September 30, 2013

Dear Folks,

I saw the pictures, those are ridiculously huge pumpkins. I'm glad the garden is doing well. I hope things go well with your doctor stuff. Did something happen to Joy or is it just as a precaution? I hope she is ok and that things get figured out I'm glad things are going pretty well up there. Sure, I can take the cook book, it would be pretty helpful to have. I will try, so far I haven't been able to figure out how to send pictures home because they are apparently too big, I will try to though, I don't have my camera with me today. Elder Hh is from Texas. He has been out for about 9 months. We get along pretty well and are staying busy.
Sorry I didn't write last week, not much has happened. We have been working hard on getting more investigators, but that is proving to be difficult. The ward isn't super helpful with it, so we spend a lot of time street contacting and tracting now. Most of the people we are working with on a regular basis are less-actives. All the investigators we have are struggling to overcome some sort of addiction or another and all the ones we have that could be baptized are struggling with their families being vehemently against it, which is pretty frustrating. Nothing much has really happened in the last couple weeks, it's pretty much been the same old same old. We have been talking to a lot of people on the streets, though, that seems to be the most effective thing at the moment. Most people either ignore you or tell you to go away but if someone lets you start to talk, the spirit always testifies to them in some way and they usually start to ask questions, but most of the time it usually only goes that far but you never know what seeds you planted because of it.
I love you and hope you guys have a good week.
