haha oh man i love the mission!!!

haha bryce you are lucky that i dont have to think about girls right now or else i would be pretty bummed for you stealing the girl I CALLED DIBS ON haha. JK i dont know if that sentence makes sense my english is getting so bad haha but that is super cool bryce congratulations Rachelle congratulations to you too.

oh so that is way funny that you all think the spanish from Chihuahua is way pretty haha cuz i was actually gonna write about the spanish today and haha welll yeah its way cool i love it but i found out that Chihuahua is a lot like Alabama i think haha people from other parts of the country hate how we talk haha for example the people here always say Sí me entiendes oiga? or Sí sabes como oiga? haha oiga is like the command form of to hear so everytime they say that i think of some old hick from alabama saying something like ya'll be good now ya hear? haha and like the other mexican companions ive had make fun of it alot haha especially the sh instead of the ch haha but for real i love the spanish... its the only spanish i{ve ever known and in Preach my Gospel chapter 7 it talks about how you gotta talk about how i should speak like the people here speak haha even if i have a spanish hick accent haha.

but yeah the clases de íngles were awesome we are doing two classes every week and we have signs on the fence of the church and the first class we had like 20 people there and it was way cool and the second class 2 teenages came and loved it and yeah it was really well. we are gonna have more classes today. other things that we are doing to work smarter...

this week we had a Family Home Evening with the whole branch and we taught. we read 1 nefi 8 and then we acted it out... oh my gosh we had it so planned out it was awesome ( and the best is that we had investigators there that loved it) but yeah we went out side and blindfolded everyone and then we had a rope that went from the church to a tree and along the way we tempted them with candies and quien sabe que más haha oh my gosh it was way fun and the members absolutely loved it!!! the investigators tambien!!!!!

so we have a couple investigators that are super cool right now and are progressign a ton but they had to go out of town on sunday and so they couldnt come to the church. ..

oh yeah!! im writing today becuase we all had to go to chihuahua yesterday and President Angulo talked to us for the whole entire day!! it was way cool...

haha that is pretty crazy you´re story about the fireballs at the house!! oh yeah i totally realized i lied to you last week. the people gain about 150 pesos everyday which is about 13 bucks everyday not every week.

so for real though my english is really suffering i hope you will all be able to understand me when i get back haha. but if not i{ll just go to a spanish ward in provo or something. but yeah what that girl said about mexico is totally true. mexico is so layed back it is great i love it. haha for real i would like to live here after the mission with like krabbs and greg lemer and link haha just work a ton in the united states and then come here and live super duper cheap haha.

oh yeah in the english classes i pass around a note book and they write down things that they want to learn how to say and then i translate it on the board haha and on saturday there was like 2 or 3 that wrote como se dice: Mexico is gonna dominate USA tomorrow in the Gold Cup!!! haha and mexico did win haha

but yeah i gotta go love yall haha bye

hola papa!

you have so many talents! DVD...crazy! also that is great to hear
about the half marathon and total! i hope you can rest a little bit.
hope you can handle all teh soccer without me! haha !

sorry i didn´t answer the other questions the other week...but i can´t
remember what they are. por ahora....

Question #1- Compared to our home in AF, how nice would you rate your
apartment in Argentina? 1 being not nice and 10 being amazingly nice.

our pension is really really nice compared to the houses people live
in. compared to our house..our pension is probably a 8...it is super
super super super nice!!!!!

Question #2- Do you think your mission has been difficult thus far?
yes, the mission has been difficult. in different ways to express.
not speaking the language is part of it, understanding people, it is
so hard to see all the families separated, to see that they are
missing something but you can´t force them to fix the holes in their
lives. Agency is a blessing, but it is hard to watch the choices that
people choose sometimes. trying to find a balance in all things and
knowing what is most important and what is not is the most difficult
thing. but there is opposition in all things.... :) i like the talk
by Elder Holland that says that we can´t expect to become like Jesus
Christ...without feeling a particle of what he felt. i am still
learning how to love the hardships happily. there are so many
blessings!!

anyhow, sorry, i g2g...and didn´t have much time to write everything
or you better!
love you! i love the opportunity to be our here. i think i am still
adjusting...but i really love it and am learning so much!

love always,

So.... mom and dad i am sorry.... i went to the dentist! And i had to get a root canal, it will cost 426 Euros which is a ton i am so sorry! I havent paid yet i have to go back 2 more times, but they said all together for the 3 visits it would cost 426 Euros. And the money is bad but the pain was really bad. When i went the dentist was like "lets see whats wrong" and he seriously like stabbed my tooth, it hurt so bad i thought i broke my tooth in half! Then he got some pain killing stuff. it hurt so so so bad! oh man lets just say that was one of the worst experiences i have had in a long time! And i still have two more visits! But mom and dad sorry you have to pay for me! i will do some house work when i get home!

