Sorry this email is going to be pretty short. The libarary for the stake center is closed so I am typing on my phone, and its really tedious so just bear with me here.

This last week was insane. I got sick for 3 days and then when I got feeling better my companion had a migraine so we stayed in the apartment for 4 days straight... Then throughout the week a lot of random shenanigans happened that just threw us off. I honestly cannot describe what happened. But besides from that I did get to meet with Brother Donovan who is the counselor. The meeting went really well, he committed me to writing every night one moment I saw the Lord's Hand in the day. I'll be meeting with him next week. The packages havent come in yet, they will probably be here tomorrow. But I did get that Fall Package with all those goods you left for me and my companion. Sadly we were sick so its just sitting there.

Honestly really nothing happened this week besides the fact I pondered a lot and studied since we got stuck in the apartment. Its been getting harder and harder to stay motivated but I am trying... I dont even feel motivated to email, its almost a hassle now. But I am grateful for all your prayers and fasting. I dont know what is in store but I have been praying and hoping more than I ever have before... 

I am sorry though this email is so short, next week should have some more in store. I'll let you know.

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
