WE JUST KEEP ON...KEEPIN ON!


Hey guys!

This week was about the same as the others! I feel like all we do is the same old tedious stuff! I wish there would be a change or someone new to teach. I think that is the hardest thing about missionary work. Well we will just keep on keepin on! 

We had a good day at church! We had dinner with a part member family and the husband who isn't a member showed up at church yesterday! We didn't see him until after sacrament meeting when he came up and said hi! I got the biggest smile on my face and he was surprised we even cared that he showed up! I told him he made my week by coming to church! He is such a nice guy and would be such a good member of the church I just don't know how we are going to get through to him! 

Unfortunately we were not able to teach A. this week because his family was so busy, but we set an appointment for this Wednesday! He is such a good kid. Him and his mom came to church yesterday and stayed for all 3 hours! I think the Mom is starting to realize the blessings you get for coming to church in not only her life but in her kids lives as well!

I have been starting to feel fall approaching. It is not a good thing - I am already getting cold! It got down in the 50's one day and was pretty windy and I was super cold! It should not be like this in September! There is already some snow on the surrounding mountains. Also people keep talking about how it is going to freeze soon whatever that means. I think it has something to do with their gardens? It doesn't sound like a good thing either so I hope it doesn't happen! No  -leaves haven't started to change yet. I am excited to see what fall looks like in person haha! I don't think I ever have.

I am glad you and Jessica are doing things together! I think that is great! I am also pumped that she did good on her talk! I wish I could have been there to hear it so bad!!!! I wonder who the kid was that came up to her? Ask her if he had a shaved head like almost bald. I think I might know who it is.

Man that is so cool to hear Ty is the new Young Men's President! 
He will be such a sweet leader!!! I wonder what kind of activities they will do with him in there! Maybe they will get to go to the black river again that would be way sweet. 
I found out Ty's nephew was trained by Elder Griffith, my first companion here in Cody! Elder Griffith is a good missionary and very strict, so I am sure Elder Hampton was trained well and will be an outstanding missionary! I hope I get to meet him at some point!

Well I love and miss you more than anything! I hope you have a great week!
-Elder Richardson



WEEKLY CHALLENGE:
Start preparing now for General Conference. It is a wonderful time to be able to hear from our church leaders and learn and grow in new ways as we strengthen our relationship with the Lord.
