Hullo Mama!
espero que se encuentre bien y que todo esta en orden! Me alegra mucho escuchare de usted! le amo mucho y quiero que sepa que is la major mama de este lado de la galazia camino lechoso! le amo!:D No I didn't get transferred. I'm still here in my area! I'm excited! My new companion is Elder Marsden! Oh and just a hint he does NOT know how much time I have in the mission so when I call I need for you all to not mention ANYTHING about me finishing the mission!!! Pretty please! :D Oh and now I am the Secretary of references for the mission! This is going to be interesting! I have a lot of work to do! I'm in charge of receiving references for missionaries and sending them out using a system that the church has. It's really neat! Glad you are getting the cleaning done you want and that it makes you feel good. It's because it is so much easier for the spirit to dwell in clean places! You and Dad make the best team ever! It's so good to hear that Elder Web has done so well on his mission. Tell him hi! I'm glad that Dad cries with you but I have always know that Dad cries. He is just better at hiding it than you. So glad Jeremy has such a great new calling, it doesn't surprise me one bit. They need a spiritual giant like Jeremy to help them out! I'm glad they enjoyed their trip! He sure is doing a lot. Wait he has an AM radio show??? I never would have guessed that he would do something like that. Way to go Troy on going back to school. I'm sure he is super smart by now! That was nice of Meg's to offer to take me to see Bryce if I come see her. I wouldn't go see him anyways. The church doesn't like friends and family to go visit missionaries during there service because it is REALLY distracting and can have a big effect. Meg's doesn't have to bribe me:). I do want to go just let me convince myself . For the flight home I'm going to be using a medication the mission doctor prescribed for the anxiety. So I want to see how I do with that first. WHAT? Bishop White cannot be released!!! He is too good! My week was really good! The best part of my week was Sunday! We had an investigator come to church and he has a baptismal date for May 30. He is doing great and is really sincere! Our other investigators are well! President and Sister Jordan are from Fresno California. I haven't heard from BYU yet but I applied for the winter semester in January so I have time. Thank you for always reminding me to be happy Mom! I love you so much! My new companion is Elder Marsden from Ogden Utah! He is really great and I am really happy to be with him! We are going to have a great change! I love you more than all the degrees of heat that have been over here. Have the best week ever and do something different!

Buenas tardes papa
le amo mucho! pues yo me quede aqui en mi area! pero hay un cambio en responsabilidades. ahora yo voy a ser el Nuevo seretario do referencias y mi Nuevo companero va a ser el secretario de salud! My new companion is Elder Marsden! He is from Ogden!! He is super cool and awesome and we are getting along really well! We are going to have a really great change together! I am now in charge of all the missions references haha. I've got a lot of work to do! Ok so I need to know when I can call you guys on Mothers day. The soonest I can would be at 3 because I have church in the morning until 2. So I think that would be 2 your time but I'm not sure. It's either 2 or 3 there. But let me know if that's ok that I call at 3 my time! I had to pull money out because I had to buy medication. I just got a little sick with a throat infection but it is nothing bad. I've been to the doctor and it's gotten a lot better and all is well! Yes I am taking care of myself! I am so glad that Elder Web had such a good experience on his mission. So excited for the Phillips getting to go to Rome on a mission. Tell them good luck and I wish them the best! I'm also excited for Brother and Sister Glaus to be able to go on a mission. Tell Ray to get his papers done as soon as he can. Brother and Sister Koga are always in my prayers. No I still haven't heard anything from BYU. I'm really hoping that they accept me. It will be a miracle if they do! I really want to go there. Well I do need some information from you and Mom but I don't want to ask for it by email. I thought I would do it through President Jordan. Hey guess what? I was on family search last week and I found the line that goes back to Adam! I've got it marked and I can find it now. It goes back through Moms side. It's really cool. I was showing the other Elders I work with and they were really excited! I'm really excited to do family history work when I get back! Well we are definitely having a lot of contacts and there are a lot of future prospects. So this week we will see how it goes. We do have one investigator named Roberto that has a baptismal date! So keep him in your prayers and Rodrigo, Alicia, and Ancelma too! They are the ones who can be baptized this change! I do keep trying and I will never stop! I really hope that Heavenly Father is pleased with my work! I will definitely do all I can to beat Satan. I'm just still trying to figure out what purposes Heavenly Father has for me and what He wants me to do. I remember that in almost all my blessings that you gave me you kept mentioning a great work that Heavenly Father has for me to do. I would really like to figure out what that work is. Thanks so much Dad! I love you and miss you! We had a great experience yesterday as we contacted a man cleaning his motorcycle. We started to talk about families and we really felt the spirit and he did too! He accepted us to come back and we are going to see him today! I love you a lot! Have a great week!

Hey Dad
That is so cool that Elder Anderson went to visit the stake! They traveled far to attend. President Laws has been quite a long time. Mom told me about what he said and it was really good and true. The temples are so important!!!! I can't wait to be able to go with you and Mom! I'm so glad to hear that Brother Koga is feeling better. I can't even imagine how Geri must feel. Just tell her I love her and I know that she is strong and can do anything! Woah! Way to go Bryce, he is going to be a great soccer player. I'm so glad that you and Mom went to the temple. Go every week if you can. Heather and Zac are huge examples of how to press forward in spite of what life throws at you. It was a great experience going with President Jordan. He is really interested in learning more and reading the Book of Mormon. But as of right now he is not very interested in being baptized because we think he is a little afraid for what others will say but with time he will change. I have been really blessed to have such testimony building experiences! It's my plan to keep trying and I will do all I can for all my life. You and Mom are such a great team! Thanks so much for the advice Dad. What is your favorite scripture and why??? Also why is prayer important for you? I love you!

usted es mi favorita mama!
espero que esta semana le fue muy bien! I bet it was really strange having the Koga's gone. But keep in touch with them through facebook. Tell Geri she is awesome and she is strong! Tell her also I love her and that all will be well. I will definitely keep them in my prayers! They were awesome neighbors and huge examples! Glad you and Dad went to the temple, you two are such examples to me. Thanks so much. Keep up the great work and enjoy every moment of it. I'm so proud of Zac and that him and Heather went to the temple together. They have done so good. I love going to the temple.. Each time I go I can feel a huge difference. It really helps us to keep an eternal perspective on things and it is mandatory! There are so many people who don't see Christ as He truly is. Many people don't even see the need for a church anymore. We have to be stronger then ever before because we are getting very close to the second coming and satan is trying harder than ever before. Whatever happens, we can not lose sight of the ultimate goal. Just like when Peter was walking on top of the water and he started to fear and doubt when he focused on the water and wind and lost sight of Christ. If we lose sight of our end goal and fear and doubt we will being to drown so we must stand firm and not be distracted! Glad you went out with the Sister missionaries, you are an outstanding missionary. You are going to be blessed for that. Thanks for your example. I love you! My week was really good! I had a pretty neat experience! On Monday when we were heading home for the day we saw one sister with her little daughter and we decided to contact her and invite her. What a great decision that was. She commented to us a little how she has had a hard life and has been looking for help and change. She wants to become closer to God and that's when we testified of the Gospel and it's marvelous power to cause change! As we talked with her a light seemed to spark in her eyes and she had hope of a better life! We visited her during the week and now she has a baptismal date and is progressing! She came to a ward activity that we had on Saturday and loved it. She also came on Sunday and loved it as well! She is a chosen person. We had a big activity on Saturday about the plan of salvation and it was really great and I think that it really changed the attitude of the ward. In gospel principles on Sunday we had to use 2 rooms because there were so many people! The bigger part were non members! President Jordan is a great teacher. I'm so glad and grateful to have him as a mission President! I love him and Sister Jordan! I have always admired how Dad NEVER complains about anything and is so humble. I love my Dad! Thanks so much Mom! I did get a package but it was a small one from the youth in the ward. I have no idea if I'll get transferred or not! I think so but I will do the Lord's will. Love you more than all the steps I have walked this week!
Love you best!

