Hello family,
I am feeling
good and fine!
This week was
an unofficial P-week. That is what some of the missionary's call the week of
transfers. It was full of making sure
that Elder Bailey didn't forget anything (which he did) and saying goodbye to
everyone that he knew. He is now in
Omaha and I have a new elder and his name is Elder Millett from St. George
Utah.
I have not
figured him out yet..??? When we are just talking to each other he
randomly switches from a Russian accent to a regular voice a lot and is very random
at times. The good thing is, that he is
a clean freak. He is cleaning everything he can touch, so I don't know
what to think yet. Today we went on a tour of Hornady and I took some
pictures and I will email them to you.
I have been
reading my patriarchal blessing a lot lately.
I actually read it all the time.
I am still finding things out that are meant to help me. I just read it
this morning and found something in it about my mission. What I’m supposed to
do with the people that I am teaching and my companions both junior and senior. I learned that I am to never destroy their
faith in me. I am to let them know that I am here to help
put their life's course back on track. Pretty
Awesome!!! I will work hard at making it be.
I am
recently reading in Genesis about my heritage in tribe of Manasseh and it is
very interesting. I learned that
Manasseh is a sort of bad kid and got his younger brother put first ahead of
him so that he got the bigger blessing. I
will read more and fill you in.
I recently got
my bike tires filled with foam so I will never get a flat ever again. It cost quite a bit but should even out in
the end in years from now when I still do not need to change a flat tire.
I did not
get your package yet, I think that it will come soon. We are going to a members house for the 4th
to watch fireworks at 5pm for dinner and firework fun.
We are still
teaching the family of four and are in hopes that we will get them all baptized
before I leave this area.
I love you
all and know I am doing great. Take care
and read your scriptures.
I have to
go…
Love Elder
Vance
