One Transfer Down!

Hey mom! 

I might need some winter boots soon. Everyone around here has been saying they are due for a really bad winter so that'll be fun! And I would love to get some music for me to sing! 

So it's been awhile since I last emailed and a lot has happened! 

So last Tuesday Jonny came home! That was a rough day to be honest. I really miss him but I'm glad you all get to spend some time together. That day we went to see Christian and we gave him the addiction recovery packet and he was really grateful. He is such a good guy he's just had a really rough life. We invited him to some branch activities coming up and he was excited about that! Hopefully he will get to know some people. He already met brother Franjesevic and that's good. That night we ate dinner at the Peterson's. They are such a cool family. Brother Peterson actually served his mission in Nampa Idaho so I thought that was really cool since half of my MTC district is there now! 

Last Wednesday we had district meeting in Piqua. That was good. It's fun that I get to see Elder Henrie almost once a week. We had lunch with Elder Belnap and Elder Henrie after the meeting. On our way back to Bellefontaine we saw a guy driving his lawnmower in the street pulling another lawnmower behind him... that's Ohio for ya! There is a guy in Bellefontaine that drives his lawnmower everywhere around town. I guess that's one way to get around! Later that day we taught tiffany and Bryson over Facebook. (Bryson is Elder Ames' friend if I haven't mentioned that before)

At Training with his MTC District
Thursday we mainly did service! Which is nice to be in service clothes instead of proselyting clothes haha! We did service at Habitat for Humanity and then taught a lesson to sister Achor and then we did service at the soup kitchen! So that was fun!
Sammy and Elder Henrie
Friday we contacted some former investigators none of them were really interested but that's just the way things go. And then we had weekly planning which is a long process but really helpful if we do it right! We had dinner at the Franjesevic's so that was really fun! They are such a cool family. They have 3 little kids and I gave a pass along card to Lyla and I said "do you know who that is?" And she said "no... Oh its Jesus!!" And she got so excited and it was hilarious. We taught tithing to Bryson that night and that went really well. He is so excited to get baptized and it's so cool! 

Saturday was a little rough. I got sick and I have just felt really weak since then. Nothing really happened on Saturday we did get to talk to tiffany over Facebook, we were gonna have a video chat lesson but she cancelled. She is really stressed right now but I hope we can help her out. She is really cool and we just want to help! We got to see Christian that night and he got a job so he was really excited! I am happy for him, things are starting to get better for him!

Sunday I was still sick but church was good! Sister Dolan brought her friend June to church so we got to meet her and we are actually teaching her tonight so that's really cool! 

Monday I still was not feeling good but i did my best. We contacted some former and potential investigators. We did get some one to add us on Facebook so that's good! 

Yesterday was my 2 month mark! Crazy how fast time has flown by. Honestly the past 6 weeks in the field has gone by twice as fast as the 3 weeks in the MTC haha! Yesterday was pretty good we did service for sister Achor and then we did service at the soup kitchen again! 

And then today so far I got a hair cut! So that was good. And the girl cutting my hair asked if we had multiple wives, so that was fun. I said no we don't and elder Ames said "we get that a lot" it was really funny. 

So that was my week! I'm glad you had a good week! Keep Jonny busy because I'm sure he is really bored. I love you mom thank you for everything!

Your son,
THE Elder Collier
