Dear way beautiful mom still.
So you know how I get move around a lot? Well that still hasn't changed. Transfers came up again and I will now be going to Cour d'elane. I think my purpose here is to travel and explore the whole mission. I've now been in Moses lake, South Spokane, Moscow, North Spokane, Lewiston, and now Cour d'elane. I still haven't been in an area longer then 12 weeks. I really thought this time I was going to last longer but who am I kidding. So I will be moving tomorrow at around 3:15.
Well I had to so good bye to Yire (G-ray) Last night and I'm not going to lie it was very hard for both of us. I will be keeping in contact with her through my mission but it was still very hard. She will also be going back to Mexico on September 14 so I wont be having a chance to ever see her again while I'm on my mission. She is such a strong member though. We have been going through a lot of questions and answers with her lately to try and prepare her when she goes and sees her family again. Her whole family is going to sit around and listen to her about the gospel. So I guess will see what happens.
Things in this area have been so wonderful. A couple less actives have started coming to church. Have 2 people that will be getting baptized soon here. And the lady that we tracted into is going to be baptized. (She just doesn't know it yet) Its so weird how fast you can be attached to new people. It feels like just a couple of days ago I got here. This mission stuff goes by fast. Well I guess the next area I'm going too is one of the biggest anti place's in our mission. So I might have a lot more stories to tell you guys in the next few weeks until I get transferred again in a couple of weeks.
Well sadly this week one of the guys (Don Russel) that we have been teaching the temple classes too, to prepare him to go to the temple went into the hospital because of breathing problems. We were able to finish all the temple lessons with him before he went in though. I will have to be saying goodbye to him today as well.
Suzzet in my last area seems to be doing very well lately. She was asked by the stake president to give her testimony in church a couple of days ago and she is also now a secretary in her ward.
I have also found out that mark and Vickie in south hill that we were teaching also got married and then baptized in the church and just a couple of weeks ago he got the Aaronic priest hood. Also I cant remember is I told you already but the Blest family that we were teaching there also got baptized.
I also cant remember if I told you this one either (sorry) but I found out that also Chris Jones in my very first area(The person we found tracting) also got baptized when he turned 18 because his parents wouldn't let him until he was an adult and he will also be serving a mission in about a year.
Man I love my mission. I'm so glad that god sent me to the greatest mission in the world. Our talk here with Elder Tom Perry of the twelve and also Elder Clayton of the seventies was also a great testimony experience Watching apostles on TV doesn't even come close the power you feel when you are near them. When Elder Tom Perry spoke I knew that this man had authority
from god. Any one there could feel it. It was also a great experience to shake his hand. (By the way Elder Tom Perry is a huge guy. I have never realized how big he actually is)
Well things here are going great. My mission has been going great as well. Well great besides I lost my camera when we went and saw Elder Tom Perry. I have been pretty sad that I have now lost my last 4 transfers of pictures. I have searched every where for it and I haven't been able to find it any where. I'm praying that someone will bring it to me soon. All I really want is that SD card. But other that that everything here is going great. This area was amazing and We will have to come visit here again some time soon when I get back. I love you my most beautiful mom. Oh and did I mention we have the greatest family in the world? I love you =)
