Soo, Transfers are this week, and I was positive I was staying in Two Rivers/ Manitowoc. I've only been here for 1 transfer! But nope, President threw a curve ball and im headed to the Heart of Milwaukee! My new address is 2588 N Frederick Ave #107, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53211. My comps name is Elder Goldsberry, I'm super stoked. It should be fun!

shipping must have worked, because both of them said they would start coming back to church, and they even showed up this week! We were able to establish a very good relationship with them in a short amount of time. It was really needed. 

Speaking of President Williams, we were able to have a short meeting with him on Saturday. He
