Pardon my french

 Look at pictures to get help with this movie reference. So this week we got our transfer news and only Elder Jordan is leaving our district and I'm not mad that I'm staying I love it here.

   Elder Brown and I got mostly along its been us getting more and more on edge sometimes doesn't help that I'm such a buster but it's still all good I'm grateful for him he's great. 
   Been a funky week with some people we have been teaching. We had 3 people join us at church Angel, Dream/Deshawn and Camelle so all fun our recent convert friend Emeri helped fellowship she's a beast and they are interested in baptism so we can't wait to talk about that more with them this next Wednesday. 
   It Snowed! We got like 3in of snow it was sweet! Had fun playing in it got a few fun pictures I made some smiley faces and snow angels it's been a blast. 
   Elder Brown's mom sent some balloons with cupcakes for him being out 6 months that was sweet! One of our friends on date posted something very questionable it was very interesting was kinda funny we are going to keep working with him. 

Love you all another fun fast transfer another blink of an eye and I'll be done soon! Not really but we say we are never going home and for the first time I said it like yay I'm never going home I have all the time to learn and get better but it's great.

Stay safe love yall

This week we had our p-day on Saturday so that we would go to the temple and watch an endowment and sealing from Elder Naluai's old area. A super cool special moment.  I'm getting transferred so that's wild. I'm going back to Elizabeth City! It's more or less exactly what I wanted I'm glad to have this happen. I'll be companions with Elder Hill that's going to be a blast. Friday is transfers it will be a lot of driving.  We played some disk golf this week again and I found some poison ivy evidently so. So just putting up with that.  It makes the everyday moment more interesting.  The Elders in our district had their car in the shop and they stayed over almost all week! We had a crazy few days. The downtown part of Suffolk is a 14-mile drive about 30 minutes. We took the bus there and then biked home. That was a fun day. A total of 23 miles biked that day we were dead! So fun though, I want to do it again.  Gunna be horrible to say goodbye to my friend Sa

So much happens every single week here in Chesapeake zone. We went up to serve again at the temple Monday and Tuesday that's why you are receiving this email on Wednesday. The temple is fun to serve at. We removed or put on shoe covering so people can enter the temple. Nice to hear everyone's thoughts on the temple both members and nonmembers of the church. I also love hanging out with the other missionaries and just having fun together. We had 10 Elders spend the night with some local missionaries it was all 10 of us in 2 bedroom apartment so that was a blast. My air mattress had a hole so I moved to the couch what a blessing that was actually slept really well. They had 7 missionaries in one room and 3 in the other I liked being in the 3 the other two missionaries are a lot younger in the mission and it was nice to just chat with them about how they are doing. Super fun though. We had a great lesson with a part member family. They have all been coming to church for years the

  Tuesday the 6th Today started out with interviews with the mission president; which is always really fun. We have seen President Hutchesen a lot recently. Zone conference, stake conference, and interviews. There has been a big focus on trying to talk with everyone and you'd think after being on my mission for 20 months I'd be a natural by now. Well as of 4 weeks ago I'd still kinda dread talking with everyone it's scary as many might agree, but I love it now so much more fun. With the focus to talk with everyone we have also just talked about being focused on our missionary purpose (Inviting others to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel by faith in Jesus Christ and his atonement, repentance, baptism, and receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost). So what I think of now is do you want to come closer to God? Some people say yes others say no. Among the people who say yes we go further if you are wanting to come closer to God, I know how or I believe