Hola Mama
que tal? como esta??? le quiero mucho Mom you are so skinny! That's so aawesome to see you going down the slide with the kids haha. I bet you can run faster than me. Thank you for all the wonderful thoughts even though I can't read them:D You are doing great at getting things done on time. I don't know how you manage to do so much. I'm praying that I will be able to see Brother Koga one last time! I really want to see him as well! Tell Geri that all will be well and that she is awesome. Congrats to Bryce! Heather and Zac are looking good. Just like the good old times. I'm glad you enjoyed yourself. You are such a good teacher. I bet that meant a lot to Bryce that you gave a talk. You sure are the most super active grandma I've ever seen. You are awesome. My week was super great! President Jordan asked me to accompany him to a lesson this week so I was his companion for a little while. It was so cool! I had a really great experience as well. We were going to check the address of a contact we had and while we were going I saw a man selling things out of his house. So I went and contacted him. It was awesome because I found out that his wife has been inactive for almost 30 years and they were happy to receive us! We had an activity with the ward where we made cupcakes and we went and passed them out to people to invite them to an activity on Saturday. We took some to this man I contacted and they were thrilled. When we taught him later I felt the spirit so strong as I testified to him about Joseph Smith and I felt like the spirit entered and filled me and gave me added support and strength! It was a great experience! Tell my Brothers and Sisters I love and support them 200 percent. Things went great in the office. Our giant printer ran out of toner so we had to run to a printing store and buy some so that was great. I'm so proud of myself because I did a lot of contacting! I'm really pushing myself to get out of my comfort zone and talk to people! Thanks for the package. My next transfer is April 27. For the most part we reached our goal. Thanks a bunch Mom. I love you more than all the contacts I did this week! Have a great week and take care of Dad. I love you!

Buenas tardes papa!
le amo mucho! que bien que su bautismo fue excelente! me da mucho gusto que usted y mama pudieron asistir! gracias por todo que ha hecho por mi papa! I'm sure that the drive to Utah isn't very fun but that's great that you and Mom have time to talk. All the men in our family are decent cooks, seems to run in the family. I had forgotten about the bread. It's so good, save me some! I have been praying for Brother Koga and Craig, all will be well. I'm really sad to see the Koga's go. If you can tell them I love them and I'll see them again. The work is going really well here. We had a whole lot of contacts this week! I'm really proud to say that I pushed myself a lot to get out of my comfort zone and talk to more people! That is something I will keep doing. We had some really cool experiences this week! It's really true that if you want to baptize more people you are going to talk with more people! From talking to more people there were a lot who turned into future investigators! There was one lady we contacted and honestly I thought she was going to straight out reject us but I felt I should invite her to meet with us and she readily agreed! We had talked to her about family history work and it interested her! So it's always important to listen to the spirit! I also had a way awesome experience! I was President Jordan's companion for a lesson! He had to go to talk to the owner of some sister's house about some maintenance issues and he was also going to teach him because the owner had looked to him for help with some rough situations. So President Jordan invited me to go with him and help him teach! My companion stayed in the offices doing his work. It was super great! I really learned a lot from President Jordan! He teaches very smoothly and fluid. He is a great man! Thank you so much for your prayers Dad! I really do love missionary work and I have no plans to stop once I'm home! Thanks so much. I'm still waiting for a response from BYU. I check every week so when I know something I will let you know. I love you so much Dad! Have a fantastic week! Be sure to do scripture study and prayer with Mom! Love you lots!

Hola mama
le amo mucho! espero que su semana fue fantastic como la mia! This week we had a zone conference with President Jordan and it was really inspiring! I left that meeting really excited and happy! We have a crazy goal this week to contact 20 people each day and so far we are doing really good. I've seen a huge difference because from just the 20 that we had yesterday we now have about 5 future investigators and they all have set appointments! I'm super excited! Conference was really great. I really loved how a lot of the talks were focused on the family! It was a lot of great insight! It was also fun to listen to the talks in Spanish. I could understand more or less when the one general authority spoke in Portuguese . Yes when Elder Bednar talked about fear I felt like he was talking directly to me! It's really true that we can and should use the Atonement to overcome everything! I also liked the talk about divine grace. That's a really good idea going back to study them will allow you to catch things that you maybe missed! I watched conference in my church building and it was in Spanish. I understood it just like it was English. For Easter we spent the day proselyting and sharing the special message of Christ's resurrection! It was really great! Please tell Brother Koga that I love him and that he is such a huge example to me! Tell him to hang in there and all will be well. I'm really sad they are moving. It's amazing how Craig and Brother Koga never complain. The truly are long suffering and patient! Tell Craig I love him. Have fun in Utah. It's great they are going to build new temples. I'm so excited! My week was super great! We have been getting better every week and it's so wonderful to see how the Lord is blessing us continually! I'm definitely not perfect in it and I need to learn to listen to the spirit better or create an atmosphere where I can hear better. Reflecting back on conference and on the Savior I'm so grateful he did what he did so now I can change and make it back to live with him and Heavenly Father! Really what matters most in this life is Heavenly Father and doing what He wants and that is what I want to do! I want to please Heavenly Father and be a good son. We went to the temple today and it was peaceful! I really felt like a burden was lifted! I'm glad we are an eternal family! You and Dad are just like to young hooligan love birds. I'm glad to see you two so happy together! You guys are such role models and I love you! You have accomplished so much and you both have lost a ton of weight. No worries Mom we will always be young. My companion is doing great! I think the best part of my week was the zone conference because it really helped to lift my spirits and I learned a lot! No worries I always smile when I think of you two! I will keep the Spanish language forever. I'm so glad I can speak it! I love you more than all the fish we have eaten these past 4 days! That is a lot because during the holy week here all they eat is fish!
Love you best!

Hola Papa!
le amo bastante! como le fue ensu semana?? espero que disfruto el dia de la Pascua! Dad way to go loosing weight! You are doing awesome! Yes I saw conference and the general authorities who spoke in Spanish haha. It was really great and it flew by. I really love how they are incorporating the languages into general conference! That is great that you and Mom study together. I understand trying to stay awake in conference, I think there was one I accidentally fell asleep during. For Easter I watched conference and after proselyted the whole day about the message of the resurrection of Christ! It was really great! We contacted a lot of people. Well dinner no but lunch yes. Here the members feed us lunch instead of dinner. We have been eating sea food this whole week. So glad you all got together for Easter dinner and then played games. Our investigators are doing great! We have a lot of new ones that look promising and we are excited to see what happens with them! Thanks for your advise and great example. So glad Craig is doing better, tell him I love him and Kim and Aliya too. Tell Troy's kids as well, tell everyone haha. Tell Brother Koga not to give up and that all will be well in the end. The Lord will watch over him and I know that he will be alright. They really are one of the greatest families I have ever met! I love them so much. I hope to see him one last time. I miss and love him! Ok Dad thanks for your counsel. Thank you for being such a great example to me and for supporting me! I love you! Thank you for helping me to stay focused! Please have a great week Dad and just have fun! You are such a great Dad and you have done miracles in my life and so many more. This week really was great for me! We have a goal to contact 20 people each day and so far all is going well. I'm so excited for this week and to be working in the Lord's vineyard! Keep being awesome. Love you more than all the fish I have eaten this week!

I miss and love him! Ok Dad thanks for your counsel. Thank you for being such a great example to me and for supporting me! I love you! Thank you for helping me to stay focused! Please have a great week Dad and just have fun! You are such a great Dad and you have done miracles in my life and so many more. This week really was great for me! We have a goal to contact 20 people each day and so far all is going well. I'm so excited for this week and to be working in the Lord's vineyard! Keep being awesome. Love you more than all the fish I have eaten this week!

Happy happy Monday Mother!
I love you and miss you lots! You are a great Mom and the best! I'm glad Dad was able to get my school stuff sent to BYU. Thank you so much. You have a real gift in your sewing, keep it up. Your sewing is so cool. What you can do for an object lesson at Bryce's baptism is take a blind fold and tie it around his eyes. Tell him to try and get to a certain point in the room or find a certain object without helping him. Then what you can do is do it again but this time take him by the hand and guide him to the point he needs to get to. Then you can relate this to the Holy Ghost by explaining how He acts as a guide for us to help us get to Heavenly Father when we can't see the way. He can also help us avoid obstacles that we can't always see. You will give a great talk Mom.
My week was really good. We had some great experiences! On Sunday we had 2 spiritual experiences. First we went to teach a less active and we found she was passing through a really hard trial and she doesn't feel like she qualifies for forgiveness but we taught her about the atonement and repentance and the sacrament and it was very powerful. She thanked us afterwards for having come. Then later that night we went and taught a member family and during the lesson I felt impressed to teach them about an effective way to set goals and plans and a vision of what we want to become that President Jordan had showed us. At the end of the lesson the Grandma of the family was crying and she thanked us so much for having shared that with her because for the last few days she had been praying really hard to Heavenly Father to help her out of depression she was in and to find a way to get more active and doing things in general and she told us that this was the answer to her prayers. It really meant a lot to me because we had no idea and I wasn't even sure if the lesson would turn out good but it did. I realized even more just how well Heavenly Father knows his children and what they need. He does answer prayers. I know you want me to fly to Germany but let me fly home first. Being on a mission has done miracles for me but it hasn't taken away my fear of airplanes. Craig is in my prayers. I know all will be well. We need to share the gospel with everyone. Sister Jordan is great. I helped her pack her things in the mission home on Friday because they are also leaving in June. I'm their last generation to send home. No I haven't gotten any packages yet but I will no worries. Thanks so much Mom. I love you more than all the pass a long cards that I will give out this week! I love you lots!

