Esperanza

I leave on Monday, dosn't that seem weird to you? "Yes". Ya it does to me too! Do you think I'm ready? "Well duh yur ready"! Oh why thank you.

So I relized something. "What". Hold on, I'll tell you. Do you know what the word Esperanza means? "no, what?" It means hope. This gospel is FULL OF HOPE! Hope of where we came from, hope of why we are here, hope, hope of where we go after we die, hope that we are not alone in this crazzzzy world, hope that we have a Father in Heaven and His son Jesus Christ who love us more than our little brains can comprehend, hope that when a family member passes that we will see them again, hope that one day we will have perfect bodies with no limits and no mortal wear and tear, hope that even though life gets pretty hard sometimes that "there are always flowers for those who want to see them" - life is good, hope that you will be ok., "I mean hope, sounds like a lot of hope in the church and in the Gospel of Jesus Christ". Yes my friend, and there's more hope where that came from, but no one wants to read an infinantly long email. 

I hope I'll have a good transition into the mission field. I hope I have good companions, I hope I can figure out this new language thing. I hope I can be a good missionary. "Don't wory you'll be great, we're chearing you on, and we promise to write you lots of emails to keep you company". Aww thanks, you guys are EL MAXIMO!!!

Elder Burton and Baxley came up to Heber for like an hour to say hi so that was fun!

Talks: "Carefull VS Casual" - Becky Craven "Broken thing to mend" - Elder Holland" "The eye of faith" - Elder Andersen "He will place you on his shoulders and carry you home" - Elder Uchdorf

"Thats a lot of talks". Ya I know but there is hope in them, will you listen to them. "Por supuesto" (of course)

Scriptures: Alma 7:11-13, 4Nephi 1:25,27, Alma 46::12 (Mornoni!!!), Ezekiel 37:15-19 (Guys I know thats old, but its cool, the old testament prophesies of The Bock of Mormon) "Ok I'll read it, even if its worded very oddly", DNC 93:27 plain and simple.

Love you all' I hope to see you all soon, in 2 years! "We love you Elder Felsted"
