<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">What a Shake up </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The Final Countdown just got a MAJOR shake up....</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I'll explain more in a bit ;)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1349973022" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Thursday</span></span>:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">SO wow <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1349973023" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Thursday</span></span> feels like an ETTTTERnity ago. For real tho. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">anyway <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1349973024" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Thursday</span></span> we has our last weekly planning session for this transfer. Hard to believe starting next Week I'll be on my last planner... Have I really been in Ohio for 2 years! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">#nottrunky</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so actually before Weekly Planning we went to work at the Daily Bread again and we were going to stay and work on the Sleeping Bag Project again (its insane thinking we did that last MONTH) but unfortunately they had to cancel it so we just went home and weekly planned. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Then Bro Stanley picked us up so we could see a Self Referral named Sabrina. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Sabrina is AWESOME, She told us her story of finding the Church when we got there so I'[ll sum it up.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">She was using her phone and over and over the Mormon.org ads kept popping up on all the sites she visited. this kept happening for about a week or so till finally She tapped it and called the Sisters. She got a hold of a sister in the Visitor's center in LONDON ENGLAND (So jelly) who told her all about The Book of Mormon. She immediately asked for one and asked to know where are church building was at. at this point The Sister Missionary had sent us the referral and we called her to set up a time and place. Fast forward back to <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1349973025" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Thursday</span></span>. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">We took Brother Stanley with us and she was so excited to meet us and accept a Book of Mormon and accepted our invitation to Baptism! oh and she's coming to church next week. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">People be awesome</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">After Sabrina we saw Maxine who from hard work and diligent saving has proven to Ohioans that YOU CAN GET A CAR IN THIS STATE....</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and she was super excited about it too :)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">On to <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1349973026" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Friday</span></span> (obviously this is gonna be another novel :P)</span></div>

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we kicked off the morning after studies by going to help Brother Baber again moving around stuff in his house and at his departed (dead... past... what would be best here? no clue) mothers house along side the Zone leaders and some missionaries they were on exchanges with. We all pitched in and after finishing Brother Baber treated us to Golden Corral for lunch :)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Then we had to work on the Progress Record (and next week I'll be starting My Plan....)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">before doing some finding since we got canceled on by Eddie due to Bedbugs (yeah I ain't messin' with those things) after Finding we had some Dinner and called it a night </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">We had our usual morning routine before Brother Kelly Picked us up and we went and saw Brother Sig Miller again (aka almost 100) as well as Sister Hampton and a few others </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">that night we had Dinner once again from Anthony and once again it was the BOMB </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and that ended the night.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

The rest of church was pretty much same ol' same ol' but since it was 5th <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1349973033" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Sunday</span></span> we had our big combined meeting and talked about the Gospel and using technology appropriately </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">or as a missionary basically not at all lol</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we did some walk and talk finding on our way to see Brother Baber for dinner and then heading home in time for call ins and leadership calls...</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so in order for you to understand this madness you need to understand a few things </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">First: Lima ward is HUGE like literally and I mean literally it's 140 square miles and it was split between 3 areas one of which was a biking area that only covered about 20 square miles leaving 60 square miles for the other 2 areas</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Second: these 3 areas had 3 apartments starting with Delphos you moved west 20 mins and hit Lima bike's apartment in Lima and then continuing west yet another 20 mins you'll reach the Sisters Apartment in Bluffton </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">oh and to reach the edge of the border on either extreme you have to go from the apartments out in the respective direction another 30 mins </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and that's not counting the vertical travel as well in these MASSIVE areas</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">OK so now visualizing this all let me explain as best I can what is happening for my final transfer</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-President Brown calls</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-Elder Worthington talks to President first</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-Elder Worthington was released and is no longer District leader </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-President asks to talk to me</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-Me mentally: (flippin called it)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-President: "Elder Bone, I'm calling you to be District leader of the Lima District."</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-Me: "Yes President"</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-President: "however some things are of neccesity changing here in the Lima ward"</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-Me: cautiously "like?"</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-President: "well, The Delphos Apartment is being closed (i.e. the Zone leaders) and they will be moving into the Lima Bike apartment" </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-Me: "ok"</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-President: "The sisters are being taken out of Lima and you'll be taking there car and Apartment and Area. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-Me Mentally: (<wbr></wbr>YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE<wbr></wbr>EEEEEEEEEEES) </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">-Me Actually: "Ok President"</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so at first didn't seem too bad but it got worse</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Elder Alder who was one of the Zone leaders is going home so I knew at least one of the Zone leaders was changing </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Nope </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">President is OPENING SHOTGUNING 2 new Zone Leaders and I'll be OPENING SHOTGUNNING our area with a brand new comp</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">this is MADNESS<br />(NO... This is SPARTTTAAAAAA!!!!)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">But the week isn't over yet! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1349973034" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Monday</span></span>:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so at district meeting we were all trying to figure out what to do with this absolute craziness</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">basically I got flooded with all the information from all the district and I was like halp!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but I am trying to have faith that this will all work out </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">that night we got more "information" that really just confused the tar out of all of us because Elder Gledhill </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">yeah Elder Gledhill from Medina is now the AP Gledhill weird</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">anyway Elder Gledhill told the ZL's that the new Zl's were going to live in Blufton (far east area) and work in the delphos area (far west area) and that I was to stay in the Lima Bike Apartment (central) and work in Blufton (far east area)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">at which point we told them that is a TERRIBLE idea since that would make the ZL's and Myself needlessly commute for 20-30mins every day just to get into our respective areas</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so hopefully our advice makes it to President Brown so that doesn't happen </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but regardless</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I AM SHOTGUNNING A WHOLE DISTRICT<br />and I only have 6 weeks left</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">this is gonna be a bumpy ride! </span></div>