Hey Dad!
I love you! Thank you so much for all you do for me. You are the best Dad ever! Were you able to get my SAT scores sent as well? It sounds like it's really hot there. It's started warming up a lot here too. That would be nice if we could just skip summer and go straight to fall. I would love that. I'm sure Mom is telling everyone in the whole world when I will be home. But that's just because I have an awesome Mom! Wow I'll get back 4 days after Jordan. That's crazy! I think I will do my talk in Spanish, there should be enough people in the ward by now that speak Spanish so it shouldn't be too bad! :D I'm sure everyone is going to get a laugh out of how bad my English is haha. Yes that's right it's time to send more castlegate missionaries out.
My companion is doing a lot better. He has been using orthopedic insoles to help realign his knees. His knees haven't been hurting nearly as much just his feet because of the insoles. I think if I had to spend more time inside I would go crazy! I'd much rather be outside working! Missionary work is a lot of fun. Yes he can move now and we have been working normally so all should be well. Thank you for your prayers! Well we do have AC but it's broken so we are in the process of fixing it right now. The good thing is that the mission covers that. Well it's pretty hot right now so there isn't much desire for hot water haha. Well this week we were able to have a lot of great experiences! One day we were in the limits of our area looking for a less active member from the ward directory and we stopped to ask for directions and when we did this guy came running towards us and asked us if we were looking for him. So my companion and I looked at each other a little weird but we said yes and started teaching him. So long story short he is a new investigator and he has a baptismal date! It's interesting how Heavenly Father puts people in our paths. We also had one of our investigators come to church this week and she stayed for all 3 hours and loved it. Thank you so much Dad! I think they are pleased as well. I'm going to do all I can. Don't worry I'm writing everything down. There's a reason I've asked for so many journals. I've got like 5 completed! Love you lots Dad. Thanks for everything.

That's a great surprise, Dad decorating the inside of the house and Troy, Kim and the kids decorating the outside for your birthday. Dad is becoming quite a chef. That was so nice of him to do that for you. He really loves you. He is a good Dad and husband. Lots of singing, I'm singing too just through an email haha. I'm so glad everyone called you Mom. You are so great. Know worries I will be there for the next birthday. Meghan and Jeremy are having a lot of adventures. I hope they are enjoying it. Thank you guys for helping me with school.

I haven't heard anything out of Tanner, how is he? I've been reading the Book of Mormon in Spanish and I just read the part you read this week. I really like that part. I learned a lot from it. They were very humble and long suffering as they passed through their afflictions and it shows me that that is how we should be in the midst of our afflictions! I'm very happy and very well! Thanks Mom! I love you Mom! Thanks so much for your prayers and support! I love you more than all the stack of paper I've had to fill out while in the offices.

Hey Dad!
I love you and miss you! Thanks for doing all you did for Mom's birthday. Yes Mom never gets any older she just gets younger. I know she loved all you did. You are really creative and awesome! I love you! That's so great everyone called and was talking to her! I bet it really made her day! I will keep the Koga's in my prayers. Thank you so much for taking care of my school stuff. I've had my release date since I've started. I've also got my flight plans and everything that I will be sending you. I'm sure that when Mom sees them she will start to cry! I will be home on June 8th at approximately 12:30pm. Well my companion has had some knee problems and we haven't been able to leave the house much because he has had to rest. We have an appointment in the hospital today at 5. So we haven't been able to do much work but when we had the chance we were able to get a lot done! We had 2 investigators come to church on Sunday and they are able to get baptized in April! I'm way excited! We did a lot of contacting this week and were able to find various new investigators! We were talking with one who has a friend who is a member and as we were explaining the gospel to her it was super clear and she asked us when we would be coming by to teach her! I was really happy to be able to find the people we did! The Lord does put others in our path so we can help them! It is starting to get hot here. It's really humid in the house. Thank you so much Dad for you support and words. I love you and I'm grateful for you example in my life. Enjoy your week and have fun. Do something fun for yourself. You have done so much for others and now do something fun for yourself. I love you so much Dad. I had a really good experience with prayer this week. Most times when we pray we just get down and start talking and we finish without having accomplished much. But I went to pray one day and I remember taking the time to meditate and prepare myself and it made such a difference. I was truly able to pour my soul out to Heavenly Father and the spirit I felt was so strong! I know that Heavenly Father listens to and answers prayers but I also know that if we prepare ourselves for the prayer our experience will be much more edifying! Love you so much!

Hello Mum!
Love you bunches and bunches! I can imagine your reaction when Sister Jordan called. Yes everything is alright Mother. I just thought it would be better to pass my social security number that way than by email. Sister Jordan is super awesome and we get along very well. You cleaned my room! Just let me know if you are going to get rid of anything haha. You have a lot of great ideas. Don't see these things so much as tasks that have to be done but see it as a great chance to spend time with Dad. Even tedious house tasks like that can be fun when you work together! Enjoy every minute of it. Glad you and Dad are studying the sacrament. I've really seen a difference as I've prepared for the sacrament and as I focus on Christ's atonement! You can feel the spirit so much stronger! Just look at it like you two are eternally dating. Keep doing things together and have fun. I've really seen a difference in you and Dad as well. You two are such great examples to me! Thanks for all you teach me. Yes Mom I do know how you like happy endings. So glad you gave up soda and that you and Dad are walking together. Slow down Mom, your taking bets on when I will get married! What are they thinking? Oh wow Lauren will be dating. Hey maybe we can form a group date when I get back. That would be interesting.
We were able to find new people to teach and right now we are in the process of helping them progress. Yesterday I was with another Elder here in my area and we were looking for less active members from the list of members and when we contacted a house we weren't able to find the person we were looking for but we did find a new investigator! He seems interested and we have another appointment with him! That's a great idea to look for someone to share the gospel with. Pray about it. If you can't find someone right now the Lord will put someone in your path! Oh Mom there is SO much I need to do better! I've got a lot of work ahead of me. I'm just trying my best and I want to be better. We just had transfers and we stay the same! Craig is awesome! Tell him I love him! Thank you so much for being my super duper Mother! I love you more than all the paper work I have to fill out in the offices!

Hey Dad!
I love you and hope all is well! Sorry I couldn't respond yesterday! We had our P day suddenly changed from yesterday to today because we had to go pick up a trainer and a new missionary that just got here. Nothing happened in these transfers, my companion and I are the same! Yes I did get my social security number all right! Thanks so much for doing that. I would have asked by email but I didn't think that it was a good idea to pass it by email. I'm filling out my application to BYU today so lets see how that goes. Tell Brother Koga to get better! I am keeping them in my prayers. My week was interesting. Let me just say that contacting can be very interesting because you never know who you will meet! One thing I've learned is that the Lord does prepare his children to receive the gospel. We found one man this week who was in the U.S. military and he had had some friends that were members of the church and right now we are teaching him! He said that he is really interested in learning! We also had some investigators come to a baptism that the sisters in our ward had last week! They really liked it and felt the spirit! Things are still going a bit slow but they are picking up! More than anything I just keep on trying. President Jordan told me something really important. He said that it doesn't matter if you try and fail and try and fail and try and fail again. It matters much more if you try and fail and fail to try again. So that's what I do. I may fail a lot but I just keep on trying and doing my best. You and Mom are full of great ideas. Keep putting those ideas in practice. I'm sure that you two will learn a lot. I've had countless experiences like that when I read the scriptures and the problems just seem to go away and be so burdensome! Whenever you find yourself in a hard situation just read the scriptures! It always helps! It does get harder but I'm giving it my all to stay focused. What helped you to stay focused until the end??? Ask Troy too so I can know. Thanks so much Dad! I love you and miss you as well! Have a great week Dad. Congrats for the weight lost. You are doing so good and I'm proud of you! Love you lots and keep being such a great example to me!

