Back in Garden, where I started



This week has been pretty crazy Elder Gomm got transferred on Wednesday, My new companion is Elder Murphy from Safford Arizona. He is only 5  months in his mission. Super solid missionary. we are going to get a ton done this last 4 weeks. But another Elder in the district's companion didn't get here til Sunday night, so we were in a trio all week, driving back and forth from garden and Ulysses Kansas, working both areas, they are about an hour apart. 

I love serving here so much. I love being a missionary. I watched some of my best friends is the mission go home, and not want to and say they would rather stay, and i never understood that. Its not that i necessarily wanted to go home, but i just though t i is just another stage of life and you have to accept it. But now I understand how they felt.There Nothing like doing missionary work. I see now all the things that will end forever after my mission. I'm excited to go home i guess, but I'm really going to miss all of this. I have made a lot of friends. And I make new ones every day all over the place.

 This week we saw a lot of miracles. Wayne Moore, that 20 year old guy elder Gomm and I Baptized a couple of weeks ago, went to a big meeting in dodge City night. It is a meeting for Recent Converts and Instigators in the stake. Anyways he Shared his testimony. It was awesome. He is going to be a missionary I think. He has a really strong testimony. 

I cant believe I only have 4 weeks left. 

So Elder McKellar came through Garden City with his parents and sister, and they got a hotel here. So since we were already in a trio, the other two guys went and worked in Ulysses, and i stayed in garden city for the night with Elder McKellar he stayed in our apartment over the night and we went to gym together in the morning. It was a lot of fun. Good to be with him his last couple of days. and to see his family was cool too. 

The whole mission goes to wWchita for our iPad training. We get iPads next week.
