Hey Mis!
I'm excited to come home soon! My week was pretty good. We had zone conference and interviews with our mission president! It was interesting! They had us be in charge of setting it up and conducting, instead of the APs, so it was definitely more busy haha. But it went pretty well.
Our interviews afterwards were pretty fun. I got to talk with President Youngblood a little more, it was awesome. He reminds me a lot of President Beck. Same sense of humor, pretty calm guy. He'll be great for the mission!
I went on exchange with Elder Hills this week. He goes home with me too. He's been checked out of the building for a while, so the exchange wasn't too eventful. It was the first time I had been to Boulder City though, so that was pretty cool. It would be a pretty fun area if you're working haha.
Elder Hodge had a good exchange with Elder Hills' companion though, so it was worth it. Elder Hodge and I had a great lesson with a guy named Chewy! He's had a tough life, but he's really trying to change. He's getting baptized October 14th, we're excited!!
Have a great week!
Love ya Mis!

Week #102
Hey Mis!
I don't have too much time, but here's a quick update:
We had an interesting week. We had MLC on Wednesday with President Youngblood. It was pretty interesting. He pushed Preach My Gospel and the Book of Mormon a lot, it was pretty cool.
I also had an exchange with Elder Wardell again. He came to our area, and we had a temple tour with the Allen family! It was pretty spiritual. It was a little warm, but it was still a lot of fun. They came to church too, they're making great progress!
I also exchanged with Elder Houssian, from Texas. He started his mission the same time as Elder Cook and Elder Rigby, two of my previous companions. He's a pretty cool guy. We had some sweet lessons in his area.
Sunday was super busy. We had church, and then we were in charge of setting up the Why I Believe fireside, where recent converts share their conversion story. One of the people I taught in South Valley Ranch spoke, it was really awesome! After we locked up the door and everything, it was about 8pm. I got to where a suit almost all day between ward council, church, and Why I Believe haha. It was hot.
Have a great week!
Love you Mis!

Week #101
Hey Mis!
Sounds like a fun time in Utah. I hope you drive safely! As for my week, it was great! I love Elder Hodge. He's from Virginia, 45 minutes outside of DC. He's been out 11 months. I exchanged with him when he came in and I was his ZL, and now I'm his ZL companion.Haha. It's pretty cool.
We saw some sweet miracles this week. We got back in contact with Leonard and Trinity, and we had a great lesson with them! We also met with the Allen family and set up a temple walk for this coming week. We also were walking around a complex and we saw a less-active member trying to move, so we stopped by and helped them
load the truck. They're moving within ward boundaries, and we're starting to teach her kids now! So we're pumped.
I also got to attend Brian Merrill's baptism. It was fun. Elder Dodge and I were asked to give a joint talk at the baptism, which I had never done before. It was cool haha.
Have a great week!
Love you Mis!

Week #100
Hey Mis!
Bummer that your week was boring! At least nothing bad happened haha. And yeah it was fun to see Asia! She talked about possibly doing it, but I didn't know that she actually would!
As for my week, it was pretty cool. We had Camp PMG, where priests and laurels from the Lake Mead Stake get assigned to companionships to proselyte with them for the whole day. We had a 16 year old named Colton, he was a pretty cool kid.
We also received our transfer calls. I'm staying in Arrowhead and will be getting Elder Hodge! He's awesome. He was in my zone when I served by the Strip, he's a great guy! I'll be training him as a ZL, so it'll be the fourth guy I've ZL-trained. I'm really excited. Our transfer days got bumped to Wednesday, so I'll have one more day with Elder Shiffler tomorrow, and then it'll be my last transfer. It's crazy how much time has gone by!
I also got to attend a baptism in my last area for Alicia and Steven. It was cool to get to see them and watch their baptism!
Have a great week!
Love you Mis!
