Praying for the Missionaries

I'm not sure, but I think this is part of Grady's district. He doesn't always tell us who are in the photos!!

November 15, 2009 Hello Family! How is everything goin? Dad it sounds like the Fed Ex job is pretty sweet. Oh, and ya, the older the car is the more the insurance is here. I never see old cars anymore. I’ll see one in a garage once in a while. I haven’t seen a Subaru 360 yet but ill let you know.
My bike is good now. It glides just like moms old red Schwinn. It is sweet. It is bright blue with blue tires too. It is pretty funny because Elder Budge has an all white bike and Elder Escalante has an all red bike. Together we make the American flag. It is pretty sweet. From here on out it shouldn’t be too much upkeep. Just new brake pads every couple transfers. They are 20 dollars for four. I write in my journal everyday so it should be good. What do you do with the pictures I send you? And are my pictures all right? Please let me know. Well this week has been pretty good. I met with a couple of investigators this week. One of them is named Jay. He is 43 and from Nigeria. He is huge! Probably like 6`4 and close to 300 pounds. He dwarfs me. He is way cool but very busy. He really wants to know if the Book of Mormon is true so he is reading and praying about it. Yesterday at church I had a cool little experience. Ishiba shimai, a Phillipino lady in the ward said the closing prayer in sacrament meeting. Her prayer really touched me. She prayed for the missionaries, which included me. I know you guys pray a lot for the missionaries but I guess it was just good to here it from someone here in Japan. I love the members here. You can talk with someone for a while and say wow, they are a great person. I have found out that if the spirit tells me the person is great it is much better. My mind can’t comprehend all things, and that is why we need the spirit. I am so blessed to have an opportunity to feel the spirit everyday. Sorry Mom about the late birthday present. It should be arriving shortly. Well, I love all of you and I am very thankful for how good you all are to me. Oh, and in the next email send me how you were blessed by following a commandment. Oh, and Adri is in Jeruslalem?! I didnt know. That. sounds sweet. But anyway, thanks again and I love you all. Till next week.
