WEEKLY EMAIL-WEEK 16

WELL HELLO FAMILY. FIRST OFF, ALL IS GOING GOOD THIS WEEK. WE HAD OUR FIRST INTERVIEWS WITH PRESIDENT ARCHIBALD, AND IT WENT REALLY WELL. ITS AMAZING HOW YOU CAN TELL HE IS AN INSPIRED MAN. SO, TO ANSWER MOM'S QUESTIONS, YES ITS WARMING UP A BIT IT WAS ABOUT 34 OR 35 CELCIUS LAST WEEK WHICH IS LIKE 80'S OR 90'S IN FARENHEIT (IM NOT TOO SURE) BUT IT WONT LAST TOO LONG. AND YES WE ARE IN A CAR AREA RIGHT NOW, WE HAVE A NEWER MALIBU, ITS PRETTY NICE. ANYWAYS, ABOUT THIS WEEK, FIRST ITS ALWAYS FUN TO HEAR HOW EVERYTHING IS GOING BACK HOME, AND ALL THE FUN INFO! BUT ITS CRAZY TO HEAR ABOUT CASEY GROW! IM SO PROUD OF THAT GUY! I WOULD LOVE TO SERVE WITH HIM ON THE MISSION! SO RIGHT NOW WE HAVE 3 INVESTIGATORS... "GATORS"... OLLIE WHO I TOLD YOU ABOUT LAST WEEK, RIGHT NOW HE IS AT EFY, WHICH WILL BE REALLY GOOD FOR HIM. AND THEN WE HAVE A COUPLE. WE JUST TAUGHT THEM YESTERDAY, AND EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING! WE BROUGHT ONE OF THE PRIEST AGE BOYS FROM OUR WARD WITH US AND IT REALLY HELPS TO BRING THE SPIRIT IN SO MUCH STRONGER! TO HAVE THE ADDED TESTIMONY OF A YOUNG GUY OF WHAT HE KNOWS TO BE TRUE IS AMAZING! SO I HAVE HAVE TO TELL YOU GUYS, I HAVE ALWAYS HAD A TESTIMONY OF THE BOOK OF MORMON, AND THE TRUTH OF IT. BUT THE OTHER DAY WHEN ELDER WILSON AND I WERE TEACHING A MEMBER LESSON, I ASKED THAT THEY CONTINUE TO READ AND PRAY ABOUT THE BOOK OF MORMON. AND I THOUGHT TO MYSELF, I SHOULD BE CONTINUING TO DO THE SAME. AND AFTER MY PRAYERS THE OTHER NIGHT AND ASKING, I HAD THE CLEAREST ANSWER IN MY LIFE! I WAS THINKING OF THE BOOK OF MORMON, AND HOW MUCH I LOVE TO READ AND STUDY IT, AND HOW MY PATRIARCHAL BLESSING SAYS I WILL HAVE A STRONG DESIRE TO STUDY THE SCRIPTURES,THAT IS WHEN MY ANSWER CAME: IF IT WASN'T TRUE, I WOULDN'T CONTINUE TO READ AND STUDY IT! I KNOW THAT EVERY ONE RECEIVES ANSWERS DIFFERENTLY, AND I KNOW THAT MY TESTIMONY, IS NOW SO MUCH STRONGER OF THE TRUTH OF THE BOOK OF MORMON! I LOVE THIS GOSPEL, AND THE TRUTH OF IT WHICH I KNOW WITHOUT A DOUBT IN MY HEART TO BE TRUE! I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH, AND I CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR THE LOVE AND SUPPORT YOU SHOW ME EACH AND EVERY DAY! YOU ALL MEAN THE WORLD TO ME, AND I LOVE THE THOUGHT OF KNOWING I HAVE AN ETERNAL FAMILY THAT CAN NEVER BE TAKEN FROM ME! I LOVE THIS WORK, AND I LOVE MY MISSION! I COULDN'T IMAGINE NOT BEING OUT HERE! I LOVE YOU ALL! LOVE
