Myra is Golden
Hey what’s up everyone. This week has been a really awesome/weird week. The best news of the week is that we gave out 4 new baptismal dates and all of them accepted. So now we have five people with a baptismal dates of July 23 - August 6...We also had four investigators at church this week, one of the investigators with a baptismal date was unable to go to church since he had to work. We also had a weird week since we tracted a lot and had quite a few people fighting with us over doctrine haha. In my first area, I had one guy the whole time, fight with us, but in this area there are a lot of "born again" people and they all listen to their pastors about verses in the Bible that say things about angels and stuff so they claim that the Angel Moroni thing could not have happened. It is hard to ever have the spirit when they start arguing so the lessons don’t go as well as we hope. Myra is still going to be baptized on the 23rd and she has been progressing amazingly. Probably my best investigator ever, haha. She is golden. We have also started teaching her sister. But her dad is always at work so we haven’t taught him yet. My tooth feels great and thank you for the shoes you bought. I hate the shoes I got from here. Just cheap, uncomfortable and already breaking. I don’t have anything in mind special for my birthday. Whatever haha. I ate the roast beef you sent last night and it was awesome hah! I also love the Gatorade packet things you sent, and Propel. Elder Key-Macdonald and I are doing well! I also got the Dixie Elder thing in the mail this week and was way good to hear from everyone! I am way excited for my buddies. They are studs. That would be awesome to go to Mexico when I get home. Seeing the beach everyday makes me want to scuba dive haha. When we come back to the Philippines we should go stay in Boracay and then it is very close to my area now and I can show you other areas too. It was good to hear about the family reunion. I bet you had a blast. Sorry nobody caught any fish at Kolob except dad. Since I wasn't there he has no competition! Better enjoy your time dad because when I get back you are no longer going to be champ. Anyway, things are going well. I love you all!

Hey Pops!
Things here are going well in New Washington! We have definitely seen our hard work show awesome blessings to both us and our investigators! Our health is doing well and we are having a good time together. I am glad you are having fun with Britt and running her around. Also I bet you guys had fun in Kolob. I miss that place a lot and can’t wait to go there again. How is work going for you and how is church? Do you guys have any new callings? I won’t lie, Sunday here is the most hectic day because nothing is organized right. We are like the organizers/ushers/bouncers haha. It is quite funny but frustrating too! Anyway I love you dad. Talk to ya next week!
Hey Bert, I bet you had fun at Kolob! I wish I could have been there. That is a funny story about mom sleeping with the mice at the cabin! I bet she was scared when she found out! How is track and soccer? Alright Bert I love you tons. Have a good week!
