Mom,
hahaha its good to have boys on all
sides of the world. i think i might go to europe also for a little bit to make
friends there also that way i can have eyes on most of the planet! i thought
that was funny what riley and dakota did at efy haha! thats my boys!
whatever
day his call comes i still wont find out until next monday. blessings from the
mish!
ya im still zl with elder
denna. its cool. me and elder dennas will be friends eternally. he just has
some beliefs that i dont agree with, ya know he just sees the way in a
different way then me. he sees byu idaho and i see byu provo. mom are you
friends with his mom? tell her i said that i dont like her son.
the picture from
last week only one person there was a member, every single one of those people
wants to be baptized but they live 2 buses and 2 1/2 hours away from the
nearest church in another city, one of there freinds/ relatives is serving a
mission and passed the reference to our mission and seeing as how our mission
doesnt have any couple missionaries theres no way to open the church up there.
yish, theres at least 100 baptisms within a years work there. the church will
probably show up there in about 5 to 8 years. remember that older couples, when
youre holding your granbabies in your arms theres people in other parts of the
world that want to go to heaven but cant because youre sittin at home holdin
your granbabies.
elder
kellog got home?! that makes me next to go home. im daddy elder now?! ooo myyy
gosh...
this transfer the secretaries will call me to ask what airport i want to land
in on november 14th of 2013, which is this year, stop smiling mom, im gonna get
off in the fresno airport or is there one that gets me off closer to the
temple? (temple marriage joke, anybody?... anybody? ;D)
ya ive met the genaros,
i think sister genaro is a 16 year old girl sometimes cause she so spunky.
there a lot different then the tavares, not even close to the same actually.
not better or worse, just different. the work still remains!
im gonna send
some pics to show how the week was, dont have much to say for this week except
the 2013 efy soundtrack that i got off the church site and baptisms! now that i
think of it we baptized these two on wednesday actually, what a coincidence.
these two little brothers that we baptized just might be the firmest baptisms
that ill have on the mission. here in 7 to 8 years i wanna see them on
missions. these are some special boys, and the branch already loves them a lot!
hey mom can you send me a picture of a rose growing out of the concrete, dont
ask why, just get me a photo of this please. :D the other day we were teaching
a recent convert and his friend about prayer and fernando that one kid we baptized
super crazily, said ya every night i thank God for my life and God always
responds to me, " your welcome :D" i was dying of laughter. its nice
when you these people become your best friends! im going to eat two subway
footlongs for lunch this week, ya im a hungry boy. love you mom and cambria. -

Dad,
ya the church basically only grows
off of the sacrifice of the members, whether it be an hour with the
missionaries one week to teach someone or a couple giving up six months so that
the church can extend to a city its never been to, all depends on the humility
of the members giving up there time that was actually already given to them by
God and just returning a little portion of it. the church is only as strong as
its members.
thanks for the words of
encouragement! its wierd thinking that im already coming to the end. i cant
believe it. its driving me insane. you have that feeling inside of you
sometimes like you need to give even more, do a little more, be a little
better, baptize a little more. its something that drives every missionary
insane. ive got to give a little more and be a little better! theres many more
people to baptize in the next 4 1/2 months! love ya dad!
