Week 8: That old Jeep came in handy...

Hello Again,

Transfers are this week.  I am staying in my area!! Elder Palmer is the new assistant so I'll be getting a new companion.  I'll miss him but he'll do awesome!! It's nice being companions with the zone leaders we get to do exchanges once or twice a week. I get to work with other missionaries and learn different ways to do the work.

Earlier this week we saw a guy working on his car so I went and talked to him and asked what was wrong and it was something I had fixed in the jeep so I told him what he needed to get and do to make it work and then I gave him a Book of Mormon and a card with our number on it.  He called us a couple days later and told me what I suggested to do on his car worked and that he wanted to hear our message!!

Today we just played sports with our zone,(the sisters made me pumpkin cookies and made me a card for my birthday) we went to Five Guys for lunch, thanks for the gift card Mom and Dad! and this morning i opened my presents!! Its been a good day! At 5 we have a dinner with a member!!
I am glad I get to be serving and doing the Lord's work today!  Thank you all for the birthday emails!  I meant a lot!

The Gospel is real!  The Book of Mormon is true!

Love,
Elder Bryce Apgood

Week 5: A Man on the Porch

Hello Everyone! This week was pretty lax! just the normal contacting and handing out copies of the Book of Mormon.  We had a trainer- trainee meeting with the president and I got to see all my MTC buddies!! That was really cool!! As for my week its been pretty normal! There was one guy I'd given a card to before that we saw on his porch.  We went up to him and talked to him and he was very interested.  We talked for about 15 minutes, gave him a Book of Mormon and asked him to read the intro, and then started to walk away.  I felt prompted to go back and ask to bring up Mormon.org on his phone (he was watching Netflix when we walked up)  He let me pull it up and I explained what is was about and asked him to look through it and watch some of the videos.  2 days later we were in the same neighborhood and saw him on his porch again.  We decided to go up to him and as we got closer we saw he was reading something or on his phone again.  As we got ...

Week 10: Happy Halloween

Happy Halloween,  This week was insane!! Good and bad!! We had 2 amazing days in a row.  We decided to make a goal to find someone or get a referral for each one of us this week.  We prayed and asked for help finding 3 people we could get in with and baptize this transfer.  That day we came in contact with at least 5 solid people. One we gave to the sisters and she is doing awesome! The others we are getting in with today and at our trunk or treat. Some members invited their neighbors and we gave them a church tour.  They are now wanting to learn more and THEY asked us how long it takes until they can get baptized! We have gotten at least 1 referral a day! God really blesses you when you turn to him and ask for help.  Now onto the bad(ish) part of my week.  On Friday I was emergency exchanged to Clarksville. The elders there weren't doing well with each other and the assistants had to go and keep the peace until we could get there.  They called ...

Week 3: Maryland Bound

Hi everyone!!   I won't be able to write much this week.  We aren't having an official Pday since we are leaving  tomorrow .   4 elders from our district left  this morning. That was kinda sad. You create a strong bond with one  purpose and grow so close within days and then after a couple weeks we  have to all separate. It sucks!  This week has been really good  though!! I still kinda have a cold, but it is getting better. I  also don't really want to leave the MTC! I am so excited to get to  Maryland though!!!!    We did floral  Friday  with our ties  and We did a tie signing  with one of our teachers!!! That was cool and I got his tie because he  liked mine and wanted to trade!!  I got a haircut  on Saturday .  That was the most violent and fastest haircut I've ever gotten!!! I just want to share that I know this gospel is true and that Christ is our Savior ...
