Well, I made it to Chipley safely! It was hard to say goodbye to
"the View" and I am going to miss it there so much!! But hopefully Chipley
will be a good stay for me. This place is filled with a whole lot of
nothin, it's just a bunch of farmers, its' kinda cool! There is a very
high black population here and I'm pretty sure we are the minority, it's
sick!!!! Elder Johnson and I are getting a long pretty well, he is a
great missionary and is super positive and kind to everyone! There is this one guy that we are teaching, named Carl,
who has been investigating the church for 2 years and is soooo close to
baptism, all he has to do is quit smoking. He already calls the Mormon Church his church and talks about baptism all the time, we just need him
to quit, he is super close, he even gave us his pack the last time we
saw him!! We buy him Altoids as a substitute and it works pretty well
for him, so hopefully he can keep that up!
As of right now, this area is kinda slow but Elder Johnson and I both
feel that there is a lot of potential here! Even though it is a small
town, there are so many people to teach, we just have to be courageous
and talk with everyone, no matter who they are! It is going to be an
awesome transfer, I just know it!!
