Sup party people!
So it has been quite the eventful month. Sorry it has been so long I need to repent but here we go. So this month I got called as a district leader, I was asked to train a brand new missionary again, and me and him both got moved to an area where neither of us have been before so that has been great!
I am now in Buckeye, Arizona now and it is a party. I swear in this town there are more cows than people, and I am not even joking. I am very much not a country like person and it is the wildest thing, I went from biking around the city in suburban neighborhoods to now driving down dirt roads in a truck. And I don't know what to do with myself, but it's fine I swear...
My new companion is Elder Young, and he is great! He is from Utah... kinda he moved around a whole bunch like me growing up. But we have had a good time together. He played the absolute coolest instrument in high school, he played what's called the Euphonium, and its basically a mini tuba. And I was like that is the sickest name ever!
But me and Elder Young already have some good stories. There was one day when we were out knocking doors, where we walked up to this door and knocked, as one does. But this lady swung open the door and had a very grumpy look on her face might I add. She looks at us and says read the doormat, and I look down and read the doormat out loud and it says "GO AWAY '' and we look back at her and she just nods at us and then slams the door in our face. And I was just like Oh my goodness Elder Young that was AWESOME! As we were walking away I just said "Jesus loves her so much just think of that." It was fantastic.
But now as a district leader I am over 6 other missionaries, plus me and my companion. So it has been a little stressful for me not gonna lie, but I can definitely say it has been worth it. I work more closely with all of the missionaries in my district and it has been so awesome to be a little part of their lives, and a huge testimony to me that Heavenly Father calls people to the work to use their experiences to lift one another, not just to be there.
But that is about it from me, I do not feel like labeling all the photos this week so I am just going to dump them all and wish you luck. Hope you all have a wonderful new year, and as always stay safe out there!
