Friends and family I miss you all.

Send me a picture of what you are doing right now.

If you don't I will virtually punch you in the throat.

So anyways I'm out here baptizing a buttload of people yardy know. Anna is on date, which is baller, and I'm trying to get Tom in the font but he is a stubborn old man. I really like him though. 

So a couple notable events that have taken place are: 

I said a 36 minute long prayer to get out of weekly planing. 

I recited the first vision to a kid named Caleb that wants to get baptized.

Fell asleep at least 7 times a day. 

Made an incredible BLT

Had a mission-wide zoom about general conference.

Almost finished the book of mormon in a month 

Looked for Bigfoot with brother Honeycutt.

Here is the backstop behind that last one^^

So brother Honeycutt is like 70 years old and he is a very outdoorsy type of man. He makes hawk and owl boxes, makes bows out of hickory, he smokes on a pipe, tries to shoot squirrels with a pellet gun, and also tries to catch Bigfoot. In his backyard which is basically like THE WOODS pretty much. So yeah the sisters wanted to talk to sister Honeycutt but brother Honeycutt can be distracting sometimes so we needed to get him out of their house. So this is what ended up happening. In the end we found Bigfoot and brought him home and cooked him up and it was pretty good. 

Brother Honeycutt is a very weird man. He's kind not all there but while we were tromping through the brush, he was all of the sudden like "AHHH CATCHME" And he fell backwards and I had to catch him. And he said something about how he wasn't as athletic as he used to be. After that he fell down like 5 more times and I thought we were lost but he eventually got us back to this fence that was like 5 feet high so we got over pretty good but brother Honeycutt got stuck with one leg over the fence so I just like lifted him off the fence and like set him down on the path. And we walked home. So if I had a chance to do that again I would probably definitely not so yeah. 

Also like I said I've been doing a little reading in the good 'ol book of mormon and here's something I found. In 3rd Nephi 10 we see the phrase "like a hen gathered her chick's 4 times within 4 verses. I thought a lot about what that means! What does Jesus Christ gathering you under his wing mean to you?

 Also happy birthday to my mom dresden Bush she is the best mommy alive I don't care what yall say

Thanks you for all your support 

Love, Elder b

I am writing you an email to tell you my address is 111 henley place Smithfield NC 27577, just in case you want to send me a bunch of good treats and toasters and stuff. Anyways things are going great here in Smithfield. Me and my companion have found so many people that don't want to have Jesus in their lives! There's only so many people in Smithfield so maybe we'll find all the bad people first, and then all the good people next. So yeah NC is a good place but I sweat all the time. I am always a sweaty man. Sweating in the gym and sweating in the chapel. The humidity makes me wet and sweaty more than I care to admit. Also I feel like a receptionist for a doctor or something. I'm always making calls and texting people and setting up appointments. And then people here absolutely loooooove to talk so I've heard a buttload of stories about drugs and preachers and anything else that's troubling them.  OK cool so now for some bible time. So here's something interesting, and I know I said bible time but INTHEBOOKOFMORMONNNN there's this verse, in Alma 32:32 where it talks about how to know if a seed of faith/knowledge is good, it grows. "32 Therefore, if a seed groweth it is good, but if it groweth not, behold it is not good, therefore it is cast away" so comparing that to ourselves, if we grow its good. A lot of people like to look back and be like "ugh cringe" when they see something in their past, like Bru that means you've grown, and it means you're good. According to Alma's knowledge. So yeah next time you see a cringey thing you did just know that you're probably doing something cringey right now that future you will be disgusting by. Hope that helps. OK so here are some pictures that will probably make your eyes bleed:  1: comp drip 2: we picked up trash in the wally world parking lot 3: Janice!! 4: gluv 5: "call me apple chancery cuz I work with the font" 6: animal fact

 My friends hello. I've seen miracles happen here in NC. It's really easy to get lost in reading emails so I'll try to make this brief. Elder Low and I are about to baptize nations so be ready. Today I went and balled up at the church. Dunking on sinners yessir. We also taught a lesson to Bryan who's getting dunked (baptized) on the 13 of Nov. So that's definitely a win. Also I heard things back home are going a little crazy. I hope everyone is doing OK. Anyways I have a southern accent now and I'm always eating chicken. There's a billion chicken places to eat. I guess it's just what grows here. 

Yeah so I'm definitely having a rough boy time getting up on time even though it's been like a month I'm still a tired man all the time, but the Lord definitely strengthens me and gives me comfort in times of need. I also taught a man who thinks democrats are the AntiChrist so yeah that wasn't very cash money of him.

I love Jesus and I love the Book of Mormon
