Gringo in Nashville

Wednesday, June 26

I am so grateful Drew will still send an email. Even if its not as often. I know that after he chats with us he feels like its pointless to write and its a MAJOR effort but for this sake and journaling and anyone that is interested in what he is doing, its so important. It makes me want to be better at writing in my own journal. He actually had a baptism on his day, the day he talked with us. He wrote down his thoughts after and shared them with us later that night. They were so powerful!! Grateful for his example to our little family. Hoping those special moments will carry his through the hard times.

HEYY EVERYBODY

Im sorry its been such a long time since I wrote an email, it been crazy down here in Murfreesboro! Today we have a baptismal service for this lady named Silvia, she is so sweet and ready to be baptized! We have been teaching a ton of other people and are hoping to have some more baptisms in the near future!! So exciting :)

Also the main reason I haven't been writing a lot is because I love my zone and district so much!! Every Pday most of us get together and play soccer and volleyball and just hang out it is so much fun! Ive made a lot of friendships I hope to keep going even after the mission!

There has been some crazy weather here the past couple of weeks! We have had like three tornado warnings and we done a ton of service helping people clean up all the damage from them. They can snap big trees so easily its brazyy! For one of the warnings we were in Walmart and they took us back into a shelter and said we couldn't leave until it was safe!! It was cool, I have this weird desire to get a selfie with a nado in the background hahaha

This week is transfers and it is also Presidents Stones last week. It has been a crazy week! Im gonna miss President Stone but also im excited for President Weaver!! Im so grateful for this mission I have learned so much and im excited to keep learning and improving myself!! Recently I have learned the importance of the Book of Mormon, with out that book we have nothing. The Book of Mormon solditifies everything else. I loved something that president stone told me when I had interviews with him he said "either it's all true or none of it's true, there is no half and half no gray area" I testify that Jesus Christ himself is leader of the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints I'm so grateful for Him and his atoning sacrafice for all of us!!

Ps my hair is growing back and i ran into zak harrah at church!!!