My dear Mother!
My week was great! We were able to have a lot of great experiences! There was one day that was pretty hard this week and we weren't finding anything and I was a little down but as we went to ask a lady for directions Heavenly Father blessed us! We started talking to her and at first I thought she was going to reject us like others had but as we talked with her she showed interest and said she wants to come to church! She wants us to visit her as well! It was really uplifting to have Heavenly Father give us that experience! Mom glad your walking, I walk everyday too. We do it together haha. Dad works so hard, he needs to rest. So proud of Craig and the positive attitude he has! So glad Kim Cammack is teaching again. That doesn't surprise me one bit, all the kids love her. She is great with kids. Know worries Mom I'll be happy to do the lawn mowing when I get back! Happy early Birthday Mommy! Thanks for the quote Mom. That is really true and I'm going to apply it here in my life in the mission! My week was really good! We had several contacts like the one I just told you! Contacting people has gotten so easy here. I just need to find the people who are ready to listen! Mom I have a question for you. How do you think I could focus on the future and less on the past? What should I do to accomplish that? Well I'm still working in the offices like normal. I schedule all the English exams for the Latin American missionaries so that's all done. Tomorrow when I go in I'm going to be helping my companion send out all the references for the mission. The people we are teaching are doing good! They are just struggling in coming to church. Glad you made Ty a pillow case to match mine. I will give President a call and get the application to BYU filled out. The whipped cream in the picture was a gift from Sister Jordan and it was gone in a matter of minutes haha! Have a great week Mom! I love you and miss you so much! Take care of Dad and help him to keep losing weight. Keep being the most awesome Mom ever! I love you more than all the Mothers I have seen here in the mission!

Tomorrow when I go in I'm going to be helping my companion send out all the references for the mission. The people we are teaching are doing good! They are just struggling in coming to church. Glad you made Ty a pillow case to match mine. I will give President a call and get the application to BYU filled out. The whipped cream in the picture was a gift from Sister Jordan and it was gone in a matter of minutes haha! Have a great week Mom! I love you and miss you so much! Take care of Dad and help him to keep losing weight. Keep being the most awesome Mom ever! I love you more than all the Mothers I have seen here in the mission!

Hola Papa!
le amo mucho! mi semana fue muy bien y tuvimos algunas experiencias muy geniales! Hey Dad love you! I'm so excited for Ty, he is going to do great in Argentina. The Lady we tried to teach last week with the stroller never answered the door each time we went to visit her. Oh well I guess that happens sometimes, maybe she's just not ready yet. We were able to find some people this last week. Well let me explain, we are finding people everyday. The only things is getting them to accept us to visit them. We are progressing though. One of our investigators that has been progressing gave us a really great reference this week! Apparently she had been sharing what she had been learning with her sister. Her sister and her husband got interested and wanted to talk to us! They have a lot of great questions and are really sincere! So we are able to see Heavenly Father help us! They accepted to be baptized as well. We just are trying to help them come to church now. One thing that I have seen is that it is better to be up front and direct with the people because that way we don't loose so much time and we can see who really has a desire. Contacting people can be really interesting, you never know who you are going to talk to! I would like to do a little more reaping than planting haha. But if all Heavenly Father wants me to do is plant then that is what I will do! I just hope I can feel that at the end of my mission. I'm going to work my hardest!
Craig is doing so good! Tell him he is awesome! Tell Brother Koga that he is awesome as well and that I love him and Craig! I have been keeping them both in my prayers. I know they will both be ok and all will be well! Thank you so much Dad! I love you and miss you! Hey Dad instead of complaining about things what can I do to find solutions? I love you a lot Dad! Have a great week and take care of Mom! Love you!

Hullo Mum!
Love you more than a whole ton of snickers! How was your week? I hope it went well! I got to go through the temple on Saturday with one of my converts! It was so cool! I'm sending pictures today. It was so awesome to be able to go through with her. I was thinking about missionary work while there and as I saw the result of what I had done I really felt so happy and peaceful knowing I had helped someone get to the temple. The satisfying feeling is huge!
Although I'm absolutely positive that know one will ever love me as much as you do, that can't be beat! My smile is still as big as ever! The investigators are great. They really feel the spirit and love the gospel! That is cool, I'm glad you and Dad are doing things together. You guys are the best. I hope you go and see Meet the Mormons. You will love it. It will make you laugh and feel the spirit. You should invite nonmembers as well. Just so they can get to know us better. I can't believe your running now, way to go Mom! I am so proud of all you have been able to do. Keep it up Mom. Your doing great, you'll be way faster than me haha. We will have to have a walking race when I get back and see who wins. I can't believe Jordan and Bryce were together. That is so unfair. I don't even want to imagine the crazy things they are doing. I can see a LOT of improvements I need to make. I just want to be able to say and feel at the end of my mission I had given my all to Heavenly Father. That feeling of peace that comes from knowing that is what I want at the end. More than anything I just want to know that He is happy with my sacrifice. I'm so grateful for you and Dad! You guys are the best ever! I think I'll be transferred one more time because after these next transfers I still have one more. I love you more than all love that missionary moms have for their missionaries in all the world! Thanks so much Mom.

Hey Dad!
I love you and miss you! I hope all is going well. This last week was interesting. We haven't had a whole lot of progress but things are getting better! We had a really interesting contact this week! We saw a lady who was pushing a stroller with her daughter and just from seeing how she acted with her daughter we could really tell that she was family oriented so we decided to contact her! We talked to her and explained the Book of Mormon and talked about the blessings we receive as a family by living the gospel! She readily agreed to listen to us and we have an appointment with her tomorrow! I'm so grateful I can be on a mission and learn all that I have learned! Being here has really taught me a lot and has helped me get on the right path! I know that the mission has changed my life forever and I'm so grateful for all that Heavenly Father has done for me! Thanks for sending the pictures. It looked great. Don't remind me about coming home, I want to make the most of the time I have left haha. The end will come soon enough but there is so much I need to change and learn still. Secretary work is going great! I helped cook in the mission home on Friday for 40 hungry Zone leaders. I also managed to drop and break one of Sister Jordan's glass bowls while I was drying dishes so that was interesting. The good thing was that she wasn't even upset, she just laughed. Tomorrow we go in and I'm going to start scheduling English exams for the Latin Americans leaving this change. Well we are finding a ton of people, the only thing is that we need more people who are really interested. But they will come! I think I'll be transferred one more time but who knows what will happen. I'm glad you like my emails. Your letters have really helped me too. Thanks so much Dad! I love you! Take care of yourself! Have a great week and do something fun with Mom.

Love you Mom!
espero que este bien! My week was a bit up and down. We had a lot going on this week. So I wasn't able to do as much work in my area as I would have liked but it was still good! As of right now we are struggling a bit to find investigators that are progressing but we are improving. We have a cold front coming in. If you do end up sending another package could you remember triple A batteries please. They are really expensive here. Tell Jeremy I said Happy Birthday! So glad he get's to go with Tays to his wrestling matches. Like father like son. Way to go Tays. Thanks Mom, I love you too. Heavenly Father is so merciful, He puts me in awe. We are so imperfect and full of errors but He still loves us! I know He is real and lives! I also know that He loves each and every one of us! Thanks Mom but your the best I can't occupy a space that's already filled. Love you more than all the steps walked by missionaries all over the world! Love you so much Mom! Have a super great week and stay positive! All will be well. Love you bunches!

Buenas tardes papa!
le amo mucho! Hope all has been going well. My week was good! We had a bit of work to do in the offices but I've come up with some ingenious ideas to make my work a lot easier and faster and to help out future secretaries. Sister Jordan came by the offices too and gave us a couple pounds of barbecue pork and stuff to make sandwiches. It was great! First American food I've eaten in awhile haha. Yes it's been a little cold here too. Right now there's a cold front coming in so we will see what happen. I'm pretty use to the heat. We are still teaching her and she is progressing and we are really excited. Well in the offices I've been keeping up on all my work and on all the projects that Sister Jordan gives me haha. It's actually really fun to be able to go in and help out. Now to answer your questions:
1. I speak hablo espanol
2. My favorite scripture is Psalms 82:6 I really love this scripture because it helps me to remember my potential as a child of God and it shows me what I can become. It also shows me how much Heavenly Father loves me and wants me to live with Him again. This scripture helps me remember that nothing is impossible I can do so much more than I believe.
3. Haha ok that is a difficult one. My favorite companion would have to be Elder Flores and he is my favorite because we both worked so hard together and in unison. We were there for each other in difficult moments and we were able to enjoy both the good and the bad experiences. He taught me how to work well together with someone and how to truly enjoy the mission.
4. To get around we use mainly A. our legs haha B. a taxi or a bus
5. The most unique thing I have eaten on my mission would have to be cow utter.
6. The best way to find investigators is by asking members for references of their friends and acquaintances. It is also my favorite and I also really like contacting people in the street!
7. My favorite thing to do on P-day is going shopping and cleaning and that's not a lie!
8. Well that number varies every week and depends on the missionary and the members. But it's in the range of 10-20 for both members and investigators
9. I've been able to go to the Tampico Mexico Temple
10. My mission home is in Tampico and I'm like 20 or so minutes away from it.
I love you Dad! We saw the new Meet The Mormons movie and it was great! You need to see it! We also had interviews with President and those were great too! He really is inspired because I asked him for some council on contacting and I put it in practice this week and it works! We all should do what our leaders tell us to do. I actually thought it would be cool to be the architect who designs the temples. I'm not sure what to do but that's what I want to do. I'm not coming home and just going to let all I've learned stop there. I expect to keep progressing and it's something I want to do. A lot of missionaries don't continue reading and studying and praying when they get back but I don't want to be like that. I want to keep doing all that I'm doing now and more. I can't wait to talk more because I have a lot of questions! Love you lots Dad!