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">man Ok lets start from Wednesday right about the time I sent my last email</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">(feels like a month ago with all the stuff that fit in between!)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">So Preparation day we all finished emailing and then we drove up to Findlay Ohio to meet up with the Zone for Steak and Shake (man I am gonna miss that place when I go home) </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">anyway we all meet up and have some lunch before going to this warehouse off the main road. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we walk in and this super nice lady is like "you all need to sign the 'it's not our fault if you die' disclosure" and we are all like "Elder Fransen what is this place?!" because up to this point he had kept us in the dark... </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">about Glow-in-the-Dark Dodge-ball!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so we got to play dodge-ball and, like always, cuz I can juke and jive all day I was last man standing 3 times....</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but since I can't hit the broadside of a barn my team lost those times XD</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">that was our first hour of play, the second was spent playing soccer. but since the entire field was enclosed by a net the ball never really went out...</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I think we *might* have gotten just a *bit* too competitive at that part.... </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but what else are you to do when you have 5 high-school/college level players in the zone..</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">by the end of it we all drove home happily exhausted. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we finished off the night with some street contacting at the square</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Thursday:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I told you it was a busy week</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">granted Thursday was probably the slowest day just cuz of weekly planning that takes up most of it because I still don't know the area super well yet</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">that evening we were with Brother Stanley who went teaching a Returning Member with us.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Friday:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">SO I had my Second to last interview with President Brown. which went well, lots of laughter and lots of president Brown telling me I was going home soon and me telling him that I'm the last batch of missionaries that's been on there mission longer than he's been (by like 4 days but if twins can argue over 4 mins I can argue over 4 days XD)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but the day however didn't really start there </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">It started out with us being picked up by the St. Mary's elders and them driving us up to Findlay's chapel at like <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1349972991" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">11 am</span></span> cuz our usual ride (the Zone leaders) were already there to set up for the interviews</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">well we got there at like 11 and our district didn't have interviews till <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1349972992" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">2:30</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so if you do the math that is approximately a bunch of time to kill</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so we did some studies and had lunch and worked on the Progress record till Finally we had our interviews and our district meeting that I DIDN'T have to lead! (#districtmonkey)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">(knowing my luck I'll get called the last transfer just to spite me XD)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">after our district finished we went to dinner at Culver's </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Like I didn't even know Ohio had those </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">still as good as I remember it from CO tho</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we drove home from there and it was like 6 or 7 so we just kinda did some contacting at the street square till nightfall </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">all and all a good day</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Saturday:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Saturday morning was pretty uneventful but the afternoon is when things got fun</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Apparently there is this super nice guy that lives in Columbus but comes up to Lima on occasion to play his church's organ. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">he also likes to take Mormon Missionaries out to lunch when he does come up to Lima so that's how I got to meet Mike from the Christian Science church</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">for those of you who like me never heard of the Christian science church think if Joseph Smith was Female, founded the church in 1860 and instead of the restoration of all things she just had a realization that Christ's miracles were accomplished by God's version of Science</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so like its cool and all but seems a bit </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">*puts on Sunglasses*</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">"Derivative" </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">(maybe 3 of you will get that reference) </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but he took us to Lunch at a nice Tex-Mex place and Menchies for Fro-yo </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">which is pretty awesome</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but Mike is working on there version of The Joseph Smith Papers for there founder so he knows a lot about both church's histories</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">after lunch we walked to an older member of the ward's home </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Brother Sig Miller will be turning 99 some time this year so yeah definitely been around the block a bit XD</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we just visited with him for a little bit before walking home so we could bike to Anthony's place for dinner </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Quick background on Anthony. a couple of days before this we were biking around town and we got a call from a weird number (we still haven't figured out the story behind the old owner of the phone number. basically it must have been someone else's number that the missionaries had saved and then had there number switched... </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">regardless Anthony was a less active member that had pretty much vanished because he was at a care center for the last 7 months but he reached out to us out of the blue and offered us dinner </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">pretty cool guy :)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">after Anthony's we headed home.