This week went by really fast. I cant really remember what happened. Just teaching and finding.

I used to write in my journal every day, but i am about a month behind cause we never have any free time to write! we always have alot to do!

So i have some really really really really good news though! so i figured out exactly what i want to do and how i am going to do it! i am going to became the president of Weber University! Bomb huh? that is my goal and i am going to do it! So i am really excited! I am planning on attending Weber this january (so i will get back like jan 2 and go to school on the 5th or something like that), then after 4 years of that i will become a teacher, then vis principal, then a Principal and do super super well at that, then become a professor, or a chairman of the education department or administration department for Weber"s a university, then become the president of Weber!
Ok so i have more good news everyone in 2 weeks is going to a meeting in croatia except for me. And guess who is going to be my companion, Davor majc (he is the president of the branch and he doesnt really trust missionaries and at first he didnt like them AT ALL)! hahahaha i am really excited actually, i can tell you one thing though, we arent eating lunch or dinner or ever sitting down! hahahahaha i figured i will just tell him we dont do any of that as missionaries then he would figure out we arent lazy! hahahaha
But the missionaries right now are loving it, they are changing, the mission is changing, and i am having a good time!

love you guys!
ps... sean wrote me and he was saying that when i come back he wants to move out with me!!! super excited.

but still focusing on the mission dont worry!

ok so CONGRATS BRYCE! that is super super cool!

So we had a little farewell party for president hill this week! i have never had so much fun in my life! OH man i loved it we played random games and i am so so so so so so sore! hahah we played a soccer game where you get on you hands and crawl like a cramb and i just had a blast!!! its was so funny, but i really really think missionaries lack having fun, cause i really didnt want to leave!

Ok so mom you asked about my visa, well lets just say i cant get it! haha i know there isnt much we can do about it. But i will be ok here in Ljubljana because everyone is tourists so they wont ever check visas. So i wont be getting my visa, but its ok, its better that way! haha

So we had our baptism this week. Ljubo got baptized and it was super cool, he is doing good and will endure to the end!

We had another missionary meeting and my comp and i had to teach. I did only ok, but everyone liked it.

We had transfers, i am staying zone leader and i am getting a new comp!
Cool fact: because of the personal english class the mission avergages are going up very very fast! All we do is teach now!

We had so so so much to do this week, i am suprised we made it through everything! our new president is coming in two weeks!

Thats about it! i am doing good! just really busy!
ps... dad thanks a ton for checkin up on becoming a principal! i am about 90% sure thats what i want to do! Now i have to deciede which school i am going to!

ps... i will send you guys some more pictures sometime!

*IMPORTANT* ADDRESS CHANGE FOR ELDER SCHNEIDER

Dear Parents,


This is to inform you of the moving of our Mission Office to Zagreb, Croatia. As of the lst of July we will be operating out of that office. President & Sister will be leaving and President and Sister Rowe are the new Mission President.
Croatia has many different rules for their country. We do not fully understand them all; but when you send your missionaries letters you will now use the address as follows:


Slovenia/Croatia Mission 

Crkva Isusa Krista Svetaca Posljednjih Dana

Svačićev Trg 3

10000 Zagreb, Croatia

If you intend to send packages you are not to address them to your missionary. Use the address above and put the missionaries name as the return address with your physical address. The reason for this is that if it is addressed to him/her then they will have to come to Zagreb and pick it up at the post office themselves, which of course they can't do, because they are living in other towns. Your packages will probably be opened and gone through and perhaps charged customs if is over $55.00 in value.

