Hey!
Man what a week! It was a really
good one and also a really crazy one at the same time! Well we did some really
fun stuff this week and also some cool stuff happened!
Well it is time for the transfer news
I guess.... President called and said that The Lord wants me to go down and
serve in The Beach Lake Ward in Eagle River. SO yes I am getting transferred!
As usual with transfers I am sad to leave, but also excited to see what is
going to come next in my mission! And for those who don’t know Eagle River is
like 10-15 min from Anchorage so it will be warm down there! Elder Brown will
be staying here and keeping up the good work in The Fairbanks 5th ward! There
will be more news on that in the coming week!
What else happened this week?!? Ummm
on Saturday we got to spend 4 hours in the morning doing service! Now this
wasn't just any old service! This was one of the coolest services that you
could ever imagine! So now I need you to think really hard to the beginning of
Frozen... Now what are they doing?!? You have to answer... They are harvesting
Ice! That is what we did! We harvested ice. It was just like Frozen in real
life! It was pretty cool! I know you are all jealous. It’s ok..... :)
So it has been warming up lately
which is super nice! I haven’t needed to wear a jacket all week! That is nice!
So now I don’t really have to worry about crazy Fairbanks weather! It snowed on
Saturday.... Ya it snowed a lot... It was like a spring time storm. It was
kinda crazy! I guess that is cool!
So Elder Brown and I have decided to
start having more lessons with active members about Joseph Smith! I did this
earlier in my mission and it really helps strengthen my testimony every time I
am able to share it with others! It’s kinda incredible how that works! It’s
kinda just how Faith is compared to a seed in Alma 32! I think the principle is
the same however! :) It is just awesome!
So I am honestly sad to be getting transferred,
this ward is great and I am going to miss it a ton. The people we have been
working with are doing great and I hope they will continue to do great after I
leave! I am going to miss it here, but hopefully I will be able to make it back
up here before my mission ends! That would be awesome! I love Fairbanks and all
the people here and all they have taught me! I have really grown as I have been
up here and experienced long cold and dark days. I know I was here because the
Lord wanted me to be here and now I am leaving because that is what the Lord
wants! I am Thankful to have served here!
Only 3 more months and I will be out
a year! How crazy is that!?!?!
Love
Elder Ty Nolan Blank!
