FAMILY

So this week, which is typically a good long week went really good. Today we got our transfer emails........... And I am getting transferred to British Columbia. We cover a small part of the east side of BC. I am going to be a Zone Leader out there. My new companions name is Elder Spurlock. We will see how it goes... I am excited to be able to go to BC. It is a lot warmer on that side of the Border...

This will be a good opportunity to get running every morning and lose a little bit of weight that I put on! hahah Good to go. I have also started a diet. No Candy nor dessert.. Done with that..

Hey before I forget, I was going to say for the mothers day call. Holly is there any chance that you will be going up to Provo for that? It would be a lot easier for the Phone call home. Which is supposed to be kept to 45 minutes.. So if everyone is there it is just a lot easier to keep it as close to 45 minutes as I can! You know?? Let me know what is going to happen...

This week has been a good one. Lots of people cancelling on us but it was good to push us to the next level.. It was a good week to finish off strong in the area...

How sweet was General Conference? It was like the sweetest thing ever. I loved it. So awesome. Every session was a spiritual feast. My favorite was Priesthood session though. I don't ever remember feeling the spirit that strong for that long. It was amazing. I loved it. I learned so many new things it was awesome.. I went with 6 questions and every single one of them got answered super clearly.. It was good to have that. Instead of going to conference to listen, I went to conference searching. Hence searching the scriptures instead of reading them.. But it was really exciting to have those answers..

I am going to get off so that another missionary can get on and email his family. But I love you all and

miss you..

Love Elder Dastrup

ps Mom and Dad I am thinking about your Hawaiian Vacation like every day.... Have fun!

Stay Classy
