Dear family and friends,
I miss you all and love you all!!! I have been super busy as the transfer draws near, wow is time flying!! So here in Wasilla, Alaska we
have a Golden investigator for the Cottonwood ward. We have been meeting with them for about 5 visits and they really are into what we
teach. They are an older couple but they love the things we say. They belong to a church right now called 'church on the rock'. They are super anti-Mormon and really don't like us but oh well. So this older couple was going there and they wanted to pretty much start going to the LDS church, but the people from their
congregation found out and WOW were they not happy that they were visiting with missionaries. So they called us and said that we need to
hold our discussions until they can mend relationships with their congregation. NO!! They were Golden, I don't care about relationships,
they like practically told us our church seemed true!!! But they will be ready on the Lord's time. Yesterday, since we cover the YSA ward
we saw the YSA devotional. President Nelson's talk was mind blowing! Can I saw WOW?!? Everyone needs to look it up and watch it, like NOW!! It gives us a warning that we need to start working on now!!!!!! So watch it.
Now for the news, let's see, first Ben Beaudet and Brandon Lemay need to email me please!!
Okay also DAD please email me!
Stevie keep wearing my basketball tights please oh please, that makes my day hearing about you caring about me, also wear my knee pads I wanna see those worn, they are yours so wear them! Also keep battling Stevie you
must always be 110% AGGRESSIVE it's the only way Your coach will ever see you as a star!!! Go get my kind of stats, 21 points and 24 rebounds! That is a game I wanna see you play. If you can do it this or next season, I will get you the coolest gift that you will love. Strive for perfection!
Mom and Dad I love you and the thought of you guys keep me exactly obedient, I even have to correct my trainer on stuff so thanks for
