This past week has been great. We got our Transfer call on Saturday
and...... I am staying here in Hudson and Elder Grimmett is going to Lake
Hamilton. Its weird because we are just switching Companions with them. Also
Elder Grimmett will be serving with my Companion that I had in the MTC. Crazy.
And I will be serving with his Companion.(my MTC companion's companion if that
makes sense) So it will be Elder Simonson and Elder Hargan. My new companion
will be the new District Leader and Elder Grimmett will be the District Leader
down there. We will be exchanging companions tomorrow.
Anyways, this week was
great. Last week, we went and hung out with our D.L. and our Z.L.'s. We went
to home depot and bought some PVC Pipe and cut them to 3 feet long and then went
to Wal-Mart and bought some nerf bullets and went to the park that we go to and
had a dart war with the PVC Pipe and the nerf darts. That was a Blast!!!!!
Things we do on a mission ;) Tuesday, we went and saw some gators and had
some great lessons with them. Wednesday, we had a great District Meeting.
Very Spiritual. Then taught some gators and had spiritual lessons with them.
Then played some Basketball. Always fun!!! Thursday, we went and saw one of
our R.C. Andromeda. She is doing great and she and her sister are moving to a
new place still within our area so that is good. Then saw some more gators and
then we had Splits that night. That went well. I went with our Ward Mission
Leader. His name is Rocky Martinez. He is a Nice guy and he is also a Broncos
fan!!!! Then Friday, did the same thing we do every day, taught some more gators
and saw some inactives. Saturday, we got the call to see who is going or
who is staying. I'm staying like I said earlier. Then the rest of the day we went
around and saw some people that Elder Grimmett wanted to say good bye to and
take pictures with them. Yesterday, we had a very spiritual fast and
testimony meeting. Then we went and had dinner with one of the members of the
bishopric. The Allens. They are a nice family. Then went and saw our other R.C.
Evan. He is doing great as well and then after we had our lesson with him, went
back to the church and saw the broadcast of the CES Fireside that was on last
night. Elder David A. Bednar talked in that fireside. I learned a lot from him
and am applying what I learned. Then Today, we are going to our D.L. and Z.L.'s
church building in Palm Harbor and having a Zone Get together to have our last
day with one of our Z.L.'s Elder Parady. He is leaving to go home this Wednesday
so that is why we are having a zone get together and we will be having lunch
there and will play some basketball.
This weeks Scripture is 1 Nephi 3:7.
Hope everything is going well for all of you guys and hope to hear from
some of you sometime in the future.
Love you all and be safe and may the Lord bless all of you.
Elder Josh Simonson
P.S. one thing we do as missionaries is we decorate our Missionary planner
with pictures and this is what mine looks like for this transfer