LETTER: Elder Colton Nunley • June 20th, 2011

hello family,

i love you guys so stinkin much!! haha the mission is so good right now. i have to say thanks to Elder Schneider though. his letter last week helped me out so stinkin much. because here too i{ve been workin so stinkin much with hardly any success and to be honest it stinks haha. but i loved what he said about (oh my gosh the guy here at the cyber just started playing the harmonica and is playing a hymn, How Great Thou Art he is totally not member) haha but yeah so i loved what Elder Schneider talked about working smarter and so i{ve changed a bunch of things and its already starting to be better. for example we have bikes here but to be able to talk with more people we only walk now. even though it is so much hotter walking its so much better talking to more people. also tomorrow we are going to be teaching english lessons haha i figured if it is working so so stinking well over there in Slovenia why not here in México. so im super pumped for that and the members are too.

oh yeah that reminds me there is a family here in the branch and the mom totally reminds me of Mom and the daughter of demory. haha its pretty crazy.

so when we talk with the families and stuff in the streets i ask the kids how old they are and oh my gosh and the kids that tell me they are 12 scare me to death haha. cuz i think about how amoray is about to have her special day this week HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!! and they all look so stinkin old haha when i come home i dont know if i will be able to recognize demory dayton and am haha i imagine they are all gonna change a ton haha.

so this week it got up to 111 degrees haha.... yes it is stilll ooooober hot.

haha but Elder Schneider thanks a bunch i will let you know how the classes go and if you have any hot tips lemme know haha

oh my gosh in the package that you send mom, could you please please please please send gatorade mix!! haha all the people here say that water doesnt do anything when its this hot haha and for real gatorade is way better when it makes so much heat haha

umm id have to say that Mario Guardiola is my favorite person here is Saucilllo haha before he met with us he had been drunk for 4 and 1/2 months straight and becuase he wanted to change he gave it all he had to repent and change his life to come closer to Christ. But yeah so im super excited for this week we have lots to do.

oh dayton with how much money you are making i wanted to share a little bit about what mexico is like. a lot of the people that i talk to here say that there is no work here and when there is they can usually get about up to 150 pesos every week....that is a dicent(i dont know how it is spelled) job. 150 pesos is about 14 bucks and imagine you are making that every hour!! pretty crazy huh.

oh so another thing that boosted my confidence this week is i read the talk from the conference by Elder Johnson that talks about how all of us are going to see trials but they are essential to be able to live with Heavenly Father again. There is a way good scripture i think its in Romans 8 that talks about what is it going to be that seperates us from Christ. that talk is way good.

OHHH something way cool that happened this week is that the father of the Branch President has been inactive for about 6 months now and Elder Zuvire and i went and taught the family and we taught the talk by President Uchtdorf about the guy who went on the cruz and found out the last day all that he was missing. and guess what... HE CAME TO CHURCH on Sunday haha it was so cool like all the members were crying and what not haha but yeah

hey dad HAPPY Fathers day!!!! thanks for coming to the border to receive the congratulations and all haha. welp i gotta go ... Love yall

LETTER: Elder Brayden Schneider • June 13th, 2011

hey dad thanks a bunch for the information on becoming a principal!!!
So this week i am sending a short letter cause i wanted to look up some stuff that i needed to look up about becoming a principal!

Ok so.... Ljubo is getting baptised this week! on Saturday! i am super stoked.

We had 3 investigators at the baptism on Saturday!

We got a new baptism date... his name is luka!

We dominated........ we really really worked hard.

We got 4 new investigators.... which is amazing... and 6 progressing... which is even cooler. A couple of our investigators should be getting baptismal dates soon!

We had meetings, lessons, and thats about it!

Also the branch president really really likes us. He had the interview with Ljubo and mentioned how prepared he is and that he is liken what is going on in the branch!

So some good news, this week is the last week of English class and like 9 out of the 12 students will be or already are investigating! So now we have a huge pool of people to teach... so why not get even more!! So we are doing English class again and starting in a couple weeks.

Thanks for everything!

ps... I am really thinking about being a principal, and Matt Meyers and i are going to start a couple of businesses!

Missionary work is FUN.... ONLY WHEN YOU HAVE SUCCESS! hahaha i have really learned that principle this transfer!

