Harmonie: Elder Wheeler didn't say a whole this week. He was actually quite sick so he was a day late emailing and mostly only sent a few responses to my email. And no pics:(
This is what he said:
Elder Wheeler: 
I am fully recovered...It was food poisoning, from a wedding reception we went to...17 other members of the ward and a number of other people from the visiting wards have the same symptoms...including the bride and groom...no fun. but after I finally vomited last night around midnight 9 times! I felt so much better...It was gnarly...and I am eating solid food again.

the ward was very good at checking in on us, both sister S and T kept us from going too stir crazy and the Winns brought us all the sick supplies we needed.

Harmonie: 
In response to my question, How is everyone after the call home on Christmas?


Elder Wheeler: 
Elder Cluff and I were a little trunked out for a few hours, nothing serious, just thinking of home, but were back on our game by bedtime on Christmas.


No pics from Arthur, but I did get some from one of his KY moms:)

So much happened this past couple of weeks and it feels like time just keeps moving faster and time to type gets shorter, I will do my best to sum up a few of the highlights of the weeks. Exchange with Cave Spring Elders/Elder MacDonald's Surgery - An elder in our district Elder MacDonald had been suffering from some headaches and major dizziness for a week or so after some usual remedies didn't work he was recommended to go see a doctor, who after learning his heart rate was dangerously low, he was shortly admitted to Lewis Gale Hospital. The gave us a call shortly after and we met them at the hospital. As this all unfolded it was concluded that Elder MacDonald needed a pacemaker...All went well and after 3 days He was able to return to missionary service and did not have to go home:) As I watched all this unfold I was amazed at how many people involved were touched in little ways. One of the largest was the opportunity to Elder Wilkinson to feel the fulfillment of support

  Whaooo...I am staying in Parkersburg! :) Well what a week Everyone, It is Transfer Week and Guess what, I am getting another companion, and this one I am determined to keep at least two Transfers! At least this time my companion is and I are leaving successful and Happy...I am really going to miss Elder Williams, he has taught me so much and between Elder McFarland and Elder Williams I have not only become a better missionary, but I also feel stronger and happier in General and There are so many things that I know I have learned from both of my Trainers that I will carry through my mission and into my life afterwards too. Love you Both Elders!    Elder Williams and I had a great final week of our companionship, as Summer here is drawing to a close, since most of the schools here resume in the coming week or two (due to all the snow-days from the harsh winter). Funny it seems like summer just started and here it is coming to a close so soon. Elder Williams and I

I don't have a ton of time today, the weather here has been excellent and we are going to be enjoying one of the Greenbriar Valley's treats...spelunking with the district. Interesting to note the city of Lewisburg was actually built on top of a rather large cave system in-fact most of the city's storm water runs through caves...it should be a real treat. I am understanding more about how heavenly father answers our prayers and Nephi means when he says "for we know it is by Grace that we are saved after all we can do." (2 Nephi 25:23) The G. Family has been wonderful, I love this family it has been an absolute privilege to teach and visit with them. H. G. (wife and mother of the family) she is super mom, It has been so admirable to see her in the way that she simply strives to do nothing but serve her family and be a good mom....speaking of which ​I love you mom:) Happy Mothers Day H. has been reading the Book of Mormon everyday and has been r
