Hey Family, how is everything going? I hope really well with
work and summer break and the nice St. George heat. I’ve been doing good here
in cold Mercedes with my New Companion. His name is Elder Barker, he’s from Orem,
Utah. He’s pretty tall, about 6 '4 and really skinny. His call to fame in the
mission is his piano skills. He’s really good and he taught himself how to
play. It is nice having a comp from the states because we are always on the
same page. He’s super shy though. I’ve had to be the conversation starter with
a lot of investigators and members. Definitely working out my social skills, but
its fun and pretty easy. I just ask how the Uruguay soccer team is doing and
they go off for awhile.
Since Elder Barker has been here things have been a lot
better. I just feel like a real missionary now. With Elder Bolaños he had some
issues that would get in the way of our work. Things are better now. There are a
lot of Elders here in our district but we haven’t played soccer here in Mercedes
for awhile, kind of sad. It has been tough getting a long with them. Hopefully,
things will get better.
This Past week we found 3 new teenage girls to teach. Pretty
funny. Elder Barker says it’s because of my charm and good looks that they all
want to listen and take the lessons. That’s bolaso, so hopefully we can have
success with them. We also are teaching another young person, he’s 20, so we
are having success with young people, we just hope we can get them baptized.
Sounds like everyone had a lot of fun at youth conference. I
hope our ward is doing well.
Answers
1. I’m going to get 2 packages in the morning, the senior
couples in offices called me to tell me that. Elder and Sister Mess. They are
from St. George, they live right by desert hills. They say they are going to
call you guys when they come home in 2 weeks. We’ll see if that happens.
2. It was kind of tough sending a missionary home for
multiple reasons. 1. he ran out of money so I had to pay for a lot of things
for him. 2. They get trunky, but I learned from that experience to enjoy my
mission while I’m here, because Elder Bolaños said he’s going to miss it for
that reason.
3. I don’t think I need anything. You’ve already sent a lot
of packages. I’ll wait till after I see what’s in them to ask for something.
4. The mission is making a cook book for us. I’m good there.
You can always send pictures.
Questions: What happened in the NFL draft anything exciting?
How’s Lauren doing with summer life, not too boring I hope.
Mitt Romney updates, Christ Stewart. Have you guys done
anything to my room or stuff, because I know Butch’s family got rid a lot of
his stuff when he left. There is a Mormon tabernacle CD that I want from
grandma. It’s called greatest hits or something like that.
Well I’m doing well family, I’m happy to be working; I just
would like to see some more fruit from my labors. I’m not discouraged it just
makes me want to work more.
Love you family, I pray for you....a lot. Let me know if you
guys need anything
Love Elder Webster
