Week 4 - Yakima, WA

Hello friends and family!

It has been another great week here in Yakima, Washington! I have been learning lots and working hard. The weather has been very hot lately with highs in the 100s almost every day. 

On Tuesday I went on my first exchange with Elder Meyer. He is super awesome and taught me lots. We also got to do some service for an older couple in his ward. We just moved their stack of firewood into a shed, but it was super fun. Just a little hot haha.

Wednesday I went on another transfer, this time with Elder Pennington. Elder Pennington was super chill and we got along really well. Me and him are definitely gonna hang after the mission.

Thursday and Friday we taught a bunch of lessons. We have a lot of investigators that we just started teaching and are getting to know better. One of our investigators that we have been teaching for a little bit is actually getting baptized this upcoming Saturday! I am super excited for him! His name is Jose and he is a super cool homie. 

Saturday me and Elder Dell did some more service. We also taught a bunch more lessons. We have definitely been keeping busy, but that is how I like it. It is super rewarding helping bring people closer to Jesus Christ. It brings me a lot of joy.

Sunday was super awesome! So me and my companion are actually over two wards, a family ward called Tieton Drive, and the Yakima YSA(young single adults) ward. The talks were super great and the lessons were fire. It's kinda funny being in the YSA ward because everyone is pretty much my age. Two of the investigators we are bringing to the YSA are only 19, which is super cool because they are way easier to teach then adults haha. 

Missionary work is definitely hard, tiring work. It is so awesome though because I know I am helping other people and bringing them closer to Jesus Christ. This gives me lots of joy! Being a missionary is definitely the best thing ever!

Sincerely,

Elder Adams

Pictures: no pictures this week cause I didn't take any... I'll try and take some next week.
