Wicked

So this week has been pretty uneventful; just small things happened. I have come to the conclusion that I have learned more here in Hemet than I have anywhere else. I had an experience this week where I felt like every thing I was searching for fell into place; I was gaining so much knowledge I could not hold it all- it was crazy awesome.
I also got a sweet gash in my finger. I am missing a bit if skin. It was bleeding so much it kind of scared me how much blood there was. I have a picture I will send you all.
It is getting pretty hot also, I am going dark again. I am to the point were I can’t go a day without sweating profusely. I love the heat now, so that is good.
Well transfers are coming up, I may stay, I may go- we will see. I think I am going but only the Lord knows. I kind of want to stay but ... oh well, we will see. I love you family.

Exciting Week

Well this week has been really exciting. We, as a zone, had 8 baptism’s this week, one of which was our wards. It was amazing and a great experience. I loved it! This past Sunday (yesterday), I had to give two talks- one in sacrament meeting and the other at the baptism. The one at the baptism went well but the other one didn’t go so well, at least I didn’t think so. But hey, what can I say we had hours to prepare for it- oh well.
The rest of the week went well, we had a lady come down from UVU and tell us about her conversion from Muslim to Mormon, and it was awesome! I will have to get here name for you, so you can look up here story for your self. I love you all and will talk to you next week.

Crazy Week

Oh my gosh, I have had a crazy week. We have had so much success we are going to have a baptism this next Sunday-way exited! And we have already had 3 people tell us they want to be baptized. It all went well this week excepted one thing- EASTER SUNDAY, yes yesterday was horrible. I was so sick all day, just puking my brains out- it was awful. We had a good dinner but it still was bad. It was just a 24 hour flu... but it just had to be on Easter- ahhh. I did enjoy it! The cool thing about this week was that the atonement and resurrection meant more to me this year than ever before. It truly meant a lot to me this time. Well this one may be a bit short but I want to thank you for all you are doing to help me in anyway, it may be. I love you!

Good Week

Hey Family,
How’s life in cold Colorado (all of you except for Dawson’s)? Well things are going good for me down here. I can now tell you that through the Lord and prayer that things are possible. I have been praying so hard this past week to be a better leader, missionary and companion and that the people won’t bug me as much and that I will be able to find love in them. This past week has been amazing. We had multi-zones so we got to hear from president. Then we had conference, which was so amazing. You know what I have noticed is that when I was at home I wasn’t as exited as I was to see conference as I am out here. My favorite talk was either the one by Elder Holland or Elder Perry; they are good speakers. Here is something I want you to read.
