Elder Williams Mission

Hey there! This week has been a pretty busy week! We have been all over the Zone with lots of tradeoffs! So tradeoffs are when we spend the day with another companionship of missionaries and switch companions for the day. We had 4 total this week!  Tuesday I was on a tradeoff with Elder Kofford, we spent the day in Saginaw. It was awesome, I learned a lot from him and we had a lot in common.

What's up you guys! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲 It has been a crazy first week as a zone leader!  My companions name is Elder Harding. He's also from Idaho Falls like Elder Roberts was. And Elder Harding is super good!

His trainee's name is Elder Stoner hehe.  Elder Stoner is a really good kid. We also got Chick-Fil-A twice when we were down there which was nice.  We also got to meet with some members and it was really great! There have been some beautiful homes we have been in, which was very surprising, I had heard Saginaw was very ghetto. And we taught and had some great lessons! We met with a girl named Olivia who is about our age and she is so prepared! It was the most stress free lesson ever, we were with her and a member family and her boyfriend who is a member. We went over to Mount Pleasant for a day...
