Barker Family Missionary

 Week 77 March 4 -March 10, 2024  (Transferred to new area -Salem on 2/29/24) Hey guys! It been a while haha 😅. Anyway to start I thought I would let you guys know that I was transferred! I sadly left the coast, and got transferred to Salem! I was kind of nervous at first because my whole mission I have been in the boonies, and now I was going to the biggest city in the mission.  In my 1 week here Salem has already been crazy. To start we almost got hit with fireworks, that was crazy. They lit them off like 20 ft from us, and we thought it was a gunshot at first.

I mean Joseph Smith says in the introduction to the book " I told the brethren that the Book of Mormon was the most correct of any book on earth, and the keystone of our religion, and a man would get nearer to God by abiding by its precepts, than by any other book."
