Hello people of the email list! This is your host, Elder Reynolds at the time of this going out, it is not my pday. But to the convienience of myself and of others I decided to write it on sunday night anyway. Your welcome. My pday is actually on Thursday because we get the opportunity to go to the temple! So they have to change our pday so it makes sense with that schedule. and I have absolutely no idea why I started the email like that. But here is the highlights of the week!  President Interviews! Every Transfer we have interviews with president Weekes just to see how everything is going and to see if he can do anything to help us out. Anyways it went pretty well! I recieved a lot of cool insight about how I can have better personal studies. Before I was just straight up reading from the Book of Mormon for a half hour and then the New Testament for a half hour. They suggested we split it up for 10-15 min sections. Like read the book of Mormon for 10 min then the New testament fo...

Hello people of the email list! I hope you are all doing well! I hope you all had an amazing week and I hope you have an amazing Thanksgiving as well! This week was pretty eventful to say the least! We had zone conference which is pretty sick! We talked a lot about the importance of having and keeping our covenants. I really did learn a ton about some of the covenants that I have made. It was also super fun to see some of my long lost friends from good old Klamath Falls. I love zone conferences! They are my absolute favorite! Anyways, now for the highlights! FIVE CROWNS We got to go play five crowns with some people one of the evenings. It was these nice older people who absolutely smoked Elder Larsen and I in Five Crowns! I feel like I am at least mediocre at the game at least when I play with my family and such but it was ridiculous how much this guy named Bob beat us. I did have one awesome hand where I had 6 wilds! It was pretty neat. I went out first turn and Bob ended up getting ...

I Am Pretty Much A Powerlifter!

Well hello people of the email list! I hope you are all doing well! I had an insane week this week!  BLESSING! On monday we were given a referral from the sisters in Salt Lake City asking if we could go give this lady a blessing. She was in the hospital and they did not know how long she had left. So we gave her a blessing  of comfort. I love giving blessings. I feel like I am so in tune with the spirit but it is so nerve wracking at the same time. A perfect Combination if you ask me. POWERLIFTER! Alright so there is this inactive member in our area that we wanted to go visit and see what is up and why she hasent been back to church in the last little while! We learned later that her husband is a WORLD CHAMPION powerlifter! He had so many different trophies in his garage/gym that it was ridiculous! He holds a bunch of records for people in the age group 60-70. So us being us, we asked him if we could work out with him! So Sam (That is his name) said that his trainee Derek...

Holy crap guys. An absolute ton has happened since last email. Some of you know this, some of you dont, but I got transfered over to the Central point area. But my ward is in Medford. I know it is confusing to me too. So all day I got to pack and pack and pack some more. I felt like I had plenty of room but nope I did not. It was kind of a disaster but I guess what is done is done. On the way to Central point we got to drive through the snow like the whole way there. It was a 3 hour drive and it ended up being a 5 hour drive so I am fortunate I am able to drive in the snow between my many times going up in the mountain. Elder Green and Walker got into a wreck on the way up. Yes they are ok but it is because Elder Walker is from Southern Cali where it never snows and Elder Green is from Mississippi and so he couldnt do any better. Now a little bit about Central Point/Medford/whereever the heck I am. It is about the same size as St. George but bigger because it is like 2 different cities...
