| Our District The Sisters with my companion being a goofball! |
Dear Family & Friends,
Thank You so much! Yes, I got
everything in the package. I revealed many of the photos you sent so I could
keep them forever. I'm glad to hear Chris will take it slow, and I hope his
hand (and heart) feel better soon. Congrats on the mission calls! The Lord loves
the help. YESSSS! The Giver. The long awaited day is coming. I hope they don't mess
it all up. But I will be anxious to see it, too!
We had to drop a lot of people this
week so we're focusing on finding again, but I would like to work more with the
members to obtain references. My companion and I have been talking about how
our work can be more effective.
That would be great to get an
additional set of missionaries! It's always great having a set of Sisters
because often they can get into homes that we can't. My first area had both
Elders and Sisters and right now the branch has both as well, but our area is
huge so they work on one side of the river and we work on the other.
I have so much to tell you all when I
get home it's not even funny!
Yeah, we walk about 30 minutes to the
Church, but we don't use the bus. I LOVE IT! We save so much money and the
church is wayyyy closer. I remember walking an hour and a half sometimes to get
to church, and feeling bad that we couldn't be teaching someone during the time
we were walking.
Hahaha, the mission office. I never
go there. We don't get delivery mail in this mission. So what happens is once a
month our Zone Leaders will give our mail to us in a meeting, if we have
any.
No, I haven't had that many weird
things, just fruits that I had never had like Guava and Bread Fruit. Sweet
potatoes and yams are white, not orange here, which is kind of weird. But
talking of food, I had a question. I want to make an apple crisp like you used
to. It doesn't need to be a pie or super fancy; I just want to know if you
could send me a simple recipe? We have flour, sugar, and oatmeal at the house
but I can buy cinnamon for pretty cheap and milk, and oil. That would be great
thanks!
No, the Sisters will print the idea
for the t-shirts today and we might get them printed after District Meeting on
Thursday. I'll send you a picture of the idea.

I Love the thunder. If you have a
minute check out the song "It's Thunder and It's Lightning" by a band
called "We Were Promised Jetpacks" it complements the storm quite
nicely. Hahaha! I can't believe I remembered all of those names?! I've still
got it! ;)
Best of Luck with Allison, I know
she'll know her track soon. It really doesn't matter which one she gets. If
she's in school when I get home, I can walk to Idaho, haha.
I really haven't but I sent an email
to President today saying how I would Love to meet with him. We'll see how it
goes. He'll probably give me a call later today.
AWWWWWWwwwwww CATHY! I Love YOU!!! I
laughed really hard at that picture of you and Allison on the couch. I hope the
house comes along soon! Keep smiling and I hope you fly safe!
Love, Me :)
Hi BUTTERSCOTCH! I Love YOU WHOSE A
GOOD BOY?!?!?!
I remember a scene from the Joseph
Smith movie, as Joseph Smith Senior lay sick the prophet told him, "You
will always be his father, and Alvin will always be your son."
I have a family here on earth. They
are so good to me. I want to share my life with them through all Eternity. As
Famílias Poderão Ser Eternas.
More to follow.
I Love Thee All,
Elder Weaver
