Week 96 - The Changing of the Guard

Hello! Sorry it's been forever!

It's been a hectic few weeks, but tons of fun. Here's the scoop:

I spent my last few weeks of June as a solo missionary. Hopped around with different companionships, living out of a suitcase, etc. Tried to keep my area in good shape too, mostly through texts and calls and whatnot. 

On June 28th, President and Sister Nygaard flew in from Saint George, Utah. As soon as they crossed the mission boundaries, the Sorensens and Bartletts (previous Boise mission president) were released. I met my new companion, Elder Kartchner from Pima, AZ, a few days prior. For the next week after President Nygaard flew in, we covered one area in Boise and one in Nampa. President eventually had us get rid of the one in Boise since it was less centrally located.

The Nygaards are amazing! Super loving and super musical! We've had a lot of fun. With all the random errands, office work, and meetings, we haven't done much proselyting, but we're starting to get some time back. We're excited to go teach some people!

Sorry this email is almost purely informational and not very spiritual! There have been plenty of spiritual moments in the past week, especially as I've made time to have sincere prayer and study the scriptures. I'm grateful for those personal moments when my days are filled with mostly administrative duties.

Love you all and hope you have a great week!

Sincerely, 
Elder Doyle

Finally have a new companion Elder Kartchner!
Honoring a great President and his wife before they head home!

Final raquet ball battle with President Sorenson...still couldn't beat him!
