Hello everyone! 

Well... this past week started out with a bang... literally! On Tuesday morning I woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom, and afterwards I started to feel a bit dizzy. The next thing I knew I was passed out on the bathroom floor. I just remember waking up with a big headache and a bloody elbow. I've never blacked out before, but it was crazy to experience it! I have no clue why it happened though. When I went back into the bedroom, Elder Kozma was like "what was that loud banging noise?" And I was like "uhhh..." 

Anyways, on Tuesday we had the "mission games", which was basically like the Olympics for our mission. It was kind of like Russet Olympics. We just played a bunch of games against each other and had a lot of fun! Our mission president just wanted to do something fun with us to help us all build relationships and have some fun. My district was called "The Cornwall Destroying Angels". And President Hughes chose to be on our team! It was awesome! I found out how competitive he is! It was so cool to see him in a more relaxed and casual environment. I also found out that his favorite singer is Billy Joel and that he is a Conner McGregor fan. 

We had some lessons with a few of our new friends this week. It was really good to get to know them better and help strengthen their faith. On Saturday we had a zone blitz, which is where our whole zone does street contacting together. We went to Exeter and just mobbed the place. It was really cool! I got to learn a lot from other missionaries and talk to a lot of people. One of my favorite parts about that day was before we went street contacting.  The assistants showed us one of my favorite motivational videos. It was the classic Eric Thomas video that talks about how, "you'll be successful when you want to be successful as bad as you want to breathe." If you haven't seen it, I would recommend you to watch it! It's awesome! 

I hope everyone is doing great! Keep going and keep having faith! The Lord can help you get through anything! He has a plan for all of us! Love you all!
