HEY

SO THIS LAST WEEK WENT ALRIGHT WE HAD A BAPTISM, and WE FOUND SOME REALLY COOL PEOPLE BUT BY THE TIME THE WEEK ENDED. WE ONLY TOOK TWO OF THEM TO CHURCH. BUT THINGS ARE WELL, THIS LAST CYCLE HAS JUST SEEMED A LOT MORE DIFFICULT THAN ANY OTHER ONE THAT I`VE HAD. SAME WITH MY COMP. WE WERE TALKING ABOUT HOW DIFFICULT THAT ITS BEEN. BUT YOU HAVE GOOD CYCLES AND YOU HAVE SOME THAT YOU STRUGGLE THROUGH. WE ARE JUST GONNA KEEP WORKIN THROUGH IT.

I FEEL LIKE JUST ABOUT ALL THE MISSIONARIES IN THE ZONE ARE GETTING ON BOARD. THEY ARE EXCITED, WE COULD TELL AFTER WE RECIEVED THE REPORTS LAST NIGHT. THERE ARE 3 DISTRICTS HERE IN TECAMAC. BUT THERE IS STILL ONE DISTRICT THAT JUST ISN’T DOING MUCH. THE DISTRICT LEADER IS STRUGGLING. WE`VE GONE ON DIVISIONS WITH HIM ALOT AND TRIED TO SEE WHERE WE COULD HELP HIM, BUT IT JUST COMES DOWN TO DOING THE WORK. THERE ARE GOING TO BE ALOT OF CHANGES COMING IN THE NEXT WEEK. WE FIND OUT ABOUT TRANSFERS THIS WEEK, ON SUNDAY. SO I THINK THAT DISTRICT WILL BE COMPETELY RESTRUCTURED. ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS GET THE NEW MISSIONARIES ON BOARD AND WE`LL START TO EXPLODE. THE DISTRICT THAT WE ARE IN CHARGE OF AND THE OTHER ONE ARE STARTING TO EXPLODE. EVEN THE SISTER MISSIONARIES ARE JUST GOING CRAZY HERE, JUST DOMINATING. BRINGING A TON OF PEOPLE TO CHURCH.

WE DON’T THINK THAT ELDER FILLERUP OR I WILL BE AFFECTED BY CHANGES, BUT YOU NEVER KNOW. WE`LL SEE NEXT WEEK. LIKE I`VE SAID BEFORE, IF WE DO OUR PART AS LEADERS, I EXPECT TO BE HERE UNTIL THE BEGINNING OF SEPT. BUT WE`LL SEE.

THE CPS SYSTEM HAS BEEN SOMETHING THAT I`VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT ALOT ON MY MISSION. LIKE YOU GUYS HAVE SAID SOMETHING HAS GOT TO CHANGE. BUT HOW, AND WHAT AND AT WHICH POINT? WE`LL SEE, BUT I THINK THAT’S’ WHERE I`D LIKE TO GO AND WORK. BUT THATS A WHILE A WAY. I THINK THAT THERE IS A REASON THAT I THINK ABOUT THE SYSTEM, AND WHAT NEEDS TO CHANGE. BUT THERE IS STILL A LONG TIME BEFORE I CAN CONCENTRATE ON THAT.

THE WORK KEEPS MOVING HERE, WE HAD A DISTRICT ACTVITY TODAY. WE WENT ICE SKATING AND BOWLING. I HAVEN’T BEEN ICE SKATIN IN A LONG TIME......BUT I LOVE IT. THE RINK IS HERE IN OUR AREA AND WE WANT TO ASK PERMISSION FROM PRESIDENT TO GO EVERY WEEK. JUST MY COMPANION AND I. BUT WE`LL SEE.

GOTTA RUN.

LOVE YOU ALL,

ELDER HOWARD