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Sunday:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">We had ward council and then Sacrament where I was reminded that I only have 2 more Fast and Testimony meetings till I go HOME</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">crazy how time flies </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">oh and like everybody loves President Uchtdorf so at least all us crazy Mormons are united on that front</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">(bout died laughing because google corrected Uchtdorf to Hasselhoff and I almost left it XD) </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Gospel Principles was on the Atonement which was fitting for the Beginning of Easter Week</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Elder's Quorum was Elders Quorum </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">it was on Daughters of our Heavenly Father</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">you do the math XD </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">it was entertaining if not enlightening </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">after that we went with Bro Bowen (second Councilor) and met with another Returning Member who unfortunately keeps her home at somewhere in the range of 90 degrees so in about 10 seconds both myself and Brother Bowen were fighting the sandman. some how Elder Worthington was immune to this problem but Bro. Bowen and I had a good laugh about it after the fact XD</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">pretty much the rest of the day was spent finding sooooo </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Monday: </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we are almost halfway done I promise XD </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Monday kicked off with District meeting yet again like not too long ago we had one... XD </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">it was lots of fun, one of the sisters gave a great discussion on the Easter Week and how it lead up to the moments in the Garden of Gethsemane and the Garden Tomb that meant that we are all free</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">if you haven't watched the #BecauseHeLives video in a while do so it's amazing</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Elder Worthington then gave a pretty good discussion on an MTC talk about seeing the End from the Beginning</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">It made me think a lot about Ends and Beginnings </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I am almost to the end but at the same time it will soon be the beginning of a new chapter or even a new book (judging by the long-winded nature of these emails possibly a spin-off series is required) of this portion of my Life</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I've had a lot of Reflection on life lately </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">missions do that to a person</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">After we had district meeting we went to the Lima Care Center with the Zone Leaders and helped out there for a bit</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Elder Alder and I went ahead and cleaned out there bird cage and Elder Frandsen and Worthington did some Cleanup on the outside </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">service is bomb</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">anyway after that we helped out the Ward Mission Leader by doing his Lawn and then he helped us out by having Missionary Correlation that evening </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so win win </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Tuesday:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we started off after studies to go to Daily Bread again. I really enjoy helping out there it's lots of fun and a good way to just help </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I've really come to understand more fully King Benjamin's Council:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"> "When you are in the service of your fellow man ye are only in the service of your God"</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">after that we met up with Eddie who's a Self-Referral. Elder Worthington knew him but I hadn't got to meet him till now but we had a great time talking about the Plan of Salvation and what it means to him. we also got to share a Book of Mormon with His friend and taught the Restoration to him. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">a couple reschedules later and we headed home for the night </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">on our way back home we were biking by and some guy yelled at us to stop</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so we did and got to meet Gavin and taught him the restoration </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and he's coming to church this week!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">then we got home and relaxed for the evening </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">after all we needed plenty of rest for tomorrow's.....</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">\</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">TEMPLE TRIP!!!!!!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and not just any temple trip </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">a district temple trip... </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">to the Indianapolis Indiana Temple! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so since Lima district is so far West we get to actually pick which of the temples we want to go to and since we had a very nice member taking us we all decided on the Indianapolis temple.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">But man did Satan try to stop that trip! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we had just crossed the state border and we hit a construction zone and... </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">BAM! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">out goes one of the tires </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we limped to the nearest exit and inspected the damage </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">it was a really REALLY flat tire so we busted out the spare donut and made our way quickly to the nearest Goodyear</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">thankfully they were super nice and got us in quick.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we sure looked like a strange sight though with four 20 somethings in suites and ties and 3 sisters in dresses and skirts </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but after that detour we got back on the road (A different road) and bee-lined for the temple </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">as we were pulling in to the parking lot they called to see if they should hold the session so we ran in to get there in the nick of time</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I had forgotten how much I missed the Temple </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we are so lucky to have them all over the place in Utah </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">after our session and a million photos of the grounds... "do not appear as a tourist.." </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">eh we tried... sorta</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we had lunch at a nice place across the road before beginning our LONG ride back home </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">where we got to stop at the Indiana and Ohio state signs before finishing off our journey to good ol' lima </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">or so we thought because half way home we had to turn back to Van wert where the member that took us lives and get the Zone leaders Phone </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but we still got home by <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_1349972993" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">9:30</span></span>! </span></div>

