Serve City

Well this week rocked! Not gonna lie. It was a blast. The best part was this massive service project we got to do. Two weeks ago, when we got a bunch of snow (which I considered to be the greatest gift from God), others saw it as a wide-scale disaster. Which I mean it was, since it literally destroyed most of the trees in Oklahoma City, but c’mon, look at the bright side. But I guess I should explain how those trees got destroyed. So Oklahoma is just an indecisive little goober of a state, and instead of having either rain or snow, it has freezing rain. Which is just snow and rain combined, from what I’ve seen. And this rain falls, and then freezes on stuff. So it looks pretty sick, since everything gets encased in a thin layer of ice. But that ice adds up fast, and it’s usually too much weight for the wussy tree branches to handle, and they straight just break off the tree.

So it caused a bunch of trees to break, and then they finally decided to call in THE CAVALRY. We got 150 missionaries there and we got to do service for SEVEN HOURS. It sounds like a lot, but it was actually so much fun. We’ve been stuck inside forever and we can barely see other missionaries, so getting to see most of my friends around the mission was a real treat. Then yeah, we had straight 7 hours of picking up branches on Friday. Such a good time. I feel bad for the 100 missionaries that didn’t get to go to the service. That’s the biggest gathering of missionaries since Corona hit. The biggest group until then was about 30. And now we got over half of the missionaries in Oklahoma all together. Oh man, what a blast.

Yeah, that was truly the highlight of my week, if not this month, but you probably want to hear about all the other things that happened. Well, nothing really out of the ordinary. I was showering one morning and the shower bar just fell on me, so that was fun.

Other than those, that’s about all that’s happened with me. Just having fun teaching people here in Woodward.

Hopefully this week is filled to the brim with madness and wonders, but I can’t tell you for sure. Have a great one.
