Hello family

Well hopefully some exciting news with L.  well firstly it amazes me how much of the book she remembers.  We asked her who alma the younger was and she remembered her conversion story.  She is in Helamon for the second time now.  But anyhow we talked about fasting during the week and invited to to do a fast with us.  So she agreed, so we went over saturday to start the fast.  It was kind of funny because she said well lets eat a ton of food if were going to fast.  So we started our fast.  And she never showed up to church, because she got back late, like at 1.  But then we brought a member for the lesson, so his wife just got a new job for this business.  And they are looking for someone that would take a job cleaning, and would be free saturday and Sunday.  So he is going to talk to his wife to see if L. could get the job.  Sometimes we just need to be patient for miracles, but they will come if we have faith, and its the lords will.  She also made a big feast the end the fast as well.  And  she stayed strong the the end of the fast, said she didn't know how it turned out, because she couldn't taste it.  It turned out really good though.  

Kind of a funny story as well.  So they call my companion four five, because its easier for them.  So L. was praying and said five four, so J. corrected her, and she started laughing, and then we all did.  And she couldn't pray anymore, so then J. prayed, and started out well my wife has mistaken about four five, pero bueno, and we all just started laughing.  I dont really know what he said during the prayer.  Oh my.  

Dang vacations are already starting.  We meet this really nice dominican lady and met with her.  The contact was really good, as was the lessons.  And she was really excited when we gave her a book of mormon.  But then at the end we found out she was going to Philadelphia for a month.  UGH.  Thats frustrating.  Well we will have to give her a ring in a month.  

MJ and C. are doing lots better now.  We have been stressing on reading the scriptures, so hopefully they will have by next time.  And we gave them the talk from elder holland about the book of mormon, so hopefully they will realize how important it is.  But they have come to church these past two times, so thats good.  

We’ve met a lot of good people these past few weeks, but they haven't come to church, or have failed on the lessons.  But things are really growing here right now.  I’m really excited to see these next few weeks.  
So that druggie looking lady we talked to her on the street again the other day.  So said well maybe one day ill motivate my self and go to church one Sunday.  Sadly she didn't come, but one day she will.  

So while i was with elder Larsen we started saying hi to this crazy old man on a bench.  he would always scream funny things.  In a good way though.  so we just waved as we walked past.  So with time he was sitting with other people and so then we started saying hello to them as well.  And now we have like 7 old people that sit on benches all day long.  But anyhow one day we talked to some of them.  One had a book of mormon before so we gave her one, she is kind of crazy, and a 50 year old man, he is sane.  So we got the sane man’s number.  But it was wrong.  We must have written it down wrong.  Then we never saw him again.  But we say him again the other day, and was like why haven't you called, so we got the right number and are going to meet with him hopefully tomorrow.  Just shows there are  a lot of different ways to find people.  
  
Well we have been invited to like 10 world cup games, but don’t worry we haven't gone to any.  Thats all everyone talks about right now.  

Well i guess devon knows more about it than i do obviously.
You should learn how to make churros.  Not Mexican ones though.  Spanish.   And good  hot chocolate.  You are going to die for them when you taste them.  

Yeah, elder taylor and I contacted her on the streets one day.   
Seems like lots more people have been baptized after i have left, but the important thing they are baptized.  

Jj is a good kid.  Hopefully he´ll get back out soon.  Thats good he could watch ava.   I wouldn´t want to ever put a dog in a kennel for a week.  Im sure the dog would probably rather die.  Just cooped up all day long.  Kind of a funny though.  Jj with tanya and Kevin's car with two dogs and no other passengers.  haha.  

Well thats good devon is back to normal.  Oh bruno, dont know why he wants to eat those frogs.  Not sure what goes through his mind, or when he hears the word cat.  silly dog.  everyone really enjoys it when they hear my dog has a Facebook.  oh and when i show pictures of you, they always say your parents look so young.  some people think dad is my brother.   haha.  

For the fourth we went to dominos and ate ice cream during lunch with the other missionaries.  But just worked other than that.  

I never saw that video.  There are some pretty good animal videos though.  My comp right now likes politics a lot.  We haven't talked to much about it though.  

Well hopefully vivant goes well.  It seemed like it was doing really well from what i knew before the mission.  You and dad could just have races down the streets of highland.  haha.  

Well we ate a feast with L. again.  but ill say more in detail in the other email.  well i love you.  have fun at lake Powell!!!  dont try doing to many flips.  Well hope you have a good time in lake Powell.  Try catching a shark  

love
