Week 63 10/23/2023

What sup y'all
Super crazy week this week, I am officially out of Madison, I am so sad, loved the members and got fed VERY well, but excited to be in THE booniest place in Central Alabama, a small place called Alexander City, I am loving it already, I have been here before on some exchanges (I'm back in the Montgomery Stake/Zone)
Alex City is crazy, my branch is in a miniature apartment. It has 4 rooms and a chapel. 
Very green. Elder Fallas is my companion and I LOVE HIM!! We have gone on exchanges together so luckily I already know him. So excited to serve with him.
This is a 7 week transfer so I'll at least get an extra week if I go somewhere else.
This week we got here Friday. 
We are reopening this area. 6 months with no missionaries. Lots of work to do.
When we got to the apartment we had no food so off to the store we went to stock up. Member meals are non existent here so ill have to get used to that.......
Saturday we tried to talk to lots of people, not too many wanting to listen.
Sunday we went to church. We have ELEVEN members of our branch and the Elders count as TWO. A tad different than I'm used to. I got bless and pass the sacrament then speak in sacrament meeting. No one in the ward wanted to speak so it was up to the Elders.
Also your looking at the newest ward mission leader....That's right ME! 
Im the 3rd presiding priesthood holder at church. Lots of pressure for me to be awesome!!!
After church we planned and then knocked on some doors, there was a gun shot at the house next to us, the guy turned to us and said Better start heading before it gets heated......Area is NOT safe after 7, but I am excited to be here.
Alex City is exciting.
Love y'all 
Hope Y'all have a good one.
Love Elder FOX

Hey all, super dope week this week!! We had lots of members come do lessons with us!!!!! Lots of rejection, but that part of life.....we did find 21 people that's the most we have found so YAY. My new comp is pretty great, he is almost done with his mission, but im making him work hard, to finish strong. Went on exchanges yesterday I was with elder Fallas he is W he is a homie  Nothing really else, we did get fed more than one time this week that's a W for me. People think they already have Jesus, but I keep reminding them that  we need Jesus everyday!! Spiritual thought....Ezekiel 37:13-17 talks about he stick of Judea and stick of Joseph being put together which is the Bible and the Book of Mormon, if you are confused pray about it and read Ezekiel 37 it explains why we need both and why the scattering of Israel was necessary for the restoration. It's getting warm, so don't forget to wear sunscreen. Love you all, God Bless, have a great week. Happy Mothers Day to all ...

Monday was pretty mid, we had a p day and that was about it, tuesday my companion went to Freeport and I stayed with a future missionary in the ward and went knocking on doors. Lots of people saying no to us, but that's aight. wednesday we had district council  thursday we grinded for a while. then we were told we had a meeting in prattville alabama so we packed up and headed north to stay with the elders before our meeting the next morning. we stayed with 8 other elders in one apartment it was pretty lit.....then we had follow up meetings with sister and pres chibota they made sure we were doing good physically and mentally and spiritually. Saturday we had our BAPTISM......Sister Linda Davis entered the waters of baptism, her son Tom baptized her. She had to get baptized 3 times, cause the first time her son messed up on her name, then her wrist didn't go under, so third times a charm. I was in the circle when she got the Holy Ghost that was pretty awesome!! Also General Conf...

General Conference

Hey ya'll, how ya'll doing?? Hope everyone's week has been good!! Hope everyone is staying safe and doing good!!  I want to send this email regarding General Conference and my testimony of the Book Of Mormon!  I want everyone on earth and in heaven to hear the testimony I have of the Book of Mormon and the teachings it gives. I bear my solemn testimony that the Book Of Mormon is the word of God. That 531 pages of this book are true! They teach us all of the great doctrine needed in each and everyone's lives. My favorite verses from the greatest book ever made and translated is 2 Nephi 33:10 10 And now, my beloved brethren, and also Jew, and all ye ends of the earth, hearken unto these words and believe in Christ; and if ye believe not in these words believe in Christ. And if ye shall believe in Christ ye will believe in these words, for they are the words of Christ, and he hath given them unto me; and they teach all men that they should do good Brothers and Sisters it...
