Week 69: October 23, 2017

This past week was pretty great. We had a good meeting with the Elbirt's. We were also able to do service for a non-member lady at her farm. Well, we do it every week but this week, I remembered to bring my camera for once soooooooooo you guys get to see some pictures! She recently purchased a bus with the dream to renovate it into an RV. We have been the labor to help out with that and I got to fulfill a lifelong dream of standing on top of the bus. 

We had a great primary program this week and last week in both wards. The kids are great. As you can imagine, there was a lot of kids really getting into it and of course, dabbing somewhere in the song. There was never a dull moment with these guys.
We had transfers recently and our district is now: Elder Selli, myself, Elder Wilkinson, Elder Suriyachan, Elder Bishop, and Elder Maynes. We all have really great chemistry together and have many opportunities to serve together and get to know one another. I am really looking forward to this transfer!​

Week 68: October 16, 2017

This week was pretty great. We had a big public event for family history that we were able to volunteer at. It was great to see so many people so interested in their roots and we were able to show them a few tips and tricks to get started. We also got to talk to people who, if we were out in public, would definitely not have stopped and talked so that was great. 

Transfer calls came in and sadly, we are losing Elder Scott. He finally got his VISA and will be finishing out the rest of his mission in Samoa. I will be staying with my companion, Elder Selli for another transfer. We are looking forward to working hard with these members and investigators.
Today we had a zone talent show. The zone leaders asked me to MC and also to fireknife. I found me a stick and went to work. GG. Anyways, we have two sisters from Samoa and one of them was actually there when I was there and she saw the Living Legends show! Small world.

I really don't know what else to talk about here. Uhhh I'm good, the work's going well, my companion is great, and the mission is going too fast. I love you all and I'll talk to ya later!

Week 66: October 2, 2017

Not much to write about this week. I will spare you the copy and paste of my favorite conference talks and quotes as I'm sure you've all watched it or read up on it, etc. 

It was a pretty average week out here in good ole Danville as far as average weeks go. No car break-ins, no burglaries, no assault, etc.
Okay fine, I'll share my favorite point made at conference. Know that God loves each and every one of you regardless. Through the Atonement of Jesus Christ, we can all come closer to Him. That's one of my favorite points made but very summarized.
Thank you all so much for your love and support and concern about our car. I stayed safe this time hahaha nothing broken, nothing lost. Love you all!
