Week 1 Corpus Christi, Texas


Hey Mom,

First week in Corpus Christi was super good. First week as a district leader was also good, not much that is new, you have to prepare meetings every Tuesday So far so good. 

That is good that you enjoyed your getaway. Sounds like you had a good time. 

We will either watch General Conference with members or at the church, we aren't sure yet. 

My companion is Elder Christensen, he is super cool. He is actually on his last transfer so I will be his last companion before he heads for home. What's funny is Elder Christensen is like 6'7 and so we are just 2 big white boys wandering the streets of Flour Bluff.

The ward is super good, it is nice because all the members are returned missionaries that at some point have lived in Utah so they know how the church is supposed to work. Which makes our job really easy. 

Yeah Saints is super good. Also if you've downloaded it on Gospel library you don't need internet to read it. 

The weather here is a bit cooler. In part because summer is coming to an end but also because we are right on the ocean so we have a nice breeze all the time. 

The ward is actually an English ward. There is only a Spanish branch here in Corpus and other missionaries cover that. The ward is super good, like I said, a bunch if Utah Mormons, they know how a ward should function. 

The food is still super good. Not quite authentic Mexican food but the food is a lot more like what we would normally eat back home. 

We found a couch for a family in our ward and so we brought it to them, that was pretty cool. 

Favorite scripture for the week is D&C 98:3. All things we pass through are for our good. 

Ummm things for my year box....... I can't think of anything. But I will let you know if I think if anything before you send it. 

That is pretty much it for this week. Tell everyone I say hi.

Have a great week.

Love,
Elder Goodbaudy
