Hey everyone!
Butte is treating me well as always! My new companion and I are having much success in the work! We get along great! His name is Elder Barlow, and he is from Greenville, SC. We have two baptisms lined up for Saturday at 4:30! The Staman's daughters.(If you recall from earlier letters, the Stamans were my second and third baptisms!) It has been so exciting to see them grow!
We are teaching a new couple that are expecting a baby... TOMORROW! Marvin and Gus(Christina, but we call her Gus). They have had rough pasts, but Marvin knows the bible really well( he has read it maybe 50+ times!) He also helps us in our lessons with Gus! He knows all the principles of the gospel, and so we are trying to focus on them understanding the restoration and the need for the saving ordinances of the gospel! It has been exciting to be so well recieved by them, and Gus's mom would sat in on our last lesson(I went with member of the bishopric during splits, and now! SHES PRAYING ABOUT THE GOSPEL TOO!) I know all this isn't what you guys want to hear! I know that you all want to hear about what I'm doing, the crazy stories, the crazy people... well... there are PLENTY OF STORIES TO GO AROUND!
Heres one that I love!
One night walking home to the apartment, at about 8:30 on a friday, we were kind of upset that we were going back early and had no one to talk to. Our apartment is in the business district(fast food distict) of town. Walking by the Pizza Hut, the workers there were out having a smoke break. When we walked by, one of the guys yells "Pizza for Bibles!" just being a dufus, so... we got a Book of Mormon(we didn't have any Bibles at the time) and we gave it to him... and he gave us a Pineapple pizza(favorite!).
What else?
We went up into the mountains this morning at 4 A.M. and CHOPPED DOWN OUR CHRISTMAS TREES!!!! YEAH! We have an awesome apartment now! Christmas tree in our bedroom and christmas lights all over the ceiling in our apartment! We bake in the mornings and sing christmas music all day! Haha christmas time is the best out here!!!
I miss everyone and can't wait to hear from you all and see you all again, but until then... I'm preaching till I can't preach no more!
and one more thing....
I AM SO TIRED OF FOOD! THREE MEALS ON THANKSGIVING!!! TWO HuGe MeAlS in a row!!!! .... killin me... killin me
well! Everyone take care, and know that I'm ok! I got all the Elk and Deer meat any man could ever want! All the hunters keep us stocked up! I forgot what beef tastes like!
Love you all!
Take care!