LETTER: Elder Colton Nunley • June 13th, 2011

hey family,

oh my gosh i would just to first of all start off by letting you all know how unbelieviably ridiculously disgustingly amazingly inconcievably hot it is here haha so im gonna share a story about the heat and we will see how many people believe me even though i promise you that it is totally and completely true. so this week my companions pedals on his bike melted from the pure heat haha like for real they turned into straight up gum looking like stuff haha and so we ripped the pedals off (but in the middle of the pedal there is like a little metal bar and that little metal part burned a whole all the way through his shoes haha oh my gosh for real everyday after eating until like 6 my brain is fried haha i dont know how else to explain this heat,,, but the point is is that it is super hot haha.

oh yeah that is totally fine if you send my letters to krabby,, HEY KRABS!!! haha oh John Robinson yes i am getting your letters haha thanks for writing too but for real there is no time to write back sorry! For real thanks to everyone who is writing me getting letters is the best and i appreciate it so much even though i dont write back.

So this week we got a reference from a family in Chihuahua for some people who live here in Saucillo that we should go and teach and so we went and turns out that this lady is super depressed. Her husband just barely died and then shortly after that her son was murdered so now she is just living really super depressed and we had visited her a couple times before but hadnt been able to teach like a real lesson until yesterday and we taught the Plan of Salvation and how she can know exactly where her loved ones are. i felt really impressed during the lesson to talk about Nate Williams and how much comfort it gives me to know where he is at and to know 110% that he is absolutely loving where he is at. and to be honest i teared up a bit and she did too haha but the best is that after the lesson she said she was going to pray to feel the same sureity haha i think thats how it is spelled, that she felt in the lesson.

Man being a missionary and jsut focusing on other people is th ebest!! for real i love every single day!!

so President Angulo has been talking alot about the santification process that all of us need to be going through and this morning in my studies i read a talk about the Atonement of Jesus Chirst and i love every single time i read the scriptures because all the things htat we hear all the time can really jump out at us all of a sudden and that is what happened today. I read a part that talked about how Jesus Christ could very easily know what we would need to feel better through revelation, BUT what he did was a pure act of love becuase instead he suffered EVERY SINGLE pain affliction temptation whatever it be and knows now EXACTLY what we need in those hard times to get closer to Him and get through those difficult times. Studying about faith just blows my mind al the time too haha for real like Ether 12:4 the hope of a better world that is so stinking awesome!!!

haha oh i love getting the letters from Elder and Hermana Schneider please keep sending them.

I love all of you guys so stinkin much!!
Elder Nunley

LETTER: Sister Adrienne Schneider • June 13th, 2011

hola Dad!

YA, OUR PRESIDENT IS GREAT!!!! glad you could watch the video :)

i think we are both getting old dad...haha i am sore-my shoulders from carrying our bags and coats and everything!...i can´t run in the morning cuz it is sooo cold and it is just hard to get my comp up...we choose our battles. and i don´t know if we can run outside early in the morning for safety reasons in this area either...but i miss running! a sore bum...haha....tmi :)

i LOVE THE PIC OF ELDER SCHNEIDER!!! I WANT ONE!!!HAHAHAA THAT IS GREAT! HE looks sooo good and i am happy that he seems to be doin really well. im sad i couldn´t talk to him on mother´s day...but that is okay. time is flying soooo fast!!!!

can you tell grandma nerdin i am so sorry to hear about Don! and tell her i am using those shoes she allowed me to get!!! they are the best and i don´t know what i would have done without them!!! serious! my others broke...haha like the sole cracker totally through. but give her a hug and maybe some chocolate from me!!!! :)

1. What is the simplest thing you do each day that increases your faith?
From the begining of my mission, i have been trying to write one thing i am grateful for and a time that I felt the Spirit during the day. (i haven´t done too good of a job writing it in the field,) but there is more power in gratitude than I realized. It is also the first ¨be¨that Gordon B. Hinckley gave....¨Be Grateful¨.I think gratitude increases your faith. it shows that you see God in your life!

I think it is the precursor and finish to Faith-- the knot that ties the blessings in your life. We have a ton of blessings, but when we show we acknowledge those blessings, they become more personalized and more our own. It opens the door to faith because we realize how much the Lord blesses us and he really is always watching and blessing us. When we realize the blessings in our life, God only wants to bless us more. like the story of the Leper who was grateful. And the Spirit....is often more simple than we think. We don´t have to be brilliant to be grateful. We really need the Spirit and i am trying to learn how it speaks to me!

