Hey everyone! Ethan didn't write today because he was super busy so I thought I would update you on how he is doing. Ethan is being transferred!  He will be going to Loveland, CO, to serve in the Boyd Lake Ward.  He doesn't know who his companion will be because he is going to train again.  I told him he is the mission trainer. 😉 Right now, he is serving in 2 wards in Casper.  But the area is going to be split so each set of missionaries will only have one ward to cover.  The apartment where Ethan has been living will be given to the companionship of sisters who will be serving in one of the wards and then the elders will have the other ward.  Ethan's current companion is staying so he will continue working in the one ward.   They had a busy day today because they had to get the apartment ready and cleaned out for the sisters to move into.  Usually, Ethan would wait for the transfer bus to get there and pack the morning of his transfer....

I like to keep Ethan's Facebook posts.  Here is his latest one.

Hey everyone! This week was good as normal. We had some great lessons with Michael. He is almost ready to get baptized on the 30th. It is so cool. I might not be here to see it because transfers are on the 27th. It is still great though. I'll attach a bunch of pictures. There are some good ones this week. Thanks everyone for your support. It means a lot. Have a good week! From, Elder Pack PS:  Here is the information about the pictures.  I'm not sure what order they are in so I will try to make it easy to understand. There were 3 young men from the ward Ethan is serving in who have just left on their own missions.  Ethan took a picture with his companion and one of the future elders after the future elder's farewell.  Missionaries are looking younger and younger to me! They were sharing a message with a family and the dog didn't want Ethan to leave.  He went over and stood on Ethan's foot.  Ethan said it was pretty funny.   There was a house they ...

Hey everyone! This week was pretty good. We got some snow today. People were saying we were gonna get a lot but we only got about 3 or 4 inches.  We also started teaching a guy named Justin. We're gonna meet with him again today and we'll see how interested he actually is but our first lesson went pretty well.  I also had one of the best meals so far this week. A big ol delicious steak, salad, and French fries. The member who made it is super good at cooking. The picture I took of it doesn't do it justice.  Ethan's steak dinner I also got to go to zone conference. The focus was on teaching skills like setting expectations. It was pretty great.

He y everyone! Hope all is well with you guys, wherever you are. This week was pretty good. Thanks for all of your prayers for Troy and Michael. They both watched General Conference and really enjoyed it. And we had a good lesson with Michael.  So I'm really seeing how the gospel helps him focus and make him happier in his life.  Speaking of Conference, it was awesome! If you haven't watched it or are curious about what the prophet and apostles talk about, you should check it out. Every single talk focused on Christ. I don't really have anything else to talk about. I'll send some pictures that I took though.  Thanks for all of your prayers and support!  From, Elder Pack PS.  Here is some info about the pictures, at least what I know.   This picture is from last week when the elders went to check out the cave.  This definitely isn't a cave to go to if you are a fat man (haha).  Ethan wanted me to know that everyone got home safely before he se...
