Surprise Vacation! Sent May 14th

Hey everyone!

   So, this week was the last week of the transfer, and I got a call last Saturday night, so just more than a week ago that I'd have to go to Guadeloupe this week for visa and legalization stuff. I was supposed to leave on Tuesday, and get back Friday. I was a little sad because It was probably my last week with Elder Anderson, and I was missing half of it. But anyway, I left Tuesday and everything was going good. And now I'm gonna insert in a little bit of life advice. If you get an email saying you have an appointment on Wednesday the 10th, but Wednesday is actually the 9th, don't just assume that your appointment is on Thursday the 10th. Double check, because it might actually be on Wednesday. And, just hypothetically of course, the legalization place might be closed from thursday to sunday that week, and so you need to stay until monday to have your appointment. And once you figure that out the first plane back to your area might not be until Wednesday, so you might have to stay for 8 days instead of 3, and you won't even get the chance to say goodbye to your favorite companion becuase he leaves Wednesday morning too. So yeah, there's your advice. Take it or leave, but if you don't mind, could someone pass it on to Elder Anderson too, becuase I won't be seeing him again anytime soon.

   Haha, so that pretty much sums up my week. I was with some fun Elders here though, so we had a good time. And I also got to skype home yesterday, which was sweet! Thanks everyone for all the love and support, and sorry, no pictures this week. Love you all!

Love, Elder Kerr


NOTE FROM HOLLY -   We got to see and talk with McKade yesterday for his Mother's Day call.  He looked and sounded great.  He said he was super happy and that he is loving his mission.  It was so great to see his smiling face, to hear his voice and to laugh with him.

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
