CANADA Week 24-January 9, 2018-Bonjour Da Fam et Amis!


It was Mamie's Birthday! We brought her a cake.

This week was pretty dang chilly! With wind chill, we were hanging in the -40's which was really fun to be in haha. Oh and it just keeps on snowing, and nothing melts, so we are getting some serious mountains of snow here. It is way fun!  

The church is literally under like 6 feet of snow! WARNING: If you jump into the giant piles without gloves during a snow storm you will get frostbite for real hahaha! That was really fun!

Did I tell you guys that I lost my phone? I have no idea... but anyways it is still gone, and a new one was supposed to come like 5 days ago. It was probably lost in one of the snow storms. So missionary work has been a little difficult because we can't really stay in good contact with our friends. But we have had some miracles and it has worked out.

This week Mamie decided she wants to be baptized on the 27th which is so cool! She actually wanted to be baptized this week but there are still a few more things we want to make sure she understands clearly before she is baptized. She has some serious motivation though, because she has been walking to church in the tundra of Canada every Sunday!

We also teach Mamie's sister, aunt, and uncle. They always make us food. This was okra, fish, and rice.

It has been incredible this week to see the effects of the death of President Monson. He gave so much, and so many people were affected by his passing. His words and actions will stick with us long after his death, and there is a lot we can learn from his life of devotion. 

Had an exchange with my frere Elder Brough this week. He is awesome, and has only one transfer more than me.

This is the last week of the transfer which is insane, so I'll tell you guys what happened the next week. I think and I hope that I will be staying here for the next transfer, but we never know. 

I hope all of your New Years resolutions and goals are going well! It is always good to be able to reflect and look towards the future with a more broad perspective, so I hope all of you have some things you want to change and implement. Love you all, and thanks for all of your support! Talk to ya again the next week!

Elder Wilson
