Dearest Mommy Monk!
OK... So this week! FANTASTIC! And thanks for the package!!! It was so nice. Monday was pretty relaxed. We didn't do a whole ton.. Just went swimming... tanned... and went on a couple dates... no big deal. JUST KIDDING! No we did do some shopping and wrote some letters and cleaned, so it was nice. Tuesday we went on exchanges with the Sapnish elders in our zone! I was with elder Jones - he's been out about 8 weeks, so his Spanish was kinda shakey and we were in his area. It went really well though!! I read a scripture to a lady in spanish, and i pretty much felt lost and confused all day! But it was fun, and i really felt the spirit the whole day. I love being able to exchange with missionaries! Its such a learning experience for me. Tuesday we had our disrict meting and it was great! I have been asking the elders in my district to teach lessons, and each time, they have been STUNNING. FANTASTIC. REVALATORY. Last week we talked about love, and we read the words to "A poor wayfaring man of greief." Chack it out its great! Thursday we went on an exchange with the 5th and 2nd ward elders. Elder Scheiss went with 5th, and I went with 2nd. It was great! They have been having some obedience issues, so we loved them. FANTASTIC! It was a nasty ghetto, but we taughty alot. Friday we helped a family do some wervice. The lanes - we tracted into them and they are down on their luck a bit, so we have been helping them. it was fun! He always gives us eggs and peppers and tomatoes. It was great! We had dinner with a less active family and it went great! Miracles have been happening... Speaking of miracles...
MANNA FELL FROM HEAVEN!
On saturday the boys got back from scout camp and we were tracting by one of the leaders house. They called us over and gave us a HUGE rubbermaid tub full of food! Pancake miz, mustard, fruit, etc. FANTASTIC! Then yesterday we were having dinner with the Issertells who are friends with Chase and having a lesson with him, and they gave us toothbrushes and toothpaste and laundry detergent. Awesome! Then we had a great lesson with chase and yeah. Great week! We are going to ZLC in ventura tonigh (Like 2 hours away) and we'll be hter all of tomorrow. Its gonna be fun! We are studying the talk "Desire" by elder Oaks from last conference. Revelation. COOL! Well, I gotta go. I love you dearly. The church is TRUE! Talk to you soon,
