prayers are
answered in so many ways, so grateful for little things like you
having power and warm showers....get toe taken care of so it doesn't get
infected and become worse, have you talked to mission mom about?
I will add Marias name to the prayer roll and the others again as well....
Is Elder Nonu the one you went with last time that is concerned about numbers not the person? Jax just got home from school and is feeling much better than yesterday,, he is anxious for you guys to play again too! :)
Did you go with your district to Monte Alban or zone, get to see any old friends? Are you eating better with power?
How was church, did all 5 investigators go? we will pray that more will be in your paths as you are out and about....staying put all week or do you travel to the other two places again?

in priesthood look everyweek and ask about them and your experiences, they
all guessed wrong on the armadillo soup stuff :) what kind of service projects
do you do in this area? any more branch activities? what are you teaching for
fhe tonight?

werent able to make a fhe night.. tonight we are just visitung..
:) you sound
super busy and super happy, so glad!!! Sister Ivie asked if you got her card
she mailed last month, she is so sweet, she is always so concerned about you
when I go visiting teaching and she prays for you and weeps, she gives me and
the boys $10 for your account whenever she has us do service for her, she says
she wont let us help unless she can contribute to you :)
I ran across this quote by Elder Holland I think on the lds church website....love it and ponder it!
It is not happenstance that the first article of our faith is “We believe in God, the Eternal Father, and in His Son, Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost” (Articles of Faith 1:1). The message is clear for all who teach the gospel. There is no point in going on to the other truths we believe if we haven’t fixed in our minds and in the minds of those we teach the preeminent role of the Godhead in our doctrine and in our eternal destiny. We are to know these Divine Beings in every way we can. We are to love Them, draw near to Them, obey Them, and try to be like Them.

haha thnaks that very nice of her.. i think
im going to get it tomorrow!!! her card.. thats a great quote by him.. i think
its so true... we cant help anyone else get closer to God if they dont know his
true existence...
so think of
things besides garments that you need in your box, and do you like the
ones that we sent you with, remind me what kind...do you need another cool rag?
I have a pair of pants I bought dad and they don't fit so I'm sending
those to you, and of course candies, do you want more cookie dough? :) how are
you for journal and stuff like that? socks?
ya i could use some socks... umm not sure i
had the spandex kind.. but i dontknow what size they have all washed off.. haha
umm i would like some cookie dough.. haha.. and im good with journals!! haha
but this week im completing 15 months...__________
Ill look up
in your mission box and see about garments :) if you can think of anything else
during the week, write it down, and tell me :) ______ we are starting to look
into flights to come get you and we will get in touch with

his reccomend.. so idont know if we can go.. and Pres isnt here in the
city..
darn that
would be awesome to get to go with them to the temple! That is a great trait to
have, training newbees :) maybe that will work into the future plans, its a
talent and not everyone has the patience to deal with those kind of
situations!!
Tell Merrill hi and thanks from me for making things better and being easy to get along with so that my Justeroo is happy and can feel the spirit! I hate the spirit of contention, I know that there must be opposition in all things, but sometimes it wears one down...definitely makes you appreciate the good things tho!!!
any candies sound good, or pasta?
