Father's Day 6/22/26

Holy cow another week has passed and I'm still only 5'10. Other than that this week was pretty good.


Monday
Went to a record store and found Zach Bryan's Deanne album for 20 bucks so now I have a vinyl to carry around for a year and a half.

Tuesday
Did exchanges in west chester and I was with Elder Armstrong. He likes robots and we ate dinner with this lady from Peru. She gave us tuna and rice and peppers and it was really good and then after I was full she walks to her oven and pulls out a whole lasagna and she puts a big old slice on my plate. I was cooked after.

Wednesday
Went to a mexican place for lunch and this dude walks in and starts talking about how he hates his job so he's trying to sell drugs full time. He just came in the store to advertise. Had some really nice lessons and one of the members Liam came out with us. Liam is the goat.

Thursday
I'm getting more and more racist towards white people. They are all so prideful out here.

Friday
Today was Juneteenth. Not sure what we celebrate on this day but there was a bunch of parades and people were outside and we found lots of people. For dinner we got invited to my first ever black cookout, wow that was fun. Tried Faygo for the first time, super overhyped. I also heard Kendrick, Kanye, J. cole and even one mac miller song.

Saturday
Went to dinner with a recent convert at Red Robin. That's about the only interesting thing that happened.

God BLESSED us with 10 friends at church today. During second hour Elder Hillam and I had to act out the David and Goliath story with our Elders quorum president. Steve brought us a "bag of goodies" to church. It was a tacklebox full of frozen burritos and a whole jar of peanut butter and jelly. I love steve. Talked to my old man after 9. My dad is actually the coolest. Wouldn't be here without him.

Crazy guy of the week
On exchanges we met this lady named Cinderella who sang us poems. I filmed one of them about happy new year.

Happy father's day to all the dads!
Elder Monroe out

Finally in the Field 9/22/25

Whats up everyone, this last week has been crazy. I wrapped stuff up at the mtc and now I'm finally in the field. The MTC Being able to leave the third member of the trio and not have to be someones mom anymore was amazing, however saying goodbye to everyone else sucked. I made a lot of new friends at the MTC and I'm gonna miss them, shoutout to the boys in district 20 N, the boys in room 121 and especially my old comp Elder Carter.  There were like 25 kids going from the MTC to Philly so we definetly got some weird looks while we were at the airport. We had a bunch of delays so we didn't get to Philly until pretty late. Despite that they still loaded everyone into some vans and drove us to the mission home to meet the Mission President. Brother and sister Corbridge were super welcoming and kind. After they gave us dinner we loaded back up and slept in a hotel. The next day was crazy, I had to do a bunch of classes where I found out how everything works, then President Corb...

Been a good week, did some stuff. Monday Last P day of the transfer and we spent it with the other elders in the district. Went to Valley Forge and saw George Washington's house and church. Went to mission BBQ and this lady named Ellie who always gives us free food said goodbye to the Elders that were leaving. Went to the mall and bought a hat. Tuesday First day of the new transfer. We were late to transfers because Elder Hillam didn't start packing until this morning. Picked up my new comp Elder Gosman. Ate a cheesesteak. Wednesday Lead district council with my fly down the whole time. Some might say I'm a visible leader  Thursday Had a lady flirt with us pretty hard at a McDonalds but nothing really happened today. Friday Nothing too crazy happened today either. The bishop fed us pizza though. Saturday Taught the whole day it was awesome. We just went from lesson to lesson nonstop. It also dumped rain which is nice in July but I walked a hole through one of my shoes so my...
