Too Legit to Quit : January 2020

I'M SORRY I DIDN'T WRITE FOR THE HOLIDAYS. I know I'm the worst but I'll try and make it up to you.

First off, Christmas was a long long long long long week. I missed being with family a lot, but I had some cool experiences. Christmas on the mission is so different. You serve and serve and serve some more! I was so busy doing all sorts of stuff and then we sat around and did nothing on Christmas. We just stayed at a members house. THEN, we had New Years! Oh boy.. that was a treat. We heard over 7000 gunshots from our house in Shawnee that night! We tried counting all of them but there were just too many of them!

It was transfers two weeks ago so I'm now a district leader in Shepherdsville, KY! I am in a district with all super awesome sisters. I'm also follow-up training a new missionary. He seems very young so it feels like I am babysitting, no just kidding.. he's cool. His name is Elder Negus. (pronounced like vegas) He's from Bear Lake Utah! It's been a hard week, but we are trying really hard to find some new people to teach. I have a very good feeling about my new area, new responsibilities, and my new companion. I know lots of new adventures await us!

Other than that, I hope everyone is staying spiritually strong with the new Come Follow Me curriculum for the Book of Mormon. I LOVE THE BOOK OF MORMON!!! I find so much power in it and I encourage everyone to make the sacrifice of putting in the time to read it. If you do this, you will receive REVELATION! That's what my mission president said, sacrifice + obedience = revelation. Let me tell you when God is with you and is speaking to you, it's one of the most amazing experiences. Try it out and I bet you will be uplifted.

I will talk to you again soon,

Elder Greenlaw

This week was Elder Greenlaw's 1 year mark! Crazy how slow and fast time goes at the same time.
