whats up? this week was busy. and super draining. Wednesday we had zone conference from 8-3... not typically what would fall under the "fun" folder in the files. Elder Benson (my patawan) is doing good. he's from Park City and we know a bunch of the same people. I played lacrosse against some of his friends. He's probably one of the funniest kids I've met.

haha so the second day we had him (Tuesday), we took him tracting and the first door we knocked on was a JW (Jajovah's Wittness). haha oh man. I wish you could have seen Benson's face when the guy opened the door screaming at us. great first experience.

then a few houses down, a guy was sitting in his driveway and he just yelled, " DONT EVEN WASTE YOUR TIME. YOU CAN'T SAVE ME. I'M GOING TO HELL" I just said " Okay sir. have a great day... and remember, Jesus loves you."  haha he got really confused. people on drugs are funny.

THEN.. best house yet.... we knock and a guy yells WHO THE #$%^@ IS AT MY DOOR? haha before the guy even opened the door, Elder Benson was on the other side of the fence. that kid is quick when he wants to be. afterwards, He says to me, " Well, that was the first time i've pooped myself on my mission." haha

we tracted for about 12 hours this week. And no one accpeted our message. It was a slow, hard week. But I guess we all have those.

Elder Hughes is doing good too. We just don't really connect. at all. We get along just fine, we're just not besties. you know?

oh yeah... And sorry There havent been any pictures for a while. my sd card is being mean to me. But I'll have some next week! Is there anything I can do for anyone!? If there is just email me:) Love all of you!

oh one more thing.. I want to testify real quick of prayer. this week has been rough on me. my back hurting, feeling sick, missing home, being stressed. but When im to week to stand, I drop to my knees. And Pray with ALL my heart for strength and comfort. and it comes. I know he is there. I know he cares I know he listens. PRAY. IT WORKS.

get it?? ha ha
