The Stairs of Cirith Ungol

Greetings my friends!

How has life been treating you? I’ve had some fun exchanges and lots of rain.

I was able to go on exchanges to Zachary, McComb, and Denham Springs! It was fun to visit the Zachary area and we talked to 4 different atheists during that exchange. In McComb we had some awesome lessons and I remembered the streets really well so I was able to direct us without a map. I went on exchanges in Denham Springs with Elder Weston. He’s currently one of four APs in the mission right now because we are preparing for our mission to split in July. Pride is doing okay; the only problem we are facing is that people don’t want to drive 20 minutes to church.

Now I get to save the best for last and wish my mom a wonderful Mother’s Day! She has been the greatest inspiration in my life and I’m so glad she is my mother. I couldn’t have asked for someone better. She has always supported me and taught me basically everything I needed to survive on the mission. Happy mother’s day mom!
