Elder Caden Kapp: Elliott and Hiking

Hi everyone!

This last week was another great week and this upcoming week should be great. Sadly my companion finishes his mission this week so I'll be getting a new one. Until then I'll probably be in a trio with some of the other missionaries so we'll be double-covering areas. But we'll cross that bridge in a couple of days.

At the start of the week, we went on exchanges with Tennant Creek. For the exchanges, I went with Elder Liprott and we went to Elliott. So Tennant is 5 hours north and Elliott is 2 hours north of that. The exchange went very well. We were able to teach some friends and the members. Play rugby with the kids in town. And also hold family home evening at one of the members' homes. So overall a good exchange. Lots of driving and driving in the dark was sketchy will all the cows but we made it.

The day after we got back from the exchange, my companion had a 5 hour zoom meeting with all the missionaries finishing their missions. Let me say, there's only so much one can do in 5 hours. But we made it. After that the work was pretty much the same as usual. We've had really good lessons with our friends on date. Two came to church on Sunday which was great. The other two we're working with them but they're looking good and it looks like they'll meet their date in December.

One crazy story was a service we had this week. We go during the week to check it out and she asked us to clean out the weeds against her fence. Her backyard is the literal bush and she told us she wants them removed because of all the brown snakes. So yeah that was that. So we went over and I saw a snake in literally five minutes. Luckily it was the only one. The lady's name was Zoe and she is actually pretty cool. Hopefully we'll start teaching her soonish. We'll see the will of the Lord.

Spiritual thought: "48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." I love this scripture because it just talks about our true potential being children of God. We need to work and exercise faith and God will bless us for it.

Well I love you all. Hope you all have a great week. Sorry I'm bad at emails. And I'll love emails from you all.
