Companion: Elder Swenson

 

Hey family,
I'm glad you liked the letter, it took a long time to write it. I bet Brandon is totally stoked right now, but dont worry, the MTC is a lonnnng time. He'll be even more excited in a couple months.
I just read about james...thats...wow...
I know hes fine, but wow, I wish I could talk to him. Heavenly Father tests his missionaries the hardest. And even more, Satan works the hardest to bring Gods Army down, let him know I'm thinking of him and praying for him always.

So ya, My companion got transferred. My new companion is Elder Swenson, he's from Idaho and he's pretty cool. I'll give you more details as I get to know him better.

My shoes are fine...I'll make em last. I would like those inserts though. We might get mail today,(we usually dont at transfers) but one of the other elders in the house is gonna be training so he's at the mission home today.

By the way, the temple and the mission home are really far away from where I am...Are you sure its the Seoul West mission home, just checking. (mom found them on google earth)

I'm so jealous youre gonna be in New York for thanksgiving. thats gonna be awesome. Send me lots of pictures. I have no idea whats going on here for thanksgiving...probably nothing. But oh well!

Im sure whatever your sending for Christmas will be fine...Write Christmas package or something on it. Sister Burton holds all the packages till Christmas Conference. (on christmas day).

We may have found a few new investigators this week. I'll let you know. other than that...it was a lot of goodbyes this week for Elder Wallentine so nothing to extraordinary happened. ( I didn't get beat up...but then again, Korea is one of the safest places in the world, seriously. So I wouldn't be too worried.

I love you all, Have a good week. Let James know I'm thinkin about him.

Love
Brinton
