Week 31
Everywhere You Look (Full House Theme Song)
The master photo bomber gets photo bombed
That's right! I am living in a Full house!
Transfers just happened, and that means I have a new companion, plus four more missionaries living in the house! Our zone is getting bigger and bigger! Two more came into my district, and two to the other branch. 10 in one, 6 in
Senene (grasshopper) traps. I think...
the other. I love this area!

My new companion is Elder Weight. We were in the MTC together, so that's cool. Being a district leader requires a little more effort with two more elders, but it's still fun! The great thing is that I was able to get a guitar this week! I found out that a while back a missionary left his behind, so when they went to town for transfers, Elder Denison was able to bring it back for me! So now I've been jamming out to kids songs from the Children's Songbook! I didn't realize how much skill I'd lost, but It seems to be coming back quickly with my small practice time. I can play an F bar chord again! (If you have any idea what that means...)

The work is going good. I've been having so much fun, and I am excited to see what our little band of brothers (Elders) and sisters can do this transfer! It'll be great! Hope you enjoyed my short but semi-sweet email!

Have a great week!
Love, Elder Winn

Elder Bimpeh and I

Cry Me a River...
Our reaction to no update email.
For some reason, Elder Winn's Email did not come through last week.  It showed it had sent but we did not receive it.  He forwarded the last one to me so I updated the blog with his original stuff on the top.  

But there were some things that made our hearts happy this week.  We did get some personal messages from him and a Facebook picture from President Collings.
President Collings posted this picture on his Facebook page with the comment "Great run with the Masaka Zone."  Elder Winn is peaking in.  This made me wonder if he actually ran or if he just photo bombed the picture.  President Collings assured me that he did in fact run and that he is an amazing missionary.  These are the things that make a momma's heart happy.

 Enjoying the guitar... Thanks Elder Randall!

Before he left on a mission, Elder Winn played his guitars...A LOT.  Imagine how happy I was to receive this picture of him.  He wrote "A previous missionary left it, I heard about it, and I had them bring it on transfer day."  He has been jamming to Christmas Hymns and Primary songs.

He also says "I've been trying to learn (to play piano) on the little keyboard in the chapel. I can almost play Nearer My God to Thee.  Half the bass notes on ours don't work so that makes it a little tough to know I'm reading all the notes right."


Thank you for your prayers, good thoughts, emails, letters, and other support that you have offered Elder Winn.  We are all looking forward to hearing from him next week.
