  Hello everyone, hope your all doing amazing! This email is going to be shorter, because i typed up my entire email already, and then somehow it didn't save and got deleted, and I don't feel like typing it all again!  First off, we got transfer news! Im staying in Appleton and getting a brand new missionary. I was also assinged to be the district leader. Im pretty excited to take on the extra responsibility, but also a bit nervous! It'll be a great learning experience for me either way!  Anyways, this week has been really good with some cool miracles. We have 2 new friends who are starting to progress very well! We did some finding by a river with a lot of fisherman, we were able to find 2 people there, while at the same time catching a huge catfish!  Weather Report! Very warm and sunny! A little wind as usual.  Scripture Thought! I was reading about Abinadi, and how whem he was preaching to the king and his priests, only Alma trusted the words he was saying. A...

  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 ...
