Dear Mother and Fatha,

That's really cool to what you learned from Elder
Evans. At first I thought you were talking about Jordan Evans and so I was confuzzled.
I've never thought of it that way so I will have to review that.

Well this last week has been a long one. I can't remember a whole lot since I got out of the habit of writing in my journal everyday. On Tuesday we went to Provo for the trainers meeting. Since I wasn't being a trainer I went with some other missionaries around BYU 

campus contacting. We passed out a lot of cards to people and talked for a while with this RM. He has fallen away from the church and says it's because of church history and stuff   After talking with him for a while he said he would think about talking to his wife to meet with missionaries again so that was kinda cool. I won't ever know what'll happen though since I'll never see him again.
My last day in Eagle Mountain we met with brother Tisdale. He went a whole week without chewing so now he is tobacco free! He and his wife can now start preparing for the temple.
I kind of miss that place but now I am serving in Leeha! (Lehi). Everyone that we are teaching right now is 9 years old basically, and people rarely answer their
door until after 5pm. We are serving in the western portion of Lehi and so unfortunately Blender Bottle is not in my area. But it is in my district so maybe I'll see Ben sometime unless he quit that job! I can't remember if he did.
We did get quite a few referrals this week that we will stop by soon.
We have 2 kids on date for Baptism.
I am in a trio..again! My follow-up trainer is Elder Spiers. He is a really good missionary. I like him a lot. He's from
 he South. Mississipp. Whenever people ask me where I'm from I tell them in my southern accent I'm from the south too....south Jordan!!!!
That's the thing that I don't like about being in a   new area though because I have to introduce to everyone where I'm from and they are like "WHAT? YOur not being serious! I've never heard of that before."And
 hen they have  to know WHY. It's annoying dag gum. 
My other companion elder brown  is from Texas. 
 He's funny. 
We had a few good experiences this week. My first day was kind of tough adjusting. I wasn't very
comfortable teaching people. I'm still kind of not but its getting better.  Elder Spiers is pushing me lot more than elder Fenton which is good. I'm still
kind of apprehensive.
I did however strike up a conversation about families
with a guy with a bushy brown beard from Idaho named  Sam. He said we could stop
by later in the week if we wanted to. On my first day we taught the mcBride family the restoration. They are part-member. I was kind of in a funk for most the lesson until It got to the part of the restoration
and it was my turn to speak. I got really emotionalfor some reason and the guy and his wife who is not a member did also. I felt really embarrassed because I was all weepy and could hardly even speak. But I guess    elder Spiers said it went really well. I don't know.
We had a really good dinner lesson this week as well  with a family.
We taught the doctrine of Christ (lesson 3)and related it to when Peter walks on the water.. It was cool. We showed the bible video. We like to do that a lot in this mission. We show "Because he lives" and "Because
of Him" a lot to people to try to get in their homes. Well right now we are playing a board game at the gamers Inn right now. It's actually kind of fun I guess.

Well I gotta go. See yall later.
