It Has Changed My Life....

  We are going to baptize Taylor Steiners twin sister.  When she opened the door I was more than a little confused. I just stared at her until she reached her hand out and said  her name, but she is really awesome mom. Her parents are both return missionaries that hate the church but she feels the spirit and wants to get baptized really bad. She is preparing, But she talked to her parents and  told them what she is going to do and they got mad and told her that they would kick her out of the house if she didn’t change her mind and not get baptized. How messed up is that. I can see them reacting like that if she said that she is pregnant or something like that but trying to follow Christ as best she can? come on right? :) But she was an answer to prayers for me for sure. Teaching her the gospel is fun and it is exactly what i needed now. She is so prepared that it brings comfort just knowing that the lord touches people and prepares people and our job is just to create a spiritual experience and then let the spirit teach them what they need. Longest transfer in the history of our mission!! Dang it is an 8 week transfer, and the transfers are on august 14. I know that there will be a change in our companionship but I am not sure if it will be me leaving or staying? We will just have to see. I love this area though. The people here are nice. Mom i just love everything about this experience. It has changed my life and I cannot be any more thankful for this. The time is coming down to a close and really fast. It is going to feel like tomorrow when i am back at the house. I am not very happy about that because i love it here. But it will happen. Thank you for all that you do for me momma!! You are one of the biggest blessings in my life. I was the luckiest little spirit child in the pre earth life when i got to be with you :) Have a great week momma!!! I love you!

Love your son Elder Cache Summers :)

Hey dad!!

The pictures you sent of the ling were great! I bet they tasted good? So there is this lady down here that lived in Alaska for a few years and that is where she got back into the church. But anyways she went and got some salmon and asked me to cook it for her. (She is basically like a grandma to us as missionaries.) But I cooked it with the mayo and onions and garlic and whatever else i wanted to put on it and it was really  really good. Whoever invented that had to be inspired. But Elder Niupalau my companion said he didnt want any because he doesnt like to eat fish, but once I convinced him to eat one bite it was a matter of seconds before the entire fillet was gone. :) It reminded me of home and how we get to eat salmon every day if we want to. There is nothing better than a good old fillet of salmon and onions. o man. It is a hard thought to think that in 6 months i will be back home. We see missionaries come home here all the time and is looks pretty rough. haha but it is a natural part of the plan and it needs to happen. I just cant wait to see the fish that has been growing out there these last 2 years waiting for me to put a lure in front of its face. :) Hopefully he is ready for the fight that we are going to have. Is there any way that i would be able to get you down to Idaho to teach me how to catch a sturgeon? Anyways thank you for opportunity that you and mom have given me to come and bless other people lives. The other night I watched as part of my patriarchal blessing came true and there would have been no way that could have happened if I wasnt choosing the right and if I wasnt doing what the lord wants me to be doing. So as of right now I know with a surety that I was foreordained to be here at this exact time in this exact place to do what the lord needs me to do. Thank you for this chance that you and mom have given me by being my example and leader and most importantly you being my dad and father, and mom being my mother. I love you dad, have a great week!
