Hey Mom,
This week was good. Pretty much the same old same old. I saw that the boys are doing good. It was sad to hear about Paul Allen though, he was a good guy. I hope we play good this season for him.
Yeah transfer calls are next Sunday. It is basically guaranteed that I will be staying since Elder Christensen is leaving. My thought is I will probably be here until January, but who knows.
We have been trying to work with this lady who is the wife of one of the members in our ward. She just moved here from the Philippines about a month ago so we are trying to help her and her husband out.
Yeah we ended up getting the video finished. It turned out pretty good. I don't know if I will he able to send it because it it pretty long. I might try sharing it over Google. We will see.
Inspirational thing this week.... Ummm, President Torres had a mission wide conference with us and we watched it over Facebook. It was super good. President Torres is such an inspired guy and is so real about everything. He talked about how we need to step up our game and take everything to the next level.
Most difficult is just the fact that right now we aren't teaching a lot of people which makes for some long days. However we are trying to remedy that situation. Just need to find some people who are interested.
Food has been super good, as usual. Actually yesterday we ate with the French guy in our ward. He is super awesome. What is cool too is that his wife is from Hawaii so that is a very interesting couple. They are super cool though. We had some delicious pot roast.
The thought for this week... I was reading in that book you sent me and I really like how it talked about being Christlike means just doing the basic things, like being kind to everyone, having charity, studying the gospel, keeping the commandments and things like that. It isn't rocket science which I think makes sense because we know that the doctrine of Jesus Christ is a simple one.
Anyway that is pretty much all that is new, nothing much has been happening, besides the usual missionary work. The week was good and next week should be pretty interesting to see who replaces Elder Christensen.
Oh also since Wednesday was my year mark I burnt a shirt, included are pictures of that and a video I will share with you as well. Also we found this bench beside a lake one day while we were walking down the street so we did a mini photo-shoot in front of it.
That's pretty much it. Hope all is going well with you guys back at home.
Have a great week
Love
Elder Goodbaudy
