  What's up guys! Another week, another letter! That's how we like it   butttt not a bad week! Really just out here living the simple mission life, no taxes, no paying for gas, it's chill preaching the gospel!  Updates for the week.... IT SNOWED!!  Pictures are for sure in the link, and you can see how beautiful the snow is here!  Also, I made some big changes to my appearance...  also pictures in the link!  Haha. But all is well! We've been teaching the same people, helping them progress, and have found like 6 new people to teach this week! So that was very nice! Our Thanksgiving was great! We had a member meal and we played games with whipped cream... also in the pictures link!  So basically just go to the link and you'll see everything!

He's the District Leader, so now it's just the 3 of us boolin in Beaver!  But HOLY this weeek was lit haha we had a member meal every night of the week! The people out here love us! And what's even better is we have a member meal every night of this upcoming week too ;) So catch me coming home in 2 years weighing in at about 310! This one might be a little bit longer because AUBRIE GOT BAPTIZED! Aubrie got baptized yesterday, and I'm so proud of her! She's a single mother of 3, and she has a very very strong testimony! I'm so glad I've been able to see her growth, and help her make the decision to become baptized and make this wonderful covenant with God! It makes me so happy to know that her children are going to be raised in this wonderful gospel as well! v Looking back on it, I don't know how my life would have even worked out without the gospel! Makes me h...

  What up gang!  Also y'all can just ignore the subject lol I never know what to put so I just do random things haha hope ya like it! But this week was not a bad week at all! Time is flying by so fast! My first transfer is almost over which is whackkkkk cuz like it feels like I've been gone for 2 weeks lol. But not too much happened this week! Just a regular litty week in the Burg! Guys the people here in Beaver are SOO nice! They feed us all the time and it's clutch haha like even people we are teaching give us pizza, drinks, and like snacks to take with us, even people we just knock on their door, they offer us drinks and stuff. This place also has a lot of people living off of welfare, so they're more humbled, and more willing to turn to God and listen to our messages. My babe of the week was Sister Burson! She's littyyyy haha she took my comp and me out to lunch and she brought one of her non member friends which was swag! We spit some spiritual thoughts out and...

Yo what's up y'all! Another week, another letter! This week was wild and a lot has happened! Haha. So on Monday, my sister and her two kids took my companions and me out to lunch/dinner! It was so good to see someone that I like actually knew lol! Buttt I also got a day and a halfs notice that I was going to be Emergency Transferred to Beaver. Elder Edwards., (my new companion who is an ASL missionary called to serve in Pittsburgh PA. He is very hard working. He's from Colorado, and he went to BYUI for a semester.) So it's lit... was in a trio and his other 2 companions got to go to their OG assignments in Russia! So I was over here in a quicky! Got here Wednesday morning, and boy is it different! In Cranberry, We'd have maybe 3-5 lessons a week, but here in Beaver, we're averaging 6 lessons a day! Finding around 6 or 7 new people a week!  A LOT of people are ready and willing to hear the gospel for the first message or so. It's hard to get 2nd and 3rd lesso...

This week was SO GOOD not even gonna lie haha. Buckle in because this one is a wild ride!  We'll start off with miracles! Ed, a recent convert, was diagnosed 27 years ago with MRSA. I'm not exactly sure what it is, but I've been told it's terrible. So if you want to look it up, be my guest lol.  So the way he told us it works, is you get a number after you get tested for it. If your number is higher than 170 you're considered "incurable". Ed was sitting at 168. He had 9 treatments lined up which should have taken his number down to around 40. After hi...
