June 23, 2014 "New Mission President"


June 24, 2014

So I am not sure what I am going to do for a bike because I don't want to spend a lot of money for a bike that I am only going to use for 4 more months so I am going to see if I can find someone to bum a bike off of for a little while.

Hey everyone! I hope you all are enjoying the summer as much as I am!! In our apartment complex they just remodeled the office and now they are serving lemonade and cucumber water. One of the ladies gave a pretty good sales pitch for it. So all summer long I should be able to get so cool refreshing liquids.

This is the last week we are with President and Sister Taylor and next week Thursday President and Sister Griffin will be here. We got our last email from the Taylor's and were able to hear of their love that they shared with us continually. One of the last principles he taught us was preparing the path for others to take their place. He is working really hard to get everyone prepared for whatever changes may occur and rules changing and policy. It makes me reflect on the area that I have had to leave and someone else was coming in to take my place. It is hard sometimes to try and not be that missionary who people get to attached to because it makes it hard for the next missionaries that come in.

Thursday after dinner we had some appointments that took about 20 mins to bike to so right after dinner we had to get biking quick to get there on time. Elder Murdock and I were having a great gospel conversation when we came around a corner on a dirt path and there was a BMX jump. My companion said hold on and started biking faster towards the jump. He went up ^ and came down and crashed. He was covered with dirt. He ended up hurting his arm but no hospital.

So things are still going well over here. Hope it's going well over there!

Love Elder Leonhardt
