Hey Mom,
Wow that's crazy(kids going back to school), It seems like they just got out of school!!!
So did Matt go up (hunting), just him and Jared, or did they go up with Rick and Blake again?
I didn't know that Keon was doing Gymnastics, you should have him do hip hop and break dancing!!!

Dad hasn't wrote me yet. . .but yeah I'll take the job there until I can get something else. Will it be in the same part of distribution or another part?

Well this week was a long one, not much happened but on Monday and Tuesday, we went to do divisions with two different companionships and it rained and snowed both days and we weren't prepared ofr that cause it has been really nice before we left. . . It's okay though cause we did enter a shop to buy facturas--they are like little donuts--and we talked with a lady that was really awesome so we left there with a new investigator.

Then on Friday, we had an activity for the ward and not very many people came. We were really bumbed but the Bishop and one councelor and his family came and we taught about the Book of Mormon and it really helped them realize the importance of the Book of Mormon. . . even the Bishop got up in sacrament meeting and shared a bit and told all the members that they had really missed out those that didn't come to the activity. That was the first time I've seen a bishop be so sincere when he said something like that. . .You know how before , the ward was just really cold and the people really closed, we definetly got hte confidence of the Bishop with this activity and I think now, hopefully, we can transmit it to the members and get them all excited to work in sharing the gospel!!!! Hopefully we can really get it going in these last 6 weeks!!!!
I think that's just about all!!!
Love,
Elder Johnny Berghout
