New Companion, Same Area--Hastings

Dear Family and friends
 this week has been really  good elder on Bach got transferred to Omaha in the van Chanel Ward and I got elder dallimore  I replaced him when I went to Grand Island and so we know a lot of the same people and it's really been a lot of fun. So this week I was really great Elder Dallimore gave a talk and it was really good we also had a really cool miracle with one of our potentials as well now investigators her name's Julie so she's been sick a lot lately with cancer and so she was found by missionaries about 6 months ago but she moved to live with her parents so that she could have helped but then she moved back and we just had a really cool experience with her yesterday so we decided






to finally go see her after a while and she was home and she needed help with her washer and dryer so we helped out with that and and she's just told us the story about how about right before she got cancer she just wanted to give all her wheel to God and she said she so excited to start meeting with us and we are excited to work with her and we also found a couple potential things are just really looking up here in Hastings and we're really excited we also went to Red Cloud this week and went to go see one of our investigators and found out that she was all stressed but now she's a little bit better so we're going to try to work with her this week and so we're really excited yeah I really like the elder dallimore we've been having a lot of fun and it's just been great and I'm excited to keep working with him to work hard here in Hastings I hope you guys have a great rest of your week and let me know anything cool that happened.  I love you all

snow/winter doesn't stop a baptism :)

 dear your family and friends
 so this week was a really good week I got to go to Josh's baptism which was awesome I was really excited for that and I got to be a witness at his baptism so that was awesome and it was so great to see him and really to see that he had a testimony of Joseph Smith like that made me really happy and it was just really awesome that was on Thursday and two that was awesome we also did service for sister Boughton one of our investigators and she came to church this week which was really awesome and we're going to keep on working with her she's been working with the missionaries for about 10 years so it's been a long road but seems like she's coming closer and closer.
 and then we also had a dinner with the Martin kids and had a lesson that went really well they're really excited to keep working with us and we found out that elder omBach is leaving we don't know where or who I'm getting so weird said to see what happens and he's been Hastings for a while so he's sad but happy to leave. 
 and then we had a really fun District meeting and so this is all the Peterson's last transfer he was my last companion and so we usually call it when someone's in there last transfer there dying and so you'll really enjoy the pictures there



pretty funny and then we also have been working with James Anderson and he is doing really well and we got back in contact with him and we're going to try to read the scriptures with him every other day and it also snowed again on Saturday so we are pretty much inside all day and we went a little stir crazy but it was good and we had seven investigators at church so that was awesome it so great to have pretty much all of our investigators at church it was sweet well I hope you guys had a great week let me know about it and I love you all

End of March--April played a Prank

Dear family and friends 
 so this week was so good I love General Conference.The announcement of changing elders quorum and high priest to combine together to be one elder's quorum was it an amazing idea and it will be really good for branches and it will be really good for the Hastings Ward here and yeah I'm really excited for it. and so this week we had exchanges and I went with elder wall and that was lots of fun we talked a lot and I have these two foam swords and I gave him one and I knighted him with it and then he killed me so that was fun he loves fencing and so we had a lot of fun with that and we fought like all night with the swords so it was awesome and then on April 1st we had a big surprise here it snowed about 4 inches and and so there's a video that I'll send with this but it was crazy it was like Mother Nature is trying to pull an  April Fools prank on us so we went to the Clements for General Conference on Sunday and that was really fun and they're really nice and we decorated eggs with the kids and it was just awesome I just love being here in Hastings and also love being on my mission I just wanted to share with you guys just a little bit about what I liked about General Conference the main thing that I really liked was the Solemn assembly was so sweet and how all the Apostles really talked about it and focused on it and so it just was really amazing and also I just love the different talks about missionary work and really just being prepared for the second coming and also just being the best we can be now but I hope you guys had a wonderful conference let me know what you liked about it and I will email you back about what I thought. I hope you guys have a great rest of your week and I love you all
