30th week




dang thats so cool Brennen your the man! its like getting in touch with your roots or something? wow cool beans!
so hi family
this transfer has gone by so fast its not even funny! its all ready been six weeks! and i turns out I'm staying and elder olinger is going to Texas. my new comps name is Elder Shupe and he is related to Doc shupe in our ward. garrets his cousin. which is cool that i get a chance to serve with him. elder olinger is super pissed off though. because this area is going so good now. and he wished he could have saw it through. but these kind of miracles could have happened the transfer before if he they would have worked harder. oh well. we have 4 baptisms set up for next month. 2 on march 10th 1 on the 24th and another on the 7th of April. all of them are super cool. and lots of uplifting awesomeness!
we had lots of lessons this week. and we had dinner every night! just a good week over all. i had to give the training in district meeting. and i gave it on inviting people to come unto Christ. because that's were missionary works begins is the invitation. because people aren't going to change unless invited to do so. it went ok. every one said i did good but i still think it could have gone better.
we had this lesson with this guy that wants to turn his life around. he was catholic but his brother had an "incident with one of the preachers" and so he said he is never going back. but he is such a cool  guy hes been around the block like six times. he sky dives and travels the world. he speak six languages and was married to a Brazilian. (i kind of think he is CIA but he says hes into flooring or something) but he wants to be baptized and were working our way to that.
i haven't spoken to the guy from Iraq in a while because he says he wants a Persian book of Mormon first so he can find out what it says before he continues on with the lessons. but that's OK we want him to be a solid investigator and not some flake no show. so we have a copy on order and it should be here in about a day.
no i haven't gotten the package yet but i haven't checked the mail today so it could be there. I'm super excited for it i can hardly spit. 
how is your Book of Mormon reading coming? i have read it 3 times on the mission so far and every time is the bomb! like one of my favorite books. just so many insights. i know for a fact that its not just some made up story. its real and it can help you in every aspect of your life!
lauren he is a couple ideas about the dance. 1. don't stress about it, it just makes it worse. 2. ask some one that you will have fun with and that you all ready know.(it makes it awkward when you don't have anything to say) 3. don't spend all your money. make it kind of informal.  you can ask them out alot of ways. Google it? (or take a bunch of guts, and say i finally had the guts