I've hit 6 months gang. Got to do that 3 more times and you'll get to see my wonderful face again. I know y'all can't wait. We had zone conference this week. Was pretty litty. Got to see my dad, Elder Ruddell again. Learned some good stuff. I was supposed to have a baptism this Sunday, but her parents didn't give her their blessing Next week I'll hopefully have transfer news. I'll know if I'm leaving Falls park or staying here for 5 transfers. I love this place, but it might be time for me to leave. Get a new adventure and all. Love you all. Here's some flicks All falls park missionaries Ap Findlay Best zone in the Mish fr Batch

What it do, crew. How y'all been? Oh, me I been pretty alright, I would say. General Conference, ya let's talk about it. First off, this week was pretty solid. Put 2 friends on date for baptism. One name is Val. She's pretty chill, not sure if she'll make it there, but we will try. Regina is back on date. Super sick. She has pushed through so much to get baptized. She will be getting baptized next Sunday, if things all work out. Got to go to Omaha. We had a trainer/trainee meeting this week. Was pretty chill, just hung out with a bunch of other missionaries. Mainly for my new guy, but still got some stuff out of it. Unfortunately, our area 70 cooked us. We basically just got told you can never go to the temple. In the past we would go for trainer/trainee and missionary leadership conference. None of that. I can't even go with recent converts any more. Only missionaries within an hour of the temple can go with their recent converts. I don't know, maybe they are i...

I Don't Even Know Lowkey

What's good, my gang. Another day another dollar. Lowkey, nothing happened this week. I'm just like going through the motions. I'm trying to be a good trainer, giving the little jit some time to speak.  Regina is one of our friends. She's been on date for 3 months. Her aunt died last week so we took her off date and then on Tuesday she goes, "Do I bring extra clothes on Sunday?" She still wanted to get baptized. So hype. We met with her every day, and she was looking good to get baptized this Sunday...... This has not been going my way. We wake up to a text on Sunday saying, my Uncle died and it's custom for my culture to not leave the house when someone dies. It's really sad for her and her family so definitely keep them in your prayers.  That was pretty much the week, honestly. Just flying by, I'm almost at 6 months, which is insane to me. I get to go to the temple and Omaha next week, so looking forward to that. We've got General Conference....

The Spirit Of Contention

Yo what it do, gang. Well, I don't know how to start this email. It was a great week, until Sunday.  I went on two exchanges this week. They were so sick. Me and my zl went on one. Me and my boy Bergy went on a crazy exchange, it was so funny. Did some random things. It was a legendary day for sure.  This whole week was just prepping for JJ and Fes' baptisms. They were looking golden. These kids are so elect. They were so hyped to get baptized..... We pick them up early for church cause my bishop wants to talk with them before they are baptized. Their dads go in there with them. JJ is 10 and Fes is 9, they are best friends who are both from Congo. Their dads also know each other. This interview lasts 30 minutes. Our bishop walks out and comes over to us and says, they aren't getting baptized.....  He said that their dads said they aren't ready yet. I have been asking their dads if I can do this every day for the past 8 days. I truly do not know what happened. I was so m...

Robby Jr Came Out With Robby

What a week. Holy, you're in for a real treat. Stay tuned This week starts out with getting my greenie. This didn't go as I thought it would. Woke up to see a name I knew. I was tripping real hard. Turns out he came out with me and had to go home for about 4 months. But he's back now and we have been going to work MAYSON ROBIN Holy, we baptized the most fire 8-year-old from Chuuke. Which is a real place, Dad. It's in Micronesia by Guam. We found him 15 days ago and he got in the font. He was so hyped for his baptism. 5 OD's I must be doing something right because in the past 4 days, we've put 5 on date for baptism. The first 3 are cool, but we put two on date on Sunday night. Holy this is an insane miracle. JJ and Fes They are both from Congo one is 11 the other is 9. They live in the same apartment complex and they both came to church today. We went over last night and put both of them on date for next Sunday. It's going to be so cool. They are so fire Spir...

Rudd & Robb's Last Ride

Image
Where do I even start this email? Holy. It's been quite a crazy week for sure. Sooo much to talk about, so let's jump right into it. Honestly, I feel like I've been hanging out with a bunch of our friends. I've been here 4 months, so I have a great relationship with all them. We literally walked to Casey's with a recent convert. Vlog on the Google photos. They are all like good friends now. The Goat Mason. We found a Chuuke mom 2 Thursdays ago. Gave her a book and she said come back tomorrow, so we went back on Friday and shared a restoration. She says, I want to come to church, but I will not be baptized again (don't worry I'll get her there). But, she said we could come back tomorrow. We went back the next day and 2 kids joined us. Wouldn't you know it, one of them is 8. They came to church Sunday and we put him on date on Monday. Little bro is so hyped to be baptized. He's getting baptized this Sunday and it's gonna be so sick. Chuukes are so ...

Another Day Another Dollar

Welcome back to another epic week in the NOM. This week starts with throwing a couch off a balcony. Let's get into it.  We finished closing the old apartment, so we had to get everything out of it.... Including the couch. We are on the second floor, and I was not about to carry that downstairs so.... We just threw it off the balcony. There's a vid in my Google photos so check it out.  Had a fire exchange with Martino who is a brand new greenie. Was pretty sick and had a lot of fun.  Got 12 people to church this week. We were told by our Mission President to invite everyone we see to church, so I guess it works. He might know a thing or two maybe. Also got the FLDS broda there. So lit. My momma had her birthday so give her a little late happy birthday to her. Also did something that would make her proud prolly. We ate some Ethiopian food and guess what, it was mainly eggs.  For those of you who don't know, I absolutely hate eggs. But I thuged it out and it was pretty ...
