Letter from Mission President

Letter from Mission President

April 8, 2009 - Letter

Published by Elder Brady Lee Hafen under on 8:00 AM
Hello family,

It’s great to know you got the package. I have been wondering when or if you got it. I sent it awhile ago and not heard anything about it. So I’m happy you liked it all. I have some new pictures that you will like of here in Tralee and some last bit of Ballyfermot that I did not have room to send. But I think that’s going to be another 8 months before I send, that’s about how long it took last time so I hope you know patience mom. You should have learned it already raising me. Ha-ha.

Well life has continued to go very well and time has moved fast again and it’s already moves call. I did not move and neither did Elder Frye which has made both of us really happy, as well as the people we are teaching. By the way Elder Headington has now become the AP to the president. Linda was not happy when she heard that we might be moving. But we called and told her we were not moving that night. She made us promise so she is happy about that. She has continued to really improve and is starting to get a real understanding about the reasons we do the things the way we do. She still struggles keeping most of the commandments but she is coming around to them. Another really good thing that’s going on with us is we got in touch with an old investigator named Boss. He is from Africa and has said we can teach him again so that is some very exciting news, so we are planning to teach him again. Hopefully at least twice a week.

Alright now mom the Christmas picture was a serious picture that was me modeling my new Christmas sweater for you. I love it-I’m wearing it right now. I wear it all the time. Its way good looking, Elder Williams wants to steal it from me. He saw me wearing it at zone family home evening and told me he coveted it. So thank you so very much for it. I still don’t like to wear hats. I got that one from a charity shop and wear it once in awhile for giggles. Hats don’t look good on me and never really have. I’m just not a hat person. Yes those pictures are supposed to look like the Joseph Smith picture. That was what we were going for. We saw that light through a break in the trees and said that looks like the first vision in the restoration video. So we all posed for it. The ones you see are me and Elder Williams in it. The ruins pictures with the group was in a graveyard and the one with Headington and I are of an Abbey in the north. If there are anymore than those I will just tell you when I go home cuz I can’t remember the others. I walked through old ruins of building so often I can’t remember them all. Here in Tralee there are loads of old ruined castles and things.

Happy Anniversary I hope you got my card. I sent it early hoping you would get it but it could be late so be expecting a card. It makes me happy to have a calendar with all that stuff it helps me not feel so left out of everything. I want another one in December. Just so you know. Even though I will not use it all year long in 2010 I still want it, it is way helpful and nice.

I love you all dearly got to write Jer.

Brady Boo
