Hey y'all! We had a great wekkit flew by, we were working hard and had some good lessons! We have been meeting with these 10 year old twins named Jeremiah and Nehemiah. We teach them and than play basketball with them, they came to church and yesterday we chose a date for them to be baptized on! Oct 16th. We are hyped, that's a big boi miracle right there, we did exchanges with the Spanish Elders so I went on 3 different Spanish lessons I felt like a brand new missionary not knowing what was going on! Today we are fishing at a members house who lives on a lake, haven't caught anything yet but hopefully I will! Sorry for the short email, not many pictures thus week but I love y'all, email me!

Another Week In Louisiana

I felt bad but don't worry his han...

Welp we got transfer news... Both Elder Park and I are leaving. He is going back to Mckinney and I'm going to be a district leader in Brownlee Louisiana! This last week of the transfer has been fun and some funny memories made! We watched a 7 year old kid get bit by his own dog and not cry that was pretty insane! It had been a fun but sad p day saying good bye to everyone. I'm gonna miss this area a lot I changed tremendously as person and missionary as I have served here and came closer to my savior Jesus Christ. One of my favorite things that I learned while serving here is about the enabling power of the atonement, Christ's  atonement is not only there for when we make mistakes and need to repent even though we do need that everyday. It is also there for anything else we go through in this life. Jesus Christ took on all of our pains and afflictions we will ever go through. When we are sick he has felt it when we broke an arm he has felt it. I guess the point I'm tryi...
