Letter #2

Hey,
So glad you guys liked it! Its hard to describe some things.

I should be working harder but I am figuring it out. All of our mock
teaching appointments are getting better. This training is actually
starting to take hold and help me teach. I teach alot with Alma 7: 7,11-16.
Awesome. I'm becoming a master at four square and getting better at
basketball. I left my teva shoes at home I think and if it's not too
expensive it would be great if you could send them to the mission home.

My companion and I are both type A personalities so sometimes we have to
just be cool with each other. I will have to work on that. I have given two
blessings since I have been here. One to my companion, and one to Sister
Thompson from my district. She pulled me aside and told me how much she
appreciates me and my example and such (don't worry shes like 23).

Elder Holland came last night! His talk was amazing, mainly yelling. He
was talking about how dispicable it was that missionaries do everything
they can in the first five minutes they get home to not look like a
missionary. He talked about the role of the Book of Mormon in conversion. He
said the spirit is not only the comforter, but it's provocative (how people
say the spirit made them bear their testimony on sunday), and the spirit is
eternally clean.

I sung in the choir! We sang the best version of Come Thou Fount ever!
MTC choir, great memory.

Ok so next Wednesday I want to know about Beau's eagle project and such.

Travel plans: leave next Wednesday at four AM. Stop in Minneapolis. Then
Des Moines, where the mission pres will personally pick us up. We have six
guys including me that will be on the flight.

love you guys!
Elder Tall
