Weekly Letter

well what up?

This week went pretty fast we had a leadership training on Wednesday with a big focus on Opening our mouths as it says in D&C so many times. Also using the Book of Mormon more and just how important it is to get investigators to church each week. I want all of you to ask yourselves the question; Why do I (meaning each of you) go to Church each week? See what you can come up with. I also loved General conference and The Family was definitely a popular topic. I really enjoyed Elder Holland's talk it gives you a new perspective on one of the parables in the New Testament that I never really thought of before. Now there are a lot of things to work on for me especially after someone slams the door I have to watch how I react so I don't leave any negative feelings toward our church with them. At our training President Woodbury set a goal for us to speak to at least 10 people each everyday outside of our normal tracting (knocking on doors) and member work. It really forces me to come out of my shell and to know how to approach just random people and begin a conversation. Elder Clawson still is struggling with it so it is almost up to me to speak with everyone so no one goes by without contact. With conference I think the Sunday sessions spoke to me just a little more than Saturday which is the opposite of the last conference, So I figure it must be different for everyone anyways. Well still a little slow on the finding here but trying to work out some new methods so we shall see in the up and coming weeks.

The reason why I'm so early today is because we get to go play basketball as a district today so I have to drive a ways away. I'm stoked and I have been thinking about maybe a last minute addition to the package, One of My Rally Beavas Shirts that would be cool. Other than that I can't think of too many things. I did send a letter to dad this week so hopefully it gets there today if not the mail lost it arrg.

Well I love all of you and miss you as well. Glad to hear you enjoyed your week in AZ, for the most part, Sorry to hear you got sick mom.
adios muchachos
