Hellooooo Everybody! I hope everyone is just so super happy and enjoying life!

This week was a really week good! We definitely saw some miracles. And we were able to meet a lot of new people. Bill and his family didn't come to church this week because of something. That was a bummer. But they are still on date to be baptized, so that's good. Something cool that happened with them is when we were at Bill's this last Thursday we had a member present and we had an in depth lesson about the priesthood. Bill actually let us give him a blessing at the end for comfort, counsel, and strength to overcome the word of wisdom things. It was way cool! I've definitely seen miracles happen when I've offered to give my investigators a blessing by the laying on of hands, on my mission. I testify the power of the priesthood is REAL. But ya, we had a lot of really cool and spiritual experiences this week. I'm sure you'll hear more about the peeps we met this week later on. But I love working with Elder Loumeau! He's eager to learn and ready to work! He's from San Diego and he's been out 3 months, so he's just out of training. But he's super chill and cool. I hope you guys are all doing well and hope you have a marvelous week! - Elder McGeezy

Hey Fam and Friends!

This week was good. Bill and his family came to church yesterday so that was awesome! And on Saturday they came to a BBQ at a park which was a ward activity. The ward was good about fellowshipping them. I feel really good about this family. On Wednesday is transfers and this morning we found out what's going on. My new companion is going to be someone named Elder Laumaeu. I've asked some missionaries if they know him and nobody does so I'm assuming he hasn't been out very long. But I'll let ya know next week I guess. Last P-Day we went to the coolest petting zoo ever! It was LEGIT! I fed a giraffe and a Lemur. So that was pretty neat. We also got IPads this week. They are really nice and convenient for studies. And they are nice for showing video clips as well. But, I hope all had a marvelous Father's Day! Have an awesome week! Love, - Elda McGee

Yah! this week of my mission!

June 8

Here is Kansas

Hello Family & Friends!It was a good week. We were able to find some really cool potential investigators.
Marina and Christina were baptized on Saturday which was super cool. They live with their grandma who takes care of them along with 4 of her other grandchildren. So I look up to their grandma a lot. They were the last of her grandkids to be baptized because Marina and Christina's parents didn't give Naomi (The grandma) permission for a long time. But their parents finally softened their hearts. So Naomi was crying at the baptism and gave the coolest prayer. Such a great family. I had the privilege of being able to baptize them. Yesterday, Elder Allen confirmed them in sacrament meeting. But yeah, I don't have a ton of time this week but I promise to have a good letter for ya guys next week! Love ya!

May 25th

So, I had to say good bye to Elder Potter kind of surprisingly this week. My new comp's name is elder allen. He is also from AZ.  

The best part of my week was definitely Sunday. We had 5 investigators at church. 2 of them were Cristina and Marina (the two girls on date to be baptized). So they should be getting baptized this Saturday! So exciting! I'll really be praying hard that it works out. The other three was this family that me and elder potter found and had been teaching for like 2 or 3 weeks. They are really cool and they finally came to church! I was so happy to see them there. And happy that the service went well. We had really good talks given. They seem to really be progressing and coming along. Bill, the dad of the family, will have a few Word of Wisdom things to overcome. But I KNOW that it can be done through Christ! Sunday, I also gave a blessing to a guy, named Mike whose recently come back to activity in the last 5 or 6 months to help him quit chewing tobacco. That was the first day. He was really excited and ready to quit! It was really awesome. We're going to be calling or texting him everynight to follow up about how's it going. But yeah, that's all I got for this week, and I hope everyone has an awesome week! Remember to recognize God's hand in all of your lives. Because I know he plays an active role in each one of your lives. Love you guys so much!-Elder McGeezy

Another Week

This week was alright. The kids we have on date didn't come to church and neither did the other family that we're teaching. Both of those we got very solid "yes's" to coming to church. So that was a bummer. But just gotta keep on tryin'. It'll all work out. But nothing amazing really happened this week. It rained A LOT. But we kept on working to find people who are ready to hear the restored gospel. Now that I think about it one thing cool we did is work/volunteer at this fundraiser event. It was a walk with a bunch of booths and stuff. It was for this condition called Angelman Syndrome, it's like on on the spectrum of autism. But a lot of other missionaries worked it too so it was really fun. They had this worldly music that I haven't heard in practically 9 months playing on the over-com / speakers or whatever. I couldn't help myself but dance and sing-a-long a little bit. But it's all good in the hood. I hope you guys have a great week! Love ya!
