Just Another Week

MOM!!!!!!

Hey! So it sounds like y'all are doing well. I'm glad to hear that dad is doing so well. I'm sorry to hear about those nasty pains behind his knee. Who knew to fix the back pain you have to blow out your knee hahahahaha. I am glad to hear that so many people are trying to serve dad. That really is one of the last things I thought I would ever hear in my life. Not because people don't love dad it's just he's never in a situation to be served. He's always the one giving the service. I kinda wish I had Brother Woodruff here to bring me all that yummy food every day......... anyways I'm hungry now.......I really want a donut now.

So I didn't know that there was an earthquake in Peru. It didn't affect me at all, but it's interesting that you say that because it reminds me of a story that I don't think I told y'all. So when I was in Espinar like 2 months ago me and Elder Bryant were just in bed talking. We were about to go to sleep when all of a sudden Elder Bryant starts kicking my bed(or so I thought) so I asked him why are you kicking my bed? He was like why are you kicking my bed and then we realized we had just lived though and earthquake. It wasn't strong but it seems that Peru is starting to get a little more active. Very interesting. They say the Andes mountains are full of Gold because they are all dead volcanoes. Maybe they aren't as dead as we think. Well lucky for me I'm super far from the mountains now. 

Well I'm happy that Austin is well now. It makes me wonder about all those vitamins that you gave me as I was growing up........

Well this week I got to give a baptismal interview. Just have to say AWESOME!!!!!!!! Best part of being district leader is giving those interviews. So that's about it. Oh someone else you can pray for is our investigator Layo. He has a date for the 6 of September. Pray that it can go through. I love y'all so much. please stay faithful til the end.

Another week

Mom

Well I'm so glad Dad is doing good. I'm glad there is progress. He looks like he's doing great. I did find the picture of him with a walker pretty funny. Like he was getting old or something hahahahaha. I'm sorry it was a rough week, but it's the best when those weeks are over to look back and be like yeah I did that. I'm also glad the girls really did step there game up to help y'all out. They really are going to be good women. Lucky for the guy who marries one of them. Mom I think that's awesome that you get to be in the RS presidency. You are going to be able to do a lot of good for alot of people. It's sad you dont get to be a ward missionary but hey your needed in another part of the vineyard and always remember that really you are always a missionary. You always have a duty to find people and invite them to Christ.

This week was hot. It is really hot here but I'm loving the heat. It makes me feel more comfortable than the cold. Not physically but emotionally and mentally. I can get more relaxed and focus more on the work. Well I'm meeting tons and tons of people. They all want to hear the gospel. For the first time in my mission I'm not saying well plan A B C and D fell through so what now. hahahahaha That's just a joke, but I feel like people are just more open here. I think it's the culture.  It's just a more open place where you leave the door open becasue it's so hot. I would just ask you to pray for one person right now. His name is Leonius. He's like 26 years old. He is progressing really good. He even said he liked the law of chasity (first time I've ever heard that). He just hasn't come to church. Pray for that. That's all I ask for right now. I love y'all so much please take care of dad for me
