Hello everyone!
This week was a fun one! We volunteered at the local food bank again this week which was fun. This time, however, they gave us a bunch of food (mostly French bread and cake).
We also helped a member here split a bunch of wood for a family who needed it. That was a lot of fun. We split a lot of wood and Elder Thacker broke an ax. The guy we helped split had two dogs as well. One was a doberman named "Very Bad" and a rottweiler names "Death". They were super nice! It was kinda funny.
The McKenna Elders had a baptism this week as well! I got to go to it and help set up. It was really cool. The kid they were baptizing was super excited. It's the first baptism that had happened in McKenna for a very long time. It's really cool here to see the work progressing. There should be one here next week in Yelm as well! We have two people on date for December!
Last night the church here put on a community Christmas Concert! There were a bunch of different musical groups from all the different churches in the area. It was really cool to see how important the Savior is to so many different people. It was cool to see the whole community together for one event.
It was a huge success. The church was full all the way through the cultural hall and up on the stage. It was awesome.
Also! I got my transfer call on Saturday. I am leaving Yelm and going to Port Townsend! I'm sad to be leaving Yelm and all the amazing people here but I am excited for a new adventure. It is supposed to be really pretty there and there are people from Yelm with family there!
Anyways, that's all for this week. Till next time!
Love
Elder Parker
