So, I told dad the exciting story this week! My comp is from Canada. We are still working on contacting people... and personal study. We get along okay. He doesn't talk too much, so I have to break the silence. I just start telling mission stories and stuff. We are teaching like 30 people right now. It's awesome! We are doing really good. Bhims dad, the people from Nepal, is really sick. So, we went and gave him a blessing and within an hour he felt better....That's power right there!! But anyways, I hope things go awesome this week. Sounds like things are super busy!!! That new business name sounds saweet!!! I like it! j-nuts yo bomb home boy... love all of you! Brit, I hope things workout between you and whoever you choose. I know they will!

Love ya'll!

Hey papa, This week was pretty cool. I got my new comp to train. I have had 2 comps now that I have trained and let me tell ya... I hate it! It's like taking care of a kid. This week we started helping this guy that got in to a wreck like 20 years ago and the doctors said he won't ever be able to walk again. He has been depressed ever since then... until we came around. I actually found a place that donates walkers for people that can't afford stuff. I ordered one and had a ward member go and pick it up. The past week we have been teaching this guy how to walk for 30 min. and then we teach him the gospel for the other 30 min. that we spend with him... When I first met him he was a drunk and just travels around on his wheelchair yelling at people. I knew he was a little softy and just mad at the world. Once we started going over there a few times and helping him, he asked us how much it was going to cost for us to be able to keep coming over. We said nothing, just let us share the happiness we have felt in our life. It's a win, win situation for him. When we told him that he broke down and told us his prayers where finally answered. He has been stuck in that wheelchair for 20 years and couldn't afford to buy a walker or have someone help him. He's planning on coming to church and letting us teach him.... that's the story for the week Love you, Dad

Hey mama! I don't have much time. My comp is leaving... I'm training another one... Gosh dang! I don't like having all this stress! haha it's cool though. I taught my last comp well. He's gonna go out and kick some butt! We have 2 people we have set with a baptismal date and working with like 30 other people. It's awesome! We played football today and I think I might play college ball when I get back. Well, my comp needs to go pack. I'm sorry this letter is so short.

Hola!!! Well, this week has been crazy! We are doing sooo good! The zone leaders are tools because they don't believe the type of numbers I have been giving them. Usually the area I'm in gets around 20 to 25 lessons a week... my first full week I got 33. So, they just didn't like it. I guess i don't know what their deal was but I called my last zone leaders and asked for them to call and set them straight. I loved my old zone leaders. We talked to them like 5 times a day. When they found out I was being emergency transferred, they took us out to lunch and spent the whole p-day with me whileIi was packing...haha. Anyways, my old zone leaders called my new ones and they explained what the deal is so they called and said sorry for being dumb, I guess...I don't really know what the deal is. I have 2 pretty cool stories this week... First one, we were walking down the street and I told my comp, Elder Larsen, to go and talk to the lady getting ready to walk past. So we did and the first thing she said was F you and F God... usuallyI'm like daannnng, welp c-ya later! But, I don't know... I felt like I needed to talk to her. I walked next to her and just started bearing my testimony and asked her why she said that. She said her husband died 2 weeks after they got married, her daughter died, 2 of her houses have burned down and she has nothing left and shes dying of leukemia... so she said you tell meeee where god is in my whole life... She was kinda mad at this time and soI told her very bluntly. Well, there's your problem... God's not in your life. We walked with her for about a mile and left her with a card never expecting to hear from her again. This sunday, we were going to talk to people in some apartments and we heard a voice from acrossed the parking lot and it was her. She came up and said I'm doing alot better and I have been thinking about what you said. She asked us to come and teach her and a friend tonight at 7:00... We will see how it goes!! Next story... we got a random phone call from a guy and he said he talked to us about 4 months ago and said he wasn't ready to hear the gospel. He said I think I am ready now. I was like heck yes! Where are you we will run to your house! haha He came and got us and he's reading the Book of Mormon and will probably be baptized in two to three weeks. haha crazy! Things are going so good here! I love you all. I hope things are going great! I just emailed Jon.. that little tool haha
