Howdy there, buckle up because this is going to be a crazy email. Yes I lived and survived during three tornadoes it was pretty scary the first night we got off a call with president and he mentioned that there had been a tornado touch the ground in the mission. It was pretty bad weather raining and thundering and the lightning is really pretty, we got put on tornado watch at 10:30 right when you're about to go to bed the sirens were going off in town everyone was calling us, we hid in the bathroom for 15 minutes and then we decided it was not a big deal it took me awhile to fall asleep because of the rain and thunder I woke up at 2 a.m. to the house shaking and I thought the tornado must be right outside I was about to wake everyone up and go to the bathroom but I checked my phone first to see where the tornado was but I couldn't find anything so calm down after like 5 minutes and so I just prayed a lot and went to bed. The next morning Facebook was blown up with pictures of o...

Howdy y'all! This week was an absolute blur. It went by really fast and it was awesome from  what I can hardly remember it. We had interviews this week with president and sister seitz and that was awesome got to see them a lot this week and spend time with them. The spirit is always so strong and I learned so much! We also moved into the teftellers house this week again and are going to stay there for 2 weeks while they are in San Diego. We've already had a lot of fun memories in the house, I'll tell you some stories about later. First off we had two more other Elders come stay with us from Shreveport and drove to mlc at president's house. At night before we go to bed we play sardines where one person goes hides in the house and we have to go find them and once you find them you hide with them because the house is big and its pitch black at night and really scary but as we were playing last night elder Allen stepped in a puddle of water inside the house. So we turned on...

Howdy y'all, it has been an amazing Miracle filled week! You guys won't even believe it. So at the beginning of the week we drove up to Idabel and it exchanges with them on Tuesday it was really cool to go back to Idabel like always. We had a lot of fun with them, we went to dequeen the next day and that was a little rough because they don't have a lot going on so it's pretty slow but we taught a couple lessons it was great. Once we got back to Gilmer we went on another exchange with the elders that live with us. We got to teach our friend ceejay as we showed up he was super happy and immediately let us in but he had all the lights off and it was super dark, he told us that he found out his uncle passed away that morning so obviously we taught the Plan of Salvation! He seemed to enjoy it and knew it was true but I don't think he understood the seriousness of it, he was a little skeptical to come to church but we invited them and he said he might come sadly he didn...
