Howdy folks! The subject to this email is just one of the many
funny spellings we see when we travel around the area. I can't spell
very well so this place makes me feel good. There are a a lot of
illiterate people over here in Tennessee but they are some of the most
genuine people I know.
Just a little bit about this week....
The best part of the week was going on an Exchange with Elder Doman! Elder Doman is from Pleasant Grove, Utah!! Him and I have played football against each other for many years. Getting to spend some time with him has probably been one of my most favorite days on the mission. We got like 5 new investigators and have had so much fun walking around Hohenwald. We talked about each others lives before the mission and man, him and I are very similar and have had very similar lives. We have decided we should room together when we go to college at Utah State! He is just a super solid dude and I wish we had hung out before the mission. He came out with me and he actually taught me so much in one day. I am very grateful that he is my district leader!
The other best part of the week was watching Ashley Ball be baptized! She was the investigator I was talking about in my previous letters. She is so solid and I was so happy for her decision to be baptized! Even though I could only watch over Skype, I still felt the Spirit very strongly when her husband baptized here. It has been a huge journey for her and she has truly changed her heart to follow the lord. I am so grateful that the Lord allowed me to be apart of all of this.
I am getting so excited for the holidays! First off, I would like my family to know that I am practicing for the annual Thanksgiving speed tournament and they should be worried for 2018 event!! For Thanksgiving this year we are to do as much service as possible and can have up to 3 dinners.... We actually already have 2 so I will be stuffed on Thursday. There hasn't been any word on if the ward is having a Turkey Bowl so I am a lot bummed about that. And before you know it Christmas will be here!! I have already started the countdown to when I can talk to my family.
I love y'all and keep up the good work. Hopefully I make it to next week with only gaining a few poundage. Have a blessed Thanksgiving!!