Hi Sister Mother of an Elder Secretary!
That was a mouthful. Love you Mom and hope that all is well. I'm doing really great! This week was really good. I'm so happy because we had 3 investigators come to church and they are progressing to be baptized! Two of them are references from some eternal investigators we have and the other is a Sister we found by contacting this week. The Lord really is helping us to progress. Since I've gotten here, every day we have been asking the Lord to put someone in our path who would progress and accept a baptismal date and come to church on Sunday. Even though we didn't have new investigators every day we were able to see that the Lord put someone in our path each week that came to church and is progressing. He is helping us to achieve our goal of baptizing at least one person every week. I know that we are going to get there! Ok so all the missionaries in the mission that don't speak English as a native language have the opportunity to take an English exam at the end of their mission to become a certified English speaker. So about a couple week before the change ends I set up all the exams and get them ready to take their tests. Well I sure try to be a big help. It's really a great opportunity that I have to be able to help. I'm glad Craig's cancer is stag 3. I will keep them all in my prayers! Tell Craig I love him and that he is awesome! Also Kim and Aliya. One thing that has helped me is to have an eternal perspective. We can get so focused and zoned in on the here and now and a lot of times that's not too good because we are limiting ourselves and what we can become. Keep an eternal perspective and it will help you cope with things better and you will be able to be a lot happier! It's really helped me! Here's the answers to your questions for Youth Conference:
1. I prepared to go on a mission by doing the basics, reading my scriptures, praying, going to church and attending the temple. I also worked on strengthening my relationship with Heavenly Father even more because that is the most important thing. You can't fully prepare for everything on the mission but the most important thing to have before going out is to be converted to Christ and our Father in Heaven and continually going through that process of conversion because it lasts a lifetime.
2. The reason I'm here on my mission is simply because I love my Heavenly Father. I feel that after all the Savior and Father have done for me I want to give something back in return. I'm by no means the best missionary, but I'm here trying because I love Heavenly Father and I want to please him.
3. Well here in Mexico there are a lot of traditions for example: With almost every meal here they eat corn tortillas. Also playing soccer is really big here. Every year at around the 6 of January they celebrate the day of the Magi. Which is when the wise men got to Christ. They have a huge pastry shaped like a big donut and it has plastic dolls inside and if in your piece you get one of the dolls then you have to bring tamales to everyone on February 2. In the North part of Mexico every Saturday and Sunday they eat grilled steak. There is also a really big tradition in one of my areas, in the Southern part of Mexico there is an event called Xantolo. It's pronounced chan-toe-low. It's a day when they believe the spirits of their dead ancestors are roaming the earth and they dress up in costumes and masks so that the spirits get confused and don't recognize them. They also have dances they do as well.
4. The hardest thing for me to get use to has been not having hot water haha especially in the winter.
5. Well I have eaten a lot of strange things, to name a few, cow utter, pig foot, cow tail, cow intestine, cow stomach, pig skin, chicken skin, just to name a few.
6. The cities I have served in are: Tampico, Tempoal, Mante, Madero and Victoria
7. The biggest challenge I have faced is contacting people. It's always hard to reach out but as I have trusted in the Lord my fear has gone away.
8. The best memory that I have of one of my areas is the baptism of one of the families in Mante. We worked so hard to help them progress and the road was difficult but in the end watching them be baptized made it all worth it in the end.
9. The thing I love most about the mission is doing the best I can to please my Father in Heaven and how He has helped me to progress and prepare for the rest of my life.
10. I know that this church is true and I love my Heavenly Father more than anything. He is the reason I am here and He is the reason I do what I do. I know that all things are possible when He is by our side and I know that He loves each and everyone of us. I know that the Book of Mormon is true and I love reading it's pages. I'm filled with peace and comfort each time I read it. I know that serving a mission is a must and that it prepares us for all that Heavenly Father has in store. I love this work and I love my Savior. I know that Christ suffered for me and can help me come to the presence of the Father again. He is my brother and I have felt his mercy and grace. I know that in this life we need to focus on Christ and the Father and that they are all that matters. I know that they live. In the name of Jesus Christ Amen.
This is such a great idea. Thanks Mom for your email! I love you! Things are going really well here, tell everyone I love them!

Hey Dad!
Love you and miss you! Hope all is going well. We had a really great week this week. One cool experience we had is that on Monday we went to an appointment with a contact we had and when we got there he hadn't remembered and he told us that his wife was really catholic and wouldn't be interested. But the interesting thing was that the wife got home a bit later and she saw us and invited us right in! She was really anxious to talk to us! So we ended up teaching her and she came to church yesterday! Tell Brother and Sister Koga I love them. He is really tough and is such a great example. He is the strongest person I know. Sorry the letter is a bit short this week. I don't have much time. But I love you so much! Well it's really great being able to help Sister Jordan. out. I'm really glad to get the experience and I'm working the best I can. My companion is a bit tired of it because he has been there awhile, but he does great. Yes we have a few senior missionaries but not many. I hope what I'm doing is having an effect on these people. I'm going to be a Great Uncle, that can't happen I'm to young. But I'm happy for Kameron and Heather. Tell Kim I love her and I want to spend some time with her when I get back. Tell her to stay strong. You will be a great Gran Dad. Honestly Dad as I've been thinking and reflecting on my future life I want to live a life centered on serving Christ and my Heavenly Father. My progression will go forward, I don't want to take a step backward when I get home. I will do whatever the Lord asks me to do and I'll do it well! I also feel sad as well and I'm trying to make these last months the best! I'm also excited for the next phase of life as well. We have so much to talk about but not enough time right now. Thank you for your example Dad! I want to be like you! I'm going to work so I can feel that at the end as well. Thank you so much for sharing that with me!!!!! How has your mission helped change and shape your life Dad? I love you!!!! Like Father like son I think I'll be at BYU as well.
Love you Dad!

Hey Dad!
Love you and miss you! Hope all is going well. We had a really great week this week. One cool experience we had is that on Monday we went to an appointment with a contact we had and when we got there he hadn't remembered and he told us that his wife was really catholic and wouldn't be interested. But the interesting thing was that the wife got home a bit later and she saw us and invited us right in! She was really anxious to talk to us! So we ended up teaching her and she came to church yesterday! Tell Brother and Sister Koga I love them. He is really tough and is such a great example. He is the strongest person I know. Sorry the letter is a bit short this week. I don't have much time. But I love you so much! Well it's really great being able to help Sister Jordan. out. I'm really glad to get the experience and I'm working the best I can. My companion is a bit tired of it because he has been there awhile, but he does great.

