10/29/2018 Week 52: How Do Construction Workers Party?

They raise the roof. Hello everyone who reads these. How was your week. Mine was good. We went finding a lot but we also had a few lessons in between which was sweet. We also did an activity with the youth. We did a missionary Q&A because we have 2 people in our branch with there mission calls. One of them had their farewell talk yesterday. It was really good and a lot better than the one I gave. It was about Christ like attributes. We also had an investigator at church. We had been struggling lately to contact them and they haven't come lately so it was refreshing to have someone come. The temperature has dropped recently so I have been layering up. And I feel weird about it because it's only 45°-50°. We also had exchanges and I was with Elder Cloward for it. It was pretty fun and he is a great missionary. Then on Thursday we had dinner at a members house and they made one of my favorite meals so that was probably the highlight of my week. Also they just gave permission for us to use an app that helps us sleep. And I have been sleeping a lot better recently. So that is making happy. Also I got some ear plugs recently and I enjoy them too much. The reason is because lately there has been a lot of noise outside our apartment complex and just other loud noises so now I have sought relief. I also made a tie this week. There are no pictures of it yet because it's not completely done. But when it is finish I will take pictures. I made it out of an old shirt since I have nothing else to make it out of. But other than that that is my week. I don't have any pictures to send. Talk to yall later then. Bye!

10/22/2018 Week 51: Why Did The Pepsi Employee Get Fired

He got tested positive for coke. Hello once again. This week was kinda boring since I got the Flu. Yep. As a missionary I can honestly say that being sick is the worst because its not like being sick at home where you can find many things yo occupy your time. No you just have the church movies you have watch 5 other times to occupy you. But its not all bad because it makes you really appreciate the scriptures. But of course since I got sick there won't be many pictures. But I did take a picture of the awesome pajama shorts I found in the apartment. Your welcome. Anyways that's really all that happened this week. Sorry this email is so short. Talk to you later. Bye!

10/15/2018 Week 50: Why Was The Archeologist Sad

Because his life was in ruins. Lol. I make up these jokes when I am bored. I am running out so I need to come up with more. I hit my year mark on Thursday! I didn't do anything to celebrate since it was Thursday. We just helped do stuff at the church most of the day since stuff was happening there. It's hard to believe I have been out this long considering it feels like I just left the MTC an hour ago. It's been a good year. I have learned a lot but on the other hand I feel like there is still a lot I need to learn. I wouldn't give up this time for anything. This week was a good week and a sad week also. For the fourth time on my mission I have been to a funeral. I am kinda scared about that because I don't know if it was their time to go or if God is preparing me for the future. I probably am just over reacting. I have also been very tired this week for some reason. But I will get over it. It seems like everyone is getting sick. Thankfully I have been able to avoid it but my companion still has a slight cough from it. I am in a branch in this area. Good area. Smaller than I would like. I feel like we are running out of ideas. This week was also a little slow because we have been doing a lot of finding and it's always the same reply when they answer. "I already have a church". Then there is the time when people try to prove you wrong with scripture they don't understand. But people were a lot nicer this week. So I am pretty happy. I think it's because they feel bad that we are out because the temperature dropped this week. People have even let us in to warm up. We had a hail storm this week. It was pretty cool since I have only been in one. Also they are starting to harvest the corn so it looks a lot bigger and open. Not so cramped. It's nice. I love driving around the never ending fields. I need a hair cut. My hair feels too long. It's been pretty chilly here recently. I love sweater weather. I did get my package. Thank you for all that stuff. We only have a dollar general here that we can shop at for groceries and there is not much. Usually we get fed 3 time a week. That's all for my email this week. Talk to you later.

10/8/2018 Week 49: What Happens When You Eat Too Much Alphabet Soup

You may have a serious vowel movement. Hello once again. This was an interesting week. So it started with my companion, Elder Topham getting sick. He threw up Wednesday morning and so we stayed in all day. I did a lot of reading that day. Being sick as a missionary stinks. There is nothing to do but read and watch some really strange movies that the church released in the 90's. That's it. Then on Friday we had the opportunity to go to the temple. Beautiful little building and I hope to go again soon. Then of course there was general conference. And that was a good experience. We spent it all at the church. So we pulled the couches in and watched in comfort rather than the plastic chairs they have. The week was interesting also because my companion lost his voice so when we finally went out I was the one talking a lot. Since he couldn't talk over a whisper. But we did teach a lessons so that was good. But that was my week. Talk to you soon.

10/1/2018 Week 48: Why do boats in Norway have bar codes on them?

So when they come to port, they can Scandinavian. 😀. Hello once again. This week was pretty interesting seeing that I have already been in this district before. So this week had a lot of this to do in other areas. So our car when I got to the area was having problems with cooling the engine. So we popped the hood and checked the amount of coolant we had and it turned out there was none to be seen. So this caused the car to start over heating when we would go up or down a hill so that was a problems since we had an interview for baptism for some investigators being taught by the sisters in our district because my companion is the district. So we went and did that and went home after because we didn't have enough time to get the coolant changed that night so the next morning we drove to a town outside of our area to a dealership that had what we needed since it took a specific coolant. They finished refilling and we got a cap put on the coolant tank because that was why we were losing so much coolant so fast and was hazardous because it is a big fire hazard. Right after we got it filled we went to the Marion area to help the Elders there with a family history booth because they were having a James Dean festival. It was unsuccessful. We talked to one person. And we were there for an hour and a half. Then we did a lot of tracting until Saturday. Saturday morning we went back to Anderson for another interview for their investigators. It was a family of 4 and they did most the interviews back on Thursday and we did the last one a few days later. The family was baptized later that night. We didn't go because our Branch was having a Hog roast and talent show so we went and helped the branch. It was such good food. One of the families in our branch does it each year and its always a great turnout. We don't have computers in our church building so we have to use the computers at the local library. I don't like it. I won't be specific but my surroundings are really annoying. I will just have to deal with it and pray that it goes away. It work. Its gone now. Anyways I don't have much time since there is a time limit for how long I can be on the computer. So I talk to you later. Bye.

Also I didn't send the full address last time so:

1775 Antler Ct. Apt. F3, Elwood, IN.

No Pictures this week. I forgot. oops
