Happy Easter

March 24, 2013

 The mission is going well and the week was good. The weather has been pretty crazy.  It was pretty hot one day and then it snowed for 3 days so we had a few inches of snow, but then it warmed up again and it all melted. Yesterday and today it got back down into the 40s. We got the car back yesterday, so we have been staying busy and are getting a lot of work done. We picked up a new investigator from a part member family and taught her on Monday. Her name is Sassy. She is 9 years old and wants to be baptized. She is really elect, but doesn't really believe in the being resurrected part. We taught her the Plan of Salvation and the gospel of Jesus Christ and focused on faith. This week we went to go teach the foster kid, but we found out that he ran away to join the family gang down in Ogden. The police are out looking for him, they also think it might have been a kidnapping. Sunday we had a mission wide fast to help get miracles coming so we can baptize people and reach the mission goal for the quarter. I also had to give another talk on Sunday. The topic was on the Savior. I thought that it went pretty good. Today for P-day we went to the Brigham Temple and did a session. That was really cool. We might go hang out with a priest who is preparing to go on a mission. He said he would take us bow shooting today. We didn't get a chance to see the peacocks yet so we plan on doing that if we have time. That should be fun. After that we have a few lessons. One with a new Gator we picked up and another with a less active mom, who wants to get her 8 year old son baptized. How is work going? Ian is applying to BYU-I? That's a good choice. I don't know if I would like Provo unless I was doing a sport there..What is Ian going to do during the summer? Also, do you know the Prince of Egypt movie soundtrack?? I've been trying to get it to listen to on the mission, but I can't find it anywhere. Also when is Rhea's Birthday? Well I got to go. Happy Easter!! :) Take care. I love you.
