Mauri From The Other Side Of The Country

Hello Everyone! I can no longer say "How is America treating y'all" because well..if you didn't know, I am in New Jersey Now. Yep That's right, I have resumed the mission life. Just this time in a different part of the world. Hopefully, I will be able to return to the wonderful and absolutely amazing islands of Kiribati, but until then I will serve the people of New Jersey.

Fun Fact for you all:

-Our mission has the most car accidents out of any mission. So if that's not cool I don't know what is haha. 

-The Statue Of Liberty is actually in New Jersey, Not New York

-The City Of Lakewood (which I live in) in known for having the most car accidents in the country

Some of you are probably wondering what the whole dealio with the corona is over here, well I will tell ya. We are not allowed to go outside and visit people, or tract, or get together with other missionaries haha. Don't worry we get a couple breaks throughout the day to go outside and play around or to just get some sun. Basically, all we do is call people, cause that's the extent of what we can do. It's definitely something to get used to for missionary work and just life normally because I'm so used to being outside almost all day everyday.

Our area is pretty big. You could fit the entire island of Tarawa (the main Island of Kiribati) a couple times. I am in the area that has the Beach and the Ocean, so that's pretty sweet. The only bummer thing is that we are not allowed to go to it. My companion (Elder Mortenson from Highland Utah) said that missionaries are allowed to go there during the winter because that's when people aren't there in their swimsuits.

Well that's the update of where I am and what I'm doing. Hope You All have a Great Week!!

Sorry There's no cool survivor pictures, the closest thing I can get to that here is...Well I will have to figure that out haha.

I Tangiringkami!
