Hello to everyone there. sounds like you have all had a busy good week. lots of good things happening. i hope that you are able to get things running there and get it all in the bin. after it is there i will ask how it looks...until then I'll just keep praying for you! :) Bailey your dress is sweet. it turned out so good. what dance are you wanting to go to in it? that will be so much fun for you. how have you been liking school? good classes, teachers, friends!? hope your enjoying getting back into the swing and schedule that comes along with school! keep safe. so ya, Luke was right about Nov. you said last week in your email that it was starting to cool off in the evenings there and hoping it would do the same down here...we had a really nice spring so every one is saying that it will be mid November before we start to see much under 95. pretty crazy. it hit 117 this week and it was so miserable! things are still going good though. :)
I am doing well and good on things here. just changed my set this morning and its kinda hurting me but we'll give it a while and it should get better. :) I have almost got your tape wrapped up so i can send it to you. so crazy how time is flying by. yesterday we finished Aug. planners and are now in September. so hard to believe how fast time fly's by. i just heard about all the east coast stuff yesterday at church. i had no idea what was going on. in all the prayers they were blessing the east coast...i had no idea what they were talking about. ya i figured that they are all liberals back there and need some prayers...but it still wasn't making sense to me until i asked and found out about the earthquake and hurricane. pretty crazy all the natural disasters going on at this time.
I hope that the weather will hold out for you for a little bit longer so you can get everything you need done there.
we had a really good week this week. we taught 17 investigator lessons and 3 of them were new investigators. we set 2 baptismal dates and talked to some sweet people. we taught Vona again. she is in her 70's and is ready and prepared to join the church. its really sweet to see a older lady who has a whole life full of habits be willing to sacrifice and make changes in her life to come closer to Christ. we also set a date with one of our new investigators. her name is Shannon and its a PMF. the boy friend is a LA member who is ready to come back. they some how got a hold of our WML and told him that he wants to come back to church and his G/F wants to learn more about the church. we taught them on Saturday night and set a date for her to get baptized on Oct 8th. then yesterday they came to all 3 hours of church. they loved it and really felt the spirit. we also had a family of investigators come to church. Wendy, Teressa, Raymond and Raul came for the first time and really loved it. so many sweet miracles.
Elder Ricks and I are still doing really well and having a blast. time is going by so fast and this next week is going to be really crazy. we have ZLC on Thursday and meetings on Wed and Friday so we will be staying busy with that alone, not including all of our area lessons. these seem to be the weeks that go by the fastest.
went on exchanges this week with elder Davis. it was so much fun to be with him. we get along really well and have started to become really good friends. so much fun to be able to serve in the same zone as him and get to know him better. awesome person and great missionary.
well i don't know what else to say or tell you, haha, i have told you a lot of the details on my tape that i am getting ready so i will get that off in the mail today or tomorrow hopefully so you can get it this week.
you are all in my prayers and i hope that you have a great, safe, effective week and get lots accomplished. thanks for all you do and your willingness to help me. if there is anything i need i'll let you know but i am well. be sure and keep cool in that 80 degree weather. it was 90 and cloudy on Sunday and we had our windows down and enjoying it until i looked down and seen that it was 91 and it made me sick to think that i am adapted to it. i am going to freeze my butt off back in ID. i love it here. i love being a missionary and seeing all the blessings. keep safe and have a great week.
Love
Elder Dalan Lerwill
