Week 46: Hello Youngstown!

 

Hey everyone! They decided to kick me out of Cleveland and just send me next door to Youngstown. My new companion is Elder Grayson and he is a stud! He was reassigned here from Mexico and is about to finish his mission. We share our apartment with the Spanish Elders, Elder Douglass and Magleby, and it's been an absolute party!

Here's a quick run through of this week:
Wednesday was my last full day in Cleveland and we spent pretty much the entire day cleaning the apartment and packing. It was a pretty depressing day because I'm going to miss it here in Cleveland, but it's all good. 
Thursday was transfer day and we got up bright and early for the 2 1/2 hour drive down to Powell. Before we went down we made a pit stop by an air show place and took a couple pictures and went on our way. We got there and we had transfer fun for a couple hours and a mini MLC to go over what we want to happen for this next transfer and things that will be going down. After that was over we had to run over to Akron to pick up a mattress and then drop it off at Rootstown for the Missionaries there. By the time we got back to the apartment it was 10:00pm and then I had to unpack still. It was all good and everything worked out pretty good. 
Friday we started off the day with service for a local church who gives meals to the people everyday. We helped make salads and prepare meals and it was pretty cool. We had a lesson with a guy we're teaching and we ended up teaching their entire family! After that we did a whole bunch of studying and weekly planning. At the end of the day, Stake President Conner came by and had a coordination meeting with our District and it was pretty awesome.
Saturday we started off the morning with service again. We helped move out a member's sister into a new house. After that we had another lesson that went pretty good. Other than that we just ran all over the place and tried to get in contact with a bunch of referrals we have and it went pretty good.
Sunday we had a whole bunch of lessons and met with a couple members and had a good time. We stopped by a member's house and had a lesson with them and then they showed us their fancy cars and motorcycles. We got to sit in their Nissan GTR and it was sick!

Miracle of the week:
We were able to find 3 new people to teach and we've had a lot of success with referrals responding to us so it's been pretty awesome! 

Funny moment of the week:
We met with a referral named Lebron and he was a pretty interesting guy. He just talked to us for about an hour about how women is the smartest creatures and they be sneaky and just trying to trap you. He then told us all of his experiences with women while he was in the Navy and told us to just avoid women because they are too smart and will wreck us. In every single area I always run into someone who tells me this same thing. It's just nonstop good times in Ohio!

Love,
Elder Bohn

I love this gospel! I am so grateful for the honor and privilege it was to labor in the vineyard of the Lord. I know Christ lives, and I kno...
