This week was pretty great. To start, it was my last 1/2 week in Orange Park and I really didn't want to leave. On Tuesday we did service for Helen and she took us to a Thai food place that was pretty good. After, we went with her to Jerimiahs and got Italian ice and Gelato which is amazing. After we finished packing all of our things and we had a correlation meeting which was fun. At it Elder Hansen burned a shirt and we had a good time. The next morning, we packed up early and went to Breakfast for the last time with Grandpa Girard. Then we drove to transfers and I helped bring some cars and supplies to the church for the new Missionaires. Grandpa Girard let me leave all of my stuff in his car and drove with us to our new place in live oak. On our way, we stopped for lunch at Whataburger. So my new area is very similar to Georgia, Waycross where I first served. It is a small branch with around 80-100 active members. The night we got there, they had a party for us which was awesome. They are super excited to have Missionaires back in the area and we are excited to work with them.
The next few days went by quite fast and we had a few good miricals. We were in a area and were trying to contact a guy. We didn't contact him but on the way back to the car we found 2 potential people who were interested. We set up 4 lessons for Saturday which was awesome. We had 2 of 4 but still It is great to see the enthusiasm of the people in this area to learn. On Sunday, a sister showed up to church and said she has a desire to be baptised and wants to take the discussions. We are super excited to work with her. We also went by a potential person and met her husband who seemed really interested and we set up a lesson for this upcoming week. This area has been so full of miricals and has been a blessing to us as missionaries.
Now some sad news... while Tracting, I had a mento in my mouth and while we were talking with a guy, I was chewing and but on something hard. Immediatly I thought it was my tooth that had a crown on it and eventually will need to be replaced. I then realised that it was the tooth right above and the back part came off. Now I'll have to find a place and time to get that looked at 
.
Live Oak is awesome and I am so greatful to be serving here. I know that the Lord truly knows me and knows each one of you. Listen to the promptings of the spirit and be willing and ready to share your testimony. President Monson said, "Reguarding one's testimony, remember, that which one willingly shares he keeps, while that which he selfishly keeps he looses.... Teach and Testify. There is no better combination." Testimony are so powerful. It is a blessing to be on a mission and share my knowledge of the gospel with everyone. It has been a huge blessing to me! I love you all and hope you have an awesome miracle filled week. Remember to smile and look for the best in everything! Love ya
