Nooo way.....the broncos lost :( I don't know if you all
remember, but I was a big broncos fan when I was in elementary school and
jr. high. I'll admit I did start giving up on them. Also I've always
been a Colts fan with Payton Manning and now that he is on the broncos
it's even more of a reason. That's too bad. Well sounds like everyone is
busy, but doing well. Thanks for letting me know how things are going.
Mom thanks for letting me know the news about Ashley and Sean....wow
that was fast!! HAHA. I remember when I got the wedding announcement not
too long ago. Good for them. So would their kid be a niece or nephew of
mine, or does that not count because she is my cousin? Tyler says he is
finally seriously looking for the wife, so maybe someday I'll get some
nieces or nephews. I'm glad to hear that Carson is doing well on his
mission. Thanks for telling me that they said hi and tell em hi for me
when you get a chance. That was weird news when you told me that Cassidy
is already married. I guess that's the new thing huh?...getting
married. It's about time someone went boarding this year. Tell the
"flying red tomato" hi for me haha. I wish I was there to go with em.
Next season should be good...let's hope. Well I did find out that the Winter Olympics start soon. You'll have to tape it for me or something.
That's cool that Grandpa Smith is going to be a great great grandpa now!
Is he going for the big 100 years yet? haha dad I can just picture you
getting inpatient with a bunch of 5 year olds. It's your future as a
grandpa coming up here pretty quick! I got a kick out of the picture
with Kit. Jazzi is depressed in the background like she's been forgotten
about hahaha. Wait so the stake pres already asked me to talk in other
wards?? Isn't he going to be released before I get home? That's what
bishop told me. Man I'm going to leave with a new mission pres. and get
home to a new stake pres.
Anyway this week went really well, and SUPER fast.
We had two elders from a different zone at our house for a few days
visiting the hospital. We did divisions in our area so that we could go
to more appointments at the same time. On Thursday we had a all day long
leadership meeting and the very next day on Friday we had a all day
long mission council. We ended Friday and Saturday in divisions with
elders from the zone. We were able to teach a bunch of investigators, 7
went to church yesterday, we found like 8 new ones, and yeah. It's
going well. We just need to focus on putting baptismal dates with a
bunch of them. We have at least made the invitation to most all of them
so far. Tomorrow we have the zone meeting. I'm not sure if you guys know
what a zone meeting is, but basically it's a training meeting that we
do for the zone. We transmit all that we learned from Pres. in the
council and we teach also according to the needs of the zone. Zone
conference is different because pres. and his wife both train and teach
along with us and it's longer. Anyway I hope that goes well. There are
several families that we are teaching right now. Most a part member
families. I really want to see them unite and make the decision to get
baptized.
Well after fasting on Sunday
and before we went to eat lunch, I was studying my patriarchal blessing
and my goals that I've made for this year. I was reflecting on the
perspective on our Father in Heaven and when He wants me to achieve in
this life. We all have divine potential and a divine destination. We
determine our destiny as said by our dear Prophet. I know it's true. The
world is constantly trying to gain our attention and to put us down
making us feel like we don't have much worth or that we're just not good
enough. You all need to read the first presidency message of the month
of January with this thought in mind. PUT YOUR GOALS HIGH. We can't be
conformists. "if we want to be great, we have to do the things that the
greats do." Thanks for everything you all do. Remember through Christ
all things are possible. Love you guys!
