July 24th, 2012 Emails

Hey Britt,
 
I have not heard anything about this CO shooting cause of the whole no news thing, what happened? Anyways the area is still pretty much the same. We have picked up a few more people we are teaching. Actually, we are teaching this LA woman with 2 kids. She got divorced a while ago and wants to go back to church but it is too painful. It just reminded me of you a little bit (lol?). We had a good lesson with her the other day and have another one tonight I think. Me and my companion are doing alright. I just don't like the way that he does missionary work. It just bugs me, idk. I think I'm more stressed than last transfer which is weird because we are working very hard right now. But anyways I am making through it all.
 
Good luck with the wedding. Love ya britt!

Hey Dad,
 
I told mom that I gave you guys the wrong zip code. The correct one is 84414, you may get some mail back if you sent any. Today is a state holiday. I was in the Ogden parade this morning. I felt like a rock star. Kinda weird... nothing else really planned for today except a nap.
 
We are technically still teaching the anti-s, but they rescheduled for a few weeks. We are thinking of dropping them though because they aren't really listening, its kind of annoying. Our other gators are doing alright. Its all a bit weird and confusing being in a new area and keeping up with the people, but I am adjusting pretty well. We have an average of about 2 lessons a day which consist of LA and NM and sometimes active members, its all pretty fun stuff though. The members here are actually pretty good. They just go on vacation a lot because they can afford it so people are usually not home which is annoying.
 
Its still crazy that you are Bishop now. So you will be the Bishop to welcome me home in 18 months which is weird. Right now I work with 7 bishops and their job is pretty busy like you mentioned. So many meetings!! We went to 4 different meetings in the morning before church even started! It was very busy ugh. Have fun! I know that you are going to be a great Bishop though because you are so dedicated to the work and you pretty much know pretty well what your doing.
 
So who are the next Priests to go on missions? Can you keep me updated with who is going where? I hope that someone gets called to Ogden. Its the best mission eva!
 
Love ya dad! keep up the Work!
