Hey Y'all!!!!!!!!!!

> I am doing great, trying to get in the flow of having a new companion
> thats the tricky part right now. I was so used to Elder Wilson and we
> were getting along so well teaching wise and everything else that now
> having someone that it totally different is a little hard to get used
> to for the moment, but i know it will get better! Other then that i am
> doing great! I loved general conference and i learned SO much from it
> that i know can help me out on my mission, but help me as well just as
> a member of this church. I love being able to hear from our prophet
> and apostles they always know what to say and i love being a part of
> the missionary work that is going on! it was a little weird not to
> watch it at a home though, but im over it. It was still great anyways!

> My new companion Elder Milligan seems like a hard worker, he just came
> from mineral wells ( which is a very country town, he came from a
> branch) and really dedicated to work which is great! He has quickly
> learned that the city work compared to the country work is a lot
> different. And i have been helping him out as he is the new district
> leader, sometimes i think i get more stressed out being a jr companion
> to a district leader because there is so much stuff i have to help him
> with because he does not know the area very well yet. Nonetheless i am
> excited to serve with him and i know we can do some great things this
> month in order to find more people and baptize them.

> Our area is doing pretty well, we found 4 new investigators this week
> and two of them really want to get baptized. There are food things
> happening and good things will continue to happen if we work hard and
> ask the God to help lead us to the people that are ready. We have been
> trying to work with members as well so that we can have more quality
> investigators, and hopefully teach a friend of a member! We continue
> to work with the Stewart family but i know Satan is doing all he can
> to keep us far from each other, its been hard to get in and teach them
> this week, things just go wrong and they have to reschedule a lot. I
> am nervous if we do not get in soon that we might loose them, but at
> the same time i do not want to annoy them!
>
> There were a ton of little things that happened this week that helped
> me build my testimony more in the work. One experience is small, but
> made a difference to me. We were trying to visit a less active and
> when we got to the home, there was some other guy living there and we
> told him we would love to share a message with him, and he said sure
> come in! We taught him and he seemed pretty interested! which was
> great! we are going to visit him again this tuesday. Even in that
> small experience, its just neat that because we had a plan to visit
> someone and he wasnt there, there was a reason that we were there. To
> see Rob and who knows if he is prepared or not, but we would have not
> known if we didnt follow the spirit and plan!
>
> Last monday we got to tour the cowboy stadium for p day! and that was
> so cool!! it is SOOSOOSOOSOO HUGE! we got to go into the cowboys
> locker room and the cheerleaders locker room.... which was covered
> wall to wall with posters of the girls! we had some sister
> missionaries come on the tour with us and they told us to put our head
> down haha! It was so cool and i hope to go to a game one day there!
>
> other then all that, it is going good here in arlington texas, already
> getting hot and i know i am gonna die this summer! actually its been
> pretty cold the past week with rain but its hot today!
