Hey mom!
This is gonna be a short one, i have only a TEENSY bit of time. Sorry!
Thanks for the letters from my friends! I really loved them! Im so
glad they are doing so well! I also cannot believe that Shelby is
getting Married! HAHA! But thats cool. doi you know who with? I'll
prolly get an announcememnt.
This week was fantastic! We spent monday night travelling to V Town
and all of tuesday there. President Castro is SO COOL! Everything we
talked about he could back with the scriptures. It was a way spiritual
experience. We all talked about what we need to do in the mission and
how our missionaries can improve. Its cool becaus eeveryone wants to
be there and we all have the same goal in mind:to help the
missionaries around us! It was GREAT! Driving home we hit a peice of
sheet metal and crashed and we just got out of the hospital today, but
we're ok. No juist kiddin! We were safe! :)
We had some exchanges this week too. We drove to Delano and spent the
day with the spanish elders. It was alot of fun! I I went with Elder
Richards and Elder Lyons and we did alot of really good things! It was
an effective exchange, and I think that they really had a good time.
Even though we didn't get to see many of the poeple we had planned, we
still were dilligent and accomplished alot. On Saturday Elder Williams
came to Rosedale with me and we had a GREAT exchange! We were blessed
to be able to teach a couple lessons, and also to teach one of our
investigators, Ashley! It was really good, and I was very impressed
with elder williams and how well he handled the day. We were busy and
did alot of good! We also talked to an older gentleman who told us how
much he disliked missionaries of any faith, but by the end of the
conversation, he had really warmed up to us! I know that it was the
Holy Spirit helping to soften his heart.
The other days we got to do lots of good too! Did I tell you about
ashley? She's 11 and her dad and step-mom want her to get baptized
before she moves back to New Jersey for the school year. She went to
girls camp, she comes to church, and she bore her testimony. It is
great! She's basically gold! :) We have taught her 2 times and we're
teaching her on wednesday. Miracles!!
Elder schiess is still my favorite companion ever! I love him to
death. Mom, if it's not too much, could I have a tiny bit oif money?
We do so much traveling and have to stop to eat... I honestly don't
spend much money, it's just the travelling thing... Im sorry! I hate
to be a burden like that, but yeah. That's my schpeel! I love you.
I do love mail, so please keep it coming. I hope you know how much i
love you! I pray for you dailey! Keep in touch! And thank you so much
for all you do for me! I am so blessed to have a faithful family
behind me all the way. I love you!!!
