Transfers are tomorrow so that's kind crazy. Elder Thompson is gonna be goin sadly. I was completely expecting for me to leave but I'm staying surprisingly. So pretty bummed hes goin. My new comp will be elder Daniels. I know nothing about this man. So this'll be fun. But uhh. Yeah. This'll be my 4th transfer in Natchez. Pretty wild. We've got a few pretty cool people that we've met and we've been our lookin for inactive members and such. It's been really good. I'm not excited to have to leave eventually so. The mission has been pretty sweet. I'm a man now. Most of the time. As long as my mom says I'm handsome I think I'll be alright. Last week we went on exchanges in pineville and we was bikin. It was lit. But there was this dude who was in the military and he had some of the craziest and wack stories I done ever heard. But he was like talkin to me a lot trying to convince me to join the navy and this and that. And I was like "oh but I dont think I could ever become a navy seal." And he was like "well you already have the build for one." And that just confirmed that I'm huge. Anyways. Idk if I'll join the military but ya never know. Haha. But uhhh. Yeah. It's been pretty normal for the most part. Just southern people being wack. Like this one guy walked up to us at Walmart. Keep in mind we had just walked in and started in the closest isle which was the frozen food. But anyways. We found some meal things for like a dollar and we were like heck yeah. And this guy walked up and was like. "Man y'all need to learn how to cook." And we were like what. And he continued to tell us that we need to learn how to boil water and to buy a cookbook and to make sure that we buy a gas station cook book because they have more basic meals. "Even though I know you all went to BYU and are smart" like what. We've made quite a few things. Like he thought we couldn't boil water! Spaghetti is so easy to make and he was trying to make it sound like it was what all the pro chefs are doin. So. That's somethin. But. The Catholics still love us. The members say they love us. And the people we teach are still not tech savvy enough to reply. So overall. Pretty good. I got a whole entire boatload of pictures for yall too. Well. Idk we'll see. Alrighty. I'll try to remember to write an email next time haha. Gotta blast.

Mardi Gra Missionary?

Ps scripture time: 2 Nephi 7:11

11 Behold all ye that kindle fire, that compass yourselves about with sparks, walk in the light of your fire and in the sparks which ye have kindled. This shall ye have of mine hand—ye shall lie down in sorrow.

Now I know y'all be skipping the Isaiah chapters but they're freakin cool. I really like the way he explains things. Theres a member here who knows freakin everything I guess but hes told us how the culture was and it makes a lot more sense. Super awesome. So we gotta make our fires bright and show the world our light.
