Hello Everyone!!!
Wow Amanda had scotts baby huh!!!! That is so awesome I love it!!!!! WOW yes hahaha What day did she have it??? how much did she weight?? how long?? I need to know this people come on haha that is so sweet!!!! Im gonna need pictures ASAP!! anything else happen this week? This week for us was pretty slow we had to drop a bunch of investigators because they just weren't progressing. I also went on tours this week where we split and go with a different companion for a day and it was pretty fun.. I got to be an office elder for a day haha so we had to drive to about Nashua which is in New Hampshire to pick up a car and I got to drive in mass. for the first time and i got to drive by myself haha so it was about an hour drive which was pretty sweet. As an office elder you don't get to prosolite much but it was fun alot of driving around running errans for the senior elders haha except I couldn't sleep to much that night because I didn't do anything hard or draining for a whole day haha so that sucked but it was cool to see how that office elders worked and stuff!! and I learned there are alot of Apostate missionaries here and that is kind of the Rep. for the mission so Im going to be changing that. I've lucked out my first transfer i've been with some really hard working missionaries so its real good!! Today im heading in to Boston for the first time so I'll be taking alot of pictures for you all back home!! i'll be sending this memory card probably next week not sure yet though!! So what is everyone up too?? you can email me back you don't all have to hand write letters haha I love hearing from you and thank you for all the advice its always good!! I read a good quote in PMG this week I can't remember what the exact words are but its saying something like " A study of the doctrine of the Church will changes a persons Behavior, faster then a study of Behavior will changes someones Behavior" Pres. Boyd K. Packer. But I though that was really cool haha because we all have Behavior issues that we need to over come and that just proves in itself that The Gospel applys to everyone. That is something that I really like doing to make teaching people more personal is finding something that will apply to there life like what is going to make a 19 year old gangsta kid thing the gospel is important to him??? It makes it so much more personal to people when you teach them like this and then your teaching people not just lessons which is love. I am having so much fun out here!!! It poured the other day and we were out finding (trying to find people) and it kinda sucked but then I just sat for a sec and though man Im on my mission!! When am i going to have another opportunity to be finding people in the rain in Framingham Mass. in my life?? probably never haha I have to coolest calling on the planet and since i've been out i've been thinking ya know Abinidai taught and as far as he knew no one listened to him so he could have got really down on himself but just had influenced one person which was alma! Then from alma came the people at the waters of mormon then from him came alma the younger and amulick and the sons of mosiah and then it goes down generation to generation and he influenced thousands of people just my getting one person!! I bet at the time he didn't know what a major impact he was going to have on the world at the time so even though sometime we feel our efforts aren't paying off you never know what you say that might influence someone to have a better life and come unto chirst which would lead thousands of other people!!! Just a really cool though i though of this week :) well I love you all send me some pictues and i'll be talkin to you next week!!!!
