Email - Last week in Ironbound

I'm not going to do the daily update the same this week because when I finished my weekly update after like 2 hours, it disappeared some how... I'll just talk about the best stuff from this week.  

Well last Monday on the way to the church for p day it was snowing a little bit. Just random flakes falling. Not much but it was still snow! Yes I did play a little bit of sports and I felt fine haha. I couldn't resist playing sports.  It always makes me feel so good. Since I had just gotten home from the hospital that morning, my parents sent food to my house that night. They sent me shrimp scampi, garlic bread, a big green salad with ranch, chicken tenders, fries and fried Oreos  (they were so good)!!  All the food was able to feed me for a few days after that.

We said goodbye to Elder Lelua because he leaves in like a week. He is from Samoa. 

I also made a ton of cookies to give to members since it was close to Thanksgiving! So we went to Walmart and I got some cookie mix and made a ton of cookies. All the members we gave them too loved them and they said they wanted more. 


The two Portuguese elders got a hold of my I pad and took a bunch of pictures haha. 




Well, Thanksgiving was awesome! We woke up and went to the Maple Wood chapel and played basketball with like 12 other elders and it was a blast. Then we went to a park by the river and All the missionaries from 3 zones got together and played footbal. I was QB for my team most of the game and it was so fun. 



We also gave some presents to some members and had to make wrapping paper out of magazine.




On Sunday I confirmed José Chamba and everyone said my Spanish was super good during the blessing so that made me feel pretty good. I will definitely miss the people here in Ironbound and the ward I have served in for the past 2 1/2 months! 

I was told that I'm getting transferred and my comp is staying. I will be going to Short Hills, New Jersey. Completely different than here in Ironbound. I have been serving in the poorest park of New Jersey and now I am going to the wealthiest part. 

 I did get a pretty awesome shirt and hat here tho!! 

I'm sorry that my weekly update was lame this week! Because my other one was deleted I didn't have time to type much. I love you all and next week I'll tell you about my new area and companion.



This is the new shirt and hat I got. Last pics with Elder Rios.
