Green Bay!

So for those of you who haven't heard, my first area is Green Bay! I am serving in the first ward here, and my companions are Elder Van Orden and Elder Manesse. They are both super cool and also from Utah! Elder Van Orden is from a town of like 250 people called Loa I think, its crazy. And Elder Manesse is from Spanish Fork area! Elder Van Orden played a lot of sports in high school, mostly baseball and basketball. His 1A high school team took state in baseball his senior year! I realized we didn't take a picture with any of us in it, and I don't really even have pictures of me this week, just the area.

So the area is super pretty! It is so green compared to Utah. There is animal life everywhere. You see squirrels running around in the middle of the streets. Green Bay is not a big city really, it has no skyscrapers or anything like that, but there is a lot of people here. The people are usually pretty nice to us! But they are almost always catholic, so they don't care to hear our message most of the time! We knocked doors for about 4 or 5 hours one of the days and found maybe 1 new investigator, so it is a little tough at times, but it goes on.  Green Bay Packers... that is all that is everywhere. Its insane. Their garbage cans are even green and yellow... But people love their team and it is pretty cool. We have to find out things to do during games, because if you start knocking on people's doors they don't really appreciate it. But Lambeau field is like the biggest thing in the city, everything else is pretty much just houses.

The ward here is awesome! They feed us 2 or 3 times a week so it isn't terrible. But we met the Cutler family Sunday night and they have like 8 kids who all play soccer!! It was fun to get to know them and a lot of other families in the ward as well. The members are pretty good at doing missionary work with us, so we get a few referrals from them! This week has been a blast! Hope everyone at home is doing great!

Love, Elder Reynolds
