hellllloooooo my young friend

how's the face this week? do you think that the pres. will let you grow a stach to cover the scar!!!! :))))) hope all is good with the lip and it is heeling well and I hope there is no scar on that pretty face of yours. it must have taken some real restraint on your end to not respond in a negative manner to your comps actions, and im proud of you for that. your growing into a great man and we can see it in your letters.
     ok now for this week how the new comp? can you mold him into a servant  that our Father in heaven needs him to be? if anybody can do it, it will be you that is a big response ability, but it also very fun you will see him grow the way we as earthy parents see are children grow and that is fun, just keep being that great example and love him, keep loving and serving the people in your mission for that is what are savior wants you to do. don't forget to enjoy and smile. can you believe it's almost one year. so so fast the next will be even fast so keep up the pace don't slow down make your half time adjustment and go out and win the mission.
     your still pretty. you don't look as bad as after the Weber game :))))) you have sure earned your scars. and your thoughts about our Savior and his scars was spot on.

side note Utes are ranked 3 and are 6-0 fun to watch. miss watching you
love you my friend remember to :)
Justin's DAD 

DAD, my son is great! hes come out for the right purpose, we have that fast pase in our step and we are working very hard, i honestly have felt that love for him!! haha i feel like he is my child, he was able to tell me some of his fears, and teaching is one of them. who would have thought.. he speaks spanish and is nervous to talk.. and im white.. and i jsut talk.. but its true everyone is different and ive already seen him make some good adjustments to get better! these 3 months will be good for the both of us! i love you dad thanks for hte love and support you have alwyas given to me!! since i was little up and untilthe very present of everyday! i love you tonsand hope all goes good for the new big job!!! i miss playing..

Dear Elder Weaver,

As we received the photos in a text and heard the story of the rock throwing situation I thought how a young man, such as you companion, was willing to lay so many blessings on the ground and walk away from them.  As I saw my grandson be the other side of a situation I remembered that he was now placed in good company with two other precious servants of the Lord.  I recently had the blessing of teaching the story of Stephen in Acts 7 and how he was tried and persecuted before the wicked Jewish leaders  but they could not put him to death by stoning until he bore his testimony of seeing the resurrected Lord Jesus Christ standing on the right hand of the Father and how that testimony caused them to take off their coats and proceed to stone him.  As he was dying he caught the vision of what the Savior said while on the cross and then repeated it about his attackers.  The irony of the circumstance was that another (Paul) who would be converted and eventually be stoned was there holding their coats.  Paul had a very dramatic conversion and in an instant changed his life to become probably the greatest missionary ever.  Because of his testimony he was stoned and the story is found in Acts 14. 

Elder Weaver you are in good company and as you go on now we can only maintain the hope that something dramatic will happen to your companion that will bring light to his life and he might experience a mighty change that will cause him to increase in his love for others, his testimony and desire to step outside himself and know there is more to life than what he is experiencing.  He is on the verge of giving up so very much that will affect his life for the remainder of it.  Well enough of my preaching.  I just wanted you to know that you walk with at least two other great missionaries who experienced stoning and so you are deservingly in good company, keep up the good work!!!

What a blessing we have in knowing that the Lord has chosen 3 men to be special witnesses and serve as Apostles of the Lord Jesus Christ.  To raise our hands to the square was a blessing and honor.  I, like you enjoyed conference and I wish it was every month as I get so very much out of it to encourage me to step up and be more.  May the Lord bless you and provide you with all you need, want and desire to accomplish the work you were sent there to do.  You are not only blessing the non-members but so many other members and missionaries with how you walk as an ambassador of the Lord Jesus Christ.  So very proud of you and we pray for you in a very special way each day.   

We Love you!!!

Grandma and Grandpa B