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but really that was the cap-point of a pretty good week </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">let us begin</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2128986419" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Thursday</span></span>:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The Youngstown Elders (i.e.the ZL's) went on exchanges with us in our area. I went with Elder Vaughn, crazy to think we were in the MTC together many MANY moons ago. we had a good time finding and reminiscing as we are both reaching the close of our missions. we set a bunch of return appointments and even got to teach a guy named Eric who felt he was struggling to hold to faith and then lo and behold some Mormon elders knock on his door </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">coincidence? I THINK NOT </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Oh and melissa dropped us :(</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">that was pretty much <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2128986420" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">thursday</span></span></span></div>

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we weekly planned, see every other description I've given to weekly planning </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">sums it up nicely </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we saw Bro Gould and go to Pizza Joes so that was nice </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and we saw sabbatha she's still doing great and the puppies have started getting big!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">the Sane's had us for dinner so that was also pretty fun</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2128986422" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Saturday</span></span>:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">We saw the Mcelroys and I got to help Bro. Mcelroy fix his tablet so I was happy as a clam </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">then we had a lunch with the Runyons a nice family that is kinda home-bound so we see them every once and awhile </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we also met a really nice family that let us in and we got to teach them the restoration and we get to see them again this week </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">then we had dinner with the Bishop's family and finished off the day with Bro. Dougherty</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2128986423" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Sunday</span></span>:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">We had Church,big shocker there XD </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">although these last few months church has been rather weird with Christmas and new years then having a snow cancel and stake conference it feels like I haven't even been the a whole block in a while, It was actually kinda nice </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Then we saw Sister Vandyke and the other Elders met us at our apartment for <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2128986424" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">monday's</span></span> exchange </span></div>

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">We did some finding, all those appointments we set up <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2128986426" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">on thursday</span></span> flamed us and we saw Roy Rainbow again who is doing well we are working toward a temple date for him.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">More finding with out a whole lot found :P</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_2128986427" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Tuesday</span></span>:</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The big one</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The broadcast from the Missionary Department </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">It was really actually quite instructive on how the missionary department councils with one another </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we also had some "minor" changes </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">First off</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">5 of the 9 of the key indicators have been completely dropped </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">like as in we don't track them at all anymore</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">which I think is kinda nice because the chosen indicators will hopefully focus us more on the goal of baptism not the goal of lessons</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">the second change came to daily schedule,</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">in a nutshell they moved planing to the AM and have given us way more latitude on comp study and other activities as well as </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">THEY HAVE GRACED US WITH 2 ADDITIONAL HOURS OF PREPARATION DAY! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so that's really nice </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">the change to Preperation day is because they want us to realize that as we go home we can stick to a shortened personal study each day and they really want us to establish those kinds of habits now :)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">that's all for today folks </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Thanks for reading </span></div>

