P-day was moved to today due to a mission emergency meeting yesterday. Any way, President Mckee is being released due to sister Mckees medical needs.  On July 1 the new mission president will be coming in, President Andersen from Ogden, UT.  I didn't see it coming, except for President Mckee was only at a 1/4 of the meetings that he usually goes to...      
 
  This past week has been pretty interesting. It felt like a lazy week, but we taught the most lessons. We are getting home just exhausted.  We were teaching a friend and started to talk about the civil war. Any way, he has a confederate grave yard in his back yard. We are going to get some pictures this Thursday hopefully.
 
  Oh ya, we watched the police chase a guy on a bullet bike this Wednesday. We were having a picnic next to a fancy bridge here. We watched the police come, stop, and set up a road block at the end of the bridge. We see the guy come up, slow down to around 25 mph and just simply drive through the road block (it was pretty funny actually), then take off.  He hit 220 mph in about 7 seconds and lost every cop car in about 8 seconds from the road block. (A couple of the police radared him and were blown away at how fast the bike was).  It was like watching a drag race, only the police were on tricycles,  lol.

Baptized minister ... this Saturday we had the opportunity to see Alvin Travice be baptized. He is from Paris, TN. It was amazing to see. When he came up out of the water he yelled "HALLELUJAH! PRAISE THE LORD! THANK YOU CHRIST JESUS!!!"  It was really cool. :) It was the beginning of an amazing day; the whole rest of the day went like clock work.         

Last night we went to a part member less active family and they were home finally ... any way, we had an incredible lesson and they asked us to come back every Tuesday. Woo hoo:)  That's the gospel truth...

This week was really cool.  We had 2 baptized and a lot of friends progressing to the gospel here ...   We were not able to see Gwen get baptized.  It would have made the two year sacrifice worth it for that one event :) but our ride cancelled. BUMMer! And we could not get a ride out there in time so instead we went to our baptisms here in Franklin. Oh well. lol.
