It was good, and so was this last week. My P-day is Wednesday and I only get a half hour to write to you and my mission president which kinda sucks. That's nuts how much snow came down, I hope it was warmer this week. It's been really nice here, in the 40's and 50's. My companion is Elder Koby Campbell, if you haven't gotten my hand written letter yet. He's a nice guy and I like him a lot. It was fun getting to spend some time with your family and hearing other mission stories.
That sucks, hopefully more people will move in or come back to church. I did get a new pair of shoes and they are really nice. I can't remember what they're called though. That's cool about Jaeden's project. I know she will do a good job.
Instead of tic tacs could you send mint life savers? They last longer, haha. (Mom's note... too late kid! I got several packages on the way! If anyone else wants to send him some feel free. I will send some in a couple of weeks.)
My companion and I had our first real investigator experience. Here, its called TRC and you meet with someone you have never met before that may or may not be a member of the Church. Our investigator, Thrijae (pronounced 3 jay), is this big Hawaiian guy who didn't want to even let us in at first. We told him it would only take a minute of his time and he agreed. After a few minutes, he asked us to stay and talk with him longer. At first, he was really cold and didn't want to talk to us at all. By the end, we were all choking back tears the spirit was so strong. It was amazing how just a couple of young punks like us who hadn't even been missionaries for a week testified of the truth to a complete stranger enough that he agreed to be baptized. I have never felt so amazing in my life and I cannot wait to get to Reno and do it for real.
I miss you guys too, kinda, not really.Haha, just kidding :)
