Hello Everyone.
Well
there was supposed to be the biggest super typhoon to hit in a while on
Saturday and Sunday. Well, it actually didn't hit at all, it was pretty nice.
There were a lot of prayers that were answered when the typhoon broke apart and
went down south of us. Today is actually a very nice day. The sun is out and it
is only a little windy. We have not had too much rain at all. This might be the
first and only time when you guys have a lot of rain, and it is nice and sunny
here. ha ha. Now I can feel bad for you with all the rain.

Dad
Wow that is a lot of travel. I can't believe you are
going to India. That is pretty cool. I bet you will like traveling there. Love you.
Mom
Hey mom. I heard that you are trying to get the generator
to work. So you guys must be out of power. I am sorry that I am not there to
help. I wish I could help. That stinks that dad had to leave this week. I bet
you wish I was there to help out. Just kidding. You have Reed man to help you
right?? That is a crazy story. The house is surrounded by water. That is nuts.
Thanks for the quick email. So I was so anxious, I just really love your
letters.

Question
#5: What is something you learned studying this week?
Answer:
That there is so much missing from the Bible. Jesus the Christ lists so many
books that are missing. Thank goodness we also have the Book of Mormon.
Question #6: Is there
anything you wish you had taken but you didn't?
Answer: I think that I would
have taken my map of the Book of Mormon that I drew in my Mission Prep class in
college. I would love that. Besides that, I can't think of it.

Question
#7: Do you know Elder Cameron? He is
from Tahoe and knows Uncle Ralph.
Answer:
I do not. The only elders I know are the past 4 Assistants to the President
and 3 of them are home now, and the Elders who are in Yap and the Elders I came
out with. Do you know what island he is on and when he started his mission?
Staheli
How are you doing? Is it super rainy in Reno or is it
nice weather there? I love you.
Reed
Hey man, that is so cool that you passed all the permit
test. Now you can drive with an adult 25 or older between 6am and 10pm. Ha ha.
No man that is really awesome. I knew you would pass. That stinks about the
ps3. What is the plan for fixing that? And by the way the Christmas trees were
and are amazing. I am sorry that you didn't get any, but I will enjoy them all
for you. ha ha. Now that there is a storm there and I am not there to help out.
You got to take the lead in doing all that stuff. Okay? I know you probably are
anyways. Love you
Grandma
Just thought that I would write and say that I love you
so so much. I really love all the letter you send to me.
Grandma and Grandpa Meyer
I got a letter from you guys. I loved it. I will write back
soon, but as for now, I say that I love you guys so much.
Carol
That is really awesome that your house didn't flood. I
know that it has happened in the past. Our Heavenly Father is most definitely
looking out for you.
To Everyone
Well, this was a pretty
average week. Nothing to exciting because the typhoon went south of us. A lot
of people were preparing for it though. There are boards up on the store
windows. People were tying their houses down. But it went by us. So that was
good.
Do
you remember Sh*nt*. A girl that we were going to baptize in Nov. Her
dad said that he was coming in Dec so we were going to baptize her then. Well
he called and said that he is not coming until Jan. Sad right. I thought we
were going to have to wait until then. Well, he said that she can be baptized
and she can pick the date. Yeah. So we might have a baptism on Saturday. I am
very excited for her. She wants me to baptize her and Elder Nelson to give her
the Holy Ghost.
Let’s see R*nny, A*g*stine's
friend… We are still teaching him, but I think that he is going to start making
more progress here soon. We have taken his betelnut 2 times at his request. I
am so excited for him. We had a great lesson with him and A*g*stine was there.
He is a great example for him.
Baptism |
Church started out really amazing. We had five
investigators there. It was great. Then came… President G*b*ng announced the
district Christmas party and one of the district counselors did not know about
it. He got really bad and was yelling. Not good. He eventually just left and
went home. This was in front of two recent converts and 1 investigator, I might
add. We went over to his house after church and talked to him about it. He felt
bad, but it was not how you go about things.

Oh yeah can't forget about J*r*m. He was asked to speak
in Sacrament meeting. He is pretty nervous, but we are going to help him the
best way that we can. He said that he is not sure exactly what to do, but we
are helping him. I am excited that he was asked to do something. None of our
recent converts have been given a calling yet. So at least a talk is a way for
them to stay somewhat involved.
