Priesthood Power

Email to Dad:

Hmmmm this week has been the same as all the other weeks really. Ive been having some trouble with my knee and ankle, I have bad joints if it keeps bugging me ill ask to get it checked out.  I haven't been able to sleep very well.  I am such a night owl I cant stay awake during the day but at night I just have so much energy! So I want to send some European sweets back to you guys in December I don't know how much it will cost but that will be my present to you guys:) who wants chocolate and who wants something else? I learned some things about the priesthood and how it works. its hard to explain but the talk is called the bread and milk of the gospel. the guys name is weird too but if you're interested its a very cool talk. Love you

Well this last week has been almost the exact same as last week. super boring and nothing happening. we did teach a lesson to one girl but i think shes more interested in the fact that we are American rather than the fact that we are trying to save her soul. I listened to a talk yesterday by a professor and he was talking about where God got his power and where our priesthood power comes from! its changed how I view the priesthood and makes me want to be more worthy to use it. It was so weird after i understood how it works so many different things in the gospel clicked and made so much more sense. it was called the bread and milk of the gospel if you wanna look it up. I don't know if you already know about it or not but it was amazing. Also we had zone meeting this week and I got to chill with all my other missionary friends! There's a kid from my group named Elder Severe, he's such a lad! me and him are so rowdy (in a good way) we just try to make people laugh and have a good time! hes companions with Elder Packer (the apostles grandson) hes cool as well. This week hopefully will be better. there are moments where my companion is cool for like 10 minutes then he goes back to his old self. its weird. anyways that's it for this week. LOVE YOU
