My birthday
was good. It feels really weird that I am in my twenties now it is so crazy. No!
My companion is super cool. He isn’t trunky at all. He is a super good
missionary. The investigators are doing OK, we only have two that are showing
any kind of progression. One came to church but we are having a hard time
meeting with him and getting him to come back to church. The other we just
barely started working with. He is super cool. One thing that I learned today
that is super cool, like mind blowing, is in D&C 131 towards the end. So cool, I like stuff like that.

It always
seems to rain on Sunday here. We were biking around on Sunday and we started to
talk to a guy and he gave us each a tie. This random guy just offers us a tie.
It was really weird but I got a palm tree tie now. We found out that the Pensacola
elders are being taken out. So Elder Christensen
is going home and I am being transferred. So don’t send stuff to me right know. There
are definitely a lot of people who don’t have the right idea about what we believe.
Just in this transfer we have had two people
tell us that we are not Christian. And everyone wants to bash with us.
Man I will
miss the beach. You should plan the next one so that I can come still. I will
have to get rid of my farmers tan. I even have a tan line on my neck where my
collar goes. The temple in cedar will be so awesome.

I am in
Cairo, Georgia. My new companion is Elder McEwan. He is from Bountiful Utah. He
goes home in 3 months. It has been a crazy few days. So last week I had to go
to the dentist because one of my fillings was loose and when they were looking
around the filling popped out. They set me up with another appointment that day
and I got it fixed. It is crazy to think that I hit my year mark next week. It
has gone by fast and slow at the same time. Day by day it is slow but looking
back it has gone by super-fast. So Cairo is a branch and there were only like
ten people there. And on Wednesday they asked me to give a talk on Sunday, only
a few days away. It was super stressful but it went well. Cairo is a small town
and we also have an even smaller town that is also in our area and there we
have the entire county. So we live in the boonies. But is should be fun.
