Elder Pack

  Hey everyone! Things are going good here. The trio that I'm in is a lot of fun.  Not much that is really notable had happened. I've eaten a lot of good food recently. We are teaching some good people who want to learn more about the gospel. The weather here is crazy as always.  I should have a few more pictures than normal. Hopefully, I'm gonna start taking more soon. Sorry for the short email but today is pretty busy! Thanks for all your support! See ya! Elder Pack PS: There is a family that feeds them about once a week.  Last week, the family was busy and so they bought them take-out instead.  The missionaries got Asian food and, for some reason, they bought Ethan a "family size" entree of a shrimp dish.  Ethan said it was so much food!  He poured it all into a huge serving bowl, ate what he wanted, then filled a normal take-out container with the leftovers.  So they fed him for 2 days with that one meal!  He said it was really yummy...

Hey everyone! Big week for me. Because of an early transfer somewhere else in the mission, one of the elders in the young single adult branch had to fill in there. So now my companion and I are with the remaining elder (Elder Carden), and all 3 of us are covering our normal ward and the YSA branch. So, we are pretty busy.  On the upside, we can go without ties because  YSA   elders are allowed to. When we are in our normal area, we still have to wear ties though. So, we moved to the  YSA   leader's apartment so we have a laundry machine. It has been pretty fun so far but we are going to be really busy, which is good. Other than that, things are pretty normal. We finally had a lesson with Lynne, who is our person on date. She is pretty cool. Also, please keep praying for Shawn up in Riverton. He is pretty close to baptism. Thanks  for all of your support! You're all  awesome ! See ya! Elder Pack Elders Mills, Carden, and Pack PS:  Ethan and Elder M...

 Here are a couple of Facebook posts Ethan made in the past week. Ethan and his companions are responsible for posting to the Church of Jesus Christ in Greeley Facebook page each Saturday.

  Hey everyone! This week was a pretty good one. Right now we're struggling to get in contact with everyone we're teaching, but it's coming slowly. We'll see what we're going to do about all that. Some cool things that happened this week: I ate authentic ramen that a member made us along with Philly cheesesteaks, looked at some murals downtown, went to zone conference in Fort Collins and got to see the temple, move a few tons of gravel, and spent some time in the apartment that I stayed my first night in 9 months ago. So it has been a pretty good week. And on Friday, Elder Soares is going to visit the mission virtually so I've been studying a bunch of his talks. It's going to be great.  Thanks  for all of your support! Hope things are going good for you all. I think you're all great. See ya! Elder Pack PS:  Ethan said that Colorado is quite different from Wyoming.  They only have half the ward attending Sacrament meeting each week (they rotate) and the o...

Hey everyone! Greeley is pretty great so far. The members here help out with missionary work, our apartment is nice, and we have a Walmart in our area haha. I, unfortunately, haven't gotten to meet really any of the people we're teaching yet, but hopefully, that changes this week. My new companion, Elder Mills, is pretty cool. He's from Fresno and his original assignment is the Philippines. He's been out 20 months though, so he probably won't be going back, unfortunately.  Not much more has happened. I will hopefully start taking more pictures but for now, I don't have very many. Thanks for all your support! I appreciate it. Thanks! Elder Pack Ethan and Elder Mills.
