July


From July 15, 22, and 29:

Well another week down!
This week was so fast I hardly remember what happened.  We had Interviews and Stake correlation on the same day and those were both good.  Transfer calls were on Saturday and me and Elder Scott are going to be staying here for another transfer.  This upcoming transfer we have 7 of the 11 areas training new missionaries which is gonna be awesome.  Other than that, we were able to find a lot of new people this week that we can hopefully start progressing soon.
Psalm 73:26. My flesh and my heart faileth: but God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.
Hope y’all have a good week!


Hey y'all
We had a pretty good week this week. I'm trying to remember what all happened, but it was a really weird week.
One day we spent pretty much the whole day down in Forest City moving the sisters’ apartments.  When we got to their new apartment to unload, we realized we were in for a pretty long day. It wasn’t in the best shape at all, Haha. So, we cleaned and worked on it all day, basically.
We also had our first district meeting of the transfer and I am excited for this transfer.  We have 3 greenies in our district, and 7 being trained in the zone. It will be nice to have all that greenie fire for sure! 
Other than that, we had a lot of tracting, like usual, just trying to find the elect!
Hope y’all have a great week

Tue:
Tuesday, we had MLC in Knoxville, which is always really good. Aside from like 4am wake up part... but it was a good meeting.



Thu:
We had zone conference today in Sevierville, so another long drive.  But it was good to see everyone again and cool to be back in the Sevierville building for the first time in a long time!
On Sunday we took our friend Jeff Lam, who we are teaching, to our ward’s ARP meeting and he loved it. As soon as he gets off of cigarettes, he is going to get baptized, so that’s pretty cool.
It has been another normal missionary week in the TKM. Lots of doors!  Hopefully there will be more next week!
