Sister Reid from Farmington, New Mexico! She isn’t in my district or zone but we just got to talking and she said she was from where I was going so that’s awesome haha.

These are the elders and sisters I met on the plane. They were all going home and I was the only one going out. They were all so nice and didn’t much care for the no hugs rule at this point 😂

So this is my whole district, it’s cool we all get along, and Elder Anderson is super easy to lift. 😂😂 so ill say who everyone is based on the last picture going from left to right, Elder Rouché’ from Farmington, Utah; Elder Lee(he is actually pretty young) 😂from Syracuse, Utah; Elder Marble from Tennessee; elder, well that’s me. Awkward. Uhhh; elder Anderson up top, he loves Hamilton almost as much as I do and I forget where he is from; elder Rhoades from Idaho; behind him my companion elder Howlett from Anchorage, Alaska; elder straddling (laughs like Marty’s dad I’m back to the future) from, uhh somewhere in Utah; elder Christmas in the back(he was also born on Christmas!) from somewhere in Utah; and last but not least elder Kelsey (we call him dad) from Folsom, California. 
And for the sisters on the left is sister Lau (she likes to stare at me but uh, she’s nice. Comes from a town of 600 people so I figure she is overwhelmed); then sister Payne from Utah again (oh and her and sister Lao will be going to the California Modesto mission with elder Anderson and elder marble!); then sister Munk(all the elders are obsessed with her especially my companion but she has a boyfriend back home and he has a girlfriend 😅 so uhh we will see how it plays out?); and then sister Walker (she is super funny and sweet and she likes Hamilton which is cool, oh and her and sister Munk will also will be going to Farmington with me, elder Howlett, elder Kersey, and elder rhoades).

Hey everyone! Have I mentioned I miss you? oh, well just in case, I MISS YOU! How is everything at home going? Also, I am still sick but also still having a blast. Been able to do a lot of progress and meet with a lot of people. Sadly one of our investigators is doing everything but coming to church so we may have to move her baptismal date back. I'm super tired and busy but love every minute of it. We have grown very close with this ward and this town. Yesterday we had a kinda movie night with the ward missionaries, less-active members and bishop tanner. We watched meet the mormons and it was great! Good food and great people, all thanks to Sister Riley opening her house to people. I don't know much else to say, Just keep us in your hearts and prayers so we can help serve those in this area. If you all want to send some letters as well, I'll allow it haha.          With love, Elder Sommerville oh yeah.... I almost forgot! We saw and went into an investigators bunker i

First Week in the Field!

Okay, so I don't have much time. I'll better plan my emailing hour next week and do this first but here goes. I'm in Gallup, New Mexico for my first area with Elder Johnson. Sadly we did not get any pictures yet. I love my companion, area, and ward. Everyone is so nice and caring and our dinner schedule is already practically full! Me and Elder Johnson, in an effort to save money and lose weight are dieting together, which is hard with all the dinners but we'll figure it out. It hasn't snowed yet which bugs me a bit but I suppose is alright. I'll allow it for now. anyways, I was sick last week, got over it on the way to new mexico, and first night got super sick again so I'm trying to fight off a cough now but thats okay because i'm mostly past the sickness. Been working hard, not hardly working. Met a lot of people and love each one of them. have been teaching one lady named Valerie and her kids and just broke through to her boyfriend when the next m

20:..... SOOOOOOO.... Interesting News

So Quick story,  Monday  morning I'm at a member's home and President Adams calls me, asks if we can meet at  1:00  or  noon . I say  1:00  because I am planning on emailing at  noon . So I did, I emailed you all about the ER and stuff. After I go to meet with President Adams and he Hands me my Itinerary and says I'm going home because I need to take care of my health and they just can't help me enough in the field. So, I'm home now! I'm also very conflicted, I am happy to be home and see friends and family. However, I'm sad because I miss the mission and every one in it. Yet, I know that my Heavenly Father has a plan for me and there is a reason other than just sickness for me to be here and learn something or help someone. Or Both. I know President and Sister Adams did everything they could to help me and they truly loved me enough and cared for me enough to do what Heavenly Father has told them I need. I love and appreciate them and everyone in my mission
