1 March 2010

Hey Mom!!!

Everything is going great!!!! Nope I didn't feel the earthquake...I'm on the other side of the continent. Yeah, I did see some of the news reports. Some members showed us and it was a pretty bad earthquake. It effected the city where my companion lives and he'll be going home this week cause he is finishing the mission. Also, three other elders in our zone are all from the same city, so it was quite a day.

Yeah, I remember mid-terms, I'm glad I don't have to deal with that anymore. . .Well atleast for another little while.

Um, I don't know who has asked you(about packages sent/ received), but I got a card from the Ballards and a card came from the Stevens, in the stake from a bunch of girls I used to hang out with. . . that was about four weeks ago and other than that . . . nope haven't gotten anything else.

I don't know what to tell you with Matt. . . with our less active families, I like to share the story of the 10 virgins cause when Christ comes. We don't know and when he comes there won't be any more time to prepare.

Yeah, time is flying by so fast and I am getting settled in good now. I think, I've finally gotten the ropes and it's a good thing cause my comp leaves on Sunday.

Oh, yeah later today we are going to see the Penguins---So that will be fun!!!!

Love

Hey Mom!!!

Sounds like a crazy week.

Yeah Matt has written about every other week. . . . I wouln't mind trying to put together the Camero. . . that is if it is still around.

It's good to hear the other kids are doin good!!!

This week we had lunch with one of our investigators and the husband is a member. Out of nowhere, he said. "I'm going to get divorced with my other wife and we are going to get married so that his wife now can get baptized and they can go to the temple." Talk about a surprise!!!

Anyways that was a pretty awesome experience this week!!!

Hope everything goes good this week

Love
Your Elder Johnny Berghout
