YOU MADE JALAPEÑO POPPERS?

Hey all,

WHAT? I had begged for those for years, and the first time you make them in all this time is while I'm on my mission? Wow. That hurts. Almost as much as it would hurt to make them without the gear. At least you have it figured out for when I get home, cause I EXPECT some now... 

Also, 1st place!!! That's super awesome! Man, I bet that was an incredible game! I wish I could watch it! I think it's so cool that we took 1st, I think that's the first 1st place finish for the varsity team. At least that I remember. It's going to be cool to see how they do this year in regular season! And I'm glad to see that the meme is staying alive, haha. 

I'm glad everyone misses me, haha. I miss them too, and no, you hadn't told me about the video thing, so that's going to be pretty exciting! I'm looking forward to that. 

I had a pretty good week. I'll try to go over all of it! Wednesday we had district meeting. Elder Pitcher and I went to the Saint John district meeting instead of ours, because we wanted to see how Elder Bluth, one of our district leaders, was doing with his district. It was really good, he's a really good district leader. There was a crazy snow storm that day though, and driving sucked! We got back, and then immediately had to leave for some lessons we had with the members. (Elder Pitcher and I have been teaching a lot of the members, it's been really cool!) It was going to be a pretty standard day, but then we got a call from Woodstock Elders at like 8. It turns out that they went down to the hospital down in Saint John after district meeting, and they weren't going to be able to make it back to Woodstock before 9. So they had to crash at our place for the night. Normally, that would just have them staying the night and then take off in the morning, but Elder Bringhurst and Robinson both wear contacts, and didn't bring contacts to replace the ones they were wearing. So, we ended up having to drive them back to Woodstock early in the morning! 

That was kinda the only eventful thing that happened. Wendy is doing good. We had a really good lesson with her this week. We're hopefully going to see Jacob this Saturday, because he really wants to do a nerf war! Unfortunately they didn't come to church, but we're still making progress! 

We did find a new investigator this week. Her names Carla. She was an old potential that we had, and when we followed up with her the other day, she let us come back. We taught her about Jesus Christ and His Gospel, and invited her to be baptized. She said yes, but we suspect that she doesn't fully understand everything. So stay tuned. 

Idk what I'd want for Christmas. I mean, the best parts of Christmas were always the food and the family, but I guess ties, clothes, and candy would do. But I'm sure you'll think of creative stuff to put in there. I'd love to hear from everyone again, that was really cool! 

We went down to Saint John again today. There's this thing called the Reversing Falls, it was pretty cool. The Bay of Fundy runs up the Saint John River and reverses the flow of the water, which is pretty cool. There's a sky roof with a glass floor which was pretty cool. You can't really see it in the photos unfortunately. 

I really like the newsletter! 

Love you all!

Fewer days than Boo has years...

Hey all, Sorry if this one's the shortest yet. We're busy picking up the new missionaries, and the schedule has been crazy lately. Monday and Tuesday we had to create a system for everyone to get transferred, and then to transfer them all. We spent 24 hours planning, it was crazy. I've loved my mission. It's been so amazing. I wish I had more time, but there is more to do. I'm excited to see you all.  One of my favorite scriptures in the Book of Mormon on my mission has been 3 Nephi 5:13. "Behold, I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I have been called of him to declare his word among his people, that they might have everlasting life." I can testify that sharing his word brings us joy too. Love you all. See you later! Elder Marsh

Hello from France!

Hey everybody!  Sorry for the confusion last week. I didn't get to read your email before I sent mine, but I was able to read it really quick before p day ended, because we were at the church. To explain, the method we had was different in Edmundston than in Bathurst. At Edmundston, we had internet all the time, and a laptop. In Bathurst, no such luck. The only time I have internet is at the church. So to give you the cut off time, we leave the church  Monday  at 2 (our time) so as long as you write before then, I can see it. Otherwise, I'll only have what's already on my phone to read. Also, thanks so much to the Barnes! I loved your little Easter package and notes. You guys are the best! This last week has been crazy!!! Since last p day a ton has gone down.  Thursday  night, we started the stop smoking program with Tommy. Tommy's a beast, hes been making so much progress, it's insane. We had our exchange with Miramichi elders this last week, El...

Sorry this is a short one

Good Morning America! (Or Canada. or Vietnam. Guess it depends on where you live, or if you're old enough for that joke.) Man, do I miss basketball and football. Super excited to hear some more details! I didn't even realize that the PAC 12 playoffs are starting. Not only that, March Madness is going to be getting going too. Hopefully the Utes will follow the pattern and play their best basketball while there's a Marsh on a mission. Also super excited to hear about the spring football starting. Posters look sick for Boo's campaign. I'd vote for him. Especially if the Rock, Thor, and Will Smith are. They must know how to vote, so I should do the same! And his hair is real! Obvious choice. Hope you kill it Boo. It sounds like you've had a super fun week though. The RootsTech sounds like it was super awesome. We have had a chance to watch just a little bit of it here, and it looks like there have been a lot of really cool speakers. Miss the Polo...
