Email Letter - 27 August 2008

Family,

So this week has been an okay one. It has started to get a little warmer because spring is right around the corner so it’s now anywhere from 95-110 degrees in our area with lots of wind that blows the dust up and it’s just horrible. We walk around eating dirt all day and it’s not my favorite thing but what can you do.

So it sounds like Josh’s farewell went awesome and I’m so excited for him. It seems like so much is going on and I’m missing out on all of it. I guess things can’t stay the same for two years.

Things are going well and we found a couple more people that we can go back and teach but none of them are really promising investigators but its people that are at least willing to listen so I’m excited about that.

Things are going well with my comp but he of course we still have our moments where I wanna strangle him.

The members are starting to give us more references and that is always so much better than just clapping houses because its people that have some idea of what we teach. It’s nice to finally have some help and it’s another thing that I’m excited about.

We have transfers in two weeks and I really think that I’ll be leaving this time because 6 months in one area is a long time and I’m really ready to go. Tomorrow we have divisions with our district leader and I’m excited because I’m staying in my area this time to do them and we are going to teach that awesome family. I’m planning on showing them the DVD of the restoration so that they can feel even more just how real and special it is. I hope that it goes well. It’s still been pretty hard to find really good promising families other than this one in our area but we are trying some different ways of finding good whole families that are ready to listen and to accept what we have to offer (eternal life) what a great gift.

It sounds like you are all staying pretty busy this with football and dance and work and booster stuff and just everything and it just sounds like a regular football season and I’m sad to be missing it. I know that I say that every week but I really do.

There is an elder from my zone that is going home in two weeks and it’s funny to hear him talk about what he’s going to do which includes getting married in November. He’s crazy but we love him. I hit 7 months on Quin's birthday last week and it’s still crazy to sit and think about how fast it has gone. I’m happy to be here and I feel like I’m learning so much. I love you all very much. Take care.
