VERY short Letter

Well, it is hard to hear things are just not going very well at home and that people are not making good choices. It took me forever to realize that rules are there to make us happy…not to just suck the fun out of everything?..........................

I don't really know what else to put now that you totally killed the vibe...

It was great to see some pics of the cousins! And what are the chances of Brock and Katy moving into that ward? 

Pretty short letter this week, I guess.

Elder Rook is now a zone leader somewhere else in the mission. He is the best. Elder Christensen is pretty cool. He has been out for about a year also and likes to get to know the ward and work. It will be a good transfer. It is weird that I am getting trained, but I am leading the area.... 

Not a whole lot has happened in the last week except transfers. 

I have been doing my best to get to know the ward better and get family mission plans enforced, then check up… check up… and more check up on those. This area is pretty wealthy, so the only way we teach is through member missionary work.

I am starting to enjoy reading different gospel related books and articles.

No pics… I forgot my camera....

Letter to Mom:

Well dang, yeah, I saw the new iPhone 6 came out, and I knew you would get it. I am glad to hear you enjoyed the Women’s Conference.  That is good. What size did you get?

I am really sorry to hear that Nancy and Meg are making such crappy choices. Things like that are hard to hear… especially when the passed week has been rather slow.  (I guess I (mom) should not say too much about negative stuff at home....I'll know for next time.) I do like getting pics of cousins though. Haha! That was a good thing. Ha! Ties (paisley) and jerky are never a bad thing to get in the mail. Ha! This week an investigator guy made it to sacrament meeting and that was miracle! And the talk that was given was by a guy who just got home from his mission from Brazil and gave a super good talk about conversion.  It was perfect for this guy. Other than that… not a whole lot happened. 

When others make bad choices, and things get tough, just think of how you can improve because that is the only thing you can do. It really stinks, but that is the Lord’s way. He will never take away agency.

Love you,

Hope you have a better week!!!
