Elder Bloxham Week 7 :)

     Hello family!! I am so happy to be writing you this fine Monday morning!! The weather is getting warmer, but also more humid, but the birds are chirpin' and the trees are getting greener!! That is what is so great is everything is so green! The trees are huge and green, all the yards are nice and green, and the birds are just so awesome to listen to! They have Cardinals here, and they are the coolest birds. They are the most beautiful song bird, they have the coolest little chirp!
     Anyways, this week has been fabulous! We are getting more investigators and they are all pretty solid! Connie came to Mutual on Wednesday and she loved it! We are also teaching the Badger family which was a referral from the senior couple here, and they are an awesome family! They have 2 sons and they are pretty cool! Darron and Ashley really want to come to church but there is a lot going on because he is switching jobs and stuff, but once he gets his new job he will be able to come to church because he will no longer work on sundays. They are a very fun family and we are really excited to teach them more and more as they start coming to church and everything.

            The town is starting to love the missionaries walking the streets. We get honked and waved to about 5 or 6 times a day and some of them pull over just to say hi! Now that it's getting warmer people are starting to get happier and that just opens avenues for teaching! We are getting pretty close to the members and i love that. I love that i can talk to them personally and joke around with them! Brother Robbins, he's about 31 and his wife Sister Robbins is about the same age, and they have the cutest little daughter names Eliza! Brother Robbins invites us over for lunch all the time and he makes us some pretty good food, well for Indiana it's pretty good.. It's funny because people in Indiana think it's fine just to cook everything with salt only.. It's pretty good, and it keeps me from being picky! 
             My testimony just keeps on growing! There are just so many things that happen that i don't understand how you couldn't KNOW that it is the spirit. I love it. Absolutely love Winchester. Love Indiana. Love being a missionary. Love the Book of Mormon and I know, without a shadow of a doubt that it is the word of god, translated by the prophet Joseph Smith. It testifies to me every time i read it and it feels like i'm sitting on a cloud while i'm reading. Who would have thought i liked reading so much?... 
              If you ever need guidance in anything, prayer and reading the Book of Mormon is the answer. You will know that the Holy Ghost is there comforting you. And that alone will make your day that much better!
             
            Love,
