Letter From Rhys - Week # 36 – Transfers! Let’s shed a little light on the Subject!


Feliz lunes from the tropical land of the Republica Dominicana!

This week is the week of Transfers, and let me tell you people the all-American Elder Wheeler has been rejected at his request for a transfer! (I didn’t actually request for one, the sentence just sounds cooler that way!)

In short, I’m staying, but my companion, Elder Walker is going to the Los Resturadores zone. I will be also receiving a new companion from I think the U.S. named Elder Rich. I’ve asked many people and no one knows who he actually is. I don’t know anything about this guy. I guess you could call him the Riddler of the mission! But I feel slightly bad for my new companion because we don’t have power in our house! YAY no lights!

To cut a long story short, we’ve been two weeks without power! Recently we learned it was because our house hasn’t had a contract for lights for almost 10 years! It’s a miracle they hadn’t cut it sooner! The mission has been working on getting our lights back so we hope to have it again really soon.

Now you know there’s been no light, I should probably share as well that after the power went out we forgot to clean out the fridge and throw out all the perishable stuff. So today, we went to clean it out and I almost threw up twice! It was a wonderful smell and full of creepy crawly white MAGGOTS! You’re welcome!

We have also been working on a deep clean of the house today to prepare for my new companion!

On the note of the missionary work, we have a few progressing investigators but a lot of them are losing interest fast. I’m hoping that with my new companion we can push this good work a long! Well, that’s all for today folks, I hope you’ve enjoyed the wonderfully gory display of my fridge and the rest of my letter, too. I’ll talk to you all next time!

Going forth with the vision of Christ and an eye of Faith,

Elder Rhys Wheeler

P.s. Mom ya lo sabe! Typos please!

Letter from Kelson - Week # 72 - Time is Money, and I'm Broke!!!

Good Morning From Sunny California!!! I must apologize in advance for the length of this letter, it seems that their ain't no rest for the wicked...and that means no rest for those trying to help the wicked either. Anyway, I am pretty wicked myself, so no self indulged pride there, just making a statement on how little time I have to write this P-Day. We have been going Mach 5 with our hair on fire since 630 this morning, last week...I think that works. It has been crazy, the weeks are blending together, my companion and I are always trying to help out the missionaries in our Zone, and we are striving to be the best Leaders possible, while helping them to aspire to be better missionaries themselves. We also are trying to see success in our own area. There is quite a lot on my plate, and I am wondering what thanksgiving is going to look like...With this much food and I am only in September. I have some super news! Arturo, the super awesome guy from Stockton that got baptiz...

Letter from Kelson #9 - I am still alive and Kicking!!!

Good Morning From Sunny California!!! CAN I GET AN AMEN!!!!!....(PLEASE PROCEED TO SHOUT OUT LOUD "AMEN", THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING). This past week was super awesome, but also challenging beyond belief. This past week was the last week of the transfer and things were going crazy. We started of the week with a full white board of people to tech and bring the Gospel to, and by Friday we had maybe 2 people left. Everyone just started dropping like flies!!! We were unable to make contact with any of them, we had people tell us that they will not be continuing to learn from us, and we also had people ignore us when we stopped by... A bit of discouragement was really hitting us hard this week. We were struggling all week to try and fill our days with things to do and people to teach. I think we went Tracting (Door knocking) for an hour or two just to see what we could find. But alas we were unsuccessful in making these things come to pass. Sorry if I just made everyone who r...
