Week 6

Mom/family,

     Again, no big email this week. but i will have exponentially more time when im in the field, which is not this pday but the next. So i´ll be writing them then again. I guess my mission scripture is Ezekial 34:12... i ran across it this week in my studies and wrote a whole half page about it in my notebook expounding on it with the footnotes and other resources. Its amazing to me how personally involved the Savior is in His work. I wrote this in my letter to you, but i´ll say it here too, it was my goal to memorize 50 words this week. I looked back at how many i actually memorized on sunday and it was about 500. I was pretty shocked, i know the Lord is involved. It makes me think of how important it is then to teach by the spirit, as the scripture says, I, even I, will search out my lost sheep; then in the next verse it says that He will deliver them. I love that wording. Anyways, there it is!

    We talk to people all the time on P-day, or at least i do haha. I just start up conversations with strangers and try to really listen for their accents and things like that. Sometimes it´s difficult with all the colloquialisms and little phrases, but i love speaking with them. They are really a very open and friendly people.

     We had a little thanksgiving meal... not much and certainly nothing compared to the fabulous cooking of mom and randy. I certainly do miss those sweet potatoes with marshmellows right about now. That´s good to hear about Nate, i´m happy to hear it. I usually pray for each one of you individually every night... it just makes me feel a little closer to you i suppose.

     As for rach and john, i´ll pray for them and the Lord will provide a way! I love you though and appreciate you sending me emails and such, keeping me up to date. Please, share this email with nana and zack if you would! You´re the greatest!

 

Love,
