Final Hours

Dear Family and Friends,

I had a really good week as we did a lot of service. On Tuesday, we took out an old fence with the help of a tractor that seemed older than the fence. The tractor ended up starting a fire in the field and we had to run to put it out. We also painted a deck this week. I ruined my sweats and a old shirt. It was a lot of fun this week. I can't believe it went by so fast.

We had a lot of dinners and member visits this week and it was fun to go out with them in the work. We talked to a lot of people. I will keep this short as my brain is just going to fast right now. See ya tomorrow mom and dad.

Alma 42:26 And thus God bringeth about his great and eternal purposes, which were prepared from the foundation of the world. And thus cometh about the salvation and the redemption of men, and also their destruction and misery.

Love,

Elder Blazzard

Home to SLC and Payson on Tuesday of next week.

Final Week

Dear Family and Friends,

What a week! I went on two exchanges this week. First, I had Elder Draper come up to Pikeville with me on exchanges. W traveled, searching for a referral up the west mountain. We finally found the family and they were super nice. After that exchange and after district meeting in Jasper I went on exchanges up in Altamont with Elders Rock and Melville.

We met a lot of different people up there and it was a fun experience for me. The fall colors are really coming in and it is a site to see. It was a good week with a lot of work. Meetings on Sunday were inspirational.

I hope y'all had a good week as well. We almost had a homemade meal every night of the week, so I was happy of course. I am grateful for all that I have learned from my mission and I know that this work and Gospel of Jesus Christ are true.

Love,

Elder Blazzard

Working the Woods

Dear Family and Friends,

It was a good week. I went to Winchester on exchanges this week and it was a lot of fun to be back there and see some of the people I taught while I was there a year ago. I had dinners with some great members. We went to Jasper on P-day to explore a cave and hike around the area. That area is very beautiful. We did a lot of service this week and visited with a lot of members, it was good. Church was good this week, I played the piano for sacrament meeting again. I will be going to Altamont for exchanges this week.  I hope y'all had a good week, and look for the good around you. 

Love,

Elder Blazzard

Traveling the Large Area

Dear Family and Friends,

We had a great week. We had zone meeting this week up in McMinnville. We also had interviews with the President. It was a good meeting and interview. The trip was good but long like all our trips. We met with more members this week and there is a lot of members up on the mountain. One lady made us Krystal burgers.

On Saturday we visited with some members and they gave us haircuts.  Afterwards we went to this place called the apple house where they sell all things apple. It was pretty cool and smelt great. We visited a lot of people this week and it was great. I learned a lot this week and worked on my southern accent.

Have a great week y'all. Oh, I played piano for sacrament again, it was fun.

Love,

Elder Blazzard
