Hopefully this guy pulls through with his commitments! A couple weeks ago we were invited to a penecostal church, so we decided to pull up today to there service.

  Hey Everyone! Hope your all doing fantastic! This week has been pretty exciting for the most part!  Monday: Did the same as every week. Played basketball and some frisbee golf    We had a meal at the McCotters house, and they fed us taco soup, which reminded me of home a little.  Tuesday: Went to B-Dubs for lunch with the district. Went on an exchange with the dawg Elder Hart to his area, which is still technically my area, but we focused on talking with swahili people. I spoke a few words to them, and that was pretty fun! We weren't hungry at dinner time, so we just did a few rounds of bowling, which was super fun!  Wednesday: Did a bunch of finding, until we had dinner at the Farleys. I was very hunger, but not excited to see what was for dinner. Shrimp spaghetti!! I was not excited about that, but i got down what was put on my plate, with the help of about 10 rolls.  Thursday: We had interviews with president today. Super Chill! Had a good lesson ...

  Hey yall, how's it going? Hope you've all had a terrific week! Mine was awesome! It went by very fast too which was nice!  Monday: P-day was chill, did the same thing as everyone other week. Played some basketball, volleyball, and some frisbee golf! Tuesday: Me and my comp have been looking for a couch for our apartment, and we finally found a decent looking one on the side of the road. It didn't really fit in our car, but thankfully we were only about 2 minutes from home. We deep cleaned the couch btw, because we weren't trying to get bed bugs or nothin. Also, we had MLC so I got to meet Elder Brown a day early.  Wednesday: Very chill day today. Only had 1 lesson, so we just did a bunch of finding today!  Thursday: Zone Conference day! This is the day our mission has been waiting for. Elder Brown talked to us about so many things! He just radiates Christ's light so much, and it was so cool for him to be there! After zone conference, we got selected for our missio...

Hello everyone, hope your all doing spectacular!! This week has flown by, and I've seen a lot of progress with some of our friends! Monday: Today started off as probably the hottest its been at a whopping 60 degrees! We played some basketball, volleyball, and some pickleball ball. It was such a great pday. Then later that day we see the clouds start rolling in. We check the weather app, and there it is! Tornado watch!!! Me and comp both really wanted to see a tornado, but sadly none touched down in our area. Some other places in Wisconsin got it, but sadly Appleton didn't get one!  Tuesday: We are focused on doing member work this week as a district, so we knocked on a lot of members doors. We had a dinner with the Haupt family. There an older couple, but they spoil us as if we were their grandkids. We went home with a bag full of soda and candy! It was awesome! Then we did some service for an inactive family.  Wednesday: Ran an exchange with the goat elder Pappenhiem! He's...