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">still weird </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">anyway</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we started by weekly planning together to try and find more people to teach </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">result? </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">pretty much my note section for weekly planning has a 3d image of the word FIND so</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">yeah still the struggle </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">that evening we met up with Elder Brinkerhoff, Elder Van Orden and Brother Gould and had Pizza (courtesy of Brother Gould) before taking the LONG dive to the west lake Mission home...</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Man can you believe it was almost 2 years ago I was last in the mission home? I sure can't </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">(not to mention It was remodeled since I was there last so the basement isn't a cement dungeon anymore which is nice)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I spent the evening catching up with Elder Koppenhafer who was there as well as a few others, It was really cool to see how much we have all changed, I imagined that is how it will be the last night in the mission home times 10 as I get to see all the Elders I came out with (seeing as those darn sisters already skipped town XD)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Friday Morning we got to go to mission conference with Elder Gay and he talked about so much especially when it comes to how we view our own eternal Progression and how we can love the people by Loving the Savior, also how we need to work with members to get anything to really work at all</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">then we drove home a long long drive home </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Saturday we helped out the Sane Family by attempting to change the Gas Pump in a 90's Ford Expedition</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I now know the pain of using a 13mm socket on a swivel with 10in extension with a 1/4 inch breaker bar underneath a car with about 3 to 4 inches of clearance. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">after about 3 hours of this we got the tank down only to find out some genius used pressure fittings instead of a simple hose clamp to connect to the tank so we had to temporarily abandon that project for the day, </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Then we saw Brother Dougherty again and talked to him for a bit before having to make it home before<span class="aBn" data-term="goog_934587129" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">9:30</span></span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_934587130" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Sunday</span></span> </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I felt alllllll the pain for satudays work and the sitting that was done all friday </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but it was still Church and not just any Church</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">STAKE CONFERENCE!!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we mormons love our conferences don't we XD</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but yeah Youngstown stake conference meant I got to see all my Peeps from Lisbon Ward WAAAAY back when.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Then we had a quick visit with Sister Vandyke and headed home for Call-ins </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_934587131" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Monday</span></span> we had district meeting, It went well, probably one of my better discussions all things considered</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">We then saw Roy and read for a bit with him before rounding off the evening with A dinner at the Rivera's who are awesome but Brother Rivera wasn't home so we had to eat in the garage on the Pingpong table, thankfully it was still 50 odd degrees out so it wasn't too bad :)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span class="aBn" data-term="goog_934587132" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">Tuesday</span></span> after seeing Brother Root (and leaving with much food and treats) we returned to the Expedition to only confirm it's demise as we had to re-bolt the tank and the Shield back to the frame so it could be towed then the Lawson's treated us to Lasagna and pie </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and that takes me to now </span></div>

