I arrived to the mission field this last week. We got in about 5 in the afternoon and President and Sister Baker picked us up from the airport in Norfolk. We went to a church building near by to have dinner and do interviews and a little bit of training.

They put us up in a hotel that night and I slept better than I had in weeks. The next day we traveled to the mission office to get our assignments and our trainers. I have been assigned to serve in the Newport News South Zone, The Poquoson "A" are and I'm in the Poquoson ward. My trainer is Elder Horrocks from Draper, Utah. He also has all sisters!! Anyways, we then traveled to our apartment. That night we had a discussion with a man named Earnest. He is really interested in the gospel and we will meet with him again this coming Thursday. We have been riding bikes a lot and it has been warm and very humid. We went tracting on a road called Carys Chapel and only got one contact out of probably 25 houses we knocked. The city we live in is actually Yorktown and has a major highway running through it that we have to ride bikes down everyday. We have been working with a lot of less active members or inactive members. I truly do love this work and love the members and people here. Everyone we talk to always says " Bless You" or " I love Jesus" The people here really need the gospel and I know it could truly bless their lives. That's all for this week. Love you all and hope yall have great week. Thanks for the support.
