Week 93- New Trainee: Elder Brown

It is confirmed that June 19th will be Bennie's homecoming.  Our church is at 11 am! I hope you all will be able to come. 

Okay, I'm way wasted on time, and I'm letting Elder Brown use my iPad to email too, so speed round, ready go!  

Monday was good.  We had the whole sleepover thing, then we went to the Chamberlain’s for dinner!
It was super fun!  

Tuesday we a lesson with M- in the morning, then we went and took our car in for emissions check and oil change. Elder Williams packed in the meantime.  Then we had dinner with the Hale’s. I love the Hales.  Afterwards we dropped by the laundromat and saw A-. Good day!  

Wednesday morning I was terrified.  So nervous about training.  I was worried I was gonna get a really prideful, or weird or whatever new missionary, but I got Elder Brown.  Elder Brown is the coolest kid I could ever ask to train.  He's super chill, and really similar to me, and we get along super well and I love the kid to death!!  As soon as the trainees walked in the room and I saw him I knew I would get Elder Brown.  Wanna know why?  Cause his hair was awesome.  Heck yeah!  We had three lessons his first night!  Dinner with Brother Palmer, J- and A-!  

Thursday we started the 12 week training program!  It's kinda hard and a drag, but it's really good.  Then we had Trainer & Trainee meeting, then Zone District meeting, then met with Brother Spoltore, then met with A- and played basketball!!  

Friday was legit!!  We had Red Lobster for lunch because Elder Summit helped some lady move couches and it turned out she was the manager of Red Lobster so she gave him a $50 gift card!!  All four of us went.  Oh forgot to mention, Elder Vermuelen is my new roommate-- went to high school with him.  He always calls me Bennie by accident at first.  We visited with the Gourleys after that.  Then tried some tracting and got denied hardcore.  Good first experience for Elder Brown.  Hahaha.  Later we had dinner at A-'s and helped her pack up a lot of her stuff.  

Saturday we were gonna go to the temple for Elder Brown’s first time, but it was closed early!!  So we drove home and did service for Brother Palmer.  Finally we had dinner at the Cheney’s.  Last that night we did ward coordination at Brother Heath’s.  

Sunday we had church, and then we went to the Chamberlain’s and spent Easter with them!  We got
to hide the eggs for all the kids which was super exciting! 

Sorry this week is more large plates than small (Book of Mormon reference), just a crazy day.  Know I'm doing super well and I love you all!!
