Yeauuuh.... a lady told me I look like him this week💪 but enough about me.

Jk its all about me, when we were driving over from bend we saw a little bit of snow on the ground( Prez & Sis Parker were driving for some reason) and they pulled over so we could get a picture with the snow and I accidentally nailed president with a snow ball, so hopefully I dont get sent home.

I met my new comp Elder De Vore. I absolutely love him, we have a lot of fun but we also work hard and have found some really cool people to teach since I've got here!

We met a young man named Jeagar, and he came to church on sunday! It was so hype and we invited him to get baptized but he said not yet..so that was sad but hes still down to learn and come to church so the spirit will get him eventually.

Our ward is super fun, Usually im the one with the rizz towards old ladies but Elder De Vore has been killing it with the ladies in our ward( I think the average age in this ward is 88) im kinda disappointed in myself so I will work on that. But anyways my point about the ward i was trying to say was, this is a very wealthy area. I thought bend was rich but wow its crazy over here. But I really like old people so im having a great time.

We are teaching The Cortez family and they are awesome, they want their kids to grow up with good friends and people to look up to so we committed them to coming to church this week. I did the can lesson with them and kinda broke my finger.

Yesterday I went on an exchange with Elder Lee, he is deaf. So I wanted to put the two cripples together, but yeah we had a great time. You would think a deaf missionary wouldn't be that great but hes such a good missionary it's incredible! We somehow found two different people through a ring doorbell. Which was new I've never done that before. 

But the People here in west Salem are sooo prepared its great, im very excited for this transfer. 

lil spiritual nug🫴 i got an awesome study journal with all the general conference talks from this last conference, and I've been reading lots of the talks. And the talk by Elder Cook was really good talking about the hastening of the Lord's work.

And with the recent announcement about girls being able to leave at 18 is so cool! (Hailey Cough cough) but ive definitely seen in the past few months that with everything going on inour world people are starting to flock back to churches just like the early days of our church! 

And just like what president Monson said, its time for members and missionaries to come together! You guys can all still be missionaries even in utah! But yeah the work is definitely hastening on both sides! So share the testimony you have!
