WEEK 36: One more time in BG

Hey y'all, hope everyone has been doing good, just wanted to shoot an email out to update everyone on what's been going on.

We got transfer calls this Tuesday and I'll be staying in Bowling Green for another transfer and receiving Elder Horsley and we will be the zone leaders. My greenie who just finished training, Elder Wales, will be going to a small town in Tennessee to train a new missionary, with the help of an older missionary.

I was kinda hoping for a change of scenery since this will be my 5th transfer here. But there is a lot of potential in this area so I can't really complain that much. We just put a guy named Alex on date for baptism on Monday. He is from Tanzania and speaks swahili and French and a tiny bit of English. But we have been making it work. He is so dope, he's way short and always smiling. He's helping me learn a bit of swahili. It's a hard language that's for sure. But we have lots of swahili people here so it's nice to know at least the basics. I guess bowling green is a designated safe city for refugees so that's why we have so many here.

Besides that everything is still going pretty good, every week we find more apartment complexes to tract, I swear there is a new complex built like every week. I'm excited to be a zone leader but a little nervous to. I only got to be a district leader for one transfer so I don't really know what I'm doing. I'm excited tho because now I get to go on exchanges with the aps and one of the aps Elder Bollinger trained me, so seeing him again is gonna be sweet! It's starting to cool off a bit here and the temps are mostly in the 70s and the humidity isn't to bad so fall is coming. I hate all the bugs here tho. The cicadas are so loud it's rediculous.

Also the new church history book that came out called Saints is way good. I read it all already and it was sick. It's all I did for like a week during our dinner and lunch breaks since the members don't feed us to often. That's about it for me tho. Love you guys and hope your all doing well!
