Then there were two - Week 10 - March 8, 2021

Hey everyone! Hope y'all have had a great week, this week was pretty slow for us. This week we didn't have many lessons. A few of the people that we teach and are progressing the most were out of town and a lot are going out of town this week because it is spring break. So we had transfers on Thursday and Elder Hungerford left us. I miss him so much, he is so funny but is the hardest worker. He went up to Garden Ridge which is about 40 minutes away from castle hills. So we had a couple lessons this week with some of our friends and they went really well. 

We had members in all of our lessons and they helped bear their testimony and taught a little bit. Patriarch Parsons took us out to eat on Thursday night at Whataburger and that was the first time I've been there. I love him so much he is the nicest person and so fun to talk to. On Saturday we went and dropped off a Book of Mormon up by Trinity University and that part of town is insanely rich we saw a Lamborghini and Ferrari, so that was super cool. Also we always see this Lamborghini driving by our apartment so that's cool. Oh I just remembered something that I've noticed of Texans that live by us. These people do not care about their house they only care about their cars. We drive by the most beat down houses and they have super nice cars like Mercedes or Range Rover. One time there was a Lamborghini in someones drive way haha. Ya nothing crazy happened this week.

Yesterday I was reading in a book called Teaching of Prophets and this one was on President Hinckley. I was just reading and reading and something that has been on my mind is becoming a better missionary. I want to be just like Jesus. I wan't to have the Christlike attributes that he did. So I remember writing in my study journal something like I want to give my whole self to God and let him change me and work on me so I can be. Something I thought about before my mission is I don't want to come back weird. As I've been out my opinion on that has changed. I want to come back super weird because that means that you've changed. There is a lot of things that have changed about me while I've been out on a mission and a lot more things I want to change. I don't know where I was going with this, but I just want y'all to know what I'm thinking and I want to be as honest as I can in these emails. So I love y'all and see ya later
