Hello friends and family The last 2 weeks have been a great experience with 13 good days and 1 hot one. it is an amazing time to be alive in this country of Cambodia. I see the rest of my brethren floundering as wet season rages, but as for us in the (relatively) dry battambang, we get to enjoy autumn winds and milder temperatures so thats a great contrast to my adventure here in the peak hot season. In the last month we've got a branch president called, and more people coming every week. Yesterday we hit 59 people attending sacrament! A new record, mainly due to a family that is helping people come to church by piling them into meat carts attached to Honda scooters. If there is a will there is a way. Some won't look at the snake on the stick to be healed, and others are willing to drive hours just to come to church every week. They shall have their reward. Its just super amazing to be with these wonderful people, to hear their stories and be their fr...
Things might be a little out of order because I've been drafting this for 9 weeks . Well I got transferred out of tmall khoule! It was a short 2 transfers and i did some really good farm work. Lots of planting seeds, and watering and weeding. I left that area a good field, white and ready to harvest. Elder Willis is my replacement, we seem intertwined by fate, and he's done great work there already. All my aunties and uncles have safely entered into baptismal covenants as of a few weeks agoNow I'm Back to the city so thats great 👍. But whats really cool is I got a new bike 🏍.

A silky smooth sensation of a ride. There also was a whole mission conference because president Renlund did a mission tourl We have a new teaching friend named Monica who referred herself to the missionaries a...
Contacting tricks and tip One of my other roomates named elder jhonsen taught me the ultimate method to contacting uncle-age people on the street. It has 6 big steps. 1) approach 2) ask if we've seen eachother before 3) ask how old he is in order to get x 4) use mental divide x by aproximatly 1.35-1.73. Ex: 46-->33 and 38-->26 4.1) say he looks like that age 5) ask if he has a family 5.1) if yes say you already know because his belly is so handsom (he is not wearing a shirt) 5.2) if no his belly is too hansome for one anyway! (and he still is not wearing a shirt) 6) give him a good solid belly slap (he giggles) and then you are "in" 7 [optional]) call him handsom again I was a little skepticle about the effectiveness of this method, but elder jhonson assured me of its potency. And so when i saw an uncle hangin out all alone on a park bench I knew I had to try it.... and it works garuntee...
