Trio for three days and your regularly scheduled miracle in the park Nov 8, 2021

 Well this week was a good week, it was very slow but good nonetheless. There were a couple miracles and some good stories so here they are...

Last P-day:
We had district p day last pday and it was so awesome! We went to downtown Indy and went and visited the memorial there (it's like the only thing that's even remotely famous about Indiana) but it was super awesome! I even handed out a pass along card which was pretty dope!

"What are yall doing over there?!?":
On Tuesday we were once again doing our studies in the park....you can probably guess where this is going....but we saw this lady walking her dog and I yelled "hey how's it going?" You know like missionaries do and she was like "good! What're you guys doing over there?", Elder Cook was like "studying Scriptures! Wanna join!" And in response she says "I KNEW THATS WHAT YOU WERE DOING!! Let me finish my walk and I'll be right back!"....so being missionaries we assumed finishing her walk ment walking home and never talking with us again but this lady actually came back!!!! Ok so I mean that alone was quite a miracle but hold on it gets crazier. So at the beginning of last transfer we had called this lady, named Genora, that the sisters before us had talked to. When we called she basically said no thanks not interested. Well believe it or not guess who this lady who came back was...it was freaking GENORA!! Well we talked to her for a while and then just kinda out of no where she was like "I wanna come to your church, what's the address?" 🤯🤯 my brain actually turned off...this never happens. Anyways she didn't actually end up coming 🥳😂 but she does seem interested at least so hopefully next week I'll have a Genora update.

Elder Prosser a pretty dope missionary:
We had a Elder stay with us for a couple days while he waited to fly out for Brazil (his original assignment). He was super awesome and we got some pretty dang good work done well he was here. We picked him up on Tuesday and dropped him off at the airport on Thursday, so we were in a trio for that time which was pretty fun. Trios are kinda dope not gonna lie. But yeah not much else to report on that 😂🤷‍♂️

Spencer update: 
Spencer is doing good! We invited him to come to church and he said he'd think about it, he didn't come. But that was ok, we'll keep working with him. He's super awesome though! Just keep praying for him!! 

Scripture of the Week:
D&C 24:8
"Be patient in afflictions, for thou shalt have many; but endure them, for, lo, I am with thee, even unto the end of thy days."

Well that's all for this week but it was a really good week! Remember I love you all and am cheering you guys on!! Sorry it was a wee bit long but oh well, I would be shocked if anyone even reads to this point cause I probably wouldn't but if you did I applaud you! 😂

 That's right folks, only four days left till I enter the field and I couldn't be more pumped. I am gonna miss my freaking awesome district though, no cap. but there's actually a few stories from this week so buckle up folks this email might be the longest one yet, a whole two paragraphs. Kickball: On Friday we played kickball with another district who was in our residency building just across the hall from us and it was tons of fun, but we lost miserably by like fifteen points. But I still had tons of fun. After the game the Elders from the district we played with came to give us a box of donuts to say sorry for absolutely destroying you, and in the box there was a single, solitary "L" shaped donut, it was a very well done prank. District scripture share: Saturday we got together as a district and shared our favorite scriptures and everyone shared really awesome scriptures that definitely made me feel the spirit. I shared D&C 122 5-8 and even...

First p day

Hey everyone well it's only been three days but it feels like a lot has happened in just those three days, I met my district and comp and they're all really awesome people! My companion is Elder Kennedy and he is super chill. I can't wait to meet everyone in person though when I go to the Provo MTC this Wednesday, because right now it still feels kind of weird being at home even though I've been set apart as a missionary, I don't know quite how to explain it but it feels very surreal. Monday it felt like I was almost dreaming, because I've been anxiously waiting for this day to finally come for like a long time and now that it's here it feels so weird.  I know God loves you all and that He can help us through any trials we're facing, he's helped me a lot adjusting to missionary life! I invite you all to read D&C 121: 7-8 because they are really awesome verses that have helped me a ton this week. Anyways love you all.  -Elder Roberts

 Well I guess there goes another week...crazy how fast time is flying. I left in August and now its almost Halloween...  Anyways things are going well I'd say. We did a lot of service and had a few miracles that were pretty chill but all in all a pretty good week! Here's the miracles from the week: Mondays lesson: So that lesson with the guy who came up to us in the park (seth) went pretty well. He had a ton of questions that I had no idea how to even begin to answer but Edler Cook was just like oh this is easy and answered every question and we have another lesson with him tonight so that's dope! Hopefully it keeps going well and keep sending those prayers!   Danville the place of many miracles: Ok so there were two pretty dope miracles that happened in Danville...First we were in a park (of course) and we were walking around and we saw this guy sitting on a bench, and let me tell you this man was the most yoked man I have ever seen. Like why would a man ever need t...
