I will teach and preach and do as missionaries do!

Weeks 32 - 34

Well sorry for not writing the last few weeks, with the holiday and all and just not having much time here at the library because of all the other things we had to do, I forgot until after we were already gone. Well let’s see, Hunter hasn’t been baptized yet, he's been having a lot of struggles, but he's slowly over coming all of them. So hopefully one day soon he will be able to get baptized. We have been teaching a lot of lessons, like the most I have my whole mission the last few weeks. It’s crazy! We do have a baptism coming up either this Sunday the 24th or the following Saturday the 30th, he's not sure what day he wants to have it yet, but we'll know by Thursday. His name is Travis, his mom was baptized last September, and when we were meeting with her (two Saturdays ago), he walked outside and talked with us for a bit, then said that he would possibly see us at church tomorrow (two Sundays ago). And he was there! We went and started teaching him and he likes it all, he's read a lot and feels that it’s true and is excited to get baptized. It’s way sweet. Elder Marquez and I are still trying to figure out new ways to work with members more, and feel that things are starting to move along now also, which is really good. Also just found out that August 13th Elder Holland is going to be here and having a Mission Conference with him! So sweet, and he's talking in the Kingsland stake which is the one that I’m in, so it’s going to be a good weekend – haha. Not too much else, going on, although I have probably seen more rain in the last few weeks than I have in a few years back home in Vegas, so im having fun!

Love you all, and hope all is going well. (Mosiah 2:41)

Love,
Elder Holcombe
