2nd area, Corinth, MS

March 19, 2009 Travis was transfered to Corinth,MS. It is about 25 miles north of Booneville, and right on the border of Tennessee. His companion is Elder Rau from Cedar City, UT. Elder Rau was been a real help to Travis in adjusting to missionary life.
Travis says that Corinth s a very hard area. Many strong members have moved from the area because of the economy. They are having a hard time getting the ward to help them. They don't feed them, go on splits with them, or fellowship anyone that they bring to church. They are quite discouraged. They volunteer in a food pantry and go fishing on p-days. He has caught some really nice fish.
He has been to the Shiloh National Cemetary. There are many Civil War sites in his area.
