(Elder Cummings)
I'm sure y'all know and have heard about Hurricane Ida and
her terror the last couple days, please keep the greater New Orleans area and
the surrounding areas in your prayers. As of this morning, about a third of
Louisiana were without power.
Do not fret, we were evacuated way before things got crazy.
Things just got crazy in a different way. Me and 13 Elders have been crammed
into the Farmerville Elders apartment since Friday night. We have been safe the
entire time and only got some rain showers today.
This week has been crazy, and we didn't have a lot of time
to proselytize cause it's the end of the transfer, plus there was a hurricane…
For transfers(which have now been delayed a week) I'll be
moved from the Denham 2nd Ward to the Denham 1st Ward! Not much of a change,
same church building, same apartment, but new area and new companion!! My new
companion will be Elder Smith. I've been living with him for the last month and
a half and there are only a few people I love more than him. I was overjoyed
when I heard I'd be serving with him.
Anyway, hope y'all are doing well and been having good
times. I wish I had some crazy stories and miracles but the fact of the matter
is the miracle is that out of 200 missionaries, all are safe. As well as the 14
of us in one apartment aren't at each others throats yet. And that we've been
getting fed like kings.
This email has been all over the place mostly cause so is my
brain. But I do know that the Lord is in control, that nothing comes by
surprise to him, and he has a plan and a way for the Louisiana and Mississippi
areas devastated by the storm. He is aware of them. Please pray for their
safety and recovery.
Have a blessed one y'all, keep on keeping on!

Sleeping arrangements. Yes. I'm in a tanning bed. No. It
doesn't work. Yes. It's for decoration. Yes. It's cool.