2. What is the best time of day for you?
hmmm...i realy like to write emails to the family! best time of the day....not sure...i love to write the family! whatever time that is! i also like to go to bed...we are usually pretty tired at the end of the day :) it is too hard to pick ony one time of day!

i love when i feel comfortable with the people we are with. haha. we have a new investigador, who will probably get baptized and she is 16. she is just great and loves us to visit! i love those times of day when i am with the investigadors that love to hear what we have to say!!! we told her about the plan and how we have a mission song that talks about how before this life we had friends. one friend was born in the gospel in the earth and the other didn´t have the gospel...but the friend from before they were born found them during their mission. we told her about this song and she loved it and just gave us huge hugs after! i love when the investigadors love to learn about the gospel. :) we have only known her for a week...but it feels like years!!!!

will you be sure to thank bishop chamberlain for helping with the mission. thanks to all those other people too that have contributed to me to have this opportunity to serve a mission (thanks to you and mom too)!

much love daddio

LETTER: Elder Colton Nunley • June 6th, 2011

Subject: Re: Did you know it takes longer to drive to ND than to fly to Australia?

hey family! thats neat about nates funeral and that everyone is doing good with it.

sounds like you all want to hear about my new companion so i{ll share a little bit about him. so he is from the biggest city in the world haha Mexico City and he doesnt like at all how the people here talk. he is really cool and we can teach together with lots of enthusiasm but he is really negative haha like its sarcasm but really negative haha he has a lot of patience with my spanish because he answers my questions that i have about spanish all the time but everytime i ask a question he calls me an idiot haha thats the type of sarcasm like i know he doesnt mean it and he is just kidding but imagine trying to learn a new language and everytime you ask a question you get called and idiot and you´re told you dont know anything haha so i talked to him about that and he said he´ll stop hahah but we´ll see about that. but like i was saying we get along really well other than that for real i love him haha he is way cool and im super pumped to work with him a bunch. everyday in our studies together we receive revelation in where we can improve and whats cool is that Most of the time we remember to apply it during the day. i hope that we can be here for a couple months together so that we can get things down pat haha that is one of the down sides of me getting moved around so much haha i´ve never really had my area, i dont know how else to explain it but i think i will be staying here for a while. Ojalá :)

but this week we have had a bunch of success and we have been working with a lot of younger people which is good because the branch needs that haha.

but yeah the Liahona with the conference talks JUST BARELY arrived haha oh my gosh im loving em. i still think that the talk by Elder Scott is the best. and not because it talks about marraige but because he talks about love alot and charity and just doing things for other people and the security that we have in the gospel knowing that familys last much much longer than just this life. i also am loving the talk by Elder Ballard about the little pieces of gold and how we should look for the small examples of love from Heavenly Father instead of the Huge miracles that we sometimes look for. i realized that is also another weak spot in my humility is i like looking for the big things when instead i should be more than content with all of the uncountable smaller blessings that i have that add up to an incredible amount.

MOm you should totally try to learn spanish like that. but im pretty sure that Julie Beck studied spanish too to be able to understand why things are written the way they are. cuz there are a lot of rules and conjugations that will throw you for a loop if you dont study them.

I love you all so stinkin much and thanks for writting me every week and for all that you do.

oh yeah in the picture that im sending i bought all those cheetos for 2 american dollars haha for real

LETTER: Sister Adrienne Schneider • June 6th, 2011

LOGAN IS A HUNK!!!! glad you were able to graduate little brother! nice job! i loved the pics!!!haha...
logan¨ it is okay to let mom kiss you.....¨

2 questions:
1- What have you learned most about yourself while on your mission?
I have learned and am learning that it is hard for me to accept help. Also, it is hard for me that I am not perfect, and that we are still living life in the journey...not only when we arrive to the destination. The best way is God´s way...and we can´t return to Him solo...we need the Savior and Atonement of Jesus Christ in our lives...

