But Now You Will Always Remember Me...

Hey dad and family!! I am in the draper mountain point stake and i cover 10 wards. good news is that i had my first baptism on saturday so i already have some stats on the papers. im not in it for the numbers, but i have set a goal of a number of people baptized and i am already on track to achieve that. if im obedient and rightous and work hard i will achieve my goal. The peole that are here are so nice, the work is going great! we have a few really strong investigators that are ready to get baptized so we just are waiting it out till they attend church 3 times before we can actually baptize them. Ask the missionaries in out ward when they invite sonmeone the be baptized? in this mission we state our purpose for being here and commit them to baptism in the fist 5 minutes we meet them. if you do it right with the spirit than they will say yes everytime! i got my bike and it is legit! i havent got to ride it yet cuz my comp is a lazy pants, or how he says it, "trousers" which is not only wrong but completely wrong! :) haha and yes dad i smacked him down for touching my stuff. thats not ok. ummmm o ya he is 6 foot, like 120 and skinny as skinny. he said he was gonna play pranks on me, so i told him that i would brake him in half like a tooth pick and so he called all of his pranks off :) But ya i am here and good! Elder senethip is not in my zone and i have no idea how he is doing. thanks for writing him please continue, i think that he is still iffy about it. i miss the snow, o i have an adress of a guy in a ward that knows the football coach for byu football, he said if you send him a highlight film he will walk it down there and hand it to him personally. so if that ever happens that would be awesome. thanks for everything that you do. sorry about the mess that i left you, but now you will always remember me :) tell fischer that he is cool now that he is 16 but he will always be mine and haydens little grr! haha jk i love you bro! I have learned a lot and am continuing to learn i love you guys!!

Feeling the Spirit Takes alot Out of Your Body....

Hey Family!! first thing is first, i dunked the basketball 3 times easy yesterday! the air is thinner here and i think thats why i can all of a sudden jump higher. the mtc is an awesome place! i have learned so much. the spirit guides missionaries in everything that we do! as i have been here i have been able to reflect on all of the blessings that i have recieved, and wow i have gotten a lot of blessings, i think the biggest reason is because of how close we are as a family and we are that way because of the church! Invite people to everything!! by not inviting people to do things like go to church, we are taking away their agency to even chose, so invite sombody to church every week! hey one other thing, the temples are amazing places, the lord really does walk the halls in the temple and i would go every single day if i could. the life of a missionary is very tiring. feeling the spirit takes a lot of energy out of your body. just like how moses got the commandments and is said that he aged 40 years!!? wow!! if you go to bed and you still have energy that you didnt work as hard as you should have that day. the lord never gives us more than we can handle. lood up 1 nephi 3 :7 i think is where nephi says i will go and do the thing the lord commands....? look it up because that is what life is all about, that scripture is up there on my favorites, if thats not the one than find it. I love you guys!! anyway i just ran out of time, i love you guys! your all that i have and i am glad for the support. but dont write me this week. find out elvis's info and write him!!! not me! he is thinking of going home because he has no support. so please help him stay, you can bless many lives through him if you write to him! this is serious so please do that. if you have time to write me at all use it on him. he needs it more than anyone. i love you guys and thank you for helping. that is very important. I love you and i wil talk to you when i can. I leave for the feild the 22. Love you guys! Peace!!!!
