TRANSFERS and barbecue

I think I forgot to send this last week but this was a fun experience meeting Tom




So the fun and exciting news is what's happening for transfers. Since this is the seventh transfer it seems like it should be getting old. Which having my life turn upside down every six weeks is getting a bit old but the news doesn't get old ;) So Elder Peterson is indeed going home with all of my other companions except Elder Blommeart and Lee :'( Speaking of Elder Lee he's now my Zone Lord :D But, I'm getting another companion that is nigh unto death. His name is Elder Wilson and he goes home in two transfers. It should be good. Also I'm becoming the Battlefords district leader. Elder Peterson keeps telling me that I'm getting important now but I'm pretty sure all that it means is that I get to call more missionaries more often :) So yeah that's fun :)


Other good and exciting news is the branch barbecue went pretty well. We had a pretty good turn out and we got a few people to it as well. It was kindof ironic because we had been inviting so many people over the past week and a half and the only two people that came was someone we met a few days before and our boss at the food bank. It was great because we texted our boss the morning of and was like hey if you can you should come to this. So about the time it started he calls us and was like "hey i'm here where are you guys?" We later found out his wife thought he was going on a drive so that their son would take a nap. Instead his son ended up running around playing soccer with the other kids there :D It was also hilarious because when it was over and he was holding his kid he was saying for his son "dad I want to be a Mormon" :) We'll see if that's the case or if he'll stay being a leader in his own church. 

Welp, the work goes on and so does life. I hope you have a great week and I'll try and enjoy "Canada day" but secretly I'll be singing in my heart "I'm proud to be 'Murican" and I'll try and celebrate the true holiday "The 4th of July" next week. Love y'all potatoes gonna potate
