I don’t even know how to begin to describe this week. Elder knight Is now home. I am now with Elder Deering. He is from Salem Oregon. He has been on a mission for just under a month. 3 weeks of that was in the MTC. I will admit it has been weird training. I am now expected to know all the answers and to know what to do. But I will admit I am enjoying it. He is an awesome guy I am excited for this chance that I will have to be serving with him. We had an interesting week. It was supper busy but not with the normal missionary things. But that will be changing next week. There is a lady coming here on Thursday. Some may have herd of her. Her name is Gladys Knight. I guess she is famous or something, something about the pips. Anyway, she is a member of the church and travels around doing presentations with a choir she directs called saints united voices. She is doing a presentation at our church this week. We have been busy getting things up for that. They expect us to be really busy all this week because of this and hopeful after it too. I am excited for this. I really don’t have much to talk about from this week. We found a few more people that we hope to begin teaching but other than that there is not much that happened that is worth reporting. We have had a lot of people dropped over the last few weeks so we have spent a lot of time building our pool back up. I did want to take a moment and like my Brother Eric talk about conference. If you did not get a chance to watch it please do. It was amazing. Regarding president Monson’s announcement in the first session, I am supper excited. I think this will have a much needed impact on the missionary force that is out here. We need more missionaries. There is a lot of work to be done and not enough people to do it. I have to say here that if there is anyone reading this who is or has considered going on a mission please please please do. I promise it will be the best thing that you have ever done in your life. I have never made as good a decision as this one. I love every second of it. So if you have thought about it or considered it, please go. Ask God about it and then follow the prompting to go. I love serving a mission and I know that if you do your part you will too. And that goes for all who are reading this both young and old. J If you have no clue what I am talking about, go to lds.org and watch the Saturday morning session of conference it is wonderful. I really enjoyed conference and advise all to read and reread the talks from it. I am excited for this coming week. Big things are going to start happening her in the Iowa Des Moines mission. There is a spiritual fire starting to spread and we are seizing this opportunity to bring souls unto Christ. I love all of you. Thank you for all you continue to do for me. It is weird to think that I only have 10 months left. I have not been out that long and I plan to make every second count. I love all of you. I know thins church is true. I know Jesus is the Christ, In the name of Jesus Christ amen.
