You are ALL amazing!!! Thank you for all the packages and letters! Florida is awesome! Can you believe I've been gone for 2 months already! CRA CRA! Haha! We went to Wild Florida the other day! What a party! I got an alligator head! Cool stuff! And a dope hat! The mission life is different, but fun! I am always tired! Seriously, like all the time! Everyone loves the missionaries! About 10 different times someone has stopped us and talked to us! They are almost always members from out of town! Haha! Because of where we are we have people from out of town like every week! There are members coming from all over the place! Mostly from Utah! Hahaha- it's fun! They all love the missionaries!

I have given like 10 priesthood blessings, but I had a really cool experie3nce with one. One of our investigators was sick and wanted a blessing. So we gave her one, I pronounced the blessing and in it I said that she would heal and that she would find a job. After the blessing I was freaking out because I just said it and I didn't know if she had a job or not! I didn't think that she did but I didn't know. When she came to church that following Sunday we found out that she was feeling way better and that she got a job interview the coming week! Crazy huh? I can't even believe it! I felt amazing that it actually worked! A HUGE tender mercy!

Anyway, Utah Utes are kickin' trash from what I hear! Good for them! PLEASE keep me updated on Oregon! It means the world! How is everyone back home? Any news? How is Kota? Anyway, I love you all! You all are the best! Keep doing the right things! Remember C.P.R- church, pray, read the scriptures! The Lord will bless you! Remember the church is true and the book is blue!

Love you all!

Which is great!! We hope they continue along and get baptized, but well see!! How's everyone doing back home?? Good I hope?? Hows work going for you?!! I will share a cool miracle I saw this week!! We were supposed to see this guy but he fell through. We didn't know what to do so we prayed. The spirit told us to keep finding or knock doors. We turned the corner on to the street and there was this guy in the middle of the street looking for something. He looked crazy and I didn't know what to think! We pulled over and got out and helped him look for his glasses (as we came to find out)!! His name was Timmy! As we started to talk to him we came to find out that he had been praying for 3 months for God back in his life!! We also found out that his family was having problems and that he needed help!! It was great!! We talked to him and we are gonna start teaching him!! Exciting times!! Any who I love you Dad and I pray for you!! You are awesome!! Keep doing the work back home and go see "Meet the Mormon's"!! Take Grandma and Grandpa because I couldn't stop thinking about them watching it!!!!! They will love it!! Anyways love you Daddio!!!!!!!!!!!!
