French is Weird! Sent January 15, 2018

Hey everyone!
So I'm officially in a French country! It's pretty cool here! I'm also on a French keyboard, so to ,ake it easier on myself I'll just do an email with lots of short random things from this week.
I left St. Martin on Wednesday and got here on Saturday. I was in martinique the rest of the time, and that was a party.
My new companion is named Elder Griffin, and he is great!
I'm driving a stick shift. All those crappy hours working at the cemetary this past summer are finally paying off! Also, the roads here are way bigger than the roads on the islands, so it is a lot less stressful learning stick here than it would have been there.
French is hard, haha. But I'm trying my best and hopefully I will improve fast!
We went door contacting for a couple hours last night, with no success almost the whole time. But my companion had a lot of faith and said a miracle was gonna happen. And the very last door in the building we were knocking opened up, and a man let us in. And he already had a Book of Mormon! He had kind of just found it, and didn't know what it was, but he was reading it anyway. He said we could come back and tell him more about it. It was a total miracle!
Iù, just gonnq type this sentqnce hoz <i zould on qn q,ericqn keyboqrd so you nkoz hoz hqrd it reqlly is to type on this piece of gqrbqge.
I love you all, have a great week!
Love, Elder Kerr

Barbados / Sent Jan. 28, 2019

Hello! Well, here I am, finally where all of you thought I've been this whole time. Barbados. It's pretty cool here. Also, the keyboards are normal english keyboards again, so here I am struggling to type again, haha. So this might not be a super long email, but I'll try to give you a little overview of this past week, because it was pretty weird. I left Guadeloupe on Tuesday, and got to Barbados at around 8pm. We have a pretty big apartment, or a small house more accurately, because we share it with the zone leaders, but there were 8 people sleeping there because everyone is moving around for transfers and waiting for flights or companions and stuff. Then Wednesday we mostly were driving to and from the airport dropping people off and picking people up, and then that evening we got to be at the mission home with the missionaries going home, so we ate and chilled with them, and had a little testimony meeting. It was cool. Then we had to get up early, 5am, to d...

"You're paying for that!" / Sent Sept. 10, 2018

Hello! Hey, how are you all? I hope you're all doing great! This week was pretty slow, but still good. I guess some weeks are like that. But anyway, something kind of scary and interesting happened this week. We were contacting a lady, and it was actually going pretty good, but she was one of those people who can just talk forever. I'm not kidding, there are some people here who will just talk all day long about n'importe quoi (I'm not really sure how to say that in english, haha. Just basically random stuff that's not important.) Anyway, at the end of the contact she just went off and started talking about so much random stuff about her life and God and her family, and it was good, but she was probably talking for almost 10 minutes straight without letting us say anything. We were standing on her porch, and after a few minutes I started to kind of zone out a little bit and stopped really paying a lot of attention. But then she looked me straight in the eyes, ...

Hey everyone! I'm just gonna send pictures this week instead of writing about my week. I'll just tell you that we only managed to teach two of the 15 lessons we had planned, so we did a lot of contacting, haha. Those two lessons were really good though. So was the contacting. Kind of, haha.  Have a great week, and hopefully pictures actually load today! Love you all! The church is true!  Love, Elder Kerr
