Hey family
What's the story? Well things here are doing alright. I'm a bit nervous to be honest. Its moves call tonight we actually where supposed to have them last night but president was too busy counting the baptism's. (jk hopefully someday) no but president was unable to make the moves call so its tonight. Nobody is sure what's going to happen because the way these moves are going to work it's going to be strange.
That's really cool that you where able to go to Saint George this Thanksgiving. I'm jealous. My Thanksgiving was really good though. This lady Lisa made a turkey, roasted potatoes, vegetables, stuffing and she bought a couple of other things soooo good. The cool thing is Elder Johnson and I ate all to ourselves. We were very full after it all. It was really nice. You can tell the family I look forward to 2010 Thanksgiving, but they may be sick of me by then because I've decided I want to go to Dixie when I get home.
Jade is a really cool girl. She is an awesome investigator. She is going to a Catholic school because basically the Pope runs Ireland. But anyways her religion teacher is not happy with her choice to investigate our church. Jade just tells her it's none of their business. Also she has been pulled into her principal's office over it and once again she says it does not matter for them. We have taught her the plan of salvation even though it was a really rough lesson she seemed to get it so hopefully it all works out I think we may end of re teaching that one. Also her mom seems to be now interested in it. Jade went to find her book and her mom had it and was looking into it, so that would be way cool if we could start teaching her mom as well.
We have one really cool thing happen to us this week. We had an investigator named John who we really liked and he wanted all of our books so we got him a triple combination and the bible with his name embossed for him when we went to give it to him we just stopped by with no warning. When he answered it he was not happy and tried to run us off. We asked him if we could just please give him the books (because they would be no good to us with him name on it). We got him to finally take the books and he dropped us, said we could not come back and teach him till April. As you can see it was not what we where expecting and were very sad about it cuz we liked him. That Sunday at church John showed up out of the blue. He was so sorry and felt bad he then apologized for it all and said thanks so much for the books and said it was the best gift anybody could give. He then said we could stop by whenever we want to just phone him before. He also loved church and was really happy for it all. We taught him on Monday the restoration properly and he loved it, we also watched the DVD which he loved and now he is a very promising investigator.
Well it's really good to hear all my friends are doing well. I'm glad you where able to see them all. Like I said they decided they no longer care about me, but oh well. I have my brother's in the gospel that care about me. Chris really wants to stay in touch with me as you can see and Emily writes me frequently that's good enough for me. Justin will get to the field and realize how bad it sucks not to get mail. Maybe I will write him one last letter and see if he replies to it.
Well I love you all and I'm so glad to hear how good things are going for you all. I'm very happy to hear about that.
hugs and kisses
