Hey everyone! this past week we've been keeping pretty busy with helping people move in and out of their houses. It's been pretty hype not gonna lie. My back says otherwise, but it's all good.
Here is a quick run through of this week:
Monday we went to OSU with a couple other missionaries to play spikeball and volleyball. It was a way good time and we got to talk to a couple really awesome people. I almost burnt the soles of my feet on the lava sand, but that's okay.
Tuesday we were on training visits with the Greenfield elders. I was with Elder Styer for the day and we had a good time together. We had interviews with President in the morning and things went pretty well overall. We did a whole bunch of contacting at night and were able to have some good lessons with people that we haven't been able to get ahold of for a while.
Wednesday was a pretty wild day. In essence we did service from 9am until 7pm for a guy named Randy. More on that will be mentioned in the miracle of the week.

Thursday was a day filled with some more service. we helped do some yard work for a less active member in the ward with the Spanish missionaries. I got to mow the lawn, it was literally the hypest thing I've done in the past year! After that we went over to another members house and threw down some mulch in their flower beds for a little bit so it was hype. After that we did a bunch of contacting and were able to set up a bunch of lessons.
Friday was looking to be a slower day, but the Lord always provides for his boys! We got a text from a member saying that they needed help moving out of their house immediately. We get there and find out that they have to be completely moved out in about 5 hours and the house is a train wreck. We did the best we could with the time we had, but the house was still a mess by the time we left. It will buff though, probably, hopefully, maybe. After that we had our weekly planning session and made a huge list of people to reach out to and stop by this next week so it's going to be pretty hype.
Saturday we went and helped Randy organize all of the boxes we moved into his house. We were there for a little bit moving furniture, organizing boxes, folding moving blankets, etc. After that they took us out to lunch and I got some pretty bomb cinnamon roll pancakes. After that things slowed down and we did even more contacting and had a couple awesome lessons.
Sunday we had church in the morning which was really good. We had a couple really awesome talks given. After that we met with a couple members and had some very spiritual lessons with them.

Miracle of the week:
So we got a referral from a member on Wednesday. Her mom and dad were apparently moving here to Grove City and the movers bailed out on them when they dropped off the moving trailers. So elder Newberry and I were able to go and help them out with a couple other guys getting all the stuff moved into their house. They are non members named Randy and Marion and they now think that we are the best people in the world. They were super thankful for our help and invited us over for the 4th of July to meet their family. Service definitely works for touching people's hearts!
Funny moment of the week:
When we were taking the trash out today, some dude stopped us and asked if we were gay and single because he was ready to mingle. We told him nah and he sped off after that. Why is it that these are the only people that want to talk to us?
Love,
Elder Bohn
