Long Zone Conference

Hey everyone!
This past week was pretty good. We had zone conference on friday. Which was very long! We had to be there at 7 am and it went until about 6:30 pm. It was sweet though, we watched a movie, Joseph Smith: The Prophet of the Restoration. It just got released from the Legacy theater and its awesome. I also got my package that yall sent. Thanks a bunch for the ties, socks, pants, and the candy! Also the drawings from the kids, i liked those as well. So, the other day we set a baptismal date with a guy named Hedrick. He has already been reading the book of mormon because he is the nieghbor of a member. He has some crazy stories. For instance recently, he was shot and he showed us his gun wound and everything. Nuts! But thats pretty much what has been going on here. Thanks for researching the stuff about BYU for me. I was thinking of doing pre med, but i heard from a member here that bio-med is supposedly better because if you dont get into a med school, you can always do something else. But Pre-med you dont have anything to fall back on. So maybe check out ways that i could get into a med school. That doesnt necessarily have to be Pre-med. As for the vacation when i get back, DL would be great, that Harry Potter thing looks sweet as well, i have also been thinking about coming back to Puerto Rico as well. Do some research on that for me.
Sounds like everyone is doing well and Aubrey it sounds like your having fun in Utah! Happy Birthday Heather! Mom i cant wait for the fudge at christmas time. I love yall a bunch!

We're still working in 2 areas

Hey everyone,
Thanks for the emails. This past week was alright. The only bad part is that i have a cold. Yes, i am still district leader. We're still working in 2 areas. We have just been trying to learn the other one so that we can know where stuff is there. I think we will have a lot more success there than here in Salinas. We dont really have any good investigators. Thats been the problem lately. We did however get a few refferals from members, that we will be contacting soon. Just praying that theyre good ones. I dont have the package yet. Im hoping i will get it at zone conference on Friday. If you're wondering what to send me for christmas, a shoe polish kit would be nice, one with brushes and brown and black polish. My shoes could use that! And, Mom, if it is possilbe that you can send me some of the fudge that you make? Also, Dad, did you ever fix my checking account card? Let me know whats up with that. Congrats Aubrey on moving to Zion. Amber, can we work on trying to get me transfered to BYU? Just check out what needs to be done and let me know. Thanks everyone for the emails and all your support! I love yall so much! Keep me updated.

We have just been trying to learn the other one so that we can know where stuff is there. I think we will have a lot more success there than here in Salinas. We don't really have any good investigators. That's been the problem lately. We did however get a few referrals from members, that we will be contacting soon. Just praying that they're good ones.

In our apt at 7 for Halloween!

Hey everyone!
Thanks for the emails and the pics of Halloween. Everyone is growing up! Sounds like it was a lot of fun. That's funny that Brandon was a facebook page! Ha ha. On Halloween here, we had to be in our apartment at 7. Because it gets dangerous. So, we didnt actually move apartments right now we just have 2 of them. We're just keeping the other one open until the mission puts missionaries over there again. The baptism on sunday was good. I attached some pics of it. As of right now we dont have very many investigators. But we do have some potentials. Im pretty sure i will be able to use skype on christmas but we do have a different mission president now so who knows. Its coming up fast isnt it?! As for the college thing. I dont know what my GPA ended up as, but i dont think it was that good. It would be sweet to go to the Y, but i dont know if i would get accepted. But yall can check that stuff out for me. Just give me the options. Thanks for the help, i love yall a bunch! Update me on stuff next week!

!Traslados!

Hey everyone,
Today we had transfers. My district was dissolved as well as another district in the zone. Now the zone will have only 2 districts. Im still in Salinas, but might be working in Guayama as well. The elders that were there both left so now its just me and my same companion in Salinas. I dont know if im still district leader, i should find out soon. So we inherited another apartment, we might spend a few days there during the week so that we can work in the other area. I should find out the details soon. That is a funny story of the primary kid throwing up during the program. Our baptism on sunday was postponed for this upcoming sunday. My companion will be doing the ordinance. Well, Brandon it sounds like DC was a blast! Also, if you could start searching for schools with a pre-med program that would be sweet. And let me know when the applications need to be in and when the semester would start. Another thing, it probably would be good to look for some scholarships that i could apply for as well. Let me know what comes up. I love you all a bunch!
