HI, Mom
Glad to hear things are going good.  I hope things go well with Brett.  Glad to hear Stormy is doing well.  I've talked to him a few times. Tomorrow is transfers.  I'm getting a new companion, which is cool, I'm excited. So the Assistant in the Mission Presidency has been placed over Urcos.  This Wednesday just in time to start the transfer he is going to come and were going to make a new mission plan and I think he is going to teach us too.  He came this Sunday.  I think he's awesome.  I'm hoping that we can really get some things going here in Urcos. It needs to be a Branch, it's been a family group for 15 years, so yeah, we've got a lot of work to do.  He told us that our purpose as missionaries is to baptize and confirm and we shouldn't set that aside for anything, but because we are also in a family group we also need to establish the church. He talked about having a balance and that the lord wants leaders that learn to be balanced.  He said that there are leaders that are amazing leaders but not very good dads, or amazing dads but not the best leaders in the church.  He taught us the theory of "pressure" that a ball with little holes in it will shoot out the pressure at the same velocity in every hole, and that is how satan works.  He attacks from all sides with the same force.  He also said the law of every action will recieve the same or greater reaction, so that we as missionarys need to push back with the same force or more, it was awesome. So I'm excited for this Wednesday. Things are going good, Love ya Mom, until next week!
