Family family family,
Scripture of the week: D&C 135:3-6.
Mom your idahoan/californian/montanian is great, by the time
I get home I will have an Idahoan/utahn/wisconsinian/
vermontese/mainer/newhampshister/and hopefully a little canadian. Accents are
the coolest thing ever, and its getting kind of scary how often I use the new
englander terms. such as wicked, all set and geezum. But I guess that just
means it’s becoming a part of me right??
I’m glad you were able to share my testimony of the prophet
with the primary I miss those little linrose kids, they are all keepers. As you
will see from my scripture of the week my testimony of the prophet has grown
even stronger this week, I found an ensign from October of 1987 and
in it was an article about the prophet and it said something along the lines of,
when we think of Joseph we should think of how fearlessly he served and loved
the savior! I thought that was pretty neat. I had a guy tell me this week that
the book of Mormon is BS and it’s a good thing im a missionary or he may have
found himself on the ground. I have become very passionate about the gospel and
I am learning how to channel that into good missionary focus, but the key word
there is LEARNING. But I do love that I can now say without a shadow of a doubt
that I KNOW the church is true.
Things with investigators are going well; Dave is reading
the book of Mormon and is really starting to catch hold of what it is saying.

This week was our best week ever as far as stats go, not
that that’s what it’s all about, but they help to motivate us. We taught 16
lessons total, so it was incredibly rewarding.
Best of luck to Lou with cheer stuff, and to mom with work,
you all will be in my prayers. Thank you for the cow pictures and the video of
audra they all look good, and I can’t wait to see pics of audra calved in.
The rule here in the NHMM is we have to wear our suit
jackets all the time till it hits 70, well guess what it hit 70 one day this
week so we got to go with just shirts and ties for a day it was great. Supposed
to hit 70 a few days this week too.
Fun experience street contacting in st johnsbury this week,
no one wanted to talk to us, so I decided I would just be super bold so the
next person I saw I said " Hey do you want to be baptized" yup it was
fun he took a book of Mormon.
Last night Brother Rick Cochran did a fireside here at the
church called sacred sites, talking about the places where the book of Mormon
stories took [place it was very neat.
While we were eating refreshments sister French an 80 plus
year old lady was talking to someone about me and goes yeah the tall handsome
one is from Idaho I turned to her and said hey is it appropriate to talk about
missionaries that way? She turned about 200 different shades of red. Good
times.

Well I think that’s about all I’ve got for today, oh
transfer calls are this Saturday the 4th. I am anxious to see what will be happening.
Can you believe another six weeks has already come and gone, so crazy.
Love you guys,
you are all in my prayers.
