Transfers

Hey everybody! 

Well, I'm glad to hear that you had a good week Mom. Not going to lie though, you're a nerd. Or a teenage girl. I do not get the hype. I'm sure it's good, but I think I'm on dad's side. If only you prayed as hard for the Utes as you did to get those tickets... (To Hamilton :)

Also, sounds like there's a pretty good season so far for polo. Keep up the updates! Nice job Boo and Ains! You guys are going to be way better than me!

This last week's been pretty awesome. It is transfers this week, and Elder Boardman is leaving. He's going to Dartmouth, he's going to be an online finding leader, and basically teach the mission how to use Facebook better, which is pretty sick. I'm staying here, which I'm pretty happy about, Bathurst is super awesome. My new companion is Elder Pierson, which is pretty exciting. He's a good missionary, and we're going to get some work done! 

Also, some really good news. Nick is doing a lot better! He had to go to the hospital this week, but it helped him a LOT! He's feeling a lot better. He is still in the hospital, but they let him come out from 4 to 8 weekdays, and 12 to 6 weekends, which is awesome! We were able to go over last night and see him again, Elder Boardman got to say goodbye, which we were worried that we might not be able to do that. 

We got back to Bathurst Thursday afternoon. We dropped off Elder Greenburg in St. Quentin with Edmundston, and then finally got back to our area. Despite the long time out, we saw a lot of miracles this last week.

For example, Rachelle and Nick needed a new table, theirs broke, and they gave us a call. Now, Elder Boardman has had things miraculously appear on the road when people needed it, and we were definitely keeping our eyes open for one. We didn't find one on our drive, but the next day we sent a message to Pres. Edwards, to see if he knew where we could get one. He called us right back, and told us that we must be "incredibly lucky" because he was getting rid of one, and was just about to put it online to sell.

We found some new cool gators. Allen and Reg. Allen is an old fisherman, and loves to talk. He met missionaries in the past. Reg is someone we found close by, who told us he might be interested in coming to church. Neither of them made it, but we had a good lesson with Allen the other day. 

We put Tanya on date for June 16th, and she's super solid. She came to institute last night, and really liked it. She thought the members were super kind (they are) and that when she came, she just had this big feeling of peace. She's pretty excited for church, so it will be cool to see her there. 

Tommy's moved into his new place, and we've been helping him move in. We fixed Nick and Rachelle's old table, and gave it to him. We also got a sofa from Pres. Edwards, and moved it to Tommy's place. He's becoming a lot more independent, which is super good. He's going to start the stop smoking program again, as soon as Nick's back out of the hospital.

Anyway. Big week. In other news, IT WAS 23°C YESTERDAY!!!!!! IT WAS SO OK NICE! I'm going to need some short sleeve white shirts too! 

I saw in my drafts that I didn't send those photos, so I'll send those as well today. There are some pretty dang gorgeous photos. (He didn't send them.)

Love you all!

Transfers!!!

Hello!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY Ellie!!!!! I hope you had a great one!  So yes, I got transfered!! I'm going to Fredericton with Elder Olsen. We're going to be zone leaders, and I'm super excited!! Elder Olsen is one of my favorite elders, so we're going to be having a great time! They closed down Dieppe, so there are only two French areas now, Edmundston and Bathurst. Elder Smith went to Bathurst. The French areas are in New Brunswick, but the majority of the areas are English (like mine).  I had a pretty good week. Deji got baptized!!!!! It was so, so cool. I was one of the elders who found him, and I had a chance to teach him on exchanges. Then Sunday was really good too.  I'm doing really good health wise! I've had no problems. We found someone pretty cool. Her name is Monica, we found her through Facebook. We're going to teach her again tonight.  I liked going to the zoo a lot. We have played Settlers of Catan a lot together, except it...

Yes, it was Zone Conference

Salut tout le monde! Sorry that I didn't send that schedule again. I'm surprised they don't post that on the facebook page for all the parents. It's hard for me to remember that when you're not living your life 6 weeks at a time you don't normally keep track of when "week 2" is, so I'm sorry. I'll try to make sure to say in the email the week before anything like that happens.  I'm glad that you had a good week. Women's conference sounds like it was pretty nice. I know what you mean when you talked about having very crazy weeks! Also, I'm super jealous of being able to go see Avengers, even if the ending was bad. I keep seeing posters for it everywhere, and I'm pretty curious as how they made the whole connection to Guardians. But I guess I'll find out in 450ish days. (That gives me chills, agh!) I'm looking forward to  Sunday  too! You guys have church at 10 right? There is a  ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ >...

Halifax Burger Week

Hey all, Wow, super stoked for Boo’s call! You should forward the email to me and let me find out where he's going today before Boo sees it. I promise I won’t tell. :) I didn’t see those photos or anything because the mission is doing a social media fast, so we’ve been off Facebook and Instagram, and won’t get back on till Friday, so I won’t see anything on there for a while. I really hope you get a good mission president too, literally having had President Pratt and President Low have been SO incredible. Both have taught me so much, and are so obedient. It makes such a big difference. I hope you get a good obedient mission Boo. It literally makes such a big difference on your mission experience. I remember when I opened my call I was a little excited to go to the CHM, but I was also a little bit disappointed, cause I wanted to go to some place in Africa or something where you baptize 120 people a week, but since I came here I’ve seen how much better off I have it than all of ...
