So family I don’t have time to write you all but I love you. I’m working hard and am going on my first transfer this week. I’m excited and it should be fun.Second announcement I don’t know when it is closing I will send letters in increments just incase. It has been really storming this past week. We have had to go inside twice and their have been two or three tornado warnings. It gave me plenty of time to write letters and eat food today. How are Jesse and Ryan doing? Did Jesse make it out of the MTC yet? I heard that they where quarantined is that lifted yet? I love you all family and hope you are doing good. Send me letters preferably. I don’t get a chance to read as much but I also enjoy emails. I usually don’t know what to say so just ask questions and I’ll fill you in on what you want to know. We went to church this week and had a great time. We went to the park this past week and contacted two wonderful ladies. My companion gave away two book of mormons and the people said they would read them. I'm excited. see ya

Yes I am currently in Fort Collins, Colorado. That is wonderful to hear about James and Tanner Cook getting their mission calls. They will do great things in the mission field. It has been exciting this past week. Yes we moved in safe and sound with the Mesers. We are living in their basement surrounded by year supply and other assortments. It is very exciting. They opened a room and a nice table for us to work and study on. It has been great. Congrats to Celeste and Casey. I’m so excited for them. It will be good to be an uncle and have a new nephew love you all bye no time.

June 7
Hello,Yes just send all packages to the mission office, the area I am currently in has to have the elders move every three months. Just send packages to the front office and they will know what to do with them. Don’t send packages by fed ex or ups. They want to forward the packages to me the day they get them. Mom, fill free to forward the emails and edit them. I will work on spell checking them before I send them to you. You can cut and past what is needed and not. I heard Elder Adams and Elder Morris where delayed a few weeks and that the MTC was under lockdown for 10 days from the family I’m living with. Have so much fun up at the Bevell reunion without the family. I'm glad dad has been blessed with work that is wonderful.
It is sad, the investigator we had set for baptism can’t get Sundays off for work. He is busy working 7 days a week, 10 hours a day. He just looks tired but wants to come to church. He asked his boss for Sundays off and his boss said that on the twelfth, when the project is finished he can have two days off each week. Let’s hope he gets Sundays off. The work has been good and very rainy. We (my companion and I) have our car back to use this month. It has been nice to drive in the rain when we are inside the car. The families we meet and talk to are very nice and feed us dinner once a night.This past week we were able to help a family who needed yard work done. We worked for several hours Saturday mowing the yard and picking up trash, pulling weeds, filling a trailer with the trash, and just trying to help out. The family was so nice and fed us lunch and dinner. I was grateful for the meal because we missed lunch and had been working hard all day. I’m grateful for the blessings that are given to me. Giving service is one of the best ways to share the gospel and bless people’s lives. It is great just to be here.
Dad wow you found work that is wonderful. I love you and miss going down the river with you.Mom Hello, have fun on the family trip. Celeste and Casey Stay in school, I believe in you, you’ll be amazing I love you. Joycelyn have a wonderful summer, work hard with dad.

Dustin I love you take care of the animals, I saw a frog as big as my hand yesterday. Jaydon are you feeling better? I love you Have fun you are amazing
