That is way awesome that Jaylen found her phone. That is the power of prayer right there. Ha ha. She could have survived with a regular phone though. I do no internet, games, movies, music. Just calls and texts ha ha. There is a rumor though about missionaries getting ipads or iphones that are locked out of certain functions. So we can report our numbers and do reports all digitally. The missionaries over in Japan already are doing that.

 

Ha ha I am glad I am not there to be in all those flowers to take pictures again ha ha. They were very pretty though. (He's talking about the bluebonnets in Texas in the spring.)

 

So I haven't gotten a package from you and I think it is because our Zone Leaders (who get the mail from the mission office) are incompetent. Put Food or Medicine on the side of any package that you send me and that way the mission office texts the zone leaders to come get it so I can get it faster, or actually get it.

 

So we got new ward missionaries in our ward and we have to train them on what to do in lessons. They follow our lead and testify basically to what we say. So we train them on the lessons, how to follow the spirit, and that silence is okay in a lesson.

 

I am filling my time wisely. A inactive member whose parents are actually the senior missionaries that check our apartment once a month owns a comic shop. I bought a card game there to play on p-days that's it. I didn't buy any comics because that is against the rules. Don't worry. I am going to be a lot better with purchases also. I'm not going to use my debit card at all this month. Wish me luck because it is a five monday month.

 

We went to general conference at the church. Me and Elder Austin pulled in a couch from the foyer and sat and watched it on that. We had some snacks also. My favorite talk was Elder Nelson's when he talked about the body's relationship with the Spirit. I thought that was really cool.

 

Love you guys thanks for everything!
