Transfer to London North

Well it looks like Sam and I are on the same transfer schedule! Haha so that's pretty sick! I can't believe he only has 3 left. That blows my mind. Well I'm assuming you want to know what's going down here in London. So I will be leaving Britannia and I will be going to London north! So I will still be in London just not around Hyde Park. President called me to be a zone leader with an elder named Elder T. He is a super cool guy from Viewmont! He actually knows Haden Heath hahah! So that was a cool connection. He has been out the same time as Sam pretty much so he will be going home soon. I hope he can help me figure out what the heck I'm doing because I have no idea. But it'll all work out. It'll be a great learning experience for me. So I'm stoked! Let's get errrrr done!

So this last week has been pretty good. Lots of street contacting and talking to people in the rain. It's also been a slower week especially because every single one of our friends we are teaching has gone back home for spring break so we didn't have any lessons this week. It's also tough because they are all gone for like a month or so. But I'm not worried, Elder Hinatsu is a beast and he will help them out when they get back! And guess who is replacing me here in Britannia......yes, the one and only Elder Burgess(MTC companion)! Hahahaha he's such a stud. I'm going to leave so many pranks for him in the flat it'll be legendary haha. But he will love it here and him and Elder Hinatsu are going to work super hard. They are both awesome. Well nothing else has really happened this week except we found some pretty cool new people that we will see this next week. I'm assuming you saw my picture with John Morgan haha. So we were walking down the street finding and I swear I saw him. And we both made eye contact and it was crazy! We just gave each other a big hug and chatted! It's crazy the timing too, he just walked around the corner onto exhibition road. It was so good to see a familiar face. He seems super happy.

Jacob and our neighbor John Morgan!!!


So the tube stations are like red alert so there is security everywhere now after the Brussels attack. It's pretty sketchy cus the tubes are like a no escape zone. But I think it'll all be okay. Crazy story about the 3 missionaries in Brussels though. But don't worry mom I'll be careful haha.

Well today has been super super crazy! Hahaha so we got a call from the APs at like 9:45 telling me that I have to go take a driving test for 3 hours in central London. So yaaaaaa, that was a wake up call. We got in the car and pulled out onto exhibition road and it was straight chaos. Hahahaha I was driving in central London on the wrong side of the road getting honked at and yelled at. So that was a super awesome experience. So I can now drive in the UK until August 20. So that will be sick. But wow it's a lot different but I'll figure it out! I've also been packing all day so not much has happened today. But it has been good. I'm sad to leave but I'm stoked to move too. I know the Lord needs me somewhere else! Just gonna send it!!!!

I love you guys so much. Newport looked amazing. Ben’s hair looks a lot better hahaha. Love you guys! Love you momma! Hope you had a great birthday!

No short cuts
