Hey hey everyone!! Hope everyone is having fun with there spring break!  My week has been full of emotions and staying sups busy and what not but I'll do a lil day by day action  Tuesday  I literally can't remember what we did but it was a super busy day and then at 9pm I found out I was leaving the best ward ever and going up to flipping Eugene ughhhh but yeah it was so sad to see that I wanted to stay another but ik i need to be up here in Eugene for a reason so looking forward to it!  Elder Pugmire is gonna be staying (my lil trainee/ my son) I know for a fact he will take care of the ward and help it continue to grow he got an Elder who came out on the mission with me Elder Scott and he's a big time homie so I'm glad my son got a good missionary!!    Wednesday  It was a hussle trying to pack and saying bye to everyone but we were able to go say bye to some of my most favorite people here in Grant Pass like the Southwicks and Sister Pearson and...

Its been 2 weeks since I sent an email soooo theres gonna be a day by day but some days will be longer than others hahah  Hope everyone had a good week!! Tuesday 5th March  Had a busy morning calling members and weekly planning! In the evening we had dinner with the Conrads and it was fire as always later that night we had the first restoration devotional in Grant Pass and holy cow it was such a great turnout!!  The Restoration Devotional is given by President Cornelius and the 6 assistants basically give a lesson/lecture on the Restoration of the Church, and wow they did such a fire job! Definitely very powerful and the focus is to have members invite their non-member friends and a place where the missionaries can bring their investigators to learn more and to feel the Spirit! Other zones in the mission only had like 90 people total and Grants Pass alone had like 237!! making big moves!! Wednesday 6th March  We were able to fill out Darren's baptismal form...

What is uppppppp this week had one of the best endings ever with Darren's baptism happening on the 2nd of March and were able to be in the circle of him receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost in church!! Such a good way to end the week!  Welp ima go day by day again but the main highlight was that at the top so if you don't wanna read the rest of it ur chillin haha Tuesday  We had our final lesson with Darren talking to him more about baptism and the doctrine behind it!! And it seemed to all make sense so that was hype!! Wednesday  We had the AAPS staying at our house Tuesday night and guess what we did..... we played ball at 6 am so that was fun and we had a returning member come ball up with us and he was crazy on the court so that was a good start and then we had exchanges/supercharging, it may sound bad in all the past emails of me going on exchanges with AAPS but..... let's just say they have favorites in the mission and me and Elder Pugmire are one of there favorites ...
