Dear family and friends,

This week was a very eventful week! We did a lot of biking! Wow! We got a new companion on Tuesday! So we are in a trio! For two weeks! So one week is over! But we did a lot of service this week! We got acquainted! Then we went out biking a little.

Wednesday was a very eventful day out on the bikes! We were biking and trying people and talking to everyone! Then it came time for brother lowrie to come get us for dinner so we met us somewhere and we locked up our bikes and then we had dinner with the Lowries and it started to dump cats and animals! As brother lowrie said! Haha it Dumped super hard! Then we came home tried Dustin he is so funny! Then we took some cool videos of the down pour!

Thursday we we did some awesome service at the audobon! I love that place! Then we biked to town and talked with people, and set up some appointments! Then we busted it to the clevelands! I love them! They fed us dinner! They are a super awesome couple! Then we did 12 week!
And tried Jacob but he wasn't home. So we went out biking for the remainder of the night.

Friday we had district meeting! The zone leaders picked us up and took us there! So we could save miles! :) that was my last district meeting of my mission! :( it was a super sad day! Then we ate lunch with the Roarks then biked around and it dumped some serious hard rain! Wow! We got drenched! Wow! It sucked! But was a lot of fun! Then elder sherwoods bike broke! :( so we walked about 2 miles home.... Then we drove back out and walked around for the remainder of the night.

Saturday we ate at Golden Corral with the Davis's! Then we went and did service at the Salvation Army again! :) I love it there! Then we went and helped move in a new couple from Utah.

Sunday was a great day full of biking again! But first we had Church!
Great talks given! The cooleys fed us dinner! And we went out biking and we talked to this super cool cop! He was so cool! He told us if we had any problems to give him a call! Then we had a good lesson with this investigator! She is super awesome! She really has the desire to learn for herself! Then we ended the night with Dustin! :) I love our meetings with Dustin! He is so funny!

This week I really learned how Humble we must be in order to continually feel the spirit! And how much patience we need in order to get a long with our day to day dealings with those around us!

I have really enjoyed my time I have been the lords missionary! And e chance I've had to see the change this gospel makes to those we teach!
I can't believe these last two years have gone by this fast! It's super crazy! I would like to thank y'all for all of the support y'all have given me!

I have come to know for myself that the atonement of Christ makes all things possible as long as we allow it to change us into who God needs us to be! I know this is Christ's 1 and only true Church on the earth!
And that the Book of Mormon is Gods word and that as we live our lives off the principled taught in the bible and the Book of Mormon we will be able to receive all of the happiness Heavenly Father has to offer us! I know families can be together forever and that we have Gods authority restored to the earth!

I love y'all and miss y'all! I'll see y'all next week!

Love,
Elder Durfee
