July 11, 2011

Hello.
Well thanks for the email. and the reminder that it is coming to an end. Its kind of wierd. I dont have the feeling that i am going home. I go through everyday trying to make it better than the last. I talk to every person that i see and its just normal. I am just a missionary. that is life. I cant imagine life any different than just teaching and committing to baptism and serving. Its going to be weird for sure. I think. I have no idea what normal life is like. Work, School, ect. i just cant seem to imagine it. hmmm. oh well.
The week went great this week. Elder Reschke and I have been tearing it up. We found an awesome family, Family Dos Santos. they are from Angola Where they speak portuguese. The husband is already a member, what are the chances of that. But his wife is not. tHey have three beautiful daughters one is 6 months the other is 2 years old and the last one is 6. They are all so funny. We had a good time. The wife wants to be baptized. So ELder Reschke will continue the work there. Im excited to see you all as well. Hope you haave a great week till thrusday. When you go to this appointment with the councilor could you see if i could get into a german class or if i could test out of german so that i could get credit for it. Thats kind of lame that i didnt get my scholarship. thats not too cool. but whatever. i love you all and will see you later. Bis später.

Sei Gegrüsst!!!!1
Wonderful family of mine.
Thanks for writing me. thank you for all that you do. The new mission president has come to the mission. President Miles and Sister Miles from Bountiful Utah are so cool. they are absolutely great. I am however going to miss president and sister condie. this church is the greatest how callings work president condie was at the beginning of this week a Mission President and next week he could be playing the Organ in his home ward for the Primary or he could be called as a member of the seventy. I would probably guess the latter because of the goodness of his heart and the diligence with which he served his mission. What a great and inspiratory man. What a great opportunity i have also to get to know and work with a new mission president. I get to learn from the spiritual giants. A missionary is the greatest thing to be. You should be excited to be a missionary one day. I cant wait either. being a missionary without transfers or having to change companions. That would be the greatest.
Which is exactly the opposite of what i have been doing. for this week i was in Interlaken on monday then i went to Dornbirn which was great. Then the assistents had planned that i would go and do exchanges in the stuttgart zone for the last two weeks of my mission but then a problem came up where a missionary had to unexpectedly leave the mission. Its so sad to experience thta, to see what happens to some misssionaries. So now i am in Rosenheim covering his spot. I get to work with Elder Reschke. He is a great missionary. We are in a wonderful city and an awesome apartment. Its so cool we've even got cold water. Thats it. So every morning has been an amazingly refreshing cold shower.
We are working hard. I am getting pretty tired. but its the best feeling in the world. Nothing better.
You can tell spencer that he doesnt have to come to meet me. you should also tell him that he needs a motorcycle permit on his driving licencse to drive it. so he can go ahead and try to pound me. Friday sounds great for the temple. I miss the temple.
well not much to say. I wanted to ask how much i have in my account so that i can know what i can buy to bring home. Plus my suit that i was wearing on my traveling missionary times is destroyed. I wore holes through the knees and the butt. So i have one suit left and its pretty tattered as well. let me know.
That is really cool that you want to be a missionary. There is a quote hanging in the mission office about the word missionary it says: "Missionary: (noun) someone who leaves his or her family for two years, so that others can be with thiers for Eternity". Its true. I love seeing the Gospel change the mindsets of families to eternal.
HAve a good one.

Those pictures are from Interlaken. most beautiful place on earth. ANy how i almost forgot to write you. i totally forgot about class registration. My comp had to remind me. please if you can, i know you are busy and you had a ton to do at youth conference with cooking but if it wouldnt be so hard you could sign me up for classes. Talk to the counselor if you can and maybe just get me classes that will work towards my major also that will help me get done with my undergraduates. i hope its not too late. thanks mom.
