What a change it has been since last week I've talked to y'all. I'm now serving in Fleming Island 1st ward, and might I just say, its been VERY different from Gainesville. No college campus to go by, no more ghettos, and no more friends and families I love. I don't know a living soul out here. It's hard going from an area that you know everyone and everything about it. But in the end, change is good. My companion Elder J. Johnson is pretty sweet! We get along great! We are very different from each other that's for sure, but we both want to work hard and expect mighty miracles in this area. Missionaries have talked bad about this area and how hard it is here. The ward is very small and not very many baptisms. He is very new to this area and his last companion he hated. They got little to no work done so it feels like we are white washing this area. That means starting from scratch. We have already seen great miracles come by faith and hope for this area to BOOM! We have taught more lessons and received more new investigators this week, than they have in the last few months. We are only getting started! Next week I can't wait to tell you more. I'm very happy and very excited for the future here.
Love y'all! Have a fabulous week!
