Another Day of Sun - June 10, 2019

Hello my people!

It's been a great week! Transfers all went down, and ya boys in Ankeny mostly stayed the same (s/o to E. Harvath) . The only change was my boy Elder Stoddard got sent to the land of my inheritance (Quincy), and was replaced by Elder Diaz-Pacheco. Good stuff.

Things were pretty chopped up due to transfers this week, but some good stuff did happen. On the fun end, we got to go to Des Moines for p-day and said goodbye to my main man H. Fuller, s/o to him for a dank two years in Iowa.

We did have a great lesson with Jane, she's trying to stop smoking and we had a great talk about that. She and Shirley are progressing good, and we're super excited for them.

Anyway, hope y'all have a good week!

Godspeed.

My Soul Delighteth in Plainness

Hi all!  ​Well, I'm fairly certain that it's actually been a month since I got here. But everyone tells me it's only been ten days. Either way, I've loved every second of it. The MTC is definitely a sacred place, and I'm going to miss it so much when we leave.  To start off, last Sunday was probably the longest, most spiritually educational day of my entire life. The whole "day of rest" thing, does not apply here. Basically it's 18 hours of church, with about 1 hour to eat during the day. It was crazy, and I got pretty dehydrated, had a migrane, and was feeling pretty lousy. Someone mentioned around  5 o'clock  that we really aren't physically capable of doing the work we're asked to do on our missions, and that the only way we survive is through reliance on the Spirit.  That hit me pretty hard, and I started praying to be supported in my weakness, and it was crazy how fast I felt power flowing into me, the headache was still ...

Random Facebook Photos

Here are some random photos that people have posted to his mission page on Facebook.  I couldn't decide what to do with them, so I'm just going to put them here.  :) I think they may have been tired of having their picture taken? Jordan says that Elder McCain is so much like his friend Spencer, that it's eerie.   Elder Housholder and Elder Mitchell, shopping at Walmart-and maybe passing out Books of Mormon while they're at it? I think they were getting hungry here, I believe this was taken before they got dinner at Golden Corral.  Chatting with Elder McCain With Elder Mitchel again shopping at Walmart.  There's this sweet lady in their area who seems to run into them there and takes their pictures when she sees them, just to post on FB for the mom's to see their missionaries.  How sweet.  Even if it's a bit blurry, I'll take it.  :)  And at least he's smiling in this one-I think he misses acting sometimes, so he has to...

Sent to Bear Witness of that Light

Hello again!  ​Talk about a crazy week, where to begin... ​Well,  Tuesday  we had an exchange with the Zone Leaders, which was super fun, and Elder May and I found some incredible people! Hopefully they pan out, so far they haven't been super great at keeping appointments. We'll see.  Then, because we had the New Trainers Meeting in Iowa City  on Wednesday , we drove out to Kirksville to stay the night with Elder Fackrell and Elder Steed (who was in my MTC district) so we could drive up together the next morning. The meeting was awesome, it was so great to see the Elders from 44a again. We totally went to the food court and I FINALLY ATE CHICK-FIL-A  AGAIN!!!! Oh man, if things that addict you are against the Word of Wisdom, Strawberry Frosted Lemonades are definitely a sin. So good.  Then we did another exchange that night in Kirksville, came back the next day, and took off to hand out Books of Mormons. There were two stakes trying t...
