Letter from Tacoma #100: September 25, 2017

WOOOOWWW! I've sent home one hundred letters already. That's crazy!

This week was pretty good. I've been feeling a lot better lately, and so I've been able to work more than I did last week. I was actually able to work three full days without having to rest! Granted they weren't back-to-back, but at least that means I'm getting better.

We've been focusing on getting some new investigators as a district, since none of us have found any new investigators this transfer. So, we came up with a fun competition: Whoever found a new investigator first before Sunday gets to silly string the rest of the district! And two days later, Olympia 4th elders found a new investigator! ... but that also means I'll have to buy silly string later today.

Willy's doing pretty good. Although he's been out of town in Idaho all week, and he still hasn't gotten back yet. But since he's been gone, he hasn't smoked or had coffee the whole time! So when he gets back, I think he'll be completely ready to get baptized!

Umm... I don't really have anything other than that. Not too much happened this week.
Here's a pic of me with Scow!

Today our zone has plans to take a tour of the capitol building, so I'm looking forward to that.

Thanks for reading!

Letter from Tacoma #62: January 2, 2017

Hey Everybody! I'm finally  in  the new area... well, technically it's two areas. We cover both the Silverdale 1st and Brownsville wards. It's made work a bit interesting as I'm trying to figure out which investigators and members are  from  which wards. Oh yeah, and it's still freezing cold up here. Hopefully it goes away by the time February comes. 'Till then I'll just have to bundle up. Monday: I packed up all  of  my stuff  in  Ocean Shores, made all the preparations for transfers, and sent off the package home with the stuff I don't need right now. By the way, has that package arrived yet? I hope it didn't get lost  in  the mail. That would stink if it did! Tuesday: Transfer Day! We left at about 10 to drive to Olympia to meet up with other missionaries going to Tacoma for transfers. Elder Devenberg picked up his new companion there, and since we had time to kill before we had to go to Tacoma, we had lunch at 5 Guys. Afterwards, I s...
