Dalan's E-Mail Oct. 12, 2010 Doing so good, so Proud of him!

Hello hello! wow sounds like things are busy and going well there! :) so good to hear that you are starting to grain gone. dont get to itchy in all the wonderful grain dust dad! ;) haha, thats way good you can get that process going! how are things going with the insurance adj?! hope that all works out the best it can.


sounds like you had a good time at lagoon and thanks for the great pics! :) hopefully the weather has made its annual change, it sure has here! it has been getting into the low 30's at night fairly often! we will probley be getting a car next transfer because every one is saying snow soon! i am hoping like crazy i get to stay for one more transfer! i want to see some snow so much! haha, also we are going to have such a amazing transfer coming up! we have 5 bap scheduled for the next 6 weeks! :) seeing so many miracles! but what ever happens it will be for the best...but if i have any say in the matter, i want to stay in snowflake! :) we get transfer news Saturday night, so we'll see!? :)

this morning has been great! we got to go through the temple at 8 then after that we went to Heber for our zone activity! we played dodgeball with tennis balls! it was way intense and i am so sore! haha

so this week we got a referal for some one in 4th ward and we contacted then yesterday and they are so golden, they invited us back that night at 5 (which was a miracle that we even had any time open cause we are so booked) and so we came back and taught them, the parents are less active members and they have a 17 year old daughter who wants to be baptised! we taught her about the restoration and set a bap date with her for Nov. 6th! so exciting! last week we found 3 new inv. and they are all pretty solid! things are going so well here and the work is moving so fast!

I am getting a package put together with my shoes in it and a few other things that i dont really need or i want to send to ya so they dont break between transfers! so be looking for that some time this week. also there are somethings in it for moms birthday!!! happy day:) haha, i really hope that you have agood one and do something fun! :)

Bailey i am so excited for you to go to the dance! sounds like you are getting everything put together and organized! :) that will be a blast for you! Remember, "safety in Numbers" ;) haha, have a good time and enjoy it!

Nathan is doing really well. ya its crazy , he is about done and that just blows my mind! goes by so fast! and can you believe that James hits his year mark in Dec!!!!! that is so crazy, it seemed that right after he left, Luke left, then i did, its so insane how time goes by!

i am not sure what else is going on here that is new and exciting besides missionary work, which is always exciting, haha, but we are teaching lots of people, staying busy thats for sure! thanks for all the support from home and every one there. means a lot and defently helps!! Elder Edwards is doing well, he is really stuggling with his matters at home, which is understandable, but its really hard for him to stay focused! he hasn't caught the full vision of a mission yet and still dreads going out and work hard every day, but that will change at about 4 months! :) its just getting to there that is the hardest... i think haha! i am so glad i am where i am now and doing the things that i am doing!

its weird how your perspective changes, you come to love those people that you serve, being transferred out of this area will feel like leaving home again, maybe not quite so emotional, but that feeling of leaving people you love is hard! but its all a growing experience, and one thing that i have learned it that you don't realize how you have changed or grown till its over with then you can look back and see what you have accomplished, so there is no use in complaining, it does no good and only hinders your growth, take what the Lord gives you and run with it! :)

I love you all so much. you help me get through the trails in life and you always have, so thank you so much! keep up the good work, be safe, and keep in touch! :) i love and miss you all, take care and have a wonderful evening, night, day, week, ;) haha, your always in my prayers!

Love,

Elder Dalan Lerwill
