I Pray for You Every Day


Dear mom,

This week was much like last week. The S. were home and we visited with them on Thursday; set an appointment for Saturday; they were not home but left us a note; we left them a note in response saying "we'll see ya at church!"; they didn't come to church; we went to their house after; the note on the door was gone, and they weren't home. Sheesh they're hard to catch! Man... We'll keep trying though.

I am getting beastly at biking now. We were cruising last night, going fast enough to keep up with traffic at least, when Elder Stephens slipped off his bike. The chain snagged or something. He miraculously ninja'd his way into landing on his feet with nothing but a small bruise on his shin from the pedal. It was awesome! In the thrill of the moment I almost ran him over cause I was behind him. We laughed for a while, and then went to see one of his converts, E. B., for the last time. Elder Stephens is getting transferred this week.... 

I am officially released in my duties as a district leader, and Elder Thompson will be DL from now on. His companion, Elder Gemmell, will be staying another transfer. I am going to be training a new missionary again. I go down on Tuesday and will get my new trainee Wednesday. I'm excited to go to this transfer meeting though, because the sisters we came out with are going home. Sisters Chai, Robertson, Cottam, and Kloepfel. It'll be fun to say goodbye to them all. There are also a lot of my friends going home- Elders Williams, Ultra, and Harper. Elder Harper I lived with back in Aiken and he was in Florence zone one transfer when I was. Elder Ultra was a ZL when I was and we had some fun times together in ZLC. Elder Williams was an AP and a ZL I worked with a lot. I will miss all of them greatly. But now that we can email them, it'll be way easier to keep in touch! :) Oh, did I ever tell you that Elder Horne is a DL and is training now? He got his trainee last transfer. That makes me a grandpa ha-ha. Elder Cook is his name.

So we got an announcement at interviews last week. We are now allowed to email whomever we want. Don't matta no mo! Friends, family, anyone! We also got our email time extended from 45 min to 1 hour 15 min. How great is that?! So anyone may email me now and I will respond as I can. Woo hoo! :)

Well other than that, nothing really great happened this week. We're just working hard, being obedient, and loving the people. To answer, yes I'm taking pictures. I got a sweet memory card to go with the camera when I got it, so I'm all set. I'll have plenty of room for the rest of forever. And yeah, sometimes we go explore the town, but usually on P-day we just lounge around and play Uno or something. We're just too tired to spend our energy. Ha-ha.

Love you guys! I pray for you every day. Love ya!

Elder Seaver
