Hey family!
This week was
really hectic, but still great! I got a package from my cousin, Tami Adams
which had a bunch of Canadian candy in it – it was the best. THANK YOU Tami!
Tuesday I
went to a meeting for all the trainers which was good - I learned a lot. Elder
Jackson left for Port Antonio on Tuesday as well so I went into a trio with the
zone leaders.
Wednesday was a lot of fun. We went to
Old Harbor and surprise dropped in on Elder Palmer's district meeting.
Elders Graham & Christensen |
Transfers
were Thursday. I received (…received?? What, did
he come DHL?? Sorry, I just thought that expression was so strange – not sure
if it’s Jamaican or Cody!) Elder Christensen, from Gilbert, AZ. He
is awesome. The first day he was with me, he would just walk right up to people
and talk about the gospel. He is fearless which influences me to be more
fearless as well.
Saturday was
interesting. While playing soccer in the morning, I planted my foot weird
and kinda minorly hyper-extended my knee and twisted my ankle. Lucky for me,
Elder Gardner knew a lot of places we were gonna go that day so he went with
Elder Christensen for most of the day while I went in the truck with Elder
Biddulph. Also that morning I took some Ibuprofen to slow the pain but I
completely forgot to eat anything and so what happened next was....projectile
vomit haha but I felt better after
that (bless this
boy’s attitude… I have never followed the words projectile vomit with “haha”).
Elder Graham, Sister Murdock, Elder Christensen |
Sister
Murdock got baptized Sunday morning which was awesome! She wanted me to
confirm her in Sacrament meeting so I did. And then right after that, the
bishop asked this other little kid named Prince who was baptized on Saturday
who he wanted to confirm him and he also said, "Elder Graham." So I
got to confirm two people at Sacrament meeting yesterday. Lots of fun.
The work is
moving here in Spanish Town. I'm excited to see what Elder Christensen and I
can do here! Talk to you more next week!
Love you
guys!
Elder Graham
And uh, Mom, the
picture you put up of "Ribena" is actually a picture of sorrel haha.

I thought the internet was 100% accurate…
Ribena... For real this time |
