Chapter 3:  The Days Turn to Months

 

Elder Weight at the Nashville, Tennessee Temple

August 17, 2015

This week has been quite the week! It started with a hike on P-day with

other Elders from Jamestown to Standing Stone State Park. Super

beautiful! I learned three things on that hike. 1. Tennessee is one of

the most beautiful states ever! 2. Hikes take longer when you get

lost... 3. Hiking makes missionaries VERY tired..... after that we

went to the Koehlers and unloaded lumber with nails in it from a truck

and cleaned horsey poo! Yay! After that long day me and Elder Richins

felt like we were going to die. 

We also went to the temple this week!

It's so cool here and it is a tiny tiny tiny temple. The church next

to it is twice as big as the temple itself! It is so beautiful there.

I hated to leave it. Apparently before I came here the county fair was

going on. The missionaries set up a booth and had people fill out a

survey and basically asked people if they wanted to know more about

the church. From this we got about 100 so now we have about 200

investigators total. We haven't been doing much tracting...The rest of

the week we have been going around and trying to see the fair

referrals. We went on a lot of exchanges and broke the record for

members present in lessons in Livingston with 17! Crazy. That's really

what we've been doing lately. 

It's a weird to think I've been out here

a month. These days really blend together. It all just feels like one

big day. I'm excited because later today I am going on a three day

exchange with the district leader up in Tompkinsville, Kentucky!

Hopefully I can find turtleman but if not I will settle for Neil. We

are trying our best out here and are hoping that everything is going

well for everybody back home. Love you guys!