2- What have you learned that you dislike doing on your mission thus far?
I really don´t like bus contacts or talking on the phone in Spanish. i get nervous talking in front of people in English...let alone..Spanish!!! The phone is hard and i get really nervous to talk in front of all thepeople inthe bus and on the phone.

wehave.really.seen.some.miracles.here.though! the.ward.is.supper.supportive! i think we may have found a family that has the potential to be baptized too! we are super excited!!! we have really been looking for new investigadors because they didn´t look orcontinue tocontact people inthe street. it is pretty amazing though!!! almost everyhouse we were at, we were waiting, and then someone would come around the corner and let us into their house...which was the house we were waiting at!!! there are so many minimiracles!!! i am sure there are more that i can account for tooo! THE LORD CONTINUES TO BLESS US!!!! AND ESPECIALLY ME! we asked for permission to visit someone extra early. usually we don´t do that, but weasked permission and went and this girl has a lot of interest inthe church....i am so excited!

the other day...we did a bus contact...i tried toask the bus driver for permision to speak to the people on the bus.... we could say the spanish was a DISASTER, but he smiled and told me he had no idea what i said.....so we contacted the bus ...haha hoping we had the permission. oh well....at least he smiled.

i love to be with the elders and with all the missionaries! it is just great! weare lucky to have the priesthood!!! iwas just reading about maeta...it is so true!

you sound super busy! how great bout the marathon...half...i would love to run! it is getting cold out... i would love to hear the music to the play...i bought a speaker thing that plays music andmy mp3 player... and it can play a USB drive too...if you want to send one with music...that would rock....! it was a lucky find becuase we don´t havea lot oftime to look for things, but it has been a fantastic purchase and i love to listen to music!!!!

anyhow, time is about up! time is flying so fast!!!! this is our last transfer withour president and i am so sad. you should writehim!!! he is SOSOSOSOSOSOSOSO AMAZING!!! I AM SO SADHE WILLBE LEAVING!!!!

loveyou dad!!! good luck with everything...haha

always your adri,(stevie)

LETTER: Elder Brayden Schneider • June 6th, 2011

Congrats Logan for graduating!
hey!!!! ok so this week... crazy! i know i always say that but recently we have had tons going on!

Ok so we have an investigator named Luka, and he is a super cool guy. Well we had a lesson with him and he said he didn't come to church and he said he would so we were asking him why he didn't! and he said he just isn't used to it, and that he would feel uncomfortable because he doesn't have the nicest clothes, so the next lesson i got him a shirt and then took off my favorite Serbian tie and gave it to him. It was a win-win situation... because he got a sweet tie, and i didn't have to wear a tie for the rest of the day! But he came to church and liked it! i love that kid, he is some funny stuff.

Ok then one of our English students came into class and he read a ton in the BOM and really liked it, so we read a chapter together and he wants to be baptised! bomb huh?
ok so i have never even dreamed about having this much success almost everyone that have came to english class is investigating! they love it, i finely found out a way to get Slovenians to trust me and then get them to trust the lord! its amazing what we are seeing.
The members are really liking it too, the branch president had a little interview with us and asked us how HE can improve! (he didnt like missionaries at all last transfer) It was an amazing step, i really really really like what is going on.

This week we called and planned out lessons and we have a lesson almost ever single hour for the whole week!!!!!! Amazing! When we were planning this week we set goals for like 7 people at church and 15 other lessons and 4 new baptismal dates, last transfer i would have never dreamed about having this kind of success. And all of those goals are very reachable!
I had an interview with president this week and it was really good. He likes what we are doing, but is worried that we could get sick of doing english class, but i am not even close to sick of it! I am finely seeing success, my whole mission i worked hard for no success and now i am just working smarter for a TON of success. It is just alot alot alot alot alot more fun! hahaha
Ps... We have an investigator who is going to be baptised on the 18th of June, he is a super nice man. And the best part is a recent convert is baptising him and then the Branch president is going to give him the gift of the holy ghost! (we told him he had to choose members, cause converts need the member contact, more then missionary contact.) And we are hoping for a couple other people after him.
pss... I heard they finely annoced who our new mission president is going to be! (we were supposed to hear like 10 months ago) But check him out, he should be on lds.org! I have heard alot of rumors that he is not your ordinary man.
psss... Dad dont forget to talk to the pricipals that you know. i would love to know what i need to do.
pssss... i got a dictionary for russian so many after my mission i will start learning russian and spanish with you mom!
