New Hampshire!!!!

Yes that's right I am now in New Hampshire!!!!  In less then 6 weeks I have been to every state of the mission......that's 4 states in 6 weeks wow, Mass. Vermont, New York, and now New Hampshire XD!!!!  I'm in the town Keene, it's about the same size as Evanston and the ward is around 130 people which is WAY nice compared to what it was in N. Adams :) so that's really nice to be in a real church again XD!!!  My new comp is Elder Gardner and he is from Canada, he's way cool and chill and a very good missionary :) he's been out 6 month.  Anyway :) so far I am loving it here, all the members are pretty cool from what I’ve seen and we've done some fun stuff so far.  On Saturday it was pretty much an all day service for people in the ward.  We helped move a bunch of wood for people then raked a LOT of leaves.......it was thee most epic leaf pile I have ever seen.....but sadly I wasn't able to go jump in it :( o well lol I was helping people out and it was a blast.  Sunday was the primary singing thing....ya don’t remember what those are called but they were singing and what not...o ya primary program duh....wow I'm slow XD!  It was extremity funny actually one kid was supposed to play the violin for one of the songs and he was messing up lol you should have seen the look on his face is was soooo funny then he ended up ducking behind the piano put the violin away and sneaked back to his spot :) it was great! Then we ended up going to this investigators house....they have 2 read tailed boa's XD I had the big one around my neck (about 5ft long) and the smaller one on my hands (about 3ft long) it was cool :) had a good time.  Then there is now or Monday :) well still the same for P-day lol go fig huh!  Were going to go play some b-ball around 2 or 12 your time :) [probably hit up WAL-MART YA!! and buy some stuff that we need, then ya go to dinner with the smith family at 6 and do some street contacting till 9 :) so its going to be an awesome day :) wish you were here with me love you all tones see ya soon XD!!!

SUP EVERYBODY!!!

SUP EVERYBODY!!! so this week has been quite awesome.....oddly enough though we had 7 appointments cancel on us which was making the week drag on really bad cuz we ended up tracking A LOT this week, but my comp and I started to mess around a bit while walking house to house. One day we were quoting Forest Gump " I love you Jenny" LOL ah fun stuff it was awesome.  On Monday though (yesterday) IT WAS EPIC! Best p-day I’ve had so far. So the entire district (6 missionaries) went to my branch president’s house for basically a day at the spa lol.  we went into a sauna so we could do this foot thing that gets rid of bad toxins that are in your body then after that since my branch president  is a chiropractor by trait we all got our backs fixed lol it was epic.  After that we went up to Mt Greylock and went to the top of a light house (yes they have a light house here and i have no idea why) and got some decent pictures of the hills......they call them mountains here but no there hills lol.  After that we went back to the house sat for an hour, i took a 30minute nap and we went to a dinner appointment :) it was a great day that was for sure very very fun.  Now I am here typing you all an e-mail because the library was closed yesterday due to Columbus Day lol :)  well I hope this e-mail was worth reading for once lol i had a bit more to say XD!  I miss you all, but its fun here so ya guess ill stay for another year or so lol see you all soon i wish you the best Love you all XD!!!!!

Love,

Faith walk

Hey everybody :)

So we found a family that looks really promising.  Funny story actually, so we were out on our faith walk late at night near our apartment where nobody walks, just hoping that we would run into somebody. We ended up talking to some drunk guy and he told us that we could come over the next day at 3 and he gave us the address.  So we went over the next day and nobody was home, so we walked around for a minute and ended up talking with this lady for a minute and she was interested and told us that we should talk to her husband about it, she lead us to the house the drunk guy told us to go to lol :)  so it turned out that the guy gave us a phony address, but we might have gotten a golden family.  We weren't able to meet with them our first appointment, but the wife kept calling us to come back again and again until we were able to meet with them.  The appointment went wonderfully, the parents seamed really interested and we are going back to there house on Tuesday :) hopefully everything works out.

That so far is the best thing that's happened on my mission so far.  It's pretty hard out here when nobody wants’ to talk with you, but when you get that one family that listens and they contact you instead of me trying to get a hold of them, really makes this worth while.  Even though I don't know what is going to happen with them, I'm starting to realize more every day that what I'm doing means something to other people and that just buy talking to somebody for a minute is all it takes to plant a seed in there heart, that maybe some day they might call the missionaries to come talk to them :)