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>

Alternate reality gaming. and thinking that's a cool idea that would never take off....</span></span><br />
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"> People</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The future is here </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and it's pretty awesome!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I also remember when I started my mission as a wee lad in Lisbon Ohio just 19 years of age thinking that 2017 would never come, that I was to be eternally stuck in Ohio as a missionary. Then came 2016 and all the good and bad with it from Elder Fifield to Elder Whipple and now it feels as though it's all come full circle as i'm back only an area away from where it all began</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">life is funny like that </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">This week has been really weird with the whole Preparation day is now on wednesday change so I guess I'll start at Wednesday, because I have been heavily requested to add more details to these letters again so...</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Wednesday started out like any other.. just another day that we drove and drove and drove some more. although I suppose wednesday really started at 12-2 when Elder Nelson kept us both up because he procrastinated packing.. :/ and he has A LOT of stuff. anyway we packed up the car at about 8 and drove to the ZL's Apartment in Youngstown where we moved all of Elder Nelson's stuff out of the Rouge and into the Truck and then we all loaded up into the truck and drove to cleveland for a total of about 3 hours of drive time now :P</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">when we got there Elder Nelson and I said our goodbyes and he got in the car with Elder Butterfield to go to Wadsworth... and I then proceeded to chase them as they left the parking lot so I could grab the keys to the car that Elder Nelson still had XD everyone was laughing in the mission parking lot where all the transfers take place. good thing i'm in shape!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I then met Elder Lau (pronounced like loud but without the 'D" at the end) and he's originally from Hong Kong so that's pretty awesome and he speaks English pretty fluently besides the thick accent. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I got to hug Elder Ogle goodbye as he finished his mission and now is living life up back in shecaaago XD so that was cool, (side note, I love how google spell check actually recognizes that as chicago)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">OH and I met Sister Page who apparently is related to me though Tomas Independence Page and is also serving here in the OCM! so that was Kinda Cool</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Then we drove back home all 3 hours of it before Elder Lau and I had to go... to.... brain come on I know I left last week's planner at home.... BROTHER DOUGherty's house thats right ... thanks brain you da best</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">anyway we visited with Brother Dougherty and headed home had dinner with mushroom and veggie soup (didn't have a whole lot to work with but Elder lau liked it alot so it works)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Thursday we weekly planned an I was so excited to actually get things going again here! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we did a lot of contacting that night though so that was fun as well</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Sunday, Church was weird again this week with only having Sacrament for the second time in a row, I'd never thought I'd say this but I MISS Third Hour! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">after shortened church we headed out and did some contacting, and some more contacting, and then our appointment flamed so yet more finding! yep that sums up new year's day </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Monday was honestly a bit of a drag as we all were expecting to have P-day but then remembered that's not till wednesday now but I'm sure we will all get adjusted to that sooner rather than later. so we spent the day just trying to find people and meet Less actives </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Tuesday we saw Sister Hall, a really nice lady in a care center just down the street from us, we just talked to her about Alma the younger and how we all like he did Look to Christ and live (#<wbr></wbr>EMCYC20whateveryearitwasweused<wbr></wbr>thatasthethemebutIdorememberth<wbr></wbr>ebookmarkandthescripture) (<--- this, this is why I don't do hashtags)<br />we also saw Roy Rainbow again after struggling to see him with all the holiday madness he had at work </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">then we saw the Lawsons who are still awesome!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">the temperature cold </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">the work feels so stalemated</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Your Son neglected by those who claim otherwise by the crosses the've collected</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we walk and talk </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">to Your children on the street </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">as we try to gather in Thy lost sheep</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">but this world grows dark and dim</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">as Satan spreads the lie of sin</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I've asked for Strength </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and Hope</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and Love</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and a soul to free like He did with the caged doves</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">But as I labor diligently </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I find that a change has occurred in me </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">my prayer for strength received response </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">by the miles journeyed long </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">the plea for hope </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">finally seen in a rare glimpse into eternity</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The call for love</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">or charity</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">felt now, I have, the love of Thee</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I feel it so strong and pure for all Thy children </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">even those that mock and scorn</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Try as I might I have not found the last </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">A caged Dove to show that Thou hast forgiven the past </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">But as I ponder Quietly</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I wonder </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">if that Dove</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">might just be Me</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"> </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">

<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The leaves have changed here in Ohio<br /><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and thanksgiving for this year is in order<br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I am so thankful for this unique chance to speak of the one that spoke the greatest words of compassion </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">of thanks</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">of hope </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">of the chance of the brightest future<br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Jesus the Christ</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">the Hope for us all </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">for almost 2 years </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I've sought to teach others of the Hope That God has given us all<br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">He sent his Son</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">to save us all<br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">To Him we are all indebted</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and all he asks</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">is<br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">"come, Follow me"</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">So give thanks this Thanksgiving</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">for without Him all hope would be lost<br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I love you all back home</span></div>

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I don't know what to do or think about </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I'm trying to stay focused on the work but literally everyone brings up the election</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">aparently we are to swear in a man that has less qualifications than a piece of cheese </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and is so blatently sexist and racist it's not even funny</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">like</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I don't even know what happened</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">the work has been moving forward as we finally have some investigators to work with and they are progressing decently</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">so</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">that's nice</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Love you all</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">stay safe!</span></div>

<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">we had President Interviews and that thankfully helped with some of the difficulties I've been struggling with in this area</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">he provided some solutions and so far they are helping so that's good</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">sorry I'm on a weird laptop so typing is really draining on my hands right now so this might be a brief letter</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">I've been rereading Jesus the Christ and I've been pondering the words of the saviors parables</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">it was such a radically different way to teach simple truths. In those parables are layers that each reveal a different depth and direction without losing the simplicity of the gospel though</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">they make me look at life differently </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">and see the hand of our great creator just a little more clearly</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">(that or my mind is so prodigiously empty that nothing can stop me from seeing it)</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">still a geek and always will be </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Love ya all</span></div>
