People think they can float+ year in Illinois + fantasy draft= crazy

So a little background I got transferred after serving a transfer in Pontiac I was moved out. My whole zone got picked apart so I was alright with leaving. I got separated from my homie Elder Hill he was a great companion. I was sad that we weren't two transfer comps. It honestly feels like a fantasy football draft our whole mission moved around. President Sturm completely re-did the mission it feels like.But I got sent to a town called Fairfield in Iowa. Let me tell you just straight up Google the Maharishi Management School. They straight up believe they can float. It's pretty wild. They say it's not a religion but people have pictures of these Indian people from like the 1950's it's pretty crazy. Some people thought I was from Ireland and Germany. Well I just told 'em I had a speech impediment. They told me I have my own language so ... #hippies. But it's been pretty wild.

Monday: We went on exchanges I got to be with Elder Sharp in Normal. I was pretty excited it was a fun time. We mobbed around and did some great stuff found some people it was a great time. He is one of my mission homies for sure.

Tuesday: I got told I was going to Fairfield with Elder Critchfield. I was pumped 'cause we already know each other pretty well so that's pretty great. We then went and had lunch with a member. Then we went home and packed all of our stuff. We went and said bye to some families. Then we finished packing. We also cleaned our apartment because our area was being closed for a hot minute.

Wednesday: it was super p day it was a great time we went bowling for days it was pretty sick. We then went back to the church and talked. It was a great time so many members of our zone went STL and ZL so that was cool. I am definitely gonna miss all the members of this zone. It was the best zone I have had in a long time!  We then stayed the night with our zls good old Elder Madsen and Broby . We had a good a time and went to a member who loves Elder Madsen and was so sad he was leaving. Then we went had a good night then slept.

Thursday: I said bye to the the members of the zone and some missonaries who where going home. I am just so grateful that the zone was so tight. I am also super grateful for the impact that so many departing missionaries left on my mission. It was sad to see them go but they definitely deserve to be home. We then had lunch at the mall and then bailed and drove to Fairfield where it was like 108 degrees I hate this Iowa weather tbh.

Friday: We had a district council with the zone so many new people but my zone is pretty awesome now. It was cool meeting the brand new sisters their trainers are cool. And of course getting reunited with Elder Burke and Taylor. It's pretty great I definitely love my zone.

Saturday: Elder Critchfield and another Elder went to a baptism. So I got put into a trio with Elder Sharp and Adam's. We went to Nauvoo and went around and saw so many sites and it's still so amazing. Every time I go I meet people with connections to me. Of course we went to the temple with Elder Adam's baptisms. So I was a witness to a ton of baptisms. I love the temple and look forward to a time I can more regularly attend. We saw the sunset at the Mississippi and then went to the pageant even tho the pageant got cancelled due to a storm. I was so salty, but I hung out all day In Nauvoo so it was worth it. I loved seeing so many missionaries who I am homies with. Driving home we witnessed a crazy storm it was a beauty but kind of sketchy the sky would be pitch Black then the lightning would happen and it would be so colorful.

Sunday: We went to church it was a unique experience being in a ward again. We met someone we are teaching who believes in maharishi stuff so that is pretty interesting but we will get baptized hopefully. We then went to a middle of cornfields and had dinner so it was pretty awesome. 


Love y'all
