Elder Connor Robertson Atlanta Georgia North Mission

  Hello There,  So many of you know this, but I had a birthday last week, and it was awesome. Thank you all for your heart felt words, they touched my soul and made me remember all the good times that I had before my mission. The gifts were also amazing, thank you. I think I have reach the point in my life where I care more about the cards and the words in them. Thank you all once again, and a special thanks to my loving Mother who always works hard to make sure that I have a special Birthday. She is always successful!   This week was awesome, I probably say that about every week but it is even more true this week. So much happened that I'll probably leave out some of the good stuff. Not intentional that is just the way the cookie crumbles.  So this week we were able to have our first FHE meeting ( Family Home Evening ). It was awesome because of many reasons. We were able to have a couple Branch families there to get to know each other, and have a good time. We...

  Hello Everyone!  How are you?  Yeah me too, this week of been busy.  Have you notice how time flies when you are having fun? Yeah me too, it's a blast some much fun and not a lot of time to tell it all. I'm one week older and wiser too, and I feel that this has been absolutely fantastic, and I don't know where to start. So I will not start from the beginning. It will be in the Middle.  On Wednesday we got to go to the Georgia Atlanta Temple , and loved it. Going to the Temple always brings peace and comfort into my life and love to see how all the Temple look different but feel the same. It truly is the best place on Earth. For all those that are close by please go to the Temple even if all you do is look at it from the outside.  There is beauty there that can not be described, only felt. That feeling is a feeling that last with you for all of eternity. After the Temple I got a chance to hang out with the Zone with a lot of new faces. We played some ...

  Good Morning,  And in case I don't see ya;  Good Afternoon, and  Good Night I hope everyone had a great week, and that you all are doing well. This week was a blast; so much happening and so much fun. I hope that I can do it justice and remember all that happened.  Starting off last week was transfers. I didn't move and neither did my companion, but our whole zone changed. Our district changed as well. Our Zone leaders who are in are district both moved. One went home and the other became the Assistant to the President of our mission(or AP). The other Elders in our district are training a new missionary, so they are now in a trio. Our new Zone leaders are awesome and one of them was the AP before this transfer. I haven't met all the new people in the Zone, but I'm pretty sure that just about everyone is training a new missionary.  We had an amazing experience on Tuesday because we were in the right place at the right time. We were going about our normal m...

  Thank you all for the love and support that you give to Connor. He really apricates it. I just wanted to let everyone know who doesn't already know that his Birthday is coming up on March 30th!!!! He would LOVE to get an email, letter from you. If you would like to send him something more, and would like some ideas, here are a few. Gift cards to Walmart , Subway , Chick-fil-A are great. He LOVES chocolate, (remember he has a tree nut allergy).  Here is his current address to send things to just for his birthday Elder Connor Robertson 2100 Roberts Ridge Rd APT D5 Ellijay, GA 30540 Thank you, April

  Hello there,  "Ah General Kenobi"  I hope that everyone thought of that quote as I said Hello there. If you did most impressive, if not then I find your lack of Star Wars knowledge disturbing.  Now with all the star wars out of the way, it's not) This week was great even though it was hard, and looking back I know that it was a good week even when it was tough. Thank you all for your support and for your prayers.  Let's see if I can remember this week. It feels like it all blends into one day. On Monday we got together with our Zone for our P-day, and played some kick ball. Now this is where the fun begins. It was a good time especially since the Zone leaders are leaving this transfer. One is becoming AP (Assistant to the Mission President),and the other is going home. I'm going to miss both of them.  We once again had an amazing lesson with the Hobbs Family, and we were able set a date for their Baptism. YAY! I love the energy the family has, especially ...

  Hello there!  This week has been quite the Rollercoaster. The good thing is with the ups it helps make the downs better. Without the bad how do I know the good? The love of Jesus Christ helps me to get out of the bad so I can enjoy the good and help others to do the same.  Up  We had an awesome p-day(preparation day for preparation and a bit of fun), last week were we went on a hike through a park. It was beautiful, and peaceful. While on the hike we found a couple of sticks and obviously we used them as lightsabers. Then we played to game that Joseph Smith played. Where to two sit on the ground putting their feet together and then hold the stick in the middle with their arms. Then they try pulling the other over to them. It was fun, and two elders ended breaking the stick. It was a long awesome hike where we crossed on a bridge that was made by an eagle scout. Fun memories, but makes me glad for all that helped me to become an Eagle Scout.   Up  Lo...

  Dear everyone,   I think I have said this every email, but I'm going to say it again. It is crazy of how much time goes by so quickly. I'm pretty sure that Georgia lives in another world were time goes at a faster rate.  This week was awesome for many reasons. One of the reasons is because we did a lot of service this week. The week before I said that I hadn't done any service, so now God has given me no room to say that again. On Wednesday we helped our dear friend Rebecca move, and that took most of the day. It has been a while since I helped someone move. The last people I help move was my parents. Brought back some good memories. After that, we headed to the church to help a sister clean it. We did that for a couple more hours, and then we headed over to dinner with a member and his wife. And what was awesome was that this member had come with us that morning to teach our friend. Then he came with us to help Rebecca move, and then we finished the day with havin...
