Please send letters!

 Here are some of the recent letters from our favorite missionary.  He is still doing well, having lots of fun!  He has been out almost 6 months now, and I am sure he would love to hear updates from everyone on how they are doing and see pictures!  So if you could send him letters, lots of letters, or emails, lets make sure he feels the love from home.  Here is his email and mailing address again:

Hello everyone! This has been a great week with lots of different things happening, but one thing is that it flew by this is probably the fastest week I've had so far I feel like i say that every week 😂 but It's true time just starts speeding up and feeling different, time just kinda stops being real and you just do things if that makes sense

Haha a couple things that happened this week, first I can drive now it's called a tiwi card and I now have the authority to drive now I guess haha but that's been cool even though driving for the first time in 4 months was really weird, but anyways another thing that happened this week is I got to go on exchanges with one of the zone leaders because my comp is the district leader and that was alot of fun i learned alot, he's from Guatemala and had some crazy stories, but I was so That day because I got almost no sleep because for exchanges you sleep at the other missionaries house the night before and one of the other missionaries that lives there snores like a truck😂 and I'm a pretty light sleeper so I could not fall asleep or stay asleep haha but anyways that was fun, one super awesome thing is we put someone on date to be baptized his name is Jaden and he's super awesome he's 16 and is super excited about it, other than that we've been knocking tons of door lately and have stared a focus on working with members which I'm super excited for because member work is awesome. One thing I've learned this week is that Tomorrow is always another day and you can always try to be better the next which is awesome and I'm so thankful for the example Jesus Christ has set so i have a guiding light in my life 😄 hope everything is going well for everyone and continues to 

Ps.sorry I need to take more pictures

Hey everyone 😄 good to he writing again this week it's weird to think I just got this big list of people and i just send you a letter every week saying what I am doing, but anyways this has been a week with things that happened in it lots of things a couple exchanges lots of knocking and some awesome teaching appointments, but first the week started off with exchanges with elder Braithwaite who's a trainee in my district and it was a lot of fun and was an awesome learning experience
To see how far I have come and how much I have learned. I also had interviews this week which is also a great experience because I hardly get a chance to talk to the mission president but it's great and nice to get some advice and also talk to the mission presidents wire sister eyre and she's great and asks fun questions. There's also been some awesome teaching appointments this week one of note is with Conor who has been investigating the church for quite a while and he's had a pretty opposite view than the church had had for most of his life he's a super logical intellectual but had slowly been building his faith because awesomely enough the gospel takes perfect sense when you study it but please pray for him in his journey. And probably my favorite part of the week is I got to go on exchanges with elder Yates who is actually an old high-school best friend and it was just such an awesome experience getting to catch up with him and he's also just an awesome missionary and fun Elder to be around. That's pretty much been this week 

Love Elder Adamson

P.s sorry I'm very bad at taking pictures I promise I'll Step it up this week and make a note of it 😅

Hello everyone! It'd been quite the week we just had transfers as I talked about in my last email, so this was my first full week here and it's been crazy 😂 first my companions name is Elder Hurst and he's from San Antonio Texas and he's a peanut farmer haha but he's cool I also live in a much nicer place than maryvale it's a weird adjustment to go out of the ghetto haha, but the apartment we live in is really nice it's awesome, and our roommates are really awesome we get along very well their names are Elder jenson and Harris a trainee it's alot of fun i like having just 4 elders in a house more it's a good time, the work has been crazy though, so our area is brand new it got split off from another so we didnt get a sim card yet because so weird planning, but it's been hard I have no idea how missionaries did it before without phones haha. So we've relied on the other elders pretty heavily, but they are awesome and help us so much we took them out to red robbin on p day to repay them it was alot of fun I'm super excited for this transfer, and we have combined district council which is just a meeting we have at the start of the transfer but I conducted it so that was cool I enjoyed it, also we came into this area and there is 3 people on date for baptism and they both already passed the interview so that's totally awesome and super crazy we've had so much work to do without a sim card haha, but i love it it's super fun to switch things up it's hard but you just get used to it and go with it, hope everyone else is doing super good miss yall!

Hello everyone! This week went by super fast, and has involved lots of biking! Which Is pretty crazy because this area I'm in is newly developed so there's lots of farmland that was already here so there is lots of parts we bike that don't have sidewalks or a bike Lanes which has been pretty crazy 😂 but our there's haven't popped yet so that awesome. We also get to talk to so many being on bike which is always fun and leads to the most interesting times. One thing I've learned this week or at least has been taught to me more is that it's important very important to always have hope for a better time to come because obviously every moments not going to be the best some are going to just really be not great but if you have that hope and trust that heavenly father really does fulfill his promises than you don't really have much to worry about it gives you a certain strength to endure anything, I've also gained a stronger testimony that tender mercys are awesome and appreciated even the small things our heavenly father loves us and is going to help us if we look for it this week in Avondale we have really just been trying to get in contact with our friends the missionaries we're teaching before which has been tough because we switched phone numbers but we got this, we've also been meeting with alot of the ward which has been awesome because I love member work and working with the ward its the best way to do missionary work and you meet some pretty awesome people, but anyways you all are awesome hope everyone is doing well! I'd love to hear from you keep being good!
