Week 4 - June 17, 2019

Hey guys, I'm allowed to send an email today to let you know that "I'm alive." I'll say more on Monday, but I'm in El Paso, my companion is Elder Shepherd, and I'm doing alright. Talk to you soon(ish)!

Love,
Elder Coleman

Hey Everyone! The MTC is great! I mean, it's kind of hard and it's very busy, with not much free time except for p-days, and even then, there's things we have to do that can eat up a decent amount of time.

It was 8° this morning when we went outside, and warmed up to 25ish° by the time we got to the neighboring city for P-day. It's also been snowing some, so we had a white Christmas, which was a first for one of my companions (from California). I'm in a trio now, which is a first for me, so that's cool.

This transfer sure flew by for me! We've had a lot of holidays recently, and they've been fun! For Thanksgiving, we ate four Thanksgiving dinners and could have gone to two more, but we were pretty full. For Christmas Eve, we went to an event on the Taos Pueblo with a member, where there were a bunch of big bonf
