Andrei is progressing

HHHHIIIIIIIII!!!!!!

  Wow, thanks for all of your letters...MINUS KYLE!! Mom, you continue to blow me away with your studies, keep them up! Thanks for all your love and support.  This week was another crazy crazy week. But i just want to testify about the Atonement real quick.  It’s as real as you make it, and it'll affect your life to the extent that you allow it (on an earthly stand point....grain of salt).  All I’m trying to say is that if you use the Atonement and TRULY believe in its power to heal and enable, your eyes will be opened to see the Fruits right now, in this life. AND IT’S AWESOME when that happens.   My comp and I went in to see our President and we're ready to go and work hard...in our comp inventory after weekly planning, he brought up the fact that he needs to get up on time, then he said that he's NEVER brought that up in any comp inventory in his WHOLE mission!!!  Yesterday...he was up at 6:30 am BOOOOO YA!!  we're seeing improvement little by little and my comp is the happiest kid ever, our District had become so much closer as a result of trying to help out someone in need...we're saving souls and it couldn't be a more glorious work.  Last night we had a crazy awesome experience...we were on our way to a lesson and I felt like I needed to talk to a man that was passing by us...so I did, and well, his name is Sergay and turns out that he was baptized a long time ago and that all of his children were baptized and that his wife died and He's already done her temple work Freiburg Temple...no big DEAL!!!  I've never heard of this man and he lives in our area and is way inactive but he said that we could come by and meet with HIM!!  What a blessing.  THEN we had an incredible lesson at the church with Andrei.  He has agreed to be baptized and we did a review lesson with him to see where he was at.  He remembered a ton of things and we brushed up on others.  All he has left is Word of Wisdom and tithing and that’s pretty much it.  We taught the Law of Chastity (for my 1st time!!)  It went smoothly and it was so cool to be able to relate to him and bear testimony.  Things are going better, and life truly is and always will be CHOICES (thanks Dad).  I have now two weeks in a row plowed an entire church walk way and parking lot (almost the parking), I haven’t decided if I like mowing lawns better or not.  The weather is getting a little chilly again but it’s not that bad b/c it snowed a few days ago which is always a sign that it'll be warm out.   K, I’m going to send some pictures so this letter will be a little short for time's sake. I love you all, more than you can imagine.  Keep working hard. Oh and with everything you do, try and be PURE, and not just clean.  A great example of what I mean, it’s like when you clean you room, did you just throw everything in the cupboards and throw things under the bed so that it appears clean on the outside?? OR did you fold all your clothes and "vacuum the EDGES" (Dad...again)...this principle goes past just cleaning your room, it maybe taking a shower with SOAP (Kyle...) haha I’m just kidding, but really when you apply this principle in your life, you feel more confident and just over all amazing!  To live purely!!

Love you all
