 Yooo its elder bush! How is everyone? Make sure to send me emails if you haven't 

Yes i missed sending an email last week, yes it will probably happened quite a bit. I am surprised that i have missed emails this soon in my mission but it is what it is

Its very busy in new york and there is lots of work to be done, so much work that sometimes it even feels like whats the point in starting 

I feel like i was pretty unfocused this past week, and maybe thats because it was general conference but there are no excuses, need to lock back in

Some fun things that have happend and that i got a new volleyball shipped to me! You already know that has been a saving grace and also a major distraction 

We helped a guy move in to the city which we were pretty upset when we found out that he was not even going to live in our area, idk why he asked US to help, but hey doing the lords work.
We were not expecting anything in return but this guy was really cool, and he worked for nike before coming here so in payment he gave every elder that came and helped a pair of nike shoes! Hopefully i will remember to take a picture of them and put them in my Google photos 

Which is right here for anyone who hasn't joined yetttt

We have alot of people that we have been teaching but no one is ready for baptism yet 

I also finished the book of mormon! I began at the start of this transfer and im already done! Its such a good book and reading it again grew my testimony that its so true! Even if you dont believe that the book of mormon is the word of God, if you abide by the precepts in this book you will live a happier and better life.

I promise.

I still dont really know how to live out here yet 
but im getting more adjusted to this lifestyle 
By no means is it comfortable tho
I miss my dog 
And i miss all of you 
But the field is white already to harvest 

Love you all! 
Elder Bush

  Lets gooooooo  Yessir its elder bush back with another super short email  Alot has happened since the last time I emailed so i will try to remember as much as i can... My new companion who i haven't talked much about is so chill, and its very nice to have a comp that is super chill Not that my old comp wasn't, im just very grateful that i haven't gotten a super strict one yet... but i know it will happen soon  My comp (elder tatton) is the district leader so its weird to be what the mission calls a district leader wife He is very good at missionary work  But sometimes this makes me remember of how much more room i have to grow... Im not comparing me to my comp that much, its just that i want to be as good as him one day but i dont know how to do that yet... there are many skills i need to work on! I think it probably just comes with constant effort and alot of time  Anyways its been so good to try to learn from him Hes a dawg Its has been warming up here ...

  Hello! Its elder bush baby  I got transferred to Brooklyn this week!  After i sent the email last week i got the call that i would be leaving Jamaica queens to go finish my training somewhere else! So crazy Im not gonna lie i miss jamaica and the missionaries over there, i am in a way smaller district now so its not as much crazy Fun things that happened this week  I pranked one of the other missionaries in the Jamaica district before leaving queens, its smart because idk if he will ever be able to get me back because i left  Video will be on my google photos Hopefully its PG... Also idk if you can tell during the video but i wasn't fast enough  and i got tackled by elder sherwood, the syrup clean up was still worth it I was laughing to hard to get away... https://photos.app.goo.gl/ sLSPmjCSafi2kN9N7 Brooklyn is alright so far, some really good pizza over here.

  I was dreading this day I knew it was coming though  Ive heard the stories of missionaries getting destroyed by birds... sometimes these stories kept me up at night The fateful day final came... I was fulfilling my purpose on the streets one day... and then it happened  A bird choose me as the place where it wanted to release its meal Sorry its been a long time since I sent one of these! Its been a busy transfer so far! Alot of success and a lot of failures  Its been so fun to learn how to take the next steps as a missionary  We have been working with so many cool people! So hopefully we will see some people making covenants soon... New companion elder gurr, is so funny  He knows so much deep doctrine its fun to have late night conversations with him, this also makes him one of the best teachers ive seen  Anyways just wanted to give a little uodate and let yall know im still breathing  https://photos.app.goo.gl/ sLSPmjCSafi2kN9N7 Miss yall ...
