Letter From Rhys - Week # 33 – No time and very late!


Hey all this is going to be really brief because I don’t get much time to write today. This past week has been pretty slow, we didn’t get to do much this week because of holy week. Everyone left for the country side. No one was home and we couldn’t teach much.

Anyway yesterday was Monday so I am writing late, yes. This is because we had to go to Gazcue to renew our residencies to stay living legally in this country. It was a lot of fun to get to sit down and talk with some of the people in my group from the CCM. They all have become so much more mature and its more enjoyable to be in their company.

The mission really changes all who serve. They become someone better or worse depending on the type of missionaries they are. I’m on the positive side of the spectrum, I promise! Anyway, I know that the work that we are doing is extremely important and that it really blesses the lives of all who are involved, whether it be directly or only relative through blood or personal friendships.

This weekend we baptized a convert named Rosa, she had already received all the lessons from other missionaries and attended the church regularly. However, due to a couple of details of which I’m not aware, she wasn’t baptized until now. But she was so happy and loves the gospel of Jesus Christ!

Well that’s all I have for now! Ill definitely have more to write about next week but now I need to make my end! BYE!

Going forth with the Vision of Christ and an Eye of Faith,
Elder Rhys Wheeler


P.S. Mom, I’ll send picture next week and please correct typos! Thanks!

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...
