Sorry, but I won't have any pictures this week. The computer I'm using doesn't allow me to upload anything. Anyways, How are y'all doing? I'm doing great! This week, as you can tell from the title, was fun and ridiculously fast! We were out talking to a bunch of people most of the week!

Anything awesome planned for the week? Anything new and amazing? Or is it the same old, same old. 

I'm loving it up here in Maine. The snow keeps on coming and the wind keeps on blowing, but eventually it'll all be gone. At least that is what they tell me. Even the locals say this has been a crazy winter. By now, they say the snow should be all melted and gone, but it's still here!

Anyways, I don't have any amazing or crazy stories, but I would invite y'all to look up the Nashville Tribute band. They're pretty awesome. There are a couple CDs that I have of theirs'. "The Work for Elders" and "Joseph". I guess they have a couple of new ones too, not sure where you could find them online, but they're there some where! 

That's about it! The Church is true!

See ya later!

Well, I've fallen the area of Rockland Maine. Right on the ocean! Woohoo! That is so cool! It is way fun up here! How was everyone's week? Hope y'all have been doing well! Any big plans? Anything amazing happening?

There aren't really any amazing stories this week. Hope y'all like my frozen selfie! We were walking near the coast, so I thought I'd take a selfie, then the wind hit me in the face and I thought the picture was funny so I'm sharing it with all of you!

I've had such a great time on my mission so far! It is hard, but it is way worth it! I've been only on my mission for 6 months, but it feels like so much longer and like it started yesterday. Missionary time is weird. That is really all I got! I'm sorry all these emails are short! I just never can remember anything interesting that happened over the week!

Have a good week!

I'm out of here boys and girls!!! This 6 month stretch is behind me and I'm moving on! Woohoo! Don't let that decieve you, I'm way excited about moving on, but also as many of you probably know, completely torn up about it as well. I'm so very grateful to have spent so much time at the Joseph Smith Memorial, and I'm grateful for every second of my mission so far!

This week was awesome! I met Bishop Causse, Elder Bennet, and Elder Hallstrom. It was so cool! Our meetings were great and I can't believe how awesome that all was!

How has y'alls week been? Anything amazing and exciting? Same old same old? New dog? New car? Possibly new house? Anyways, not many amazing stories from this week.

I'll leave you with this testimony though. I testify to you, that Joseph Smith was a Prophet. Called by God and foreordained to Restore the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the Earth. When I arrived here in South Royalton Vermont, it was something I believed, but not something that I knew to be true. However, I know now. Joseph Smith was a Prophet of God, and this is the only Church on the Earth with the Fulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. That testimony I leave with you, in the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ, Amen.

 

 

Quick Email for everyone! I am alive! I'm moving quickly today! Hope y'all are doing well! How was your week? Anything amazing and epic? Or is it the same old, same old. 

Not much happened this week, we were almost out of miles on our car so we did a lot of walking! No real awesome stories, but Elder Harper and I are doing our best to have fun out here when we walk for a few hours on end! 

Transfers are coming up so if you send me anything, don't be surprised if it takes a week or two to find me, I might be moved around!

Love y'all! Have a great week! 

Bye!

Holy Moly! This is just ridiculous! The speed at which the time goes on a mission is crazy! How is everyone doing? 

Let me tell you about some crazy stuff this week...

-Went on Exchanges to Middlebury, Vermont. Walking into a city was so weird after having been in the boons for 5 months. They had a grocery store on a five minute walk from their apartment! I never thought I'd be excited because of that, but I was!

-Had some fast food for the first time in several months. Also crazy. The food was there literally in seconds. Y'all don't understand how just ridiculous that is!
-Went to New York. That was interesting, like night and day compared to Vermont.
-Got a huge amount of letters from the young men and young women in the ward that was awesome! (I'm working on writing the responses!)
-It was 37 on Sunday. That was crazy. Walked around without a jacket on, man it was warm!

That pretty much sums up my week! How was your week? Anything exciting? Possibly above 70 degree weather? It felt like summer when Elder Harper and I walked out of church on Sunday. It was just barely above freezing, but it felt way warm! 

What are your plans for the week? Planning on anything amazing? That's really about all I got this week! 

I love you all and I'm so grateful for the support for you! I love being able to keep in touch!

Talk to ya next week!

Elder Adams

 

 What it looked like when he got there...

What it looks like now...

 

Woah! Everything is going by incredibly fast! How is everybody? Any new news? Anything big happening? Local sports rivalries getting even more heated? New Wal-marts?

Anyways, this week was good! It has been really cold up here! At 0 degrees. Then with the wind chill, it gets down to -20,-30, or even -40 degrees. It is quite windy and quite cold! Hope y'all are enjoying the sun and heat! We're still out there knocking doors however! We've been lucky enough to pick up some new people, that are actually interested in learning about the church! That was quite the blessing!

What do y'all have planned for this week? Got anything amazing in the works, or is it just the same old, same old? How long till the next big thing? 

Also, I wanted to share with y'all my testimony of the Prophet Joseph Smith. I recently watched the Prophet of the Restoration movie, and I can't explain the love and respect that I have to such a man as this. Joseph Smith was a Prophet. He did indeed see and speak with Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. The Book of Mormon was translated by him, by the power of God. My work here at the Joseph Smith Birthplace Memorial, in Sharon Vermont has truly helped me understand his calling. He was chosen to reestablish the Church of Jesus Christ to the World. I know that. With every fiber of my being I can stand up and say that, "Joseph Smith, was a prophet." 

I love y'all! 

Have a wonderful day!

Hey everybody! Sorry I missed a week! Our cars were grounded and we mostly missed P-day! However, this week we're also grounded currently! But we were determined to email! So, guess what. We walked. Uphill, 5 miles. In the Snow. In the Cold. Hey! It builds character, as my trainer would say. 

Well, this past couple of weeks has been good. I don't really remember much of it. Time truly does fly by on your Mission. Can't believe that tomorrow is my 5 month mark. Holy moly. Feels like yesterday I got on the plane to go to Utah! What is going on here! 

How have y'all been the past couple of weeks? Everybody been safe? Anything amazing and interesting happening soon? How is everyone's new year's resolutions going? Forgotten or still there? 

Some cool news from our Zone Meeting on Thursday is that we are having a mission wide conference! All the Missionaries in the Mission are going to meet at a Stake Center and there a couple General Authorities coming out! It is awesome! 

Oh, and by the way, if you are planning on sending letters or anything like that, address it to Elder Noah Adams. There is  another Elder Adams in this mission. So, just in case!

That's all I have! Thanks for the support and the emails!
