51 here we come...

How was everyones week? mine was good thanks for asking it was pretty normal we had a cool experience though there is a less active in our area with m.s. so she is pretty much bedridden and her days are sometimes good and others she is really sick but she loves the book of mormon and we go around weekly and read to her and this week was cool cause she was quite tired but she wanted us to read so we read for an hour with her and it was cool how peaceful she was when we would read and everyone once in a while we would think that she was sleeping but then she would give a little smile or say keep reading please but its always tough to say goodbye to her cause she loves the visits and it always makes her happy then we we leave she seems sad i really enjoy her visits and we have met a few people from contacting this week which was also very good i love talking to people i still get nervous sometimes when i see people but once i say hello i love just chatting and talking about the gospel its great. thats about it for this week though and we helped someone move this morning which is always good i like getting to do so physical labor every now and again along with the spiritual work. So whats new in everyone's life how are the aunts uncles cousins and greandparents doing? good i hope has school started back up now? I hope all is well and that everyone has a good week. remember the church is true and the book is blue.......and black and sometimes red but its always the same gospel in it. love you all KIA KAHA stand strong and tall Love Elder Dalton

50 Weeks!!

Hello again this week was about the same as any other except we got to go to the temple which was great cause i hadn't been since last nov so it had been ages but i love the temple its always so peaceful and relaxing its the best. as for the rest of the week it was just normal missionary work but we met a lady named helen on the street the other day and she was really friendly and said we could come and teach her more it was really cool who knows if it'll progress much but it was nice to have someone nice that was willing to talk with us cause it had been awhile since that had happened so it was awesome to meet her. thats about it for my week though how was everyone elses week? sorry its short love you guys thanks for everything love Elder Dalton

Week 49! One year down, One to go!

so hello there once again this was a good week not to different then any other though but i did get to see the beach this week. Cause this week i also got to conduct my first baptismal interview which was pretty cool and then we were taking the elders home and they live right next to the ocean so we drove down and took some pictures it was cool but it was kinda a chilly day. that was about it for this weeks news except yesterday at church the missionaries that live in the same flat as us had a cool experience myself and my companion were talking to some members and the other two elders were just waiting outside when a man walked up to them and asked how to become a member of the church and they were kinda shocked but they just said come in and we'll tell you so they went and had a lesson with him and set a baptismal date with him so that was really cool. its crazy how god works sometimes but its amazing to see it happen. so how was this week for everyone else? i hope it was great. always remember that the church is true and the gospel is the only way to find true everlasting happiness and the scriptures are here to help us through our struggles. thanks for everything Love Elder Dalton
