May 31, 2011

Mom,

It has been a tough week in the sight of missionary work. Our lessons fell off the deep end. We honestly taught no one this week. I have never tract so much in my life and I am so done with it for the rest of the month (good thing that ends tomorrow.)

Tell Dalton congrats for me for Graduation. It is a bummer that I am going to miss it but what can you do? Loyalty is to the Lord and then my family.

Elder Freeman is coming home already huh? And to think that he left just yesterday. Good for him to come home to beautiful Idaho. Yesterday we went on a hike and it was like I had jumped out of Cali and back into Idaho with all the shrubbery and beautiful creeks and such. Man do I miss Idaho. Crazy to think that tomorrow I will be 1/4 done with my mission already. Crazy huh? It has just flown by right on over my head. I am just having such a great time out here and its super tough but that is okay! The Lord blesses his servants so I better work hard huh?

Yes, yes I will get pictures as I always do. Some [baptisms] may be set back from others because of lack of keeping commitments on their parts but none the less they will be baptized! I love you mother and know that I am always thinking of you! Miss you lots!

  1. Oh my Koter, I can tell you have grown so much already. In some ways, I can't believe so much time has passed already, and in other ways it feels like years since we said goodbye. I am so very proud of you. You are such an example to me, little brother. I really do think of you many times through out the week, and many times when I do not feel like doing the daily things I know are right and will bring me closer to Heavenly Father, I think of you. I think I need to do these things because I don't want you to come home and be so far beyond me spiritually that I am left in the dust. I'm trying to keep up. I have often heard sometimes the most profound mission work that will be done on a persons mission won't happen in the field. I am gaining a personal testimony of the truthfulness of this statement through you. :) You're my hero. I love you so much. Keep up the glorious work.
    love,
    bec
