Connersville Indiana

Surprise there was more transfer pictures from last week put up today, so a new picture of Elder Cox!!


I think keep you in supence is funner then buying something for you to see where I am. ha ha  I'm in Connersville Indiana, it's the poorest county in Indiana.  I now know the real meaning of redneck ha. Well my new comps name is Elder Laudie, he is a great guy from American fork. I am in a ward that should be a branch, it has 40 people at church on a good day. I have met so many amazing people it has been great! There's a family that lives in a place called Brownsville, it is like orderville for us. The family there is awesome, the dad just got baptized about four months ago.  He is a farmer and they have cows, goats, chickens, horses and lots of land. So we got out there and I got to be right at home, milking the cow and feed the chickens. I  fixed his riding lawn mower, and then they fed us pork chops and potato's. ahhhh man was that good!!!!  I am doing great, and just starting to learn the area. We only have a car every other week here, so I walk or ride about 15 miles a day. I'll be skinny in no time ha ha
I love you all Elder Cox

A little about Connersville Indiana

Connersville is named for settler John Conner, older brother of William Conner, an early Indiana settler and politician
 

Connersville is a city in Fayette County, east central Indiana, United States, 66 miles east by southeast of Indianapolis. The population was 13,481 at the 2010 census. The city is the county seat of and the largest and only incorporated town in Fayette County.[6] It is home to the county's one and only high school.








The economic base is mostly manufacturing, followed by retail and health care. Little remains of the old industrial base. There are fewer than 600 union employees in the town. The closure of the Visteon plant in 2007, resulting in loss of over 900 jobs was a chief contributing factor in the town reaching the brink of bankruptcy in Mar. 2014. The largest employers are Stant, Walmart, and GE Energy (formerly Roots/Dresser), followed by various retail establishments and schools.

Kunkels Drive In

"this tenderloin sandwich look like quite a lot! It’s not so big as to be overwhelming, but big enough to be satisfying. It’s pounded out thin, but not TOO thin. "
 
they lady goes on to say that it was some of the best food she's had out there.
 
we think he's going to love his new area, and are so thankful the lord is watching out for him, thank you all for your prayers and any letters you've sent his way.
well until next week .... :) sending you our love!!
