Journey to The Cross-Roads

Alright, it’s been a bit!

I’ve had a blast up in Farmerville. We watched General Conference with the Varners. My favorite talk was Elder Bednar’s talk “All Who Have Endured Valiantly” where he connected enduring to the end and charity.

We had a Blitz in Farmerville, where every companionship in our district worked in Farmerville for a day. It was awesome! We saw a ton of miracles and me and Elder Sanders had a cool lesson with a dude who is going to preacher school.

A funny experience we had a few weeks ago was when me and Elder Sanders went over to someone who was taught by missionaries in the past. We went over and they were very welcoming, gave us a bunch of food and some really good salsa then told me I should be a model.

Some other big news, I’ve been transferred! I’m now in Pride, Louisiana with yet another W companion, Elder Warenski!

Let’s rewind and have a quick recap, because guess what! I’ve hit 16 months!

• 6 areas
• 10 companions
• 12 transfers
• 1 baptism
• 3 times the cops were called on us
• thousands of doors knocked
• thousands of seeds planted
• 487 hours of personal study

I’ve loved my mission it has changed me and made me a better person. I learned something from each person I interacted with. I know I’ve still got a third of my mission to go and I’ll probably grow even more, but I’m excited to see what the next 8 months bring!

May the Currents be in Your Favor.