Hola Mom!
le amo mucho! espero que su semana fue Buena! mi semana fue muy interesante! tuvimos algunas experiencias especiales! pudimos encontrar nuevas personas para ensenar! estamos contactando a muchas personas! Love you Mom! We had a really good week and some great experiences! There is a couple of eternal investigators here that haven't been able to be baptized because they aren't married and the brother can't get divorced yet. But they gave us a reference of some family members of theirs! We got to know them at a ward family night and they are really interested! We had a lesson last week in the church in the baptismal font room and the spirit was so strong! We put a baptismal date with them and they accepted! They weren't able to come to church but we are going to keep working with them. Their names are Alicia and Rodrigo. Well you know that's a great question Mom. Pretty much my job is to make sure that Sister Jordan doesn't get stressed out too much. Every time a missionary gets sick and has to buy anything medical related I have to fill out an insurance claim form and send it to the company the church uses. I'm also in charge of scheduling English exams for all missionaries that are finishing in this change. I also take care of little projects that Sister Jordan want done. I'm in the office about 4 hours a week on Tuesday and Friday. It's a lot of fun! I love it! We were companions in Mante, he is also the secretary for the references of the mission. Elder Facer went to Tampico. It was a little hard because we got along really well and we were having a lot of success and things were looking really good but all is well because I am doing what the Lord needs me to do! Don't worry so much Mom:D Change is a good thing! If we always do what we have always done then we will always get what we have always gotten. That is a quote from Elder Bednar haha and it's true. I'm glad to hear that you and Kim went to the temple. I'm going to go through the 28th with a convert! Tell Jeremy, Troy, Craig and Zac that I love them and I'm grateful to have them as brothers! Way to go Mom, your doing great! You have got some awesome goals and you are doing fantastic! Something I learned her in the mission to help us accomplish things is this: Vision, Goals, Plans. First we have a vision of what we want to become. Then we establish goals that are like stepping or milestones to get to the vision and then we establish plans for how we will accomplish each goal! Try it out and see if it works! It has for me! Thanks for your letter Mom. I love you more than all the stairs and hills I've climbed in my mission haha!
Love you bestest

Haha very funny Dad!
It's actually fun being a secretary! My job isn't as burdensome as the financial secretary and the secretary to the President. But I still get to work in the offices about 4 hours a week. I'm in there on Tuesday and Friday. It's great because I get to help out Sister Jordan! I fill out insurance claim forms for when someone gets sick and I'm in charge of scheduling English exams for all the missionaries that are leaving in this change. I also help Sister Jordan out with other little projects that she has. Yep that's where the offices are and that's why I'm back because I'm the Health secretary! Yeah I'm sure. I got a good laugh too when I heard. I guess Sister Jordan and I just get along really well hahaha. Well I'm not sure what perks it has but I'm really grateful for the experience. Well I don't go to the mission home, I'm normally in the offices and my companion is the reference secretary of the mission. I'm not sure why they did but it was sad to go because the people there are so great and we were having a lot of success but I know that I'm doing what the Lord wants me to do! Yes they put 2 new Elders there. This week we really augmented the number of contacts we are doing and we will continue to do so. We had an interesting experience too. We were walking in one part of our area and we saw a man who was standing next to his car because it was overheated and so we stopped to talk to him and offer help. As we got talking we were able to find out that he had a lot of friends who were members and he knew a little about the church so we invited him and he is interested in listening! We had various experiences like that this week and it was great! Yes a LOT don't know it. The area here has a lot of potential. Yes service works great! Wow that is definitely true. He is a machine and he never stops. That's Kellston! I'm excited to see them too. They probably won't even recognize me! Yes he is a great companion, he is from Torreon. Thank you so much for your support Dad! I love you more than all the gravy and biscuits in the world! Dad how did you feel when you were nearing the end of your mission? What helped you feel satisfied with all you had done? How did you know that the Lord accepted your sacrifice and work? Love you Pops!

Hello Mum!
So yes I got transferred again! Now I'm in Madero City and I'm the new secretary to the mission presidents wife! Or to Sister Jordan that is. This is going to be fun and interesting! I'll be in the mission office like 4 hours a week working on various things there. But right now I'm not exactly sure what I'll be doing haha, but I'm excited! I loved the Super Bowl, Dad and I always watched it for the commercials haha. But that's great the Patriots won. I'm pretty sure that Brother Cox is very happy right now. I'm doing really good! This week was great! We finished the change off really well and we left the area better than we found it! Elder Facer and I both got pulled out of the area. My week was great though! We contacted a lady at a bus stop and it was so great because we started talking and she asked us if she could be forgiven of her sins so we were like YEAH!!!! We talked about baptism and invited her to be baptized and she accepted a baptismal date! When we went and visited her she had read a little of the Book of Mormon and said that she received an answer and she knew it was true! It's so great to see people like that! Missionary life goes great! I love helping people and I want to work harder than ever! The Lord sure does have the best missionaries! Please tell everyone I love them and hope all is well! Love you Mom! I hope all is well. Thanks for everything! I love you more than all the soccer fans in the world!

Hey Dad!
I love you and I have news! I got transferred! That's not all! I am now in an area called Boulevard in Madero city and I'm with a former companion of mine. Elder Antuna! What's more is that I'm the new secretary to the mission presidents wife haha or to Sister Jordan! Honestly I have absolutely no idea of what that entails. But I will be in the mission offices about 4 hours a week working. This should be fun! That's great the Patriots won, I had a hunch that they were going to win. Yeah I'm pretty sure I heard Brother Cox yelling from here haha. That's good that it was raining. The weather here has been cold and rainy and windy as well. I've been taking good care of myself! The house I'm in now has a boiler and AC but they both need to be repaired haha. Good one Dad, but I've gotten down to record time in the showers! I'm only in there like 2 minutes and I'm done! I've been keeping them in my prayers and will continue to do so! Tell Brother Koga I love him and Craig too! Tell him I hope all goes well! That's great that Jeremy is home. I'm glad that the kids are excited. Sorry I've been bad about judging that. I'm trying to pull out as little as possible. But I shouldn't have to pull out anymore. But I'll be sure to do that Dad thanks. Well everything was going great but they pulled my companion and I out of the area. So now I'm in a new area and I've got a lot of ideas I want to try out so I'm excited! We had some really neat experiences! I was on divisions and we taught an investigator and after told her that we were going to ask her for a reference of one of her friends and when we did she said actually I have a friend who would like to listen. It was so cool because after she told us about her friend someone arrived at her house to buy water and it turned out to be her friend! So we contacted her and taught her and she wants to come to church now! It was great! We are finding lots of people to share the gospel with and we have done a lot of service! We found a lot of investigators this week and had a lot of help from the members! I know that if the members help in the missionary work then we will be able to baptize so much more! I also know that Heavenly Father loves his children and he listens to and answers every single one! Thanks so much Dad for everything! I love you and miss you! Take care of yourself! Love you!

Hola Hermana cammack mi mama!
como esta?? estoy muy bien! mi semana fue excelente y lieno de experiencias! That's awesome, Kellston will be a great singer! That's funny, I'm glad he likes to sing. That will be so great for the kids. I'm so happy for them. Tell Jeremy I love him! I'm sure he does. He will put me to shame and motivate me to out beat him. That's one thing I have to try and do more of is exercise haha. We really don't have like any time and sometimes I'm just dead tired in the morning. But I'll get there just like Jeremy! Maybe just a little slower. Oh wow Mom I can just imagine how much you cried! I'm surprised there wasn't a flash flood warning or the second building of an ark haha. :D Just kidding! Love you Mom! That kid is funny! I taught him everything he knows :D Yes haha I know that very well. I will be emailing him every week so no worries. He will really like that, thanks so much for doing that. I love him too. Mom there are a lot more missionaries more dedicated than I am. I'm trying my hardest to stay focused and I can't say I'm perfect at it because I'm not. I struggle with it as well but I hope my effort is enough for Heavenly Father. I want to leave Everything in the mission. This last bit of time I have is very special to me and I have to fight to stay focused. I want to be the consecrated missionary and carry it with me throughout all my life. It is so important to me that I change here in the mission. A lot of times though it is hard for me to see that I have changed. I just want to take advantage of this time so that Heavenly Father can mold me into what he needs me to be. We had a really good experience this week. A really good investigator we found a couple of weeks ago we lost contact with her and couldn't find her but yesterday we were able to find her again and she is on track and so ready to be baptized! I'm glad Heavenly Father listens to my prayers! Thanks for telling me that Mom! I love you and am so fortunate to have the perfect Mother I do! You are such an example to me. I like to tell our investigators about your conversion to the church so they can have a really good example to look to! Thank you for making the decision to accept the gospel Mom! Thanks Mom! specific prayers work. I know it's hard Mom, it's still hard for me as a missionary, but you will be blessed as you love the Lord and overcome your fears! Focus on your love for Heavenly Father and his children and sharing the gospel will be a lot easier! Ok sounds great Mom. I love you more than all the missionaries in all the world!

