Guess where I transferred 🫡😜

 Hey everyone it's been a few weeks again so I feel guilty as I'm writing this but here I am. The last week was crazy. We didn't teach a whole lot but we did help our friend vanessa prepare for baptism. She is awesome. Vanessa is the first person to get baptised that I found out on the streets. This work is amazing and I honestly can't describe the joy that this work brings.  Honestly had a hard time seeing It at the beginning but it's so awesome!!!!!!


I had to say goodbye to a bunch of friends that I have met here in Jamaica. 
What a wonderful place and I do think it was time for a change of scenery. That's why God moved me to da bronx! 
It's a cool place. Right after I got off the train and headed to the new apartment I talked to some dudes on mopeds.  After saying no to come to church I told them to ride a wheelie and dared them to do it. Seconds after one got on the moped and ripped a fat one clear down the block. Pretty cool I'd say. I might be a bad influence to that stuff but I love it. If he would've offered me you know where I would be. (I'm sure I wouldn't but there's a 99% chance I'd ride it)....

My new companion is elder golightly. He's from Gilbert Arizona and he's going home this transfer. So maybe I'll get a greenie. That would be cool. I think it's gonna be the best transfer yet. Lots of work is about to get done. 

For those of you wondering if I have gained wait yes.... yes i have......... 20 pounds of it. And my muscles are slowly fading away and the dad bod is coming in.  I don't even care if my hair falls out as long as my facial hair continues to fill in like it is. 

Anyways the bronx is cool. And I'm happy to be here. Almost 8 months and time Flys. 

Well hope yall have a good week. 
Love,
              Elder Coca-Cola 

Wait wait wait. I also got to welcome my cousin kaden into the mission so that was chill. Super happy to have some family blood here. 

Peep the picture of my favorite Guyanese lady ever. Meet sundri. 
She's gonna get baptised soon.

Well everyone I'm still here in inwood. The work is going alright. We had a cool friend rose and her little brother that were going to get baptised. She called Saturday and said that she is no longer Interested in baptism and that she would rather live the worldly life. It kinda broke my heart but it happens so much I know that she will come back at some point and god will provide another friend for us to teach and baptise.  Transfers happened and as far as it goes on where I'm at and who I'm with I'm still in inwood. Im going to miss elder narvato and i love that man so much. He taught me so much about charity and being content with life and what we have. Im excited to go visit him in the Philippines some day! I'm with elder bjornberg. I did get a training call and I guess you could call me his trainer but he's been out for 20 months and he went home from another mission and came back out to NYC. I don't feel like a trainer at all but oh well we are working...

The work

  Well everyone you probably think im dead again you probably are upset with me. The mission has been pretty hectic lately. I ended up getting trasfered last thursday. My new comp is Elder Kwon from Korea. Funny story behind this. Some elders called us around 12 on thursday asking about a member in inwood, right before the conversations ended he mentioned his name was elder Kwon, and i blurted out of no where "Im excited to be comps with you" then 9 hours later i was called to go to brooklyn to be comps with Elder Kwon. The start of this trasfer has been really good so far. We had 4 people come to church on sunday who are really interested in baptism. Our finding area is mostly in coney island which is sketchy as heck but I want to find more than just a few new spots. Also my cousin Elder Beck is back in my district so thats nice. Theres a few of you who sent me letters I need to write back to so just know I didnt forget about you.  Please respond to this email if you love me...

 Well brother and sisters, moms and dads, aunts and uncles, friends and family, oh and great grandma. Wait.... u don't have any sisters...... It was a great week to say the least and I'm greatful to be here in brooklyn. The Lord is so involved in this work and I'm so so greatful to serve as a missionary. We have been teaching a family (mom and son) "Moe and Amaziah". I had met them on Coney Island back in May and she wanted to come to church but couldn't that week then from May into August she didn't answer the phone. Fast forward to about two weeks ago she picked up and I invited her to study with us and to be baptized. She was a little hesitant but after teaching her about the restoration, The Book Of Mormon, Joseph Smith, and especially Russell M. Nelson it was lights out and she desired baptism so much. All of the lessons were so fire and she even said this " I want to live in the Celestial kingdom and keep my covenants". I'm telling you ...
