Hello

 Family,

mostly a replay to the letter mom gave me. um... yes i got sick earlier this week. its alright though everyone is getting sick here just what happens. mom thanks you for the caution with the sisters here. don't worry i wish they weren't here anyway so i am not flirting with anyone. there is a more important work to do here. haha sounds like you have had an amazing week being taught many servants of the Lord. was it just apostols that teach you?? there was really high secured around the main building where you were so we couldn't get anywhere close. i got called down to the office and so i was trying to ger there but they had someone escort me there. crazy stuff, plus i wanted to break through the lunch room to eat your food. well you were talking about missionaries not taking morining serious. some kid in our room was like lets get up at 6 so we have been getting up at 6 and doing all the studying that needs to be done so no worries mom all is going well here. when you talked to Elder Perry did he like teach you stuff or was it just a casual conversation?? did you get to ask any questions?? well i haven't gained any pounds yet... i usually try to eat health.. like salads and stuff. yes that sounds really wierd but i have actually come to like salad. so what bike did you end up getting me??? any will do and thanks for all the rest of the supplies i am looking forward to getting them.

alright about me here and what has been going on the week. this friday at the mission pres seminar Elder Bednar talked about being a preach my gospel missionary. a few things that stood out to me was that " we don't ask you to be perfect but we do expect you to be worthy", also get out of the way of the Holy Ghost". i was thinking we can't be perfect yes but as along as we do all that we can do be the best we can be, the Lord will help with the rest. We need to be worthy so that the Spirit can be with us as we teach. also the Spirit is what teaches, it isn't what we say, but the spirit that someone feels as we are there. so we neeed to in a sense get out of the way while the Spirit talks. Another talk was given during priesthood session on sunday. Brother Rogers talked about how was need to have our own sacred grove, that we need to make prayer more meaning full and pour our heart our the the Lord. if we do that and do it off we can recieve many blessings that we as missionaries need. then sacrement meeting Brother Allen talked, he was just telling how missions were. that you are going to have afflictions and trials. that this will be the hardest thing of our lives but that isn't a reason to go home. he said the only reason to go home, is if we have major moral issues. i think that it helped every missionary there gain hope that they can be there doing the work of the Lord.

overall this week has been amazing. time after time it has been manifest to me that the only way to be happy or recieve happiness is through the gospel. there is no other way. everything is going well, thanks for the letters from some of you. hope all is going well at home, and all the house situations have been sorted out. love you all. hope all is going well! thanks

love, elder pitt