Hey Dad!
I love you! espero que este bien! mi semana fue muy Buena y tuvimos muchas experiencias! Well with that lead foot of yours I'm sure you'll never get into the slow lane. I've been doing really good Dad! We had a great week we are just battling right now with the investigators going to church but we are progressing! I had to take some money for the month so that's why I took out money from my card. I'm really proud of Ty! He is going to be an excellent missionary! I'm glad it was spiritual! I'm glad you go to talk to Meg's and the kids. Kellston is going to be a great singer one day. I can't wait to see Jeremy again. Why are they on such high alert on the base? Why is it so dangerous over there? Yes the Lord will protect them! Well this week was interesting haha. I have a testimony that missionary work has to be done with the members. We can contact people all day but a lot of them don't get very far. But when we work through references and the members that people normally get baptized! I have seen the difference! We are still continuing with specific prayers and Heavenly Father always answers our prayers! We have a family of investigators that we met who the guys Uncle was a member and to make a long story short he is really interested! He has read a lot of the Book of Mormon and when we got to the lesson the other day he had a notebook of notes he had taken while reading and he told us he feels good about it and everything seems really good to him. He prayed and told us that for his answer a few scriptures came to mind that where signaling to him that he needs to read and study the Book of Mormon! It is awesome! I love investigators like him. This week has been really good! I really see how my mission is preparing me for life and I know that my mission has changed my life for the better and I wouldn't trade it for anything! The work is going really well here! We are getting better every week! Dad what do you think we can do to have more spiritual experiences with our investigators to help them attend church? What can I do to feel the spirit more? Love you lots Dad!

Buenas tardes mama!
le amo mucho! espero que su semana fue fantastica! Gracias por su carta la agradezco mucho! Well yeah after so much time gone I can see how that could happen. That's ok Mom just let it all out. That's really good you are helping them. Tell them I say hi. Yeah time really does fly fast. My week was super awesome! I had so many experiences that I don't know where to begin! This week we have been focusing on specific prayers and ever morning before we go out we always ask Heavenly Father to put someone in our path who will progress and be baptized and every day we have been doing our part and we have found someone just about every day! The meeting we had with President was really good! I learned a lot. I've really seen how Heavenly Father has helped us in the work. Read Alma 13:24 and Alma 16:16-17 and Jacob 5:70-75. Those are some really good scriptures that tell us what Heavenly Father is doing in his vineyard. We have transfers in like 2 weeks I think. This change is a bit longer because of Christmas so I have a bit of time left. My companion is awesome! He is really great. We are getting along so well and I have learned so much from him! Be sure to tell his Mom that she has one very special son and he is a great friend to me and that I love him too! Our investigators are doing good. We are working on helping them progress right now but all is well. No on p-days we are by ourselves. It's part of the area presidency rules. We aren't allowed to leave our area unless we have permission from president and we don't have activities or anything like that. But it's ok, I like it this way. Yes I did do service! I always look for opportunities to serve and when I see them I act! We helped a lady clean her yard this week and we taught her afterward and we thought she was going to be a new investigator buy funny thing is that she is a member who has been inactive for a lot of time. What's even funnier is that her neighbors are active members and they had no idea. haha It's really neat how Heavenly Father remembers all of his children even though we may lose them sometimes. He remembers who they are and where they are and provides the way for them to be found. Wow how cool, I'm glad Jeremy gets to come home early! Way to go Mom! You are doing so good. You are going to be faster than me when I get back haha. Yes my friends are awesome, I love them all! Yes I hear from Bryce and Josh. But it's off and on with the others. I haven't heard from Ty in awhile. I'm doing good Mom! Thank you for everything! Love you so much Mom! Thanks for your letter! Love you more than all the trees on the mountains here! The entire mountain is green!

Buenas tardes mama!
le amo mucho! espero que su semana fue fantastica! Gracias por su carta la agradezco mucho! Well yeah after so much time gone I can see how that could happen. That's ok Mom just let it all out. That's really good you are helping them. Tell them I say hi. Yeah time really does fly fast. My week was super awesome! I had so many experiences that I don't know where to begin! This week we have been focusing on specific prayers and ever morning before we go out we always ask Heavenly Father to put someone in our path who will progress and be baptized and every day we have been doing our part and we have found someone just about every day! The meeting we had with President was really good! I learned a lot. I've really seen how Heavenly Father has helped us in the work. Read Alma 13:24 and Alma 16:16-17 and Jacob 5:70-75. Those are some really good scriptures that tell us what Heavenly Father is doing in his vineyard. We have transfers in like 2 weeks I think. This change is a bit longer because of Christmas so I have a bit of time left. My companion is awesome! He is really great. We are getting along so well and I have learned so much from him! Be sure to tell his Mom that she has one very special son and he is a great friend to me and that I love him too! Our investigators are doing good. We are working on helping them progress right now but all is well. No on p-days we are by ourselves. It's part of the area presidency rules. We aren't allowed to leave our area unless we have permission from president and we don't have activities or anything like that. But it's ok, I like it this way. Yes I did do service! I always look for opportunities to serve and when I see them I act!

Hey Pops!
I love you so much and I'm so glad you are my Dad! I hope you are doing well! Be sure to take care of yourself! I'm sure Germany was really cold! It's cool you got to go though. They don't have AC???? That doesn't make sense. Well hey that's a good thing. Nice to have an upgrade every once in awhile. Tell Brother Koga I love him! He is a really great person and I look up to him! When I grow up I hope to be as strong as he is. Well the cold can be a burden. I'm glad we don't have snow here. Even though it feels like it will snow sometimes. The bad thing about cement houses is that during the winter they are even colder than outside! It's like a freezer! I really enjoyed the time we had to go to the temple together before I came out. I'm really glad I have you to talk to Dad! I know that I can always count on you for anything. When I do get back though I would really like to talk more about the temples because I've got a few questions. I'm sure that you can help me out with it. I knew someone here on the mission who was a temple worker before he came out. I thought that was so cool. That is something I would be very interested in doing! I would absolutely love it! Who knows if I'll be able to speak English when I get back. I've decided to give my homecoming talk in Spanish because a lot of our ward is Spanish haha. :D I would love to work with you too Dad. That would be so great. Do I have to be recommended to do it or how would that work? I haven't been enough times to get it down in Spanish completely though. But it wouldn't be difficult. I understand it really well! I love it in Spanish. We were teaching a new investigator this week and we had a very interesting experience. She was telling us about a trial or question she had and that if she could find the answer to it in the Book of Mormon she would be baptized and when she said that I'm not sure why but immediately Alma 32 came to my mind. I'll be honest I did hesitate a little to tell her but I did it. I told her I think that she would find her answer in that chapter and I had no idea what her need was. So tomorrow I will be finding out if I was right or not. We also had a great experience last night. We taught the husband of a lady we contacted and it was great! He had taken a proclamation of the family with him to read and when we got to teach him the first time he had already read part of the Book of Mormon! I know that the Lord prepares people because he commented to us how his Uncle who was like his best friend was a member of the church and he had been really impressed by the church and had heard really good things. He flat out told us he wants to learn more about the church and we had such a great experience. I love being a missionary! That is so great for you Dad. I'm glad you have done so much. Just keep trying your hardest Dad and just keep trying to be better! I know Heavenly Father loves you a lot and so do I! You are one special person! Thanks so much Dad! I love you most!

Hola mama!
le amo bastante! mi semana fue muy bien y tuvimos mucho exito y muchas experiencias! Love you Mom!:D You are loved and missed by your son too haha! I'm glad your flight was well and you and Dad are safe. Don't worry your body will adjust and you'll be back to normal before long! I don't even recognize Kellston, he is so big. They are one smart and talented family! My week went really good! We had a lot of success! One thing we are really focusing on here is working more with the members to hasten the work of salvation and it yields results! We have received a lot of inspiration and a lot of results! My companion and I were thinking about how we as missionaries go to visit members and most of the time we just ask them to give us names of their friends and people they know but we never help them to be self sufficient in missionary work. So what we did is we developed a plan to help the members be more self sufficient in missionary work so they can see more of their friends and aquaintances be baptized. This plan has a few different part. Each Sunday we have a mini training meeting with all the members from our area and we work with them and teach them how to be more effective teachers of the gospel and how they can share it with their friends. We also share our goals with them and program our appointments with them so they can go with us and they are so willing! They are really excited and have been talking to people about the gospel! It is a much more effective way to receive references! We also have established a mission plan with each member family and they are doing it! To each family we have given a calendar of the month and for each day it has a space where they can mark if they have read and prayed as a family and on Sunday there is a space to mark if they went to church. There is also a space to mark if they have family night as well. Each day has a space to mark if they talked to someone new about the gospel. So the calendar helps them to focus on their needs and share the gospel. It's working and people love it! The listening is the hardest. More than anything it takes a lot of courage to fulfill my part but I try. My investigators are good! No one came to church last week but it's ok because we had a lot of success with the members and I know that before long the investigators will get better and better! Yes I do play the piano sometimes. I have played various times in sacrament meeting haha. Your welcome Mom and thank you to all of you! You and everyone else have been huge examples to me too and it has helped so much! You all are in my prayers as well! Be sure to rest up! I've been good. It's cold here, we get 30 and below but it's nice! I would love to go to Meg's but I just have to get up the courage to get on a plane for 12 hours. This week we have a round table with President and that should be fun! On P-day we just get ready for the week. We clean (yes Mom I clean the house and I think you would be pretty proud of the job I do) and run errands and stuff like that. Love you more than all the mud I have seen in the mission haha.

