Welp I got the news a little bit ago that I was getting transferred away to a new land.
No clue where
Just away from Roanoke rapids. Heave ho onward fellows. Anyways I need to tell you a little bit about the people that I am teaching in Roanoke Rapids.
One lady, her name is Megan, and she is a younger lady that came across an internet ad for church things. I would definitely consider it a miracle cuz she is one of the crops that needs to be harvested with the sickle thing. (For all those that are not following that's a reference to a popular missionary scripture.)
Anywhere Megan is a certified baller and although we had her on date, elder farley and I decided to take her off because she was not ready,
But she is getting more ready and I am leaving elder farley with the task to baptize her.
Another person that we are working with is wanda, and wanda is this sweet old lady that always gives us some sandwiches. We like her. She has come to church a few times and has enjoyed it. She is for sure putting a whole new meaning to the name investigator, as she is studying a boatload of information about our church.
Definitely keep wanda in your prayers or wish her luck because she recently had a close death in the family.
An honorable mention would be this cool man named Eric that me and ELDER JENSEN found (all caps because elder j is that kind of mad lad)
Speaking of mad lads Eric is a real homie ngl. He goes to a gym that some of our members go to. We gave him a book of Mormon and he seemed interested.
Ok so prayers for all of these men and women that they have strength to do what is right.
A pretty sad part of my day was saying goodbye to all these friendly faces of the Roanoke rapids and rocky Mount wards
I was able to spend some time in the sun with the one and only bert.
A cool prank that I did was make a shirt with Bert's face on it and then we wore them and went and confronted him. We also made one for him.
Shoutout to my very own old man for being behind the scenes and putting the bert shirts together. Love you pops.
Anyways needless to say my man was thrilled to have his own merch and he wore it right away. We also took some pictures with them on (attached)
Speaking of attached I am for sure gonna miss this, kind of like that one Trace Adkins song.
Here are some other dogs that I'm gonna miss
The Lewis's
Sister bert (she is cool)
Linda coburn
Sister castle or grandma castle
Sis. Harris (cuzzzz) not sure if she will ever see this but she is a sweet little lady
The Givens
Can't forget Dana and della...
The reids, (and grace)
And of course brother Strohman himself.
I just know I am missing people but no problem, I’ll just come back to rr someday.
Here's some advice to those that are ever traveling and need a cozy place to stay, probably not Roanoke rapids
BUT if you ever need a second family that will laugh with you cry with you or take you fishing, look no further then the rockfish capital of the world.
Love you all
Especially my Roanoke rapids family
Elder Bush
