Hi Momma!!

Yeah yesterday with MLK the library was closed and we didn't really have the opportunity to email but today we went to a business center really close to our apartment complex. So I could email from the business center here or at the library not too far from us but its got some more distance and we are on bike.

This week we got to go eat dinner with three families. The Cases', Browers, and the Francis' which was pretty fun. I heard what happened with Cami so I hope everything goes well back in the office and I hope Cami is doing alright too.

Sounds like you were having a lot of fun with the kiddos and their busy busy schedules. Funny how at so young they could be so busy all the time. I am learning a little bit of Spanish from my companion but I haven't asked to learn any I guess. I could have him teach me but we need all the time we can get to talk to people during the day because on bike it takes some time and distance to travel to people and we are talking along the way. Maybe I can learn an itty bitty bit. 

Everything out here has been going pretty well though. Just last week it rained from Monday night all the way through Tuesday to Wednesday morning was when it cleared up. So we got to bike around in the rain and get extremely soaked and pretty much talk with no one the entire time (because everything is safe and cozy in their homes) so that was pretty fun. On top of everything though its been a crazy week with bike problems and weather and just navigation in general in this area it gets pretty interesting out here. We are trying our best out here and committed ourselves to try harder to meet our goals and help others progress in the gospel. We had a couple lessons and discussions about the Book of Mormon with some of our investigators this week and actually find another person, Rafael, who we are going to try and teach the entire family too. Its pretty awesome!

I failed at taking pictures again last week with everything going on but I'll TRY to make a conscious effort to take pictures and other things for you. Otherwise I love you lots and hope everything goes well for everyone back home!!

We had a mission conference yesterday so our preparation day got switched today for the time being. But we might be having a temple trip sometime this next month in November, but I'll try and warn you and everyone in advance. I honestly dont know if I will, just thinking about it makes me queasy. I know that trials are for the better, but I really really really want it to be done. Truly. I'm going to be sending a letter to the Mulder's sometime today or tomorrow, cause I am thankful for them. I dont even know anymore honestly.  Yeah I heard about Elder Noorlander's little brother coming to the mission a couple weeks back. Everyone here was honestly shocked, because as far as I know that's never happened. He comes into the mission sometime in December I believe. Well my new companion is Elder Singleton, and as far as I am concerned I hope and pray I only stay with him for this one and only transfer. He was trained by actually my trainer (my 2nd one), Elder Chris

Yup transfers happened today and Elder McLaughlin is leaving to go finish training another Elder who just came out 6 weeks ago. He'll do great out there, I'm getting Elder Johnson (he came out into the mission when I was in my 4th transfer in Ontario) and he's from North Carolina! I've served around him quite a bit so this'll be fun! I think PDay will still be the same. We can email from our phones and not everything is closed so it'll be fine, what holiday is coming up? I don't know anything so far as of right now concerning my mission reassignment. It'll probably be talked about later in the future, still up in the air but I believe President Taylor has been talking with the neighboring missions concerning what'll happen.  Mary did pass her baptismal interview though this past Wednesday! She's super excited for her baptism coming up really soon. We started making her baptismal program for her and inviting everyone we know to come and attend.

Alright Question time: 1. How'd the week go? Well we had zone conferences so we had it in the desert and the valley so that took out a good chunk of time during the day. But I was able to learn a lot regarding studies and how can we get more out of them. After all the purpose of studying is rooting ourselves more in the gospel and replenishing our understanding. I feel like if we have a purpose of why we are studying or praying to learn about new things it'll be given unto us. 2. Anything exciting? Well recently our mission and a couple missions ran into a little problem. All the missions with technology using the MaaS360 app had a pretty harsh thing happen. Somehow all the apps or things we use got disabled and removed so we no longer have our Area Book Planner, Facebook Messenger, and a ton of other apps that are to make the work move forward. Lots of missionaries called us this morning. I counted 22 phone calls and 11 text messages from all different missionaries