Hola Pap!
le amo mucho! mi semana fue muy Buena y tuvimos mucho exito entrabajar con los miembros! estoy muy animado por esa semana! Hi Dad love you! How did I know! Gravy land sounds really sticky. haha I'm sure when we are all immortal and perfect that Heavenly Father will let you keep on eating gravy. haha You'll be able to eat all the gravy you want! No worries pops! Just take good care of yourself and take vitamin C and be healthy and you will feel better! I'm really glad you are improving! Please don't over work yourself and if you need help or to take a break do it! I know you do don't work yourself too much! Yes getting healthy is really good! It is never too late! Set small goals and work for them! I know it will help! That is really true and I have seen it here on my mission. Often it's the simplest acts of kindness that matter most. We have really been blessed with a lot of experiences this week. One thing we have been doing is before we leave in the morning we ask Heavenly Father to place at least one person or family in our path so we can begin to teach them and He has fulfilled his part! We were returning to our house one night and we hadn't found anyone and just before we got home a member from a different ward stopped by us and gave us a reference just out of the blue of his Sister! It was awesome! Then another day we were going to a lesson with a member family and to our surprise we found 2 new investigators there that are interested! I know Heavenly Father listens to our prayers! Another great experience is that we were on divisions and it was a pretty rough day because it was cold and rainy all day and there was know one in the streets and so I remember saying a prayer in my head and I asked Heavenly Father to put someone in our path and I felt a little discouraged. But as I was thinking a voice came into my mind and said not to worry and to follow my companion because the person we were going to visit right now would be there and we would be able to teach her. So we get to the house and that's exactly what happened! We were able to have a spiritual lesson. The important thing that I learned from that experience is that Heavenly Father does listen to my prayers and He does love me. The Lords church continues to grow and progress. That's one of the things I love. Thank you Dad, that is my goal. I want to leave it all here in the mission. My goal is to become so close to Heavenly Father and the Savior because I will need it throughout my life. That is what I want. I didn't come on my mission to have high results or something like that. I came to serve others and help them and most importantly because I love Heavenly Father. I want to increase that love and come back converted to Christ. Yes I'm ok. I just need to learn how to budget and be thrifty. haha That is another goal to have before I get home! I'm trying not to have to take money out sorry. Love you lots Dad!

You are doing great Mom! I know you can reach that goal! You just keep at it. si se puede si se puede! Tell everyone I say hi and I love them all. Tell Bryce congrats and that he will be a great missionary! For New Years we did like one of the most awesome things ever!!!!!! READY????? .......WE....!!!!slept.... hahahaha.

My companions great! We are doing well! His Spanish is so good! He talks so well for how much time he has! I know for sure that he will talk like a native soon! I want Ty to take a tie from me and write Broski's forever Jon and Ty. I'm so glad Jeremy gets to come home early. We had a really awesome experience this week! One day our appointments were falling through and so we went to visit a future investigator and when we got there we had one of the most powerful lessons ever! We invited her to baptism and she readily accepted! She will be baptized in February! When we were teaching her it was so neat because we didn't have to think about what to say, the words were just coming out! The spirit was so strong! We just found her on Friday and she came to church on Sunday and loved it! She was crying too. She has an answer from Heavenly Father and feels this is right! Yes Mom I'm sure President Jordan would love a thank you email. I love you more than all the clouds I've seen here in Victoria! (the sun hasn't come out in weeks...) Love you best!

Hey Dad!
I love you! Wow that is so cool that you got to go walk on Normandy beach. I'm sure it was a really great experience! Wow there are craters that are still there??? What a neat experience! That's really true, when people don't follow the gospel this is what happens. It's just going to get worse. We have to be prepared for when it does. But as long as we are obedient to Gods commandments we will prosper in the land. My week was really good. I love doing random little acts of service here. For example: When we were leaving the church on Sunday we saw a man and his family that had their car break down so we told the family that we were with to pull over and we got out and helped them! They might not seem like huge things but I feel really good when I help someone else! We had another experience like that too. It's been rainy and cold here and we have hills in our area so one day we saw a truck that was stuck going up a hill in the mud. So we stopped by and offered him our help and together we got it unstuck. Oh and we also helped a Sister cut down one of her trees with a machete. haha That was fun! Right now I'm just working on staying focused for these last few months. I want these to be the best months of my mission and I want to experience a lot of growth. I want to look back at the end and be able to say that I left my whole heart, might, mind and strength on the line. I'm really grateful for Heavenly Father and the blessings he has given me! I know He loves me and is helping me! I love you Dad and miss you lots! Enjoy yourself and be safe! Love you more than all the gravy and butter in the world! Thanks for the heads up about the flu! I'll be safe.

Buenas tardes mi mama!
le amo! haha no worries Mom! It was great to see you all! It's not like it's the last time you will ever see me haha! In another short 5 months we will be talking again and like a couple weeks after I'll give you a hug! Victoria City is really nice! I really like the area that I'm in. I'm right next to the mountains and its super cold here too! I'm not quite sure how long I will be here haha. I don't think I'm going to finish my mission here though. Yes I loved the nativity and the stocking and everything else you sent! Thank you so much! After we used the nativity I gave it as a gift to a family in the ward! You and sister Facer think alike because she did the same thing you did. The church is a little far from where we are and the ward is really nice! The members are super sweet and nice. The people here are interested from what it looks like. Yes we had dinner invitations and for Christmas we did something special. There is an older man in the ward who lives alone. When he joined the church his wife left him so my companion and I wanted to do something really special so he could have a good Christmas. So we took some gifts and ties of ours and went and bought tacos and took it all to him and shared a gospel message. The spirit was super strong and I felt so good doing it! It was a blessing to be able to bless the life of someone who is less fortunate than I am. We have a lot of investigators. Some names are to start off are Eguia family, Perez Sabala family, Cesar, Berenice, Alberto, Jorge, Rosario, Ramiro, Adrian, Leti, Luceero, Yesica, Veronica. Victoria City is a big city. There are 2 zones here. It's about the size of Salt Lake City I think or a bit smaller. I still remained focused the best I can! I will do my best! I get to go through the temple with one of my converts. Her name is Catalina Leon Del Angel, she will go through February 28th. The most important thing is to just trust in the Lord. I still have a lot to change. I love my new companion Elder Facer, we clicked really fast! Thanks so much mom! I love you with all my heart! I love you more than all the fog that was here the other day! You couldn't see anything! I miss you lots! Keep being awesome! You are doing such a great job Mom. Keep it up. Love you!

Hola papa!
Le amo! espero que este bien! felicidades por bajar 12 libres en peso! es fantastic! ahora tiene que dejar la coca! Ok theres your weekly Spanish Dad!:D hmm that is a bit strange but its good that you could go to church even if they only had sacrament meeting because of the weather. It was pretty cold here too! Sounds like your just one sick bunch! Just take care of yourself and get better! Yes it was a little better for my companion haha. It was so great to see all of you. I'm really glad you are doing well. I'm doing really good now. I love you too Dad! Thank you for your email and all your love! My week was good and fun filled. I really could feel the spirit of Christmas more as I served others! This will definitely be one Christmas I will never forget. I felt the spirit so strong! I have a testimony of helping others and I know that when we help someone else we are helping the Savior. I know he is so pleased with us when we reach out to touch a soul who is struggling and needs help. I also have a very strong testimony that this is Christ's church. I know he loves us and the truth could not be any simpler. He is always by our side in hard and easy times. I am so grateful for this wonderful gift that Heavenly Father sent to us. I know that if we know God then we know our true potential. The decisions we make will determine our destiny. I love you Dad! Tell Ty I love and miss him. Tell him to study Preach My Gospel and the scriptures like nothing else! A powerful missionary follows Preach My Gospel and the scriptures. Tell him to be exactly obedient and to develop a pure love for Christ and Heavenly Father. Pure love casts out all fear. (Moroni 8:16) Love you lots!
