| Elder's Peterson, Farley & Johnson - Nationals vs. St. Louis |
Hello Momma,
So today is another day of
emailing from the Library of Congress. We came over here right after the
Nationals Baseball game! But we lost... :( boo. Even Bryce Harper
didn't perform well. But it was super hot and my arms are lobster red!
We were in the nose bleed seats but it was nice. And today is an all day
Pday too! So it will be nice and relaxing. But last week on Thursday I
got really sick and had a sore throat that was even worse than the one I
had in the MTC! My tonsils were GIANT! Bigger than I have ever seen
them before. So I was pretty much bed ridden for two days because I had
a fever and was aching all over. I am still a little sick with a cold
or something now but the sore throat has finally passed :) I am sorry
that everyone has been so sick at home. I hope the weather gets better
and all of you feel better as well.
As for the work here it has been surprisingly good for
how sick I have been! We have continued to teach our investigator
Amanda and she is still on date to be Baptized on the 11th of May!! She
is amazing! We have taught her about 5 times already and she went to
church last week. She has a little 5 month old boy named Sebastian,
named after her husband, so we call him Jr! We are trying to get her
husband to church too so hopefully that goes well. We are still working with
Faith and we are seriously like her sons. She was devastated when she
heard that Elder Anderson would be transferred so soon! So we don't
really know what to do with her except love her. She is really sweet.
So we are doing well here in the Derwood South area and have no idea
what is going to happen as far as transfers go so I guess we will just
have to wait a week. Oh and I haven't gotten really any mail/packages
so I will keep an eye out for those things you sent. Also, I am almost
at like 400 pictures so I will send that SD card to you this week.
I am so excited for Daniel and Mitchell! Give Mitchell
a GIANT hug this weekend at his farewell for me and tell him I wish him
the best of luck! I know those two are going to be amazing
missionaries for the Lord.
Side note... Have you heard of Celtic Thunder? Faith
says I look exactly like one of the guys in it! I want to know if I
have a doppelganger!
As for my bike issues... we went
to Dicks Sporting Goods last week and brought an extra rim that the APs
gave us but found out that it was a size 27 when I needed a 26! So
stupid! So I just put my old one back on. It will be fine-its not even
that bad! But we found a Costco with an outside food court that isn't
too far from our area so last P-day I got Pizza and a berry smoothie! I
was so stoked!
So... let me think of what we did this past week. I
went on exchanges with my district leader and we actually had a lot of
success setting up appointments and we even snuck into Leisure World and
found this less active lady who is SUPER awesome. She moved there last
November and has no transportation so she just never made it to church
but we set her up with some members to get a ride and she is committing
to go every week now! She also was baptized by a Farley 12ish years ago
in Virginia I think! He was an older Elder Farley though.... like a
Senior missionary couple I guess. Pretty cool though. Besides that I
don't have too many stories this week since I was on my death bed! Oh
but I did take a sequence of pictures over three days on what my tonsils look like
so you can see how giant they were! I am ripping those things out when I
get home.
Ha-ha I am so mad because I swear I had another couple
things to tell you but I can't think of them. But I am really excited
to call you on Mother's Day! That is going to be great! :)
I hope everyone is doing great and hope everyone is healthy and safe! If anyone has crazy news send it my way!
Love you!
Love your favorite missionary,
Elder Farley
