Dear parents,
First off, glad that the
Sheehans got the letter. I am happy they liked it. I didn't get the picture of
him. I forgot to ask last email, when did you get back in contact with the
Hurlburts? And do you have Elder Roellers email by any chance? That's awesome
that you are helping with the boy and her mom. That is something we try to
stress here a lot. It helps out more than you think! Well you probably know how
much it helps haha, but I never realized I was a "member present" so
many times with the missionaries hahah.
We called brother Palazzo in the car
when President Becerra picked me up but he didn't answer, so we'll see if he
calls back. That's so crazy Micheal Palazzo is coming home so soon. I feel like
my mission will never end. I don't mean that in a bad way, haha it just seems
like something so farfetched and beyond me that it's not worth thinking about.
Turns out I will be going home July 21st (2015) with another Elder from Texas.
(that's what the elder told me, otherwise I wouldn't have known).
So right now,
we pretty much have a new set of investigators. Which is pretty cool. Just goes
to show how inspired this ward change stuff was. Last night we picked up two
new investigators, one is the mom of a recently new investigator and the other
is the aunt. They had really good questions and all the answers we gave made
sense to them. Which we loooove to see. On top of that, they wanted to go to
church and visit the temple! The day before we visited a former investigator
who was pretty much the opposite. Like I don't even know why she wanted us
over. She would not accept anything about Joseph Smith and had no desire to
accept it either. So we aren't planning to go back there anytime soon, as you
can imagine. It's been cool to see the ward build up and get all organized
recently. In the Elder's quorum, the theme that has been stressed is missionary
work and how they can help the missionaries and how we can help them. And
apparently there are still going to be some "surprises" coming up
this next transfer. My companion only has 6 days left in the mission!! That's
crazy, I think. He is excited to see his family, as any aged missionary would
be. I am excited and a tad nervous for what is to come this next transfer.
Joshua 1:9
Deut. 31: 1-8, 23
Psalms 118:24
My bike is doing well. Nothing
really out of the ordinary going wrong with it right now. We are still riding
the bus and train, and have been having a good time with that. But of course I
run into Jehova's Witnesses more than I'd like to haha. But it's all good. I
might write more if I remember something in a little bit, love you!:)
