I'm doing great Dad! Excited to hear about everything with
Ethan and Noah's game! That's so sick that you guys went! Who won? Sounds
like an awesome time Dad!
1. How were your
exchanges? The exchanges are a lot of fun! I went with Elder Sorenson and
Elder Hill this week and both are great Elders. It was a lot of fun this week.
2. When you feel like
there is a problem with a missionary, do you take care of it or talk to the
ZL's? I try to pray about it throughout the day and the week and help them
set goals to get better, but I often ask for guidance from my Zone Leaders.
3. Tell me about your
District? The District is awesome! We have 8 missionaries including me,
Elder Mafi, Elder Egbert and Elder Sorenson, Elder Hill and Elder Wilcox, and
Sister Christopherson and Sister Barton. The District really knows how to work
hard in their areas even though right now they are kind of struggling with
finding people to teach. They continue to work hard and I am just trying to
help them when they stumble a little bit.
4. Are you guys
checking on less active members too? We try to check on and work with LA.
It's hard to get out to some of them, but the Bishop here has enlisted the help
of the quorums every Tuesday and Thursday to be able to go to the LA.
5. Is Elder Mafi
getting excited to go home? He has mixed feelings he wants to see his
family, but he loves being on a mission doing missionary work.
6. How do you get
members to do stuff for you like sew your pants? They usually are offering
to do things like that so I accepted the offer. Haha
7. Is your bike fixed
now? I am going to pick up the tire tomorrow! Finally!
8. Sounds like your
pretty tough on your bike? tire? Chain? Mostly the tires are beat up. I try
to keep all of the stuff together and keep it clean.
9. Sleep? still going
good? I am sleeping really well.
This week has been pretty awesome! We had to go on splits
with members 2 times this week. We had 9 member present lessons, 4 people come
to church and 4 New investigators! So we have had an awesome week! We taught a
couple new families and they are all progressing! This week has been just a ton
of fun! We keep teaching a lot of people and they are feeling the Spirit as we
teach and as they read! It has been a real blessing to be out here and finding
some amazing people wanting to change and be better!
Not much this week. I have
been kinda sick like with a cough and a little congested, but I have an awesome
deep voice that sounds like Darth Vader. One amazing thing about being sick on
a mission is when you start teaching a lesson and suddenly every single symptom
that you had disappears and you can teach just fine and as soon as you leave
the home... POW! (in Mom's voice) They hit you like a hammer. It's been a
fantastic time this week!
I love you Dad and thanks for the message!
