Knights of Obsidian Grove

 Knights of obsidian Grove Elder Reed Helm Reed Helm Mon, Sep 30, 2024 9:12 AM  Yo was good my amazing people. This week was so wild it's been the longest and shortest week I've had out here I can't even explain. We had zone conference which was an absolute blast love seeing all the other missionary. President man only drops bars so it was pretty fire I'm not gonna lie. As always I meet the craziest people here some of which I can't tell about on here but if you wanna know I'll email you a couple story's.  👻 Story Time 👽 What is obsidian Grove? Yall obsidian Grove is this park it's actually name is orchards west it's a super pretty park kinda tucked away from the city. Besides the homeless that camp out it's like the coolest park ever. Well apparently it's a larping hot spot and so us being missionary we like to talk to a bunch of "people" well let's just say we might have stumbled into them and ended up becoming apart of obsi...

 House Keeping 🏠 Inbox Elder Reed Helm Reed Helm Mon, Sep 23, 2024  8:38 AM Hows it going ya'll. This week has been better. Still can't seem to find anyone who speaks English; but I'm getting alot of friends for our Spanish elders so I guess we be popping off someway. All the Americans here who aren't members are actually some of the craziest people ever. to give you a quick description of most the people here there ether tweakers, Satanists, Hoarder, or they like to bash you so as you can Imagine it's a party out here 😅. Ever since I have gotten here ive been a clean freak i dont know why but I cannot stand it. I have become like a mom. I clean the dishes, I pick up after the other elders, I sweep, If they don't make there beds I'll make them because I've become a crazy person. we had cleaning inspections we got an A+ i guess we are just cleaning up in this john. I think I might actually be tripping, but it's fun. We've had alot of spiritual m...

  Vancouver we are Here Inbox Elder Reed Helm Reed Helm  Mon, Sep 16, 2024 9:36 AM Holy crap yall this week has been full of so much but I don't want to make a super long email so if you want more just email me separately. Anyway flew into Vancouver Wednesday and it's been a Rollercoaster definitely lots of up and downs but I'm liking it so far. Meet so many people none of them really like us other then the members though so that's been so so fun. There are 4 other languages here and so you never know if the person you are gonna talk to speaks English but they are usually nicer then the English people. As you can imagine there are a ton of tweakers out here so that kinda throws a curveball in our work. people's main research of our church comes from a show on Hulu if you know you know. And I miss music a little bit more everyday but we still balling regardless  We met with this old grandma who was an absolute yapper and closing in on her 90s she wouldn't let us ...

Landed in Washington State

Wednesday September 11th 2024 Steve and I were just finishing up at an ACE training in Salt Lake, when Elder Reed Helm called. We were a little surprised and a little confused, BUT the mission President said the new missionaries could call their parents and let them know they landed and were safe! Reed sounded great and excited, He wasn't quite sure what was next, but he "loved how green it was there. "It made my heart happy!!! I look forward to hearing from him on his next "P" day- Monday September 16th

 2nd Week MTC we balling? Reed Helm Sat, Sep 7, 2024 7:51 AM  How is it going ya'll! I can't believe how time works here I might be genuinely be tripping. It does not feel like I only got 4 days tell I'm in the field kinda crazy. I'm definitely not ready but I'm hyped and so excited to get out of the mtc! I wish I had a super fun story to tell yall but not a lot goes on around here and my compañero has been sick all week so we've been taking it easy. I'm missing music more than ever before but, the wise man built a house upon a rock might be a certified banger!  This week we had the amazing opportunity to here from Elder Garrett W. Gong and it was absolutely incredible. One the things he said though that stuck out to me was being confident in the testimony we already have. I love that thought cause sometimes I feel like we think we have to have this huge amazing testimony and know everything but you can do powerful things with a simple testimony.  Anyway lov...
