Likewise it is good to hear fro you as well. Hooray, I havent gotten any letters here yet haha so it will be nice to get some now. Sorri i havent written a letter yet, I did start one last week, but i havent had time to finish it yet. We've been pretty busy and dont really have that much time to write. Yes I smiled haha I was happy to be there. President Christison is so awesome, he is very inspired. I feel very privelaged and blessed to have him as my mission president even if it is just until this summer when we get a new one. there was a little snow in denver not a lot when i got there. But Fruita is a really small town, I think the population is about ten thousand, and its actually a ways away from denver, it is close to the utah border, and its in a valley surrounded by mountains. but its like a thousand feet or so lower in elevation than denver is. Apparently Provo is only like a three hour drive away or something like that haha. But yeah we tract a lot of houses mostly, there are a few apartments, but it really like 98% houses. We actually cover two wards, Fruita First and Third, and there are four wards in this small town haha, its really cool to see how many members there are tho in such a small town. Sounds like u had a pretty full weekend. How did the tiling go? And bytheway Im really sorry I didnt clean my room up all the way b4 I left, but i really appreciate you cleaning it up the rest of the way. THANK YOU! Did u find any of those little plastic inserts that go in the collars of my shirts? cause i only have four, and two of them are bent so i really only use two of them. If u found some please mail them to me, thank you, also I need my dmv driving record if I am to have driving privelages later on during my mission, but right now, the area we cover doesnt have a car for the missionaries, so we just ride bikes or walk everywhere. Yes Its Elder Rambo, and Elder Shwarzenegger haha but no Chuck norris Jokes are always appropriate haha no im just kidding. Hey I got a letter from Hannah about her getting a job offer, that is really cool. How did the interview go for Daniel in Corvallis tho? You should tell daniel to write me please! and a normal letter, because i have even less time to email then write other letters. Yeah I know that scripture, and I fasted last sunday that we might be able to reach our goal that we have for investigators to have six baptisms by next transfer, and we have seceral investigators so it is a very possible goal, but they need to feel the holy Ghost and have a desire to be baptized, but they also need to come to church atleast twice b4 they are baptized, and they seem to have a little trouble coming so far. But we have taught a few this past week. Last thursday was awesome. We were going to teach an investigator named Micky, she is like in her late 30's or early 40's and her busband was going to be at work so we bneeded a member to come with us, and We got sister Hanson to come after Elder Rambo accidently called her instead of another sister he was trying to call but she came with us. And Her and Micky became like instantly friends it was really cool, and Sister Hanson shared her testimony with her about the plan of salvation and it was really cool. Micky had prayed about the book of Mormon and Joseph Smith and she said she felt the Holy Ghost. She also told us how she had been doing family history research and was finding out that like all her family was Mormon accept for her and she was wondering why she wasnt Mormon, and she saw the Missionaries walking one day and she wanted to come and ask questions, but she decided she would just pray that The missionaries would come to her house, and a couple days later they did. And It was really awesome to be apart of this, I really felt the spirit when we taught her, and she is really interested, it is so cool, It felt so amazing, I love this work! It is Marvelous. The next challenge tho will be getting her Husband and her Fifteen year old son to hear the gospel. Thank you so much for your support!
