To Dad: Well this week has been a pretty simple week. We didn’t get very much missionary work done which was kind of a bummer but we still had a good week. I went down to the valley Tuesday morning till Wednesday night when I brought back my greenie! His name is Elder F from St George Utah! We didn’t know each other before. He went to Dixie. We graduated the same year though but were just interested and did different activities so we never crossed paths. It was pretty interesting to get a second companion from St. George. He is a pretty funny kid and we get along very well! Thursday we went tracting for the first time with him and had 4 pretty good contacts. That afternoon we had to go down to V to get our back tires changed which took a while so we didn’t get anything else done that day. Friday we had 2 service projects. One was moving a lady out of our ward and only 2 other members showed up to help move so it took a while. Then we helped an elderly couple do yard work because they are incapable of doing it themselves. Then we went to contact a referral and we got a new investigator out of it. His father is a very strong convert of a few years and really wanted his son to hear our message so we went and taught him the restoration and the Spirit was pretty strong! I messed up a couple times but I know he got the point and he invited us back this next week! Saturday was a day full of conference! That is quite literally all we got to do. During the afternoon session we got a call that the priesthood session wasn’t going to be working at the B building so we had to go down to V stake center. It turned out alright because nobody fed us that night so 8 of us missionaries went out to Red Robin for dinner and had a good time! Sunday we watched conference and saw a less active family and that was it. It was a pretty slow week besides conference. I loooovveed conference I took so many great notes on it! I don’t have my notes with me right now so I’ll bring them next week and talk to you about my favorite talks. It was crazy that the Relief Society presidency was released! And there were NO new temples! I was surprised but oh well. Maybe this fall! Well that’s about all for this week. Not a whole lot but this next week is going to be really good and we should hopefully have a lot to talk about in my next email. I love you tons! Hope you have a great week!
To Mom: I hope Grandma starts getting better. She is in my prayers. I’m sure the missionary you stopped by to see really did appreciate it. That would be really hard. You don’t have to worry about getting released from your calling. Once they decide you have been in there long enough you will just become the General Primary President! hmm.. What I got out of conference was pretty much how I can prepare to become a good husband and father and how to raise a family in the changing world. I felt like almost every talk was about that. I told dad a little about my new comp. He is from St George also! Small world. But I didn’t know him before. We get along so it’s all good! Everything has been going good though. Not a very productive week. Just conference mostly! I love you tons! Keep being the best mom ever!
