week. My 12 week course is officially over. And I'm kinda sad, but now I have to take the training wheels off so that's exciting. And I might get to drive next transfer ! So that makes me super happy. Besides that things are going well here. It rains all the time! Thanks for the update mom. I love you guys lots and I know the book of Mormon is true! I hope you all have a great week.

I tried to do better at taking pictures hope you like them.
