Mom - Well it sounds like it was a
pretty good week, and that you have been keeping busy! I hope everything works
out between those two, and a new lawn mower?? That lawn mower was new just a
couple years ago! But that's pretty cool. And Halloween mom, it's coming! I am
going to miss fall... :( Oh well. But I hope you're doing great, Mom! Love you!
Dad - Thank you for the BYU score! I
hope they keep up the good work! they play the U pretty soon, right? This
weekend or the next weekend, right? Anyway, thanks for Elder Perry's notes- I
didn't read them yet, but I took a picture of them so I can later. :) And I
want pictures from the Halloween stuff!! Anyway, I hope you are doing great
too!
Marilee - I already wrote back!

Anyway, a pretty busy week, and we
were actually able to teach this week. It was pretty good! We didn't teach a
lot of investigators, but we did teach less actives, and we were finally able
to talk to Zondy, who had been avoiding us for a little while. He was sad and
everything, and we talked to him and asked why, and he hadn't been coming to
church, and he told us that he had started smoking again, and that he was
scared that his priesthood was going to be taken away. We taught about
repentance and forgiveness and it seemed to help, but he didn't come to church
again, so we passed by with the bishop, and they had a good talk, which was
sweet. We have a cita with him tomorrow, which should help.
Yesterday though we had a pretty
good day, because the members actually wanted to work with us. We went out with
the Bishop and the 2nd counselor in the Stake Presidency, and we went and
visited some people, including an investigator! So that was pretty sweet. That
was a really good evening, and I wish all Sundays were like that haha. But a
lot of time this week was dedicated to finding people, and we were able to find
a few.
Update on the dog bite, it's getting
better. I keep it covered and everything, and it's getting better! So no
worries there. :) If anything gets worse I'll be sure to let the mission nurse
know, and the next time I write, I'll let you know. But for now it's getting
better and stuff, so it's all good.
Oh, and something cool the mission
is doing, is that we have all asked our unit leaders (Bishops/Branch
Presidents) to find 5 Part Member Families to work with, and then we were to
ask them for a blessing so that we can work under their keys and authority. A
really sweet idea, and we had a good experience with Bishop Nieves yesterday
with everything, and it was really great. :)
Anyway, I really don't have a ton of
time to write, and not much to say as it is.. I'm sorry. Next week should be
better! Anyway, I love you all so much and I'm glad I could at least write you
this little letter! No time to send pictures either... sorry. :( Next week!
Next week! Anyway, I hope you're all doing great, and you're always in my
prayers. Thank you for everything!
With much love,
