Hey family!! Seattle is going super great!! This is my second day here!!
I've already talked to tons of random people off the street and a lot of people
are willing to listen, so it's going really great!! Just so you know I don't
know my address exactly, but my companion, Elder Lindeman, told me that we
shouldn't have you send anything directly anyways because of the area around
here is kinda sketchy, so just send it to the mission home and the zone leaders
will go get it and bring it to us. The address of the mission home is in my
mission call, so hopefully you kept that! haha. But yeah, how are things going
over there?? I hope things are good!! Things here are good, I don't know what
i'm doing half the time, there's already good and bad times, but I try to just
focus on the good! :) There literally has not been a single cloud in the sky
since I got here haha. They said this is washington's longest dry streak ever
haha!! But I know i shouldn't get used to it because just as soon as things
come, they can go. I miss you guys!! Like I said, my companion is named elder
Lindeman, he is like six foot three and like 290, but hes a great guy!! He has
been out a little over a year, like 14 months or so. He really knows his stuff
really well! :) How's school going? And work? And play time? Are you getting
some good play time in too?? Haha I hope so, it's just as important to play as
it is to work!! I live in a little tiny apartment in the ghetto haha!! So fun!
But my companion is the district leader so we do get the car this transfer, but
all that means is that we drive to a part of town, park, and then run run run!
And when I say run, i mean it 100% literally. We do not walk or lolligag in the
Washington Seattle mission, we run from door to door, neighborhood to
neighborhood, with strength and purpose!! Definitely will get some exercise
during my mission!! I haven't even gotten to take any pictures or go shopping
or anything yet because I have been busy from the moment I stepped off the
plane!! I had lunch at the mission home yesterday, but all i've eaten since
then was a peanut butter sandwich because we have been too busy to even go to
the store!! But don't worry, We're going to the store sometime tonight to get
some food haha!! I'm just in the King county library right now, just sittin on a
laptop! My tracting/contacting skills are like zero I have found out, but
hopefully they will get better with time :) I certainly hope so! I am excited to
be here in seattle where the Lord has called me to be a servant to these
people!! I hope and pray that I can be a tool in the Lord's hand in improving
their lives and bringing them closer to Christ! That is my purpose, the reason
I'm here at all. I love you all so much and pray that you all can come closer to
Christ while I am coming closer to Him. By the way, my P-day is on mondays, so I
'll write next then:) Love you guys!! Have a great week!!
Love, Elder
