Let Go Baby Hippo

I love pdays, but all I do is make cookies now, we are doing so many family nights and our relationship with the members is getting good.

The training is going really well, Elder Dias is super cool and I have never wanted to help someone so much in my life as I want to help him now. More info on him, he is 20 and he played soccer professionally for a short period of time. Pretty neat right?!

I was happy to hear that Ash and John got jobs. Good work (if I were my old self I would make a joke about them finally moving out of mom´s basement.) hehe, but I've changed, I am a newer and better person. Also good to hear that Kayci and Preston got callings. Preston is the mission leader and I am expecting weekly number reports. Let's make a goal to baptize weekly.

I met President Parrela on Friday. He is ridiculously awesome. Seriously I think he is great and I am super excited to work with him. One of our goals as a mission is to baptize 500 people per month, which we have never done or come close to doing, but he has a plan and I am super excited to get to work. Sister Parrela is cool too. She talked for 3 hours straight about food. I am going to buy prunes today and clean out my system. Also she is making us all eat honey from now on. I like honey so it is all good (also John the Baptist ate honey all the time and he baptized quite a few people).

It isn't too cold here, I am doing well. It should be colder in the truth.

This week passed really quickly and I think things will continue and before we know it school will have started already! And you guys will have to stop having so much fun!

I LOVE Y'ALL TONS
and have a great week.

Love,
Elder Stringer
