Teaching and a New Comp - Elder Howlett

Hello everybody. 

This week's email is going to be very very short and I don't know if I'll answer all of your questions but i'll try. 

last week was pretty good. We found a few new investigators. Some people we found were from Burundi. We  also are planning on starting a free  family history class at the library and we found a new investigator named Debra telling her about that. 

We taught a former Lds man named Randy and his wife and  2 year old kid, Benjamin. That went well.

Unfortunately we weren't able to teach Hejin, Dave and Andrew. But we did meet with Nick, who is YSA age. We will probably send him to the YSA elders to teach so he can get more fellowship. 

Nothing too crazy happened this week. On the 4th of July we participated in the annual Parley P. Pratt run (now the Freedom run to include other denominations). I didn't run in it and instead flipped 100s of pancakes. 

Thank you for sending me the package Mom! I loved the indoors smores! Those are my fave. 

Yesterday was transfers and i got my new companion Elder Howlett from Las Vegas. We are going to do some good work together!

Remember that this month for developing Charity is "is not puffed up." So don't be prideful at all. 

"It is the comparison that makes you proud; the pleasure of being a above the rest. once the element of competition is gone, pride is gone."
--C.S. Lewis

So people let's not be prideful becasue if you can eliminate that then you will eliminate all evil from within you. Easier said than done, but possible by the grace of Jesus Christ. 

I love you all! sorry I probably didn't answer like any of your questions. We usually don't email on wednesdays.

Have a good week!
