So whats up guys?  To be completely honest this week has been uber boring cause we have had to be inside a lot, but that should be ending soon so that will be nice. But I still was able to get some stories for you guys, cause honestly this is the highlight of my week.  Other than sacrament of course;)
First story!
"Flashbacks"
SO this week we were blessed to have zone conference.  I however had been sick so I hadn't slept very much for the two days prior; so I ended up falling asleep through half of it, then getting in trouble afterward for sleeping. Mission president didn't think that President Uchtdorf's quote fit the circumstances.  But for some reason as we were about to leave, we all had a flash back to when I swan dived in the rain, and it started pouring. Some of the missionaries who witnessed my beautiful clumsiness the first time started asking me, "So Tucker we going swimming again today?"  I just laughed and then went and splashed in the puddles like a four year old and I loved it!

Story number 2
Cars
So no we are still a walking mission, but I have really missed the feeling of driving a car recently.  So with nothing to do inside, all day.  I usually sit in my chair and go all speed racer and pretend I am in the grand prix race.  It has been great.  While doing this my companion came out and just watched my for like four minutes disapprovingly, then stated "Are you honestly nineteen?"  I just looked at him and said "he could join if he wants".  He didn't want to join.   As for the outcome I came in third.  I wasn't really into it,  but I qualified for next years race. So I will let you know how it goes.  I have to fix my car though which will take a while, you know us small business racers don't have all the perks of the sponsored ones.

Anyways have a great week guys.

Hey Momma,

That is a whole lot of questions but I will try to answer them best I can.  I feel pretty safe, the people here are peaceful and don't want any violence, but we will see near the end of next week how it goes.  The police are using tear gas for the riots, the opposition we hear is using bees.( Teron didn't know how because he is on lockdown. His brother figured out how and it doesn't sound good.) 

Yes I can most definitely see the spirit of Christ in the work, the more you try to be like Christ the more you are blessed, maybe with investigators, but mostly with your attitude.  I honestly don't know but I am hoping that I have, only time will tell. 

Technically yes, the members are average people, but members a lot of the time they are better prepared. The spirit seems to help with their lives, I guess.

Things are alright, but the lock downs are killing me cause I have read every Liahona magazine we have in the flat.  But I am making it okay.  I love teaching though its great.
I hope things are great in utah even though California is up in flames, I will pray for rain.  Love you lots and miss you. Ter

Please pray for a peaceful end to this election. Missionaries are sheltering in place til after the election, Teron's least favorite thing to do is shelter in place.
