Hey!!! Family!!!!,
hey so this week was pretty sweet. friday the mission pres came out with us. he was in town for some training stuff for dls and trainers and he is starting this new thing where, when he is in town he is going to help out the bike areas and go out with them just for the night. like when he came with us it was from 7 until about 930 ish. but oh man it was soooo awesome!! i was really nervous because the work had realllly slowed down when elder treasure left and so i was scrambling to get some set appointments. then when i finally did and he came out they started to cancel!!! so i turned to the Lord for help and He helped soooo much more then i could have asked for. as we were driving i got the strongest prompting to go see courtnie, who is one of our investigators that we have been working with forever and she just recently fell off the face of the earth!! we had not seen her in so long. so when i got the prompting, i didnt think much of it so i just thought, ok it will buy us some time to think of some one to see haha. well when we got there she was home!!! and let us in! and we got to talking with her and she has fallen back to step one again and is smoking again and she was doubting her answer again that this is the true church. so we talked with her and helped and got her back in the swing of things and she is ready to start again ! :)! it was a really cool expirence and im sooooo glad she is back and to be able to see the happiness back in her life .. i love this work so much it truely is of God. the experences i have had here are indescribable. the only way to experence these things and tori will back me on this is to have them for your self . to go on a mission or do missionary work. so anthany and hunter hahah im promising you, as a representative of Jesus Christ, a mission will change your life, for the absolute better. even if you have the best life ever, it will still better it a hundred fold. but if you dont believe it, these words, believe in Christ and in Heavenly Father and just ask Him in the name of Christ if a mission is what you should do. he will tell you that, i can promise. this is His work and His glory. and in lyes true happiness.. well i got to go sorry another scator brained email ha hopefully it made sense. ill right you today for real this week.. ha we have no plans interupting us. ha ill send pictures too and a tape. haha sorry im getting really bad at this, but like i said im back in the groove ha love you all so much and please know that. forgive me for my weaknesses and know that our Father in Heaven loves us sooo much as does Our Savior! love ya!!! bye
