Week 5

     So remember last week when I told y'all that I wrecked my bike trying to miss a dog? Well the other day, I swerved in front of my companion and she ran into my back tire, causing us both to fall on our faces! So that's fall #2....looks like I'm on a roll! Now my bike has a crooked tire, so an older lady is over now fixing it. :)
     So anyways we had to walk to the church from our apartment, not too far, but some fellar started saying, "call me!". We were like, "uh, no thanks!", then he continued on how beautiful we were. Yeah it was rather creepy.
     I am doing great, I've met so many people already, it's great. I've even met some crazies. So let me tell you, there are some crazy people here in my particular area. A lot are good, but some are just I don't even know.         Anyways, I am getting better at teaching a lesson....usually I just observe and let my companion do all the talking, but I get these huge urges to share my personal experience (obviously not really personal).

     Last night we had a lesson with a less active and she is doing so good. She is coming to church and keeping her commitments. and at some point in the lesson I had the thought run through my head....that thought being the Holy Ghost, but it said "This is why you are here." And I really needed that, I have been doing what I'm suppose to and been as obedient as possible but I just still had my doubts if I really had the ability to do this. And I know that Heavenly Father knew that I really needed to hear that. I taught a lesson today, my companion couldn't get a word in because I did most of the teaching, but that went really well too. She was so nice and sweet, she even said she believes Joseph Smith to be a prophet...but she is fixing to move to Texas, which is depressing, but still there are plenty of people to teach. 

     So yesterday we were driving to The San Xazier Mission thing (some Catholic thing they let tourists visit) and we passed some lady on the street. She was shooting birds and dancing and acting crazy...that just lets you visualize the area here....but I really enjoy it, it gives me plenty of stories, that's for sure. It is hot, but not to the point where it is unbearable.
      I have been putting my direct address as a return address on the envelopes that I've been sending, but when people write me it is best to send it to the mission home, that way when I transfer my mail won't get sent to the wrong area....so tell everyone to send them to this address:

Arizona Tucson Mission

939 West Chapala Drive

Tucson, Arizona 85704

     And OH YEAH guess what! There is a temple in my mission...it is really small so I've heard, but about every 4 months we will get to go there as a zone. So that is really exciting!  It's the Gila Valley Temple, as a matter of fact, we will be going there sometime this month.
     Did I mention that in my ward there is an Elder from Georgia? How cool is that, and I think we are the only ones in the mission, and we ended up in the same ward...SO cool. So anyways, that's about all that's going on over here. :)
     I love getting your letters. Seriously, send me all you want. I'm trying to write everyone back as soon as I can, but sometimes I may forget, and if I do, just tell everyone to write me again.

Write meeeeee!

Love all y'all and miss y'all.      :)
