Hey everyone,

Not a whole lot to talk about this week. But we did have the confirmation of Nate Jones and i was the one who got to confirm him it was really neat.

I love this work and know it is the work of the lord and he has his hand in all of it.

Dear family and friends,

I love Florida it's the best I really want to stay here forever and don't even want to go home at all sorry mom. Florida and the humidity have grown on me and i love love love it. The singles ward is bomb and the members are super sweet and we baptize like every week it really is a lot of fun. The best part is that heavenly father has given us so many blessings it's ridiculous. He's been such a help in our work and showing us miracle upon miracle in just this one week.

Good news Nate Jones just got baptized Sunday it was great and next week we will be baptizing Olivia Bell. Now Olivia Bell is probably one of the coolest self referrals ever. We were in president's interviews and she just walked in the church and wanted to learn more. So we gave her a church tour and immediately challenged her for baptism and she accepted for the twenty fifth of April. K now we told her that because she's making this decision the devil was going to try hard to keep her from attending church. We were right things came up left and right trying to hold her back but again and again the lord helped her as the both of us prayed for her and helped her overcome the concerns. The lord is amazing and a god of miracles and it definitely was a miracle that she made it to church. We are so excited to see her get baptized this Sunday it's going to be great.

That seriously is just one of the thousands of blessings we've recieved this week. Thank you for all your prayers i love you all.

Dear family,

Oh my goodness i'm working now in the Young single adults ward holy cow. It's crazy and really tough, i have so many responsibilities that it really is impossible to have a normal day every day has a new excitement or something else stepping in our way. For example we got a phone call on Tuesday morning asking us to go and check on the sisters because one of the sisters being transferred took her phone with her and the others didn't call their district leader to let him know that they were in so we were asked to go check up on them. So we had to drive twenty miles just to get there to check on them and twenty minutes back it really is just crazy.

luckily the best part about this week was not that my companion had a constant migrane and i had to stay in going crazy inside but that even though he did we got our investigator to church and he'll be getting batized next weekend.

If you all can keep Nate Jones in your prayers we greatly appreciate it because he is the bomb we love him so much. We are pumped to see him get baptized. Tonight we are going with him to serve the homeless something he invited us to he really is the best. I love you all and thank you for your prayers thanks so much.

Dear Beloved Family,

As you probably notice every time I write there's some type of theme in it. This week the theme is humility it really is my favorite nnnnnnnnnnoooooooooootttttttttt. I guess that's why i had it.

On Monday a member called me out completely shattered my pride to where i was very very angry with him holding it all within. But as i really began to think about it i recognized the promise that god gives that he will not give us commandments or challenges to big to face. So when i thought of that i turned to well what does the lord want me to learn from this. When i did i noticed that what he said was in answer to my prayers. I wanted to know what was holding me back and he showed me it was pride. I hope everyone will look at themselves and ask if you are letting pride hold you back. Word of advice let it go. The joy and love you experience is priceless god can then open you the windows of heaven and pour you out blessings. You can know his will just as Ronald Rasband.

Well I'm getting transferred to the Orlando area into the singles ward oh oh no. Well see how that goes.

Love Elder Judd

p.s. Thanks Kenneth Bennion for the email well said sorry i can't email you back
