Training v. 2.0: B-Burg

February 4, 2019

Happy transfer everyone!


Another transfer is over, but it's been a pretty good one! I have been called to train again here in Brandenburg! I'm excited for it! Especially with all the cool things that have been happening in this area recently. We just had two sweet lessons with member referrals that both accepted baptismal dates and they're already coming to church and have friends in the ward, so I'm super stoked for them! It's going to be great! One of them is named Patrick, he's about my age and he's the boyfriend of one of the members that lives on fort knox and he's super cool! The other one's name is Gary and he is one of Ted's friends who is a recent convert himself! We also have a great ward mission leader named brother Aliki and they are just killing it! We were also able to have a lesson with Tawnya and her fiance the other day with someone who is temporarily home from his mission, so that was super cool too! I don't know why but the Lord seems to blessing this area greatly! Hopefully I don't mess it up with my newborn son next transfer lol! nah, I'm sure it'll be fine!


On Monday we had district P day and played ultimate frisbee inside the gym at Etown! That was surprisingly a lot more fun than I thought it would be, Ultimate frisbee is just the greatest thing since sliced bread. Then we played Phi Lam Toe. It's pretty much giant tic tac toe with weights and you're on teams and have to run to the board and put them down then tag your teammate in to run and put another one down. It was super fun! Elder Stevenson also made us waffles. great P day all around 10/10 would do again. Then on Thursday we helped someone move off fort knox and we did some other missionary things throughout the week. We gotta drive up to Louisville tomorrow morning for transfer. I'm pretty excited but also slightly stressed lol. Anyshways, I love you all! Hope all is well! See you in a 9 1/2 months!


love,
