Letter From Kelson - Week #60 - I LOVE WATERMELON!!!

Good Morning From Sunny California!!!
It is a wonderfully hot day today, and I must say that it would go extraordinarily well if I had a big chunk of watermelon to devour...Hum, sounds like a genius Idea, I'll be back...
20 min later...
...Ok I am back, It was delicious, I will send my mom a video and some pictures after this e-mail, hopefully, I will work my magic fingers into a figure 8 knots so that I can send these pictures and video, it was just so good!!! I am sending them now, I hope she gets them to you, because you will be able to enjoy it just as much as I did.
This past week was super productive, we had a team-up with the Assistants to the President (pretty good missionaries) and they took Elder Badger out and showed him a thing or two about missionary work. I think they may have shown him about 4 or 5 because I might have taught him some false doctrine...I don't remember every word that comes out of my mouth, just the looks of other people. As we went on the team up, we added this family, they are a part member and they have just been less active since the Assistant baptized them almost 2 years ago...coincidence ,I think not! It seems we are playing into a hand that has been a royal flush ever since the beginning and we are those throw away pawns that get the glory of taking the queen and then are sacrificed before the king, as we are then destroyed so that the player can gain checkmate in the next move ( I'm a little bitter still because Elder Badger really did a number on me playing chess this week, and scrabble too...The son is taking over the Father's dominion...)  This family wants to complete their family in the gospel, and come back to church. I don't know if it was my charm or the need for the gospel, but we will take both and make a good member sandwich out of it. They didn't come to church this week, so it isn't my charm, however, they are allowing us to come over tomorrow and then do service for them in the morning on Wednesday...YES SERVICE!!! I love service.  I can get out of my suit....
So far the work is progressing slow, and I think it will be picking up here really soon. Our mission has a goal of baptizing 70 people in the month of June and It looks like we are going to do that!!! WAHOO!!! Keep us in your prayers please.
Until we meet again next time I LOVE YA,
Elder Wheeler

P.s. MOM I NEED YOUR HELP IN THE TYPING DEPARTMENT. IT SEEMS THE CAPS LOCKS IS STUCK AND I AM PAYING TOO MUCH FOR CAR INSURANCE!!! 

Note from Mom:  The videos and pictures he just sent are on his blog at elderwheeler.blogspot.com.  Enjoy!

Letter from Kelson - Week # 72 - Time is Money, and I'm Broke!!!

Good Morning From Sunny California!!! I must apologize in advance for the length of this letter, it seems that their ain't no rest for the wicked...and that means no rest for those trying to help the wicked either. Anyway, I am pretty wicked myself, so no self indulged pride there, just making a statement on how little time I have to write this P-Day. We have been going Mach 5 with our hair on fire since 630 this morning, last week...I think that works. It has been crazy, the weeks are blending together, my companion and I are always trying to help out the missionaries in our Zone, and we are striving to be the best Leaders possible, while helping them to aspire to be better missionaries themselves. We also are trying to see success in our own area. There is quite a lot on my plate, and I am wondering what thanksgiving is going to look like...With this much food and I am only in September. I have some super news! Arturo, the super awesome guy from Stockton that got baptiz...

Letter from Kelson #9 - I am still alive and Kicking!!!

Good Morning From Sunny California!!! CAN I GET AN AMEN!!!!!....(PLEASE PROCEED TO SHOUT OUT LOUD "AMEN", THANK YOU FOR PARTICIPATING). This past week was super awesome, but also challenging beyond belief. This past week was the last week of the transfer and things were going crazy. We started of the week with a full white board of people to tech and bring the Gospel to, and by Friday we had maybe 2 people left. Everyone just started dropping like flies!!! We were unable to make contact with any of them, we had people tell us that they will not be continuing to learn from us, and we also had people ignore us when we stopped by... A bit of discouragement was really hitting us hard this week. We were struggling all week to try and fill our days with things to do and people to teach. I think we went Tracting (Door knocking) for an hour or two just to see what we could find. But alas we were unsuccessful in making these things come to pass. Sorry if I just made everyone who r...
