Hey everybody! This week was pretty fun! Don't have much time to email, so these are just the interesting parts. We had interviews with President Hughes this week which is always a great time! They went really long, but then we went out to eat at Steak and Shake with the other elders in our district and then exchanged companions that night. I came to Liberty with Elder Mabey and during our exchange we went and did service at the senior center like we usually do. We also had four scheduled appointments that all fell through that day. On Friday night we had a branch social where Elder Godfrey and I were the judges for the chili! That was super fun. There was also a talent show where both Elder Godfrey and I signed up for. He played guitar and after him I played the piano and sang... at the same time!That was pretty exciting, first time I've ever done that.Elder Godfrey and I have been sort of racing to see who can finish the new Saints book first. Let me tell you that that is a REALLY good book. It explains a bunch of the early true history of the church in an engaging way. Besides these we just tracted, taught, studied, ate, slept, cried, drove, prayed, showered, and cubed. Everything is all good in the Russell Springs hood. (I didn't actually cry by the way). I love you all! Hope you have a great week!
