Another good week come and gone. This was definitely better than last week!
First off to answer your question mom, no I haven't gotten the package yet. But we have meetings tomorrow in Lethbridge and I will be getting Mail then. So If they are stale, they are stale! haha
This week was really good for us to just get to work in our own area though... We didn't have to go anywhere. We had some really good things happen too 
..
We met with Alex, a recent convert from this area, and he brought his friend Park.. Park is here going to school from South Korea. He has been here 10 days. His english is going ok, that is what he is here for. We met with him one time, on saturday, invite him to be baptized on the 30th of this month, 2 weeks from the time we met him. He came to church yesterday and we taught him there as well. It all went really good. It was exciting to see. He is loving it. As for the bad news, Elizabeth pushed her date back to the 30th. She is just super busy with everything. So hopefully all goes well. We haven't been able to teach her in about a week and a half, and that is not a good sign. But we have faith that she is doing good. She has lots of unneeded stress in her life. Definitely all of you can pray for her. That would be really appreciated.
This week we will not have much time to work in our area. Tonight we are going into Lethbridge for Leadership training meetings, we will be there all day tuesday then on Wednesday we are going to come back and go on Splits in Sparwood with those Elders. So we will have from thursday on. But I think this will be the last time this transfer that it will be like this. Gotta love the road trips.
Mom and Dad are you in Alaska right now? When are you all going to Lake Powell? I haven't heard anything about that. And I keep seeing boats up here and that is like all I can think about. I miss that place, but still another year before I will be there. We should all go like 5 times next year. To make up for the 2 years that I missed.
Elder Gelwix and I are still doing really good. We kind of have a hard time helping 1 of the companionships in our zone. Most are doing pretty well. luckily we have some other really good elders in the zone and we don't have to babysit. One of the District Leaders in the zone (Elder Harris) actually played basketball at Timpanogas... We didn't like eachother on the court. But I love the kid out here. He is a really good missionary too. It makes it a lot easier to have those types of missionaries around you. I give him a hard time lots that we beat him our senior year. He is a good kid.
There is another Elder In our zone that is brand new. Elder Northrup, he is a good kid. He is about 4 foot 7 and weighs probably like 75-80 pounds. But he has a testimony of a giant. He has already grown spiritually and mentally a ton since he has been out here.
Well today for p-day we are going to go play some dodgeball and then go to a tumbling gym. mainly just cause the people that invited us are going to buy us pizza.
oh yeah before I leave, other good news.... yesterday I weighed myself and I weigh about 169, which by the way, is 3 pounds less than what I came out at... I will be coming home at 160. Just you all watch! Especially you Sommer which said I would weigh 205......
Love you all
