Hellloooo (that is to be said in a Douglas Miller voice)
Well this seems to be too soon already emailing you all again. But any who. To start off this week was really good then it was tough in the middle, then sweet and then yesterday sucked. But overall it has been a sweet week. To start off to finish off last week because you did not get to hear the rest of the week we had zone conference. It was a really good zone conference it was all just a recap from the last one with the general authority Elder Kopshickia (or however you spell a Germans name) they are trained on all the things he trained on. So the zone leader trained on faith and the faith cycle and not changing our goals. Then the assistants trained on teach to find which really was crappy training to be honest nobody liked their training they did a bad job doing it. Then President and Sister Creer trained on lots of things but mainly our purpose of being here on a mission. Then they gave us each a book of Mormon (the cheap ones we give out) and a red pencil. they told us to read it all and mark our purpose in the Book of Mormon (our purpose is to invite other to come unto Christ by helping them receive the restored gospel through faith Jesus Christ and his atonement, repentance, baptism, receiving gift of the holy ghost, and enduring to the end.) it's been way cool to do it because it really sticks out and there is a lot of it in there. After that we got our mail from the office and Elder Johnson got Dear Johned already by his girl. It's been really rough on him.
So the work has been a bit harder but he is over it now and the work is amazing (like Amy) two days after I think we got to teach, and gain two more new investigators named Richey and Virginia. Once again they are two Indians they are not a couple but they live together in a student house. They are really cool and want to learn we are very excited about them and we think things are going amazing. Then we went along like any normal area teaching our investigators and some of our less actives very nicely. so it has been a good week then yesterday came. Yesterday was district meeting an normally good day but our district lord (that his new nickname) started off by saying some of our district has been making phone calls out of our area and to the other zone I need to remind you that is not allowed... That would be us something every missionary does yes you are not supposed to do that but 90% of the elders do it. So he called us out on it by the way we had the zone leader our assistant there because they were on exchanges so instead of privately doing it he announced it. gay !!! Then we bought a foosball table at the charity shop we work at for 5 Euros sweet deal but an elder in our area Elder Elston was gay and called us out on it in front of Sister Creer because we had President interviews, luckily Sister Creer is cool and did not care because elders have ping pong tables in their flats but Elston was trying to get us in trouble, then last night our district leader came in an stole our foosball table while we were working so he was dodgy and stole it. gay
Well I have got to go time is up love you very much.
Brady
hugs and kisses
PS by the way I did not get in any trouble
