Howdy Y'all !!!!!!!

Dear Reader,
 
    Hello!!!!!!! Long time no see!!!!! (over 8 months now!) I have had the privilege to hear from a few of you and for that I am grateful!!!!! So if y'all were a wondering, Yes I am still in Nerk (Newark) Ahia (Ohio)!!!!!!! I have been in this great area for 6 months come the end of September!!!! (That 1/4th of my mission!!!) WOW!!!! My Amazingly wonderful Companion is Still Elder Shelton From Salt Lake (West Jordan) and we are going on 4&1/2 months together!!!!
   The Work is Really Booming!!!!! (bachowoowogwotwoowu!!!!!!!!!!  <----{that's a bang} ) We are Finding Tons of Investigators!!!!! the average investigators found a week is about two but lately that has not been the case. It is Thursday and Me and Elder have already found 7 New investigators!!!!! We have a baptism this Saturday and it is going to be great!!! His name is Bobby and he is a member of a Part-Member family. That is where the work is right now for us. Yes we are finding a lot of people through contacting/knocking doors but Part-member families and Member Referrals are way more likely to progress and be baptized! So to those reading: Invite a friend to receive the missionary lessons! by doing so you are inviting them to receive Exaltation!!!!!! That is the greatest thing you could ever do for them!!!!!!! If you reading this and you are not a member: THANK YOU, for your continued support and love! I would ask one thing off you tho. Take 5 Minutes today and go to MORMON.ORG and read/ watch some of the things you'll find there. If you will take my word I promise you will not be wasting your time.
  All Blackfootians: You all better of enjoyed the fair for me!!!! I assume that there were about 5 or 6 extra Tiger Ears eaten for me and at lest 3 donuts burgers eaten in my behalf!!!
  Now for all of you Scouters out there of whom I have the greatest respect for, I miss you! As a missionary you are really restricted to what things you can do and unfortunately there is like nothing outdoor i can do as i did with scouting. Tho there is a amazing member here who gave me some rope, and you know me and rope/knots, and i made a belt!!! My belts keep breaking so i made one i could trust!!!! so that's kinda related to scouting. For every one who gave some time to serve as some sort of camp or scout event this summer:A BIG Thank You!!!!!!!!!! You are the ones that really allow the experiences happen that change so many lives. It thoroughly made mine what it is today.
   Family and Friends: Thank you so much for your love and care. You guys really keep me going. Thank you so much for the letters. They really Brighten my day. If you want to send more:

Being a member of The Church Of Jesus Christ is not just a Sunday thing....its a Life Style!!!!!!!!  We have the Perfect example of Christ to follow!!! We can make it!!!! He knows the way!!!! Just follow him and do what he has done!!!! Today I had the Opertunity to go to The Columbus Ohio Temple for the 2nd time. It was amazing...  Go To the Temple!!!!

August 2011

Drew is very happy. He loves the area he is in and is grateful to be staying there a while. One of his friends from grade school just got transferred to his district. He is excited. He has three scheduled baptisms and loves all the work. He loves to receive letter so you all need to write. I will try to do better at keeping up on this. It was supposed to be his sister's job, but she is busy. He loves serving the Lord and could not be happier.

Transfers....

Hello World!!!!
 So The Results from Transfers is...I get to stay In Nerk Ahia!!!! Woot Woot! I love this place!!!! My Companion is the same. Tho Sister Whitney just finnished her mission so she went home. So we got a New Sister missionary in Sister Hazelton. She is 4'10''. She was Trained Here back in October so she has returned. Sister Syzmanski is still here but since she is 6'3'' is really funny. Every thing else stayed the same in My District.
  I hear From home that I'm missing out on all the fun up at Camp (Little Lemhi) But I know that I am the  happiest i have ever been right now as i am Serving. Tho I have traded the L.B.D.'s (Lost Bather Drill) for L.M.D.'s (Lost Member Drills) and have traded the Bears For Gangsters, I know that I Everything That i have done in my life (expecialy camp) has prepared me for this moment!!!!! 
 
I love the Lord God And I Love You!
