Hey Hey conference was really great huh? i really liked learning how they choose where to assign the missionaries that was pretty awesome to hear. They really do it through revelacion and prophecy. I also learned from my last comp that they try to match you to your mission president beacuase there are certain qualities that you will learn from him that you will need in your life. I also liked that talk about Patience in the priesthood session. Its good to learn that patience is active perserverance or in other words keeping the hope that it will happen but also working hard to make it happen too. Have patience mother with the chiildren :) haha I also noticed how they spoke alot about the family and specifically the parents. They really are concerned for the youth of the world and know that the parents must play their role well.

Thats great that youve had the opportunity to reach out to other people and share the gospel. Ive realized just how important it really is from bieng in the service of the lord. Sometimes i feel a little shame for not sharing the gospel as m}uch as i could have with my friends back home!

Well everything is going pretty well here, Im now in managua and in the ward were president fraatz attends church with his family. We got to eat with him aand his family yesterday afternoon. Hna fraatz cooked us lasagna! it reminded me of home a whole bunch. It was cool eating with their family cause it reminded me of the sunday dinners we ate as a family. P Fraatz asked his children and us what we had learned in the conference and how we were going to apply it to our lives just as Dad always does with us. It was neat to see how such a common principle is shared all over the world within the church. Its great that we put in practice wat the prophets spoke about.

Well im doing alright. My companion is a bit trunky he only has 4 weeks left. Im trying too keep us busy and working hard. I dont wanna feel like im wasting my time like i felt when i was in Jinotega. IM the Senor companion of us two but we share the load of planning and running the day. I think im going to be training in the next change because there are coming 30 or so missionaries! Hey i got your package with the music and candy just so you know. Tell all the young women thanks for the cards and all!

So we are teaching and preparing a family to be baptized on the 17th. We brought the children to the conference but the parents couldnt make it. The children really like the church alot and really like us as the missionarys. We have a lot of fun with them and they look up to us a lot. I got to talk with one of them named alex. We talked alot about his family and how there have been some rough times with his dad and the family in general. He really wants to see his father and mother change. He and the children want to be baptized in the church but the father is a bit skeptical and hasnt gone to church yet. Were are trying hard to help this family become members and I really want to help them so much more knowing waht he told me.

Wellll, g2g,
Love you all!!!!!! miss ya love jonny
