Hey Everyone,

So I am sorry I don't have much time this week to email. I climbed the tallest mountain in Whales, Mount Snowden today so I sacfriced some time so I could do that. It was a beautiful climb we went as a district so there was 8 of us missionaires there. It was a blast I got to climb with my good buddy Elder Elison. There were some gorgeous lakes and snecory all around. Also there is a train that runs up to the top of the hill, an apitamee of laziness if you as me :)

This week we had a special all elders training for all the elders in the mission. It was great to catch up with previous companions and get pictures with some that are about to go home. It is probably the last time I will see Elder Maljanen my Finnish companion. So it was pretty good. We also played sports so I was able to catch up on my American football and enjoy the time there.

Last Monday night a member through me a birthday party! They are a young couple with a few kids so they baked a cake and gave me a card and sang to me. It was very kind of them and it made me feel a bit at home :) then later that night the mission president and his wife called and sang me happy birthday as well! It was soo  good I love my mission president.

Hope you all are having a great September I love you,

Love Elder Hammond
