Doing Well in Missouri



haha hey every body!!!!
hey all is well in missouri. we just got back from Houston, 
MO on saturday it was pretty cool no new investigators 
there tho kind of a bummer,but its cool. i actually got
pretty sick this last week so we couldnt get much teaching 
in for two days it was bad i still not sure what happend ha. 
like i had a fever at first and realllly bad stomac pains me 
and elder blatter think it was this weird mexican food place 
we ate at haha it was a wanna be mexican food place haha. 
but it was pretty good but must have just been bad meat 
any way. it started getting pretty bad so my comp gave me a 
really awesome blessing and i passed out on the coutch for a 
couple hours and no joke as soon as i woke up i felt totally 
fine! its was such a testimony builder of the power of the 
savior and priesthood power it was soo awesome. and it was it 
perfect timing because yesterday we got the feeling to go to a
place called Norwood MO i think was what it was called its out
west of where i live. any way it was my first time going out 
there and elder blatters second time but neither of us knew 
what to expect but we followed in faith and faith lead us 
right where we needed to be it was so cool haha. the 
investigators name is jack elder blatter rememberd meeting him
 his first time going there back at the begining of his mish. 
oh man i dont even know where to start with him! ha. he is a 
older guy i thnink he said he was 57 he looked younger but ya. 
we spent about an hour just listening to him and all his life 
stories talk about wow he has been through sooooo much. i wont 
be able to tell ya all about him but maybe in a letter or 
something because his story really is amazing i truely admire 
him. but any way where he is out now is so perfect i mean for 
us. he was just in a terrible motorcycle accident and got hooked
on these pain killers that led to depression and nightmares 
about the war and led to a really bad divorce which he is one
of those big bad tough dudes but yet is all it to mushy love 
stuff ha. but ya he loved his wife soo much and still does i 
wish i could show you all he does for her  > but another 
time any way ha sorry. as we started listening he was just going
on and on and on and we didnt even have to say anything about 
our lesson he just kept saying all this stuff about the gospel
that just took us by suprise that he believed it oh man it was 
just ahh it too hard to explain! it was just prooves that we are 
just here on a mission to find gods elect prepared. we honestly 
just asked him if he would be baptised and he said yes. it was
so amazing too much to type sorry just know god is soo real and  
all around us everyday we just have to stop and look around. 
he is in every one and he will guide you to where he needs you
or where you need to be. its only been week two and i have 
learned and grown soo much more then i thought i could in a 
life time. it truely is mind blowing and so humbling at the 
same time. i love it so much. i wont lie it has been hard at 
times but the highs top the lows by far by soooooooooo far ha.
but ya thats all i have for this week there just has been 
toooo much going on to all say ha. well i love you all and pray
that every thing is ok at home sorry dad that i missed 
fathers day!!!!! know i love ya and i working for them

much but any way. hunter i freaking miss you so much. i dont

and me back in the day ha. like at nights when we use to remind 
eachother to say our prayers haha. haha and how you would finish
