Dear, Family 
 This week has been good we did a lot of door knocking but it seemed like people just packed up and left town like no one was home. but funny experience we were at this door and this dog was just going to eat us and the owner son came pulled the dog away and took it to the backyard but told the his mom to get the door. She came to the door with a look of anger and told us to BLEEP off. Then she slammed the door so hard that it shook the front pouch as if the earth was going to divided asunder. As we were walking away we could hear her curse and yell at her son that he was suppose to release the dog. Walked away laughing and feeling sorry for her. So yeah not much has happened we taught our investigator the Law of Chasity and helped her hopefully to deal with the fear of telling her boyfriend that she was going to keep this commandment. Hopefully they break up because that will be better in the long run. I never thought I would pray from a relationship to break up. but now I am and I feel horrible but I know that it will bless her numerously. The things the spirit and the lord will have you do are just crazy sometimes. I love the lord! and I'm grateful for the Atonement that allows us to become as new creatures. To walk with newness of life. Stay close to your father he will lead you and guide you.

Dear, Family
 This week has been alright. After seeing you all it made me a bit trunkie I miss all of you a lot I miss the crazy family. I just want all of you to know I love you! So does it seem like I grew up I can't tell and do I really sound different? Yeah but this week not much has happened just transfer week. Went to Subway twice now I'm broke as :) Got to budget a lot better I never had this issue till I came to this area. ridiculous so I'm gonna just not get subway when the rest get it. Just too expensive. But yeah so this week we had deep clean always a lot of fun nearly killed myself trying to clean the mould growing in the shower, but looks like I came out victorious. Did a lot of finding again just had two investigators drop us so even more finding. I'm getting a lot more confident which is good. A little girl while door knocking screamed to her mom "MOM there are teenagers at the door and I don't know who they are" me and elder Simpson about dead laughing it was funny. other than that not much saw the ocean again with Simpson took a better photo but I'll send it. So transfers are today me and Simpson stayed so where together for another transfer up here in BUNNDY! So went to bundy west investigators his name is Patrick he is 70 years old the coolest guy ever he is catholic and he is more helpful than the members in the ward he took us to go shopping today because the other elders have the car for transfer meeting. just a cool guy. but we shared a message with him it was Elder Erickson last time really he would get to be with Pat so he bore a powerful testimony of the Book of Mormon! and shared a Mormon message with him the spirit was there so strongly. The only reason Pat isn't baptised is because he don't pray with real intent. And we just bore testimony and promised him the blessing that the day he prays with real intent about the book of Mormon. He will receive his answer. I Love the moments when the spirit will speak to you so tenderly and give you in the very moment what to say those are the most memorable experiences is when you are prompted by the spirit and you act. I love you all hope you have a wonderful week.
           love,

Dear, Family
 This week for the first two days we stayed in the flat because my companion foot was still out of condition so that was no fun. and because of that it made me really lazy it wasn't good. So when we did have to go back to work I didn't want to so lately I've really have seen in myself kind of fighting the work. So yeah I really I'm just trying to change my attitude and enjoy the work. Because when we fight something we don't grow. And that is because I'm in a state contrary to a state of happiness. So I just been trying to do that to lose myself in the work. Well for the most part I've been good we had stake conference and after the wards got rebuked for not giving us referrals and we got 2 referrals after it was awesome! but yeah this week has been alright. I'm super excited to talk to you all over Skype and stuff I just need to figure out Skype account and stuff and time. I'll try to get that and email in a little bit. 
 Love you
