Hey everyone!

This week was kind of a busy week! On Monday we went fishing with some missionaries! Then after we 

got done we fried them up and ate them! It was a way good time! That night i went to Wagoner, and went 

on exchanges to do a baptism interview! I went with Elder Rooto! He is from a group of islands called 

Kitabis or something like that! It is over by Fiji! He is way funny! For morning exercise we listed to

Kitabis music and danced! It was sooo funny! The interview went great as well! Well on Wednesday we

had district meeting, and It went alright! but afterwards we went on exchanges with the zone leaders, and 

i went to broken arrow with Elder King! I really like Elder King! He is a way cool guy! We ran into a guy

who tried to prophecy for me, and it was kinda crazy, but it was good! The rest of the week was slow 

until yesterday! It was Kyleas baptism yesterday, and it went so good! Her boyfriend baptized her! It 

was in a river as well! It was just a good day! Then after the closing prayer! Tyler (her boyfriend) 

proposed to her, so now they are engaged which was crazy! It was a way good week! I love and miss 

you all

Hey yall

This week was a great week! It was kind of crazy at the same time! On Monday we had to drive up to Tulsa 

to get one more thing on our car fixed! Well we had to spend the night with some other missionaries! It was

a blast! Then on Tuesday we went up to the Oklahoma City temple! There was like 75 missionaries that went, 

and it was so much fun! I had some really cool experiences in the temple! I am so glad we got to go! The 

only problem is we rode a bus up, and it was like a 2 hour bus ride! There and back! Then on Wednesday

we had a zone meeting and it was great! There was some really good instructions, and also it was my 

11 months mark! Which is super crazy! On Friday we got to go to the Oklahoma City temple again! Ciera

got her Temple Recommend, and she wanted to go! We got permission so us her and our bishop and his 

wife all got in the car and drove to OKC! As we got there an older couple came in with 48 names! we told 

them we would do them for them as well as names our bishop had! Ciera was baptized 23 times which 

was crazy! I got to be baptized 12 times, and then I baptized Elder Wisden and the bishop 12 times each, 

so it was a way cool day! Yesterday  Tyler who is Kyleas boyfriend got the priesthood so he can baptized 

Kylea next week! I am way excited for that! This week will be another crazy week! I love yall so much!

Hey Yall!

This week was pretty good! We have had a ton of Car troubles! It seems like one problem after another keeps happening to our car! It started leaking coolant again, so we are going to get a new one! I am kinda excited for that! The week was a pretty normal week! The offical date that we set for our next baptism is June 26th, so i am way excited about that!! This week was also HOT!! On wednesday Ciera asked to hike up Sperrowhawk with her! so we went up there and had a lesson! I had to come back to the apartment and change because my clothes were SOAKED! I sweated so much! It was like 96 dagrees, and humid, so it was way hot! The lesson was pretty good though! On Friday it was Zone Conference, and it went pretty good! We had 3 zones together, and i got to meet a lot of really cool missionaries! I had fun, but it was kinda long! We had to be there at 8 and didnt get done until 3:45 so it was long, but good! Then on Sunday I got the amazing Opertunity to Confirm Ciera! It was way cool! Tomorrow we get to go to the Oklahoma City Temple, so I am way excited for that! I love you and miss you all

We went on Exchanges after, and Elder Nauta came with me to Tahlequah! We had a really good time! This week was awesome because Yesterday we had a baptism! Ciera got baptised in a river yesterday! It was so cool! President and Sister Loveland came down (i cant seem to get away from them ;)), and we just had a ton of fun! Elder Naef came back, and baptized her! It was really cool to do at the river! after we went to the church, and had dinner with a bunch of people! and we played basketball with Cieras dad! he is a way cool guy!

This week was a pretty good week! We had a pretty good time on Monday! We were with all of our district! We have met with Ciera 3 times this week, and she is so ready to be baptised! The ward here loves her! They all want her to sit by her, and all are trying to help us as much as the can Which is so awesome! Wednesday i had a nother district meeting, and it went pretty good i guess! We had some really good teaching visits for the rest of the week, On Thursday we had our car parked on the side of the road and we were out tracking, well some guy needed to be right where our car was, so when we got back he was cussing up a storm at us, and i was like ok we will move our car, and he just kept hollerin at us, and letting us know we were in the wrong. Well my companinon is still pretty knew, and she he thought that he could try and convert this guy! Well im just going to try and tell yall what was going on, but i dont think i can do it justice! Elder Wisden asked him if he was religious, and stood outside of the car! Well this guy was getting way ticked, and so the more my comp talked to closer, louder, and more vulger this guy got! Pretty soon he and this other guy, are about 10 feet away, and they are acting like they are going to mugg him or something! Well finally i had to roll down his window and tell him to get in the car! so he did, and as we are driving off he asked me "what could we have done better to get that guy interested?" what i said back was "you realize that guy was gonna kill you" He never answered untill later that night, and i guess he finally put together all that happened, and he was just freaking out! it was actually kinda funny! then On Saturday we were out doing service at a members farm, and we found, and killed a copper head snake! I am told they are super poisonis so that was pretty neat! That is me holding the snake! Yesterday Ceria chose a spot to be baptised! I dont remember if i told you or not, but she is going to be baptised in a river! So its going to be way fun! Elder Naef gets to come back and baptize her because he is close, and that is who she wants! I am way excited! Today we are going to go fishing, and we are going to have a few missionaries with us! i will try and remember to take a picture of us! Thats really all for my week! I love you and miss you all

Hey everyone how are you doing?

This week has been a pretty good week!! So on Wednesday I had my first District Meeting as a District Leader, and let me tell you, it was something! I think it turned out alright, but i was sure happy when it was over! Then Thursday was the greatest day! We had an investigator who has been investigating for over a year, and the only reason she hasnt been baptised is because she was living with her boyfriend who is a less active member! Well she let us know that they have moved into diffrent houses, and her boyfriend is working on getting the priesthood so he can baptise her! Well then later that night we had a lesson with Ciera! It was so good! She is so awesome! We set a baptism date for June 4th, and she starting crying when we invited her! It was so sweet! Then saturday and Sunday was Stake conferance. Elder Golden of the Seventy came, and it was sooo good! Then Sunday was my 10 month mark! Time has flown by so fast! I am so excited for what is to come though! Yall have a great week, and I love you!
