March 3rd Letter

I’m doing great! I’m loving my new trainee companion. He is awesome! His name is Elder Nyanhamo and he is from Zimbabweea! (not sure how to spell zimb... but you get what im saying) Training is going great, not as hard as I thought (knock on wood). We’re having heaps of fun and working really hard. Yeah the mission is going great! I am still in Frankston! I love it here. About half way into my mission, I will be getting a new mission president. I love you all!!! :)

February 24th Letter

Hey everyone!
It is still very hot here and very weird to hear about snow. If any family is getting any friend requests from random people, they’re probably just people wanting to tell you that I am doing well, as long as it says they're in Australia or something like that, just wanted to give you a heads up. Oh, wanna hear something crazy? I’m going to be a trainer for a new missionary in 2 days! My head is kind of spinning so keep me in your prayers if you will. Does anyone have any advice? I hope you have a wonderful week. I love you all!!!

February 17th Letter

This week has gone pretty well, handing out Book of Mormons like crazy. It's definitely not the easiest thing to be a missionary, but I still love it just the same. Our baptism had to be postponed due to lack of church attendance but that’s ok. I hope the ward is hard at work (which I’m sure they are) extending that had to bring the less actives back. I keep on hearing that that was one of the main things the Presidency is really pushing for. V-day was ok, not really different from any other day. I hope all is well back at home! Have a wonderful day! Toodles! :)

February 10th Letter

I can’t believe Jackson is already 6, and I can’t believe Huddy is almost 2! I miss being able to go to the temple often. I really miss stake choir too. Although ward choir here can be pretty fun and a recent convert asked me to sing a duet with her in sacrament in about 2 weeks or so, we’ll see how that goes. I’m doing great and having a lot of fun with the work. Recently we’ve had a guy with us who’s on his mini mission so we’ve been showing him the ropes and such. We have a baptism set date with an investigator for February 23rd. We just can’t wait to bring up W.O.W., this lady always has some kind of drink sitting out. But she is Merushon and I’m pretty she’s just a social drinker. You guys are in my prayers. Well I got to go, is there anything I can do for you? I love you all!!!! Have a wonderful day!

February 3rd Letter

I’m good this week and I am enjoying my second transfer! I can’t believe I’m going to miss the Anderson Family Reunion that’s being held in my birthplace! But whatevs, doing something more important, lol. I hope it goes really well and that everyone has a great time. Thank you everyone so much for your encouragement. I promise to try my best to stand in holy places at all times. It is so wonderful to have to opportunity to share and remind others about the Savior’s atonement and redeeming love for us. I hope all is well with the family. :)
