Man ! My heart was pounding when I started reading the part about Aidan and the pool !!!! I'm glad he's OK.

Glad to hear everything is well . Sounds like a good visit with Papa Gary and Grandma MaryAnne and Grammie Adeline. Tell them I love them!!

It was a great week! The conference with Elder Johnson was really great. I also had another trainers meeting and that went well. Church was awesome yesterday. Sacrament meeting was about missionary work and there were some great talks !!! Then the young men and we missionaries sang "Army of Helaman" and Ricky even sang with us !!! HAHA I was pumped!
Our other investigator and her mom came too and they had an awesome experience. Her mom is the LA (less active) who is so amazing ! She made us tamales the other day !!! So good !!!!

Ricky is getting baptized next Monday !!!!! He is really excited and things are going good.
I love being a missionary !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love you all !!!!!!!!!

That's so cool that Ana was in CO Springs !!! I was there yesterday for a meeting.

I found out that I am training another new missionary and ... I am staying in Rye, looks like Andersen has lost that revelation touch HAHA !! JK brother, love you ! I'm pumped that you are friends on facebook.

I will miss Elder Bentley but I am excited for him, change in the mission is exciting. He will find out where he is going Nov 1st.

Our investigator Ricky is getting baptized on Halloween !!! He wanted it to be a day he would not forget. HAHAHA !!! I love this guy !!! With his South Carolina accent and all. He is totally turning his life around it is beautiful !

Also our other investigator is preparing to be baptized and her mom just moved in with her and she is starting to come back to church as well as the brother/son. We are seeing miracles !!!!

I found out that a missionary that came out with me is training Kerry Clegg's nephew. He is in good hands. I am excited that I will be here in Rye for the holidays ! It is a great ward and so beautiful !!!

We have a lot of great missionaries in this mission and our mission President is so in tune with spirit. We have matching moles on the left side of our noses... so we were best buds immediately !!! HAHAHA

Tell Stacy I love her SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much and miss her everyday !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love you all !!!!!!!!! Thank you for your prayers and support !

I felt so bad cause I had Widdle Bwookwynns birthday in my mind all day last Monday until I came to e-mail and I forgot !!! I am so glad that it was a glorious celebration, I wish I could have been there !!! But that's OK. She is so precious !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't have a whole lot of time cause we have an appointment so I am sorry Maa. I will have to tell you more about our investigators later. I did get a package today but have not opened it yet I am pretty sure it is the journal ! Thank you so much !!!!

Things are going great ! It looks like I will be training again next transfer ... ... I know its what the Lord wants but I am not looking forward to the stress !!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll be alright. I am gonna miss Elder Bentley, but he will be a great missionary and has a lot to offer this mission.

The chances look pretty good that I will be staying in Rye, so I am pumped about that !!!!!!!! It snowed up in the mountain tops here already a few days ago !

We had a straight up "Amittyville horror" situation up here this past week and a half. Some of the craziest things I have ever seen but I will not get into detail. I love being a missionary !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The truth will go forth BOLDLY!!!! (with love) ;]

It is cool to see our investigator "Ricky" prepare for baptism and to see the change that has come about him. He has made a complete 180 and it is amazing !!!!!!! He is getting baptized on Halloween ! HAHA A day he will never forget.

I love you all and miss you all !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well it sounds like you had an amazing trip Maa ! Glad you got home safe. That's awesome that everyone got to get together for Travis' B-DAY !!! And TOOTS was even there ?!!!!!! ;] Things are going really great, we have 5 new investigators right now. 2 of which are being baptized on the 16th of this month !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love being a missionary, and to be able to share Gods great message of eternal families and how Jesus Christ Atonement allows all of us to be able to return to live with our Father and Heaven and savior Jesus Christ. General conference was incredible as always !!!!!! Seeing the primary kids sing was really cool. What a blessing it is to have a living prophet of God on the earth and 12 Apostles. The Book of Mormon IS the word of God and IS another testament of Jesus Christ. And proves that He lives and that He is the savior of the world !!! The Book of Mormon is a testimony that the Bible is the word of God as well ! The Gospel of Jesus Christ is essential for eternal life !!!!!!!!!! I am so grateful EVERYDAY for my Father in Heavens mercy and for my Savior sacrificing for ME personally, it has changed my life !


I LOVE YOU ALL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
