Snow and No Car




Pics:

Lexi was baptized by her uncle last Saturday, she's very excited about
the Gospel, and her older Sister Shaely is showing interest in
learning more!

Typical missionary apartments, but some Elders, like Elder Keel and
Ericksen in rock Springs, live in a castle with many priviledges :)


Today we had to turn our car in to the shop to get repaired. If I
didn't tell you before, an elder before I arrived here had the smart
idea to try and drift the car in the ice, and ended up spinning out
and smacking the driver's side of the car into a fence...you can
imagine my feelings towards this individual as I learned our car will
be worked on for over a week, and we will have to walk during the day.

Snow came on Saturday. It dumped on us! We're back to sunny skies, but
another storm is coming tomorrow. This week was a grueling one. We
found many new people to teach, but then four of them called and told
us they did not want to meet again...dang! We had to let of few others
go as well, they just were not progressing and didn't want to make
changes now in their lives. BUT! tonight we are seeing a family. Dad
is a member, but mom and none of the children are. They were excited
to see us at their door one night, and we pray that they will want to
continue to meet with us.

In one of the wards we cover, there is a Scottish woman! She met her
husband over there, a cowboy from Evanston Wyoming, and the two of
them decided to get married and to live here. She's an older lady,
bright bright red hair! She has the accent and all. I told her I'll be
coming over to talk about Scotland and to have her show things from
Scotland to me! I'm pumped, a Scot here in Wyoming, oh yeah!

LOVE,

Elder Scotty
