Ames, Ames, Ames!

I have got about zero time today. I know I've been awful about writing these past couple weeks. But today I have a real excuse. I'm leaving Fairfield and in the process it's been a little crazy. I'm headed to Ames Iowa!!! Woot woot!! I'm super excited to go and meet more people and experience the joy of change and goal setting. New transfer=new goals! I love it! Elder Anderson is staying here and will get another comp that just finished training so hopefully Fairfield doesn't burn to the ground!;)


This week was good. We were seeking out inactive people in our ward and knocked our way into an older woman who lives at home with her daughter. They had us come in and then I was forced to play their organ so we could all "sing praises to Jesus" were the words of the daughter. It was a ball of fun haha! They are great people. But very VERY crazy. But that's nothing new for the floating people of Fairfield Iowa. I'm kind of glad to maybe get a little bit of normalcy in my new area. Ames Ames Ames!!! 

Quick good scripture is Mormon 9:17!! God is a God of miracles. If you find yourself looking for a miracle in your life, better become more faithful because that's the catalyst for miracles. In fact the bible dictionary tells us that once faith ceases, miracles cease as well! 

But yes, onto Ames! I'll write better next week I promise!!

SEE YA!

Love,

Elder Hixon

SKIP BO!

 


For as long as I can remember our Simon has had a way with the elderly ladies in our world. I don’t know what it is but he loves them and they love his dimples. So it wasn’t a big surprise when we got this picture from Iowa with his Tuesday and Saturday evening skip bo group. He is just our favorite!
