People who are visiting England take pictures of various things to remind them of their trip.
Some people take pictures of cathedrals.
Others take pictures of the countryside.
Still others take pictures of the red phone booths.
Chance takes pictures of Dodge trucks.
Each person notices different things while visiting or living in a foreign country.
Chance gravitates to trucks.
Especially American trucks.
In his own words:
" I saw this awesome old Dodge truck here and It's right next to our flat! I would drive that truck over any of the Ferrari's I've seen here, you best believe it!"
Cowboy Chance is still alive and well even if he isn't wearing cowboy boots everyday at the moment.
One pair of his shoes is ripping out on the side now.
Chance has given them a good workout over there in England.
Chance now lives in a flat with 3 other elders. He still has one companion,
they just live with another set of missionaries.
He is really enjoying having 4 missionaries in the flat and they have a lot of fun together.
This is what Chance wrote home this past week:
One of the Elders that I live with, he is from Mexico and last Tuesday was Mexico's national holiday so we celebrated it with him and he made all of the meals. I loved them! But they were also VERY spicy! So the running joke now is that whenever we eat spicy food, we make a sound like a train horn and we demonstrate with our hands the spiciness coming out of our ears. It's really funny. I've also been nicknamed the Milky Way in this flat because of how much Milk I drink, so whenever I drink Milk, one of the Elders looks at me and goes, it's the Milky way. It's been a blast with the other Elders here.
Lastly, the past week Elder and Sister Rasband had a face2face event for the Young Adults and it was so good! They answered some questions and I felt the spirit so strongly. I would encourage and invite all of you to go listen to it, especially the Young Adults! One of my favorite things that I heard from it was when he said something along the lines of "The most studying and pondering you should do, should be of the latest words of the Prophets and Apostles." It makes so much sense because they are revealing and guiding us for our very day. They are living with us and are receiving Revelation from God on what we should do and how we should do things. The Prophets and Apostles are magnificent people. If you aren't sure if they are truly called by God, go read some of their talks and pay attention to your feelings. You will find that the Holy Ghost will confirm what you are reading is true and that those men are truly ordained of God. I love you all! Have a great week!
