HELLO :)
Well this week was pretty incredible! Elder Andoh-Kesson and I did some work! Some tornados hit too! Okay so to start my email im safe :) haha Seriously last night was INSANE! So we have a weather radio, and when there is a tornado watch or warning this thing goes off and it is so loud. So this morning at about 2 it went off haha. It kept going off like every half hour. Then at 4:30 the town sirens went off, warning that a tornado had touched down. Those sirens are so LOUD! I can guarentee all of Selma was awake at 4:30 this morning haha. The tornado tore up the town above us and most of Birmingham, but all the missionaries are safe. The rain and storms here are so crazy, it seriously looks like a river is running down all the roads when it rains haha. So yes last night was a very interesting/sleepless night haha, I'm SO TIRED RIGHT NOW! Well as far as people we are teaching this week has been great! We have a baptism this Saturday at 12 o'clock :) I'm STOKED! Elder Andoh-Kesson and I went out tracting for our first time in a while since his leg has been hurt. We knocked into a deaf couples door, and their little daughter came and answered. We told her what we are doing and she signed it to her parents and they said we could come back. Elder Clanton who is here actually speaks sign language. So right away we went and got him and we came back and he talked to them and explained in detail what we do and what are purpose is. They said we could come teach them. We came back the next day and it was by far the most powerful lesson I have ever been in. The spirit was so strong. It's amazing to see how the spirit really works, when you arent making any noise and you just have to completely focus on your feelings, you can feel is so much more. We set up a baptismal date for her, her husband and her little daughter. It was so amazing too because I dont know any sign language at all besides the alphabet, and by the end of the 2 and a half our lesson I was bearing my testimony of how i know its true. Even though i didnt know much, it was amazing how much the lord provided for me to speak and communicate with them. So that was an amazing experience! Transfers are coming up this next wednesday on the 1st, I seriously better not leave Selma this transfer, the work is going so well! I would be sad, but I know that I can have success where ever I go. So I'll be aight :) This week has just been amazing all together seriously, I havent had one like this before. The work is going great and I know the Lord is going to provide for this area. Well as far as Jon Gates address and stuff he moved and I have no idea where he is now or what's going on, so what you could actually do is get ahold of Tracy Pulsipher, and ask her for is because she should have it for tyson, if not, she could get it. About my journel, yes I do have one, actually i have two haha. One study journel that I write in, and another for my day, and I write in it each night. :) So yeah you dont have to worry about that haha. As far as the Book of Mormon is coming, I did really well for the first couple days, and then I got way busy, so unfortunately I wont finish tomorrow, but I will soon :) Well I will send the card home either today or tomorrow and let you see them. Oh and yes haha I do still write jessica, she always takes like a month to write back haha so I'm not exactly sure if you consider it "writing" but yes I do talk with her :) I got Chrissy's letter just the other day though and I'll be writing her back today, pretty excited for that haha. Well really that's what happened this last week. Elder AK is doing great and we are gonna be back in the groove in no time :) I hope everything is going well for you both back home, I'm so EXCITED to be an UNCLE! And seriously, McKinley is such a cute name, Brocker, you better not mess this whole naming plan up :) haha and OH, advice, go read in the November 2011 ensign, "Love her mother". I'm sure you have already heard it, but go read it again, I know you will both be wonderful parents and I know you already love my Sister so raising a girl wont be a problem at all! I LOVE YOU GUYS!
Peace, Love and Blessings,
