May 27, 2013

Well howdy y'all, it sounds like you’re having SO much fun with getting to visit with grandpa and cheybug getting to hang out with Nate.sounds like he is replacing me, at least that's what I heard from dad, haha, but that's OK.  He can replace me for 20 months then I get my spot back.  So is my room the grandbaby nursery yet? jk. It sounds like it was a very trying time for your friend Mary. I hope she is blessed and her family is blessed according to their faith, I know it would have been emotionally hard for me if it happened to us! I hope and know that Heavenly Father knows what they are going through and puts trials in our path to strengthen us and our faithfulness to him. I know without a shadow of a doubt that Jesus Christ suffered that same pain that her parents did and he knows what we go through. I am so grateful to know that even through trials there is always our Heavenly father looking out for us. I have experienced that this week.

This week has been a fun and eventful week. We have been teaching a bunch of new investigators that want to know more about what we believe. We helped move a family into the ward, an investigator family. We are getting to know them very well.  We have taught them a couple of times now.   Their name is the Mulinazzi family.  They are golden and I love them with all my heart.  They have strong desire to know the truth. They have lots of questions for us that I usually call President Keyes for because I don't know all the answers, but I learn so much from them every time we teach them. They have a family of 7.  Four out of the seven are old enough to take the lessons and they are very interested. I know that as long as I teach by the spirit they will have a testimony of what I am teaching them is true and will be baptized by someone holding that priesthood authority.

Cool things that happened this week…Let’s see,  we have 10 new investigators, I have a new companion. At the ward camp out, that had missionary theme, you bring an investigator with you and every quorum had a skit or testimony's to share.  It was a big Luci with a big roasted pig and taro which is very good food- my favorite so far. We were walking through the tall grass and I stepped on a baby deer. It got up and started licking my leg. We took it back to camp and got it milk and petted it! Fun times!

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE BATHROOM! Ha ha, well it got chickified! Wow, well it’s the girls bathroom now but it looks great! I love what you did with it and tall shower head so me and dad won’t hit our heads anymore! I need you to send out the car GPS with the charger or invest in one for me.  I need one!  It’s so hard finding addresses out here! I do not need garments yet probably in August- send me out some.  I'm good other than that just working hard. Missionary work is a full time thing- no resting time. I  love it! Money is just fine.  I haven't used my card ever yet so it’s all good.  Transfers were today.   We went and said goodbye to those going home.   We didn't get transferred and I'm glad.  I love my new companion. He is a Samoan elder from western Samoa, but he moved to Utah when he was 17.  His uncle and aunt live in Spanish fork by our stake center which is cool we are from the same place. He loves the culture out here and the ward loves him!   We get fed soooooooooooooooooo much it’s horrible- good thing we workout and play hard out here.

LOVE

Elder Davies
