 Well. It doesn't feel like I've been here for 2 transfers. 3 months. There's no way. It has just flown by. I really don't know what to think. Well, I guess I'm moving out!
 How's your week been though? Anything fun and awesome? Stuff is starting to cool off a little. How about your end? I promise when the leaves are all a billion different colors, I'll get some pictures out! Sorry, I've been slacking in that area!
 I'd just like to say that I know prayer works! I've said it before and I'll testify again! Asking our Heavenly Father to help us grow in attributes or asking to help us have a better attitude, He will help! Heavenly Father loves us and knows what we need! I've recently prayed
to have more patience, for Heavenly Father to help me have patience, and he has. He will always answer prayers. Even if it's not in the way we ask! I know this is true. I know the Book of Mormon is true, and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints is true! In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
 See you later! I'll email you from somewhere new next week!

This was a gift from one of the members children. I'd say they know our missionary! :0)
 How is everyone doing? I'm doing pretty well! This week has been a normal week of knocking doors and waiting for the snow to come! Anything interesting happening in your week? Anything fun coming up?
 We're just have normal missionary things planned for this week! Trying to talk to people and trying to teach people! Of course we're hoping to help people with service and such! Splitting wood time! 

 Hope everyone is doing well! Don't have much this week, I guess I never really have that much to tell you. Anyways, hope you have a wonderful week! I'm doing fine and having a great time! We're in the midst of preparing the area to receive a set of sister missionaries, so who knows what the future will bring for the Cornish ward!
 Have a great week everyone!

 Um. There's no way. 11 months. In one month I'll have been on my mission for 1 year. Yikes. Anyways, how is everyone doing? I'm doing well and I'm enjoying the time I've been serving here! This has been great so far! Some of the leaves are turning already! Woah! Hold up its still summer!
 Anything cool planned for the upcoming week? How is everyone doing? Excited with getting school rolling again for family? Or are you  kind of bummed?
 I just want to bear my testimony about prayer and how Heavenly Father knows what we need and how we need help when we ask for it. Whether it's just guidance or we need help from him in various other ways. I know he is there and listening for us! I say that in the name of Jesus Christ amen!
 Hope everyone has an awesome day!

 Alright! Hey everyone! How are you? I'm doing pretty well! How was your week? Mine was pretty good! Pretty much a normal missionary week for me! Knocking doors and trying to teach people! The work is picking up here! A guy came up to us at church and told us he wanted to be baptized! Pretty awesome!
 We had a pretty awesome testimony meeting. The spirit was quite powerful. I know that the power of a testimony of the restored gospel is amazingly powerful. I know the church is true and the Book of Mormon is the word of God and a powerful and miraculous testament of
our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. And in the name of Jesus Christ, amen.

  My week has been pretty good, nothing really that big has happened. Oh wait! Yeah it has! We are teaching two new people here in the Cornish area! Wooh! It's great! How has your week been? Anything awesome? The two people we are teaching invited us in and fed us and everything. They talked with sister missionaries in Sweden! They are awesome! That was awesome! So cool! Hope everyone is doing well!

He finally got to try lobster
  Hey everyone! How was your week? Been awesome? Anything super cool? We had a thunderstorm here last night. That was awesome! Haven't seen one for a very long time. First one since I've been in New England! Pretty crazy. Lightning all over the place. It was so cool.
  My new companion is Elder Reed, another Idahoan. Seems I'm getting a lot of these Elders. Anyways, this week was a pretty normal week for me. Knocking doors and working. So that was good. Any new things happening?
  I haven't got much to say this week, just wanting to testify of this quote from President Uchtdorf. "Our destiny is not determined by the number of times we stumble but by the number of times we rise up, dust ourselves off, and move forward." I know this is true. Courage and strength comes from being able to move forward no matter what. In one
of the Rocky movies he says it pretty well. Can't remember the exact quote, but, something along the lines of, "It's not about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward". It's amazing and I know that by using the atonement in our lives it
truly allows us to move forward. Not matter what trials come our way, we pick up and move forward. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

  Well, this week was fun! How was yours? Mines been hot and humid! I had exchanges, worked for a couple days with another elder, and some service other the weekend. Pretty awesome. Had some members have us over for dinner, and we had 'beef' stew. Only in New England would they have stew/soup in the summer. So, once we had finished eating, Brother Thibodeau, asked us to guess what we had eaten, so I guessed Beef and so did my companion. Then he asked us, "you ready for this?" Then he paused as we waited, " that was bear." We flipped. That was way cool! Bear tastes pretty good!
  Then on Saturday we went to a ward service project in which we cut up this giant maple tree. So, we decided to maneuver some of them so the chainsaw could cut them so we didn't have too. So took a couple of us to lean a few of them where we needed them. Needless to say, I gained a nickname of the Ogre as a description for me because I was lifting some of them. Anyways I thought it would make a funny title to the email! So there you go!
  Those were the highlights of my week! How was yours? Enjoying the summer while it lasts? Hope everyone is doing okay! I know the church is true. Have an amazing week everyone!
