Things are good. The area is doing good and the district is having fun. I have a meeting tomorrow pretty much all day so idk how that will be. We have found some good people and one wants to be baptized.

District Leader, Needles, & Hugging - March 20, 2019

This week has been a crazy and fun one. We have transfers tomorrow and I am staying in Columbus. Elder Henshaw is being transferred. I got called to be the new district leader so that should be fun. I get to run district councils every week, plan exchanges, and call the elders and sisters in my district to check up on them. I'm excited it should be a good learning experience.

This week we did service with one of the members. Someone drove up on his wet lawn so we helped fill in the holes and get his yard fixed up. He gave Elder Henshaw a "gardening" knife. We also wen to the children's hospital in our area and gave a blessing to a little boy who was there. His family is from the Gahanna area. The hospital is amazing.

We found some needles on the sidewalk this week. Sketch We were running to the children's hospital so we wouldn't be late and this big man started yelling at us and chasing us. Slow down why are you running from me. So we stopped. he wanted us to pray with him after that he put us both in headlocks and didn't let go for a little while. Then he asked me if I liked people touching me. I said no if you know me you know this. lol  It was an interesting experience. 

We are teaching some great people and working hard. We also went to the library this week. We study in there. I'll send a pic. An elder in the mission drew a picture of me. I'll send that too.

Talk to you next week

Walked, Walked, & Walked, & Walked More - March 11, 2019

This week we walked, walked, bused, bused, knocked, and knocked ALOT! Our area is huge so it takes 30 min - 1 hour to drive anywhere. If we ride the bus it takes more than that. So, it is a lot of walking in the cold snow or braving the bus. We don't ride our bikes because it has been so cold and they get stolen in this area. My companion and I are doing good. We are happy and just working. Our area is the most primitive in the mission. We don't have a dishwasher, laundry machine and stuff like that. I know first world problems, but its rough. lol  This was a good week. We went to the Fisher's sealing. I was able to be the witness in the temple. It was a great experience. We also went to the library and checked out some recipe books. (If anyone has good recipes, please email them to me) i made lemon chicken and it was awesome. 8 1/2 score from Elder Henshaw. We also found a Scientology church. Elly loves the show about Scientology so i sent a pic for her. We met them and got some pamphlets from them. They were nice. We were invited to watch a video in the back but declined. We didn't have time. I got the music you sent and I'm excited about the Aviators hat. All in all it was a good week. we are working hard and had a great lesson with one of our investigators. I'll talk to you next week.

Lots of Pictures - March 4, 2019

We talked to Sayre this week. He is doing good in Columbus. They are busy working 14 hours days walking the streets of Columbus. This week they had district council. They tried to liven it up by acting out a shooting scenario with cap guns. lol  Sayre went on exchanges. They found 5 new people to teach on exchanges. So, it was successful. They took a lot of pictures. He is working hard and enjoying every minute. It is cold there. The high was 6 degrees yesterday. He got the $5 Mcdonalds card from Grandma Linda so he was hyped about that. She never misses a week to email him or send mail. He likes his companion and is doing great.
