Well I'm glad that's over

What is happening y'all?

I hope you all had a fantastic week, because I sure did. My new companion, Elder Martin has been an absolute blast. We biked all over the place, and we had a blast. The heat has really been powering down on us, and it has been rough, but luckily we have the best members who let us crash their place and get some water. 

We have been super busy which has been really fun, but unfortunately, we are about to get a whole less busy because all of the people we have been teaching are not responding, so that's been "fun". 

We also have been playing a bunch of basketball, which has been awesome because my last apartment did not like too. So needless to say I have been rusty as heck, but that's ok that's why we have to Atonement of Christ, so that way we can improve. 

That's about it from me this week, unfortunately not much else happened. Well I hope you all have a great rest of your week, and as always stay safe out there.

P.S.

Peep the socks 😏

Another transfer another companion 👍

Hello my people,                                                                                                                 Tuesday June 15

I hope you all have had a fantastic week so far. So this week was transfers so my P-day was moved to Tuesday. And I am staying in the same area of Surprise, AZ. My current companion, Elder Moore, is going to Honduras, so I will be staying another transfer. I am super excited to stay in this area because these wards are awesome. My new companion is Elder Martin who has been with my last two companions, so this should be exciting.

But this week was fun, we had someone we were teaching accuse us of harassment, we got to go over to this member's house and try on a bunch of different star wars helmets, it was sick, we also met with this couple that has been a Stake President, a Mission President, and is now in the Temple Presidency for the Phoenix Arizona Temple, and if you don't know what that means, it just means he's done some really important stuff. 

This week the temperature reached and all time high of 115°F, and it felt great. It is really weird because Arizona is so flat and because of that it gets super windy and because it's so hot it is just like a constant blow dryer fanning you down.🤢 Quite nasty, but at least our member are nice to us and usually get us water or something, so that's a plus. 

I also went on exchanges this week with Elder Sandall and we had a ton of fun biking around. But we saw this really cool car and it was flipping awesome. We saw this new Toyota Supra drive past 🤤 it was so cool I took out my phone to get a picture and then dropped it and ran over my phone with my bike, and cracked my screen, but it was worth it because I got a picture of the car.

Well that is about it from me this week, I hope you all are having a fantastic week, and that the rest of your week is even better. And as always stay safe out there. 😜

Beauties of biking 🚲

Hello cool people,

I hope you all had a fantastic week. I have had a pretty decent one to say the least. We biked all over the place, and met with so many awesome people, it has been really cool to teach the gospel and help people know and feel of the love that God has for them. 

It has been crazy hot outside this week though. I kind you not that everyday this week it got over 105°, lemme tell you that I have been sweating so much that it has drenched my clothes at some times. But hey, at least I know imma be in really good shape and that's all I care about. 😎

This week I also got my second COVID shot, and jeez, it was not very fun. The first day I was doing pretty good and pushed through, and then I woke up the next day and had the worst body aches in the world. It was so bad that living down to rest hurt so bad I didn't even really rest. 

But that is about it for me sorry that this is so late but I ran out of time today. I hope you all are well, and stay safe out there.
