Transfer 11 Week 4, February 28, 2011

Dear Family,

The Tennessee Nashville Mission is one of the trial missions using Facebook and there's about 70 or so missionaries on it now in the great TN Nashville Mission. I'm telling you all this because I'm one of those missionaries. All I ask is that you use it wisely so I may use it as effectively as I can. Thank you.

Now for the questions mom had:

Since we are going out to pick you up, how much time would you like to spend in your mission area? Are there cities you'd like to revisit? Or are there tourist places you'd really like to visit?
A couple of days, maybe. I dunno, 5/6? I'd like to go to Cookville, revisit my baby area, and perhaps on the way there or coming back visit a member or two in McMinnville. Franklin I'd like to see more of it. Dickson for sure (I want to show you where I got hurt) and I'd also like to go to Paducah (I know it wasn't really my area, but it was my zone for 4 and 1/2 months).

We are running around the ideas of going to Uncle Brent's, Nauvoo, Mt. Rushmore, and Yellowstone. However, we don't have to do all of those. We could easily do Yellowstone on a different trip since it's only a day's drive away. We could also see if the Whitehead's would like to meet us in Nauvoo. I would like to try to get to Mt. Rushmore because I don't know that we'd want to make a trip just to Mt. Rushmore. So let me know what you think you'd like to do so I can plan.
Okay, I like those, in fact I'd like to see them, we can definitely do those.

And what about the bike?
It'd be cheaper to send the bike home through the mail (UPS) than to drive it home.

And how's the work going in Franklin? Are things picking up? Are you enjoying your new companion? Are you in a good ward?
The work in Franklin is good. Slightly, things are moving faster. One of the investigators came to church and is still wanting to be baptized, she just has to work a few things out before then. Yes, Sister Turner is awesome!!!!!!! She's been out two transfers less than I have. She has an awesome testimony. The Carton Ward is good. They're so willing to help us out. They'd really like to feed us, but with the rules changing, it's a little slow with the transition.

Okay, now for this week:

We had zone conference and as always it was awesome. Only thing I didn't like about it is the fact the President reminded me that this was my last zone conference. I knew that in the back of my mind, but I didn't want to expect it, but had to when Pres. said the truth.

Well, I gotta run. I still haven't written Pres. yet so I gotta do that.
