Elder Baucom in Virginia

  Whats good email its been a minute and thats cause I have been too busy balling. My b. Anyways, missionary work is still super awesome. I got transferred from Harrisonburg back to Virginia Beach #Pretty but ghetto. I was pretty sad to leave Elder Mulholland, my amazing son, in Harrisonburg, which is genuinely the best area in the mission. But the work still goes on. I am in First Landing which is a mad chill area with a lot of hood dudes who I got a lot of practice on in my training so it's pretty fun to be back. It's actually sick because a lot of the finding we would do in my training we go to the same exact spots as Providence(shout out town center and Ms Utah).  As far as comps go its pretty goated as well. Elder Mills and I are coparenting our young buck Elder Spencer who is doing great. He is from Camas, Utah and he low-key hasn't complained at all since he pulled up even though we have been grinding. He's a dog. Elder Mills is comparable to a LeBron. He's o...

  What is up everyone! Been a good lil bit here in Harrisonburg. Love this area and my guy Elder Mulholland so much it's been awesome.  Since last time I wrote one of these john's the highlight was definitely Yusuf's baptism. It was so awesome to see someone who didn't really even understand Christianity to be bearing powerfull testimony at his baptism. Such a goat. Satan was trying to to prevent his baptism though. We pulled up to the actual font and that thing was so dirty. We had to scrub that thing down and when we were actually filling the font it took about 3 hours for it to fill and when we pulled up to dunk him it was nearly drained. We still baptized him even though there was about a foot of water. Nearly concussed him on the floor but luckily Yusuf is not in the weight room too much so we were able to pull him out before he hit his head. But for sure highlight of the email.  We out here gathering Israel and the only out here in Harrisonburg Israel just looks l...

  What's up everyone! It has been a fortnight since I have written and once again that's on me. But it's been a good lil bit here in Harrisonburg! Hit 6 months as a missionary not too long ago and it was also my mom and Elizabeth Florence's birthday so it's been a very eventful last couple of days. We had some great lessons over the last couple weeks! We had a great couple of ones with our boy Yusuf who's gonna be baptized on the 8th. He plays basketball for his school and when we invited him to play with us at some point he said he needs some good comp if he is gonna actually come. I took that personally Yusuf. Bouta dunk him like Shawn Kemp in a couple weeks though so that's gonna be lit.  We still are teaching our friend Cindy who is literally so awesome. She can't help but ball her eyes out whenever she comes to church and we read 3rd Nephi 11 with her yesterday and that was probably the most spiritual lesson of my mission. Cindy is probably one of t...
