Well HI you guys! SO, I guess I should PROBABLY start out by telling
you where I am! I am still in the same place. HA. Nothing to big happened in
transfers but I am excited because I know that this is where the Lord wants me
to be! Holy smokes, snow on the ground! That’s got to be fun! Yesterday it actually
got a little cold here…it was weird. It seemed like it was a fall day back
home; the wind was blowing and it was a bit chilly. I think I am getting kind
of weak to the cold though...LAME! Man, it sure gets dusty here. The wind
starts blowing and it all just kicks up! OH, so I got my haircut! Um...it came
out to be…well, messed up! I just really couldn't stop laughing at myself
though…I looked ridiculous. It’s grown back in now though like a weeks worth or
so and so it’s not so hilarious.
This past week we have actually been blessed with people that we
have found. It has been good because we are working on refilling our
investigator pool and we have had some success. Actually, we met this guy that
lives in the compound next to ours. We haven't taught him or anything but we
talked to him on the street for like fifteen minuets! He is hilarious! He
actually works as a medical personnel at the fire station. Hopefully we will
see something there. We just have been working with the same people also and
just found others. We actually got to go to a family on Saturday though
that I was so SO happy to be able to see. So their circumstances are complicated.
The husband is a member and works like five hours away from their home and the
mom and the five children are not members. The all around thing is, they live
about an hour and a half away from us by car. Because they don't have a car
or that form of transportation to get to church every week and such, they
aren't able to be baptized! The children actually really want to get baptized
but the mom is still feeling for herself that it is true and that it would be
something that she could let her family be apart of also. They really are so
AMAZING though and Brother Wycliffe (the dad) has been so great in helping them
to realize the truths of the restored gospel. Since he is not always around
though, it is hard for them to get their questions answered and such. SO, we
have made plans to visit this family every month and we can have the father
come and we meet and answer questions and discuss this amazing gospel. I really
truly am so grateful that I grew up in a place where I could go pretty much
anywhere around and would be able to walk to church if I wanted! I keep praying
for them and hope that all turns out well.
MAN! I really didn't even do much for Halloween! I did eat good!
That’s about it though. I really honestly wonder myself what other
holidays they do celebrate…Hmmm? I will have to look into that. I do know that
they did just celebrate their independence day but it really didn't seem like
that big of a deal here. I hope your Halloween was fantastic! I Love you VERY
very much and hope the best to you this next week. You are in my heart and in
my prayers...and on my mind (DON'T BE STUPID!) HAHA! Keep Healthy! It’s the
time of getting sick and I know that I'm not around to make you sick but it
still happens. Now "I" can say be healthy! Be Happy and strong and
remember…you’re AWESOME!
Much love from:
ELDER ANREASEN
SMILE BIG!!!
