February 21, 2017

Hi Mom!!!

So I’m staying in Weatherly. Elder Matthews is going to Prattville. I’m getting Elder Ratigan. Elder Matthews served with Elder Ratigan. I think he’s been out for 1 year. Apparently he’s awesome. He’s really cool. I’m scared a little to see what happens. I will miss Elder Mathews. I learned so much from him. And he’s a great person. I never hated him at all. It was just hard at times. He’s an awesome missionary.  Both zls are staying.

Elder Matthews new comp is ELDER HONN LOL!!!!!!  He’s excited to go to Prattville but sad to leave. He will probably finish his mission in Prattville he goes home in June.

I found out that Elder Butterfield is going to Tuscaloosa. How do I feel about Huntsville?  Yes we get fed every day of the week and the people are nice. But I haven’t got as close to them as those in Wetumpka.

The weather has been very nice. We haven’t been to the temple since November. idk when we will go next.

MONDAY- after we got done emailing we went and played tennis. We played a tournament with the zls. I won the first one, Elder Matthews won the other 2. When me and Elder Matthews play its awesome. After playing tennis we went and saw the Jennifer family. They aren’t that close to baptism. They didn’t like me that much at first but I started opening up to them and I think they're liking me. They told Elder Matthews that I was following this blindly.  Then we went to the store and then we came home for the night.
TUESDAY-  HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! (AKA HAPPY SINGLE AWARENESS DAY! LOL) This morning we tried to go see this guy Byron but he wasn't home again. So we went to the store and got some things and then we came home for lunch.  We did our comp study and then we saw Breanna and talked with her about the temple and then we went and tried to find people but once again nobody. So we went to our dinner appointment and they had Bojangles. (a fried chicken place)  We tried to see some less actives but we only saw one and she was very nice, hasn’t been to church in the last 3 months. So after that we tried to see this family but they weren’t home so we decided to go to Walmart and walk around since it was Valentine’s Day. That was the day.
WEDNESDAY- Today was zone training. So we had it in the morning and I saw some of the people that I knew. We were trained on things such as the Book of Mormon and how to manage stress. So after the training we went to chick fil a and had some GREAT food. Then we went home and tried to see Byron, but of course he wasn’t home. So we went tracting over there but no luck so we went and tried to see Carrie. She wanted a Book of Mormon, but when we got to the door she had to owe the apartment complex 2000 dollars so we think she left. So then we went to our dinner appointment and had, guess what........ Papa Murphys pizza. The pizzas were all meat and Hawaiian.  It was great and then I shared the spiritual thought about family prayer. How if we pray as a family for missionary experiences they could happen. They gave us some people to go see also which was fantastic and then we went and saw a less active and then came home.
THURSDAY- This morning me and Elder Matthews did weekly planning and just had some fun with it by telling funny stories. Then we had lunch and then we tried to go see less actives for 3 hours but we only saw one. Then we went home and did comp study and had a great one. Then we went tracting and found nobody. One guy Damned Elder Matthews at his door step but Elder Matthews said “are you asking for forgiveness for you damning me at your door step?” and the guy is like yes will you forgive me? And Matthews says “yes I will forgive you because I’m Christlike.” After that me and him were laughing. Then we went to dinner at zaxbys with some members and then we tried to see this guy Donnie and taught him the restoration and then we went to talk with our ward mission leader and then came in for the night.
FRIDAY- This morning we finished weekly planning and then we had comp study and then we had lunch and then went to Interviews with our mission president. Me and him had a good talk.   He loves the work I’m doing. Just that we will be split up.  And then we left and went back to the zls apartment and then they dropped us off back home. then we tried to tract. Didn’t work. So we asked for a ride for our dinner appointment and he calls us and cusses us out. He was mean, but he got over it. It’s complicated. He’s just crazy  Then we went to the dinner appointment and had fish curry. After the appointment Elder Matthews told me that I looked like I was going to throw up. I didn’t think it was bad but I guess I looked like that. Lol. Then we tried to see the Foils family but they weren't home. That was the day.
SATURDAY- So we actually did service for the first time this transfer. We went and helped this guy move from the Byrd Springs apartment to a weatherly apartment and it lasted till about 12. Then we went to pizza hut for lunch and then we went home and did our studies and then we took a stress free nap. After that we got up and went tracting. That sucked again ugh. Then we tried to see a family but they weren’t home so we went to our dinner appointment and had hamburgers and then we shared the Gospel with them. After that we had comp study and then we got our transfer calls. Elder Matthews is going to Prattville and I’m staying here and getting a guy named Elder Ratigan. That was the day.
SUNDAY- We had church and both me and Elder Matthews had to bear our testimonies. After church we went home and had lunch and went and saw the Foils family for about 3 hours just talking with them. They had a little camp fire going. I also played bball with the dad and son. They’re really good at it lol. Then we came home and had dinner at 8 and called it a night. Slow day.
MONDAY- HAPPY PRESIDENTS DAY!!! In the morning we went to the store so that Elder Matthews could get some stuff and then we came home and did our studies and had lunch then we went and he said goodbye to Breanna and Michelle. Then we went and helped this member move some wood and furniture and then she gave us 20 dollars. The couple was older and what’s funny is that they kept calling me the teddy bear. Lol. Then we left went and talked with the Foils family and then rode our bikes as fast as we could over to our dinner appointment. We had sloppy joes and potatoes. Then we left and went and saw some members and then we came home.
TUESDAY- Today we got up and cleaned the apartment and Elder Matthews finished packing and now we are at the church emailing. We are gonna go get lunch and probably play tennis later. We have a meal appointment tonight with some members and then we are going on splits with the Elder Quorum and the High Priest Quorum. It’s fun to go on splits if you have people to see. Lol

THERES MY WEEK!!!! HERES SOME PICS!  My cameras screen is broke so I hope these are good. Two of the pictures talk about the Webbs who owned that building.  They were in Nauvoo in 1832.

No really big spiritual experiences to share really. I’ve felt the spirit more this week though.
Look up M.O.M by the Nashville tribute band.

I’m gonna talk to a member tonight and see if she can be the 2nd sister Underwood texter. Lol This member is awesome.

I just found out that the San Diego Chargers are now the Los Angeles Chargers.  They moved.

Tell Tyler he should play jr jazz, I did. He just needs practice like soccer.  I LOVE THE PICS YOU SENT. IT’S SCARY TO SEE ASH DRIVING. Don’t let her wreak the car mom!

I can’t wait for tomorrow’s transfers.  I’m scared but excited.
I always remember that yall love me the most. That is soo sweet that Tyler and Ashlyn pray for me each night!!  I pray for yall as well!!!!

LOVE YOU FOREVER!
Elder Webb
