2/12/08: Hey!

Hey everyone -

Things are going great here! I am having so much fun serving the Lord and doing His work! Our two baptisms went really well. The spirit was amazing! I was a witness and then stood in the circle to give her the Holy Ghost! It was cool! We actually committed two more people yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO TIGHT! And hoping to commit two more this week! We are working hard and the Lord is blessing us!

IT’S SO COLD! I hate Oklahoma but love it! We are tearing it up and have being doing a lot of good! The lord is blessing us! Elder Motuaonly had one baptism but we are about to have four together! So we must be doing something right!

At zone conference President Gee called me up in front of 30 missionaries and had me talk about my basektball career and all this stuff, he related it to working hard! It was cool!

I think I am going to buzz my hair today! IT’S SO LONG! Everyone just buzzes it, so, we will see!

My companion is so, SO TIGHT! We have so much fun together. We work hard and keep the spirit with us at the same time! I know the lord is molding me into the missionary he wants me to be! I know the key to success is being humble and know that this is the Lord’s work, we don’t teach, the spirit does! I love having the spirit with me! It’s amazing! I have never felt it like this but I am going to make sure it stays! I had no idea it was going to be this hard!

My knee is messed up. I might have to have surgery on it! NO GOOD! We will see! It popped out of the socket the other day! IT HURTS SO BAD! It’s all black and blue! We have a doctor in our ward and he says it is messed up but I am just trying to work through the pain and hope it heals! It’s getting better but don’t know! We will see what happens!

My companion is getting his wisdom teeth out this week or next, so, I will have to take care of him! YEA, BRITT! I am getting it back in my face! You did such an amazing job of taking care of me when I had mine out! YOU ARE AMAZING!
