Week 69 "Merry Christmas Everyone" December 24, 2019

Hello again! This week has been pretty dang good, really just a week of teaching about the Savior's Birth.  This week we had some good lessons with some people we are teaching at least one lesson haha.  We taught them the Gospel of Jesus Christ and also showed them the Christ Child and they really liked that.  The parents are less active members but are trying to come back to church and the kids want to be baptized so they might be on date for baptism in a little bit here.  The rest of the week we showed the Christ Child video to some less active families in the ward and they really liked it which was awesome.  But I hope you all have a great Christmas and remember what it is really about.  Sorry that this is a short email once again, I just sorta run outta things to say:) 

Week 68 "Transferred down to the Bitterroot" December 16, 2019

Hello again everyone! This week has been good.  Transfers happened and I was Transferred to the bitterroot.  Which is Stevensville Montana. It is a town of a little less then 2,000 People but it is a good town and there are good members here.  My companion is Elder O'Neil and he is from Oregon and he is awesome and a great Missionary. On Monday night we got transfer calls and I was a little sad when I got the news that I was leaving but it's all good.  Tuesday and Wednesday was just me packing so nothing to exciting.  Thursday was a heck of a long day. I woke up at 4:45 a.m. to get showered and ready and then I got on the transfer bus at 6:30 a.n. and we got to Helena, MT at 10:45 a.m. Then ate down there which was good, and then it was about a 3 hour drive to Stevensville so that was fun. We also went shopping and did some other stuff. We got down there at about 4:30 p.m. , but that was fun.   I just spent the rest of the night unpackin...

Week 67 "All this Missionary work Paying Off! We could get a Discount on Tattoos!"

Hello again Everyone, So this week wasn't too bad, but I also cant remember much of what happened, so once again this email will probably be pretty dang short.  So yeah my mind is blank and I can really only remember what happened from Friday to now.  On Friday we just did service at a food bank type thing and then we did service at a Metra but we just set up for it and then poured tea and coffee so that was fun.  At 5:30 we had dinner and then we decided to leave our car and walk to a Christmas Stroll Type thing and that wasn't that good. We then had a lesson at 8:00 with TaJuana who is our recent convert and we tought her along with the Monad sisters, so we walked and convinced the sisters that we ran out of gas like 4 miles away so that was funny.  After the Lesson we started running to get to our car cause it was 9:30 and we saw that a couple guys were stuck in the snow so we went and helped them push their car out of the snow and the one guy said "You...

Week 66 "Thanksgiving Week" - December 2, 2019

Hello Everybody! So this week wasn't too bad just kinda busy but at the same time I can't really remember much of what we did.  But our week didn't really start picking up until Thursday.  Wednesday we had District Council and then did a little exchange, but I was with Elder Meza who is from Tampico Mexico and he is absolutely awesome and a great Missionary. Sadly he goes home on Saturday after 2 years of service.  Thursday was Thanksgiving and at 9:00 am, we did a Turkey Bowl with a bunch of non members and just played football with them for a couple of hours and that was super fun.  At 1 we had a Thanksgiving dinner with some members, they are our landlords and that was really good, and then we had some pie at another members house but that was that.  Friday night we got the opportunity to participate in a parade which was really fun, it is just a holiday parade. We were the ones handing out little electric candles, candy canes, and pass alon...
