Hey
hey hey!!!! Haha not much happened this week again...we cannot find any
of the referrals we've been given from our stake president!! He gave us
about 13 names of individuals and families and no one has addresses
down here, so it's nearly impossible!!! It's been really frustrating,
but we've been getting some help from our home boy Daryl Crichton!! He's Samoan, even his name is straight white. Anyways, Elder Speakman and I
are doing great, just trucking through the heat this week! Our bikes
broke and we can't seem to fix them as of now, so lot's of walking and
finding new shortcuts!!! Yeah and our living quarters are separate from
the house which has been bomb cause now I don't feel like we bug the
fam, every time we come in at night!! I've only had 1 interview as DL and
it was for James, a 10 year old for the sisters, haha and when I asked
if he has committed a serious crime, he said yes, but I don't think he
understood the question so I had to reword it but it was very funny none
the less!!! haha please don't send any McDonald's or Carl's Jr gift
cards!!! Haha we're gaining weight like crazy!!! I left my last area at
167, and now I'm at upper 170s!!! We're trying our best to keep it off
but we literally don't have enough time to get crazy good workouts in,
so we just deal with it and try and eat healthy....! Haha and the pic of
the umbrella I sent last week of the umbrella....when I hit the dog, it
only bent the bar of the umbrella, the rest was part of my freak out (;
And
congrats on Rachel going on a mission!!! That's dope!! I've been in
contact with Talon a little bit which it sounds like he's doing great!!!
Man I love that guy!!
And I'm so
glad You got my package so quick!!! I sent that the first of Dec I
think!! Haha no worrries on reading the letters, they were meant to be
read! I can teach everyone how to tie the ie's (lava lavas) when I Skype yous all on Christmas!!
And we should be good to be able to Skype with the family that lives
next to us!! Speakman said we
just have to ask! Elder Bybee for reals was bomb! haha we're
gonna try and kick it after the mish, he's going to Oregon State, but
we're gonna try and figure it out! And Coco's baby is
sooooooo stinking cute!!! Haha that kung fu pic is awesome!! Loved it!!!
So
this week, I just want to share a very cool experience!! We were out
trying to contact some of the referrals and we're having zero
success!! So we decided to go tracting instead, and we were over by a Methodist church, which Crichton told us to just get ready to get bashed
by someone when we knocked a door. But I had just finished studies that
morning, and had read over Isaiah 41:10 again, and the verse popped
back into my head..."Fear not, for I am with thee.." And both Speakman
and Crichton really didn't want to go in, but I really felt there was
someone over here we needed to get a hold of. So they kind of reluctantly
followed, and I decided on a white and blue house, right behind the Methodist chapel...we knocked and found Luisa, a mid 30s lady who had
been to our church a couple times, and loved it and had been wanting to
learn more about missionary work and such!!! IT WAS A VERY COOL
EXPERIENCE!!!!!! Such a testimony builder for me to listen to the Spirit
when he prompts!!! Even if it seems like you're probs going to be bible
bashed to timbuk2!!!! (Don't know how to spell that)!! Not much
happened this week, just getting bigger physically and spiritually!! My
ponderize scripture for the week is Mosiah 2:17! I can't remember if
it's a scripture mastery or not, but its a good one to ponderize!!!
I loves Yous all and hope this week has been a bomb one!!!!(;
LOVE,
Elder Larson

| We needed to clean out our house very badly cause it had 25 years of rubbish in it, so we took a night after planning and went to town!! This is about a fourth of all the stuff we threw away!! |
