Letter #50

Well, this email is pretty late, because the library was closed on Monday, and we had zone conference ALL day yesterday.  But don't you worry your pretty little minds, because all of Aberdeen with be celebrating Kurt Cobain Day tomorrow, which is also, quite coincidently, my 1-year mark in the mission.

So last week, we had a pretty good time doing missionary things.  Like not celebrating Valentine's Day (that's a lie.  I passed out valentines at District Meeting) and tracting and such.  It didn't snow this week, so that made the wind and the cold that much more tolerable.

Well, this was the second to last zone conference that I will have with President Weaver, so that's a little bit crazy.  It was also the 5th of 9 on my mission, so I'm starting to hit a bunch of things that make me more than halfway done, not the least of which will be my third GC in about a month and a half.

Let's see... Last week was so long ago that I barely remember it.  Also, we are a little over 2 weeks into the transfer, and I just barely got a new planner yesterday, so I can't really go back and see what we did.  Here's a story though:  So in zone conference, we talked about prayer and the book of Mormon a lot (among other things.  These meetings are like 8 hours long), and so when we got back for some tracting, Elder Murillo prayed that we would knock into someone that we could teach the restoration to and give a book of Mormon to, and then we went out, and on the second house we knocked on, we found someone who fit that description.  And then we asked when we could come back, and he said he was flying out to LA this weekend, which is when he would be free next.  Also, he's probably someone that we need to turn over to the Spanish missionaries, even though he speaks good English.  But that was pretty cool anyway.

Oh, and the homeless guy I'm sitting next to at the library right now just asked me if I knew what WTF stood for.  There are a lot of experiences that you miss out on when you don't use public computers.

Okay, well, I hope you are all doing well!  I love you and miss you and all that. Bye
