Our First Month at Big Woods by Carson
Hello everybody! It's been a while, hasn't it? It's been a very busy month of September, but it's been full of joy, mosquitos, and formation. Leaving Missouri was sad, but our farm friends showed up around 5:00 in the morning to say goodbye to us. It was a very joyful send off! Heading down to Louisiana, we made a detour into Memphis to check out a pay it foward rock climbing gym that was really cool. We also got to have breakfast (and talk a little about our mission) with our friend Mr. Jonathan, Mrs. Pauline, and their son Mr. Patrick at their restaurant, Brother Juniper's, which was really nice. They were so kind as to pay for our meal, and even gave us some bread to take with us! (It was delicious, Mr. Patrick!) Arriving at Big Woods in Louisiana the next day we were greeted by many fellow and familiar missionaries, who quickly helped us unload our van full of luggage. This was so nice, as it would have taken us forever to do it ourselves. Our apartment is next
