Time to answer questions:
I can attend the temple four times a
year. I did think that the Celestial
Room in the Portland temple was cool.
Elder Williams is from Hiawatha, Kansas. He went to the MTC June 5, 2013.
I am currently in Alma 12 in my
personal study (I read about 6 chapters of Book of Mormon a day)
I also wanted to thank the Browns
for the package they sent. I also want
to thank everyone who has sent me letters, I enjoy them a ton. I would also like to request some pictures of
the San Juan Mountains, the adobes, and other prominent Montrose landmarks, you
can sent them whenever is most convenient for you.
This week has been interesting. Most
of our work so far has been looking up people in the area book (record of
people taught, or interested in the missionary discussions).
We have a new investigator this
week. He is
interested in just talking religion with us. He just got out of the air force
and is looking at going into the navy.
We taught a lady about the restoration and she seemed interested in it. We told her that she needs to read the Book of Mormon to
know if what we tell her is true or not. We set up another appointment for next
week.
We
taught another lady some of the commandments this week. She wants to be baptized, but
wants to make sure it is for the right reasons.
We are still teaching another investigator. He just needs to receive faith of his own.
The weather this week has been very
windy. Many trees have been blown over onto people's houses, cars, etc. It has
also been very cold. This last week we had two Christmas parties. The Prune
Hill Ward Christmas party was huge. They decorated the gym. The theme was back
to Bethlehem and everyone wore ancient attire. They decorated the gym to look
like Bethlehem two (very extensive decorations, i wish i would have taken
pictures of it). The Grass Valley Ward Christmas party was a brunch. The food
was really good and they also had Santa.
My hour is almost up (one hour is so
short to do everything!), so i guess i will have to close. There is so many
other things i could write about, but i can't think of any. I guess i will have
to write a letter with the rest.
