Hello! 

Well, this is the moment you've all been waiting for. I took pictures. I brought my converter. It is all in the computer working properly. So instead of sending a long boring email with no pictures, I'll send a short boring email with pictures. Yay! I'll just briefly describe my week, and bear a little testimony too.

This was transfer week, which means drive to and from the airport a million times for us, haha. It was fun to be with the missionaries going home, so that was cool. And it was really sad to drop off Elder Steed. I really loved being his companion, but I know he'll do great things in his new area. And now I'm with Elder Newman, who is super awesome, and also my same height, so that's nice. I'm super excited for this transfer though, some good things are gonna happen. 

I just want to share a cool experience that happened this week. I was kind of nervous that Elder Steed was
leaving, because he has been in Barbados for 10 months, and knew everything so good, and I've only been here for one transfer. So leading the area and doing the other stuff we have to do without Elder Steed was kind of scary. I felt a little worried and stressed after dropping Elder Steed off. But then my first real day with Elder Newman we taught a lady named Shakeena for the first time, and it was an AWESOME lesson. It was so great, and we taught with really good unity. And then that night we had a meeting with President Fisher about what we'll do this transfer, and all of us felt so pumped up and excited. As I was sitting in the meeting I realized that I felt completely at ease and calm again, and that God was giving me a couple tender mercies just to remind me that He was there with me and was going to help me. I might not have Elder Steed anymore to help me, but I have my Heavenly Father, and that made me feel really great. It was cool to see how He comforted me when I needed it. I know that He loves all of you too and is willing to comfort all of you too if you just pray for his help, and then do what you can to follow Him.

Well, thanks so much for reading that not so short email, haha. Have a great week everyone! Love you all!

Love, Elder Kerr

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
