New transfer!

I am staying here with Elder Braman!

Sooo in Republic there are 900 people, and two nuts (me and Braman.) We live above a bar in a small apartment, a brewing company beneath and to the right, a drug store to the left. it is by far the smallest place I've been to(the town not the  apartment.)

So me and braman are doing alright, although i suspect if we were not in the mission we would have nothing to do with each other. Braman is a rough piece of coal and I'm a lump of dough, we're both going through a process to become something better but together it's just weird and not working out properly.

Another transfer isn't bad we just grind on each others gears sometimes.

We don't have a lot of people to teach we have three(yes you read that right three) and those have only one progressing right now, so needless to say my time is spent with a LOT of service as well.

The members here are around fifty but everyone i can think of is trying to move away. The family of the Rodachs was who we helped move away this past transfer, as well as move there Camaro into a garage(a dilapidated Camaro, with no motor, and missing many other things that would be nice in a car like it) I remember the joke that was made by Jeff Foxworthy "you might be a redneck if you have ten cars in the front yard and only two work" yep that matches up here Pretty well.

I hope this transfer goes smoothly however, snow is kicking up something fierce outside.

  1. Stick in there Elder Padilla. There are those that we just don't mess with but he is still your brother in heaven and that is all you need to make it a success.
