Not 114 degrees

Hey everyone!

Glad to hear you had a fun week down south. 114°F is crazy! That is about 5 degrees away from being twice as hot as the high for today here in Canada! I don't know how I'm going to be able to handle the heat when I get back, I'll be so adjusted to Canada that I'll be melting above 70. (Although, there's been a couple days where I wished for just five minutes in that kinda heat!) The weather here is nice now though. 

Congrats to Harley! Norway is going to be sick! The mission is super awesome, I'm really excited for you! 

Also, I hope you saw the photos. Did the Google photos sharing work?

This week was pretty good! We had zone conference this last week, and said goodbye to the Pratts. It was sad, but it was a very uplifting meeting. The Pratts explained what'd going to happen over the next week as President Low comes in. There were some good trainings too!

The other Elders are Elder Sawa-Sawa and Elder Day. They're also the Zone leaders, which is pretty fun. So with that, and because they also have people who speak French, we work with them a lot. And then my comp is Elder Smith. The same from Edmundston, so it's lots of fun. 

There were some changes to Preach My Gospel too! It's really cool, there's a lot of good new quotes from President Nelson, as well as it talks a lot about the Doctrine of Christ, and how we can teach it better! Really good stuff, I highly recommend that you study it!

We spent a lot of time finding this week, and we taught Megan, one of our investigators. She came to church this week too! She's getting ready to be baptized for July 28th, so I'll have a good best day of the year dad!

I love you all! Have a really good week! Sorry this is short!!!!

Got my travel plans!

Bonjour tout le monde!        This has been a crazy week! We've been super busy with lessons, we have had two or three lessons a day, and lots of really good devotionals.  On Sunday , we had Chad Lewis come and talk, and that was really cool. He talked about his mission, his career, his chance to do this hike up Kilimanjaro with a bunch of wounded soldiers from Iraq, kinda all over the place. It was more like a slide show than the kind of devotionals before. It was still good, but I definitely preferred Elder Oaks. We watched A Consecrated Missionary, by Tad Callister, for our film after, it was really good. I really love the  Sunday  films, gunna miss that in the field.         I also finally meet some other people going to Halifax! There are 4 sisters, and one other Elder, I'll be flying out with them on the 26th. I'm pretty sure I get to call you guys before I leave the airport on my flight, but I think they talk about t...

Yes, everyone's been freaking out!

Hey all, This week has probably been the craziest ever. The announcement came as I was down in a lesson in Halifax (long story, I'll get to it later) and so my phone just started vibrating like crazy during the lesson, and I was super confused. I checked it and saw a ton of missed calls, so I thought something bad just happened, and we finished the lesson quickly, and started calling people back. The other Zone Leaders answered and were just like, "Have you guys checked your email?" and we were really confused, but they told us to go check. Then I read the email they sent all of us, and I was just mind-blown. The elder I was with just pulled over, cause we were driving at this point, and we just sat there talking to them. It was crazy.  Anyway, I'll back up because it's been a pretty crazy week. P-day was a huge storm, and we were stuck in the house that night. Elder Willoughby finished packing. We also found out that because of the storm, the normal t...

This week's update

Hey everybody. I guess you didn't understand what I meant by "you have no excuse." There's a lot of times when we email in the morning. My phone doesn't have internet. I only get to see the emails I got from  Monday . IF YOU WRITE  ON TUESDAY , I MIGHT NOT SEE IT! Hopefully I will have time to read emails later. At least I'll have stuff next week. Now that I finished my little rant, this last week's been pretty good. We finished teaching Nik, Rachelle and Tommy all of the principles, and are just setting up their interviews. Tommy still is working on stopping smoking, but he's doing awesome. He came to a game night we set up, and to church this week, and loved both. The hit at the games night was this table hockey game, it's lots of fun! The travelling trainers came for our district meeting this week. Basically it's two missionaries who spend an entire transfer training the mission. It was lots of fun, Elder Ipson and Olmsted are bo...
