Spokane, WA- Shiloh Hills/Marshallese- Week #26

No pics from Logan this week....but found this posted on Facebook...P-day bball

Well everyone it once again has been a really freaking hard week for your boy Elder Scott out here in the Washington Spokane Mission!! Holy Cow man im glad it is over though! Or maybe it isnt over who knows...These are the Questions that haunt me!! Anyways so the reason why this week has been so hard is that my good friend and probably my favorite companion EVER! Elder Lundberg went home early Saturday morning...That was really a tough pill for me to swallow!! I just feel like my Mission is just sending all of the good friends i make out here home!! (First Elder Wilson and now Elder Lundberg!!) Thats just what it seems!! But its really starting to look up!! I think before i left i prayed for a memorable mission and the Lord is for sure giving that to me right now!!! I did the math and in the first 6 Months of my Mission (4 Transfers) ive had 2 areas and 8 companions!! I have had 6 of those companions all up here in Shiloh Hills!! Its about to be 9 next week!! 😂 Man the Lord is testing me!! So with Elder Lundberg gone you might ask "Logan where are you serving or even living at right now??" Well sir or maam just let me tell you illl get there!! I am serving in the Marshallese Area right now!! "But Logan you dont speak Marshallese!" Maam calm down a little i know i know wait a second! 😂 But yep just for this week i am serving in the Marshallese Branch!! I think that it is pretty cool!! I have never known that trying to follow a language for  a 3 hour block of church would be so exhausting!! Take my word for it i didnt have to do any translating or anything like my Marshallese companions did and i was still exhausted after!!! 😂 So with Elder Lundberg leaving this week it was a lot of goodbyes to all of our investigators and member families that we taught!! I'll be honest that was pretty hard to be a part of all those conversations!! Like im not even the one going home but i feel like i wanted to!! (Just kidding that was a joke i do not want to come home!!) Yeah so all the Subway people had a meeting at 8 AM on Saturday and right after their meeting was over all of Subway came over to come say goodbye to Elder Lundberg!! I thought it was so cool!! But they all said its going to be much harder when i have to leave because i have been the only constant one that has been here for the last 3 or 4 months!! Im so not ready for that!! So yeah sorry about the whole not a lot of positivity today its really been freaking crazy!!! But Marshallese work is pretty cool they drive all around Spokane!! I think i know the city really freaking well now!! HAHA well this is the last week of the transfer!! Pray for all this craziness to end!!! 😂 Well I love you all and you bet your bucket that i am taking all this crap on like Kuzko!! (If you read my group email last week you will understand!) All i can say now is just Bring it on!!! 😂 I love you all so much!! Keep killing it out there my friends and Familia!!! Love you all talk to you all next week!!

Love

ELDER LOGAN SCOTT :) 

Mom,

Wow! That sounds like a week chuck full of stuff!! Thats awesome though!! I love what Dad is doing for Ayden and Jaret to pay off their tickets!! Thats hilarious!! i love that so much!!! YESSSSSS!!! I really really really want them both to run for office!!! That would make their Senior Year so awesome!!!! Im so excited for that!!!! I hope that they both make it for sure!!!! They would really kill it and that would be awesome!!! But yes Jaret does love to scrap by!!! And its hilarious!!! They both are going to be like me in Office i feel it!!! 😂  It sounds like Kennah is adjusting well i like the sound of that for sure!!! What are you planning on doing for your buisness?? Its about time you decide to do something like that!!! Youre gonna do so good Mom!!!! Man i miss snowboarding though!! There is a ton of snow up here and it is snowing right now as we speak!!! And i cant do anything with it and it sucks!! 😂  Dang!! Jared is really going to do good in the Deacons Quorum!! Thats like right before Pres gets in there right?? The Deacons need someone like Jared in there hes gonna do so good!! NO WAY....... That was like the worst news i could have heard right now.... Man that makes me so sad!! No way..... I dont even know what to say! Really?? Ryan comes home today?!? Dangit he was doing so good and he was just crushing the game!! He only had like 6 months left! Dangit he was so close!!!!! Man my heart hurts for him too so i guess hes staying home for good huh? I thought that i would have 6 months to prepare for Ryan to come home but i guess it has to be right now to prepare for that!! But yeah i think Jace really needs someone there for him right now too! Hes going to be so happy and sad to hear this news! Man im so happy that he is home though!! Its a lot better for him to be home than out there struggling and crawling to finish!! He bets his bucket that he did his duty!! Im proud of him!! The reason why i say that it is the worst news i could have heard is because this week has been really crazy for me too! Elder Lundberg went home 2 days ago on saturday! That was really hard for me too because we were just so tight and really good friends and its really hard to see them go! The Mission is just sending everyone that im close to out here home now! (Elder Wilson first, Now Elder Lundberg) and now Ryan! So i have been moved to the Marshallese area for this week then i will be getting a new companion next week and moving back down to the Empire house (That is if i stay in Shiloh Hills for another transfer!) Which is most likely because i am the only one that is here right now but still you just never know! Ive done the math yesterday that in 6 months out on my mission in 2 areas and 4 transfers i have moved 7 or 8 times now and I have had 8 companions! and i have had 7 of them in the last 12 weeks! So it has been for sure hard for me! I have been kind of struggling with all of this lately but have no fear there is always something good to pull from it! I am kind of learning some Marshallese now! I was exhausted all yesterday! Who knew that trying to follow a language that you dont understand for 3 hours would make you so exhausted!! I didnt!! I got to watch quite a bit of football on saturday (just because members had it on in their house when we got there! We got to watch the Seahawks and the Lions play and the Texans and the Raiders play!! It was honestly a tender mercy from the Lord himself!! (The Raiders though?? They were a joke like 2 years ago!!!) Any ways thats my week yeah thats about it! Thanks for all your prayers and everything i really feel them while im out here! I honestly hope Ryan emails me today then so i can at least talk to him! Give him a hug for me and tell him im proud and i love him!! Youre the best mom!! Tell everyone i love them!!! 😘😊
