Cooked in the "COUVE"

Reed Helm Mon, Dec 29, 2025, 9:20 PM How is it Goin everyone!! I have been super good this week. Lowkey one of the fastest weeks on my mission by far!  I dont have much to report on we saw an Eagle cook a squirrel in the middle of the road, got bashed by some Ukranian guy and can speak a little Chuuk so you could say it was a pretty chill week in Washington.  Spiritual thought of the week, this week really seemed to refocus my attention on being intentional, celebrating the small victories, persistence and blessings never cease. Im very grateful for All the people i meet ive learned that no matter who they are they can teach you something. Always take the opportunity to learn no matter what, where, or when God will always teach you something. I love you all and am very grateful for all the support i get! Peace out until the new year -Elder Helm 

 Reed Helm Mon, Dec 22, 2025, 8:07 PM Yall i made it out of Aberdeen and am back to the Vancouver area and im loving it! As much as im gonna miss seeing and interacting with all the tweakers....im not. And let me tell you this is the promised land!  The zone that im with is so sick a bunch of islanders volleyball and pickleball grind is real! God has truly blessed me up 🙏 the area im in is Burton which is 10 min from my first area and 15min from my second area so it feels like im back at home!  Life is great and im so glad to continue serving especially around this Christmas time! I hope you all have an amazing Christmas this week! 

 Reed Helm  Mon, Dec 15, 2025, 9:16 PM Yes im finally getting transferred so thats good i guess ive been in this area for 6 months but its flown by and i lowkey dont remember anything thats happened so... yeah  Not much else to report on and as much as i love writing these emails im not feeling it so it might be short. (Spiritual thought) Whats a testimony? Ive been thinking about this for a long time especially cause fast Sunday always comes around and as much as i love the wonderful experiences sometimes they get a little long so i put some thought and prayer to it and decided to me a testimony is simple. Although baring a testimony is of the things that you know you feel (personal feelings not Doctrine) it should be directed at what you hope the people will come to know. So instead of saying i know the Bool of Mormon to be true a simple flip to i hope you know the truthfulness of the book of Mormon it fullfills your view while expressing the importance of what you hope...

 Reed Helm  Mon, Dec 8, 2025, 9:47 PM This has been the most magnificent week ever...i dont actually think that but its a good way to start off the email. This week if i had to rate it on a scale from one to ten like a solid 6 so it was good i guess. Lots of fun interactions with people i street contacted this bro and got us onto a podcast so....if i end up getting sent home because this bro clipped somthing out of context that would suck but it probably wont happen.....anyways not much to report on washington is still wet so thats good but yeah.  Gonna keep this email short and hopefully half decent i listened to this talk by Dale g Renlund it was gas totally got chastised cause of my thick skull and am now learning a great deal so thats fire the message talks alot about our Agency and the ability to become something greater each day when we choose to act so if you want a good talk to listen to ill link it below!  Yall are the best and hope this week is a 7/10! Its ...

 Reed Helm Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 5:13 PM What is good my wonderful people?? Hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful. if not sorry better luck next year. Some brief highlights of my week would probably be Mud sliding after the Turkey bowl, flushing some Meth down a sink, and eating tons and tons of food!  I had the most amazing opportunity to cut an Elders hair this week. As this poor Elder comes to me after he attempted to cut his own hair it was apparent he was in critical condition. This Elder had taken the clippers to the back of his head with no guard or mirror it was atrocious when i say bad it looked like someone had scalped half his head. Well i went in and preformed a perfect procedure.....i Buzzed his head 😂 but it's ok cause he can rock it! He will be fine.  ⚠️ Spiritual Thought ⚠️ In our ward this week we had a missionary come back from his mission and he gave us a wonderful Homecoming talk and while he was speaking he mentioned something that stuck out to me and i w...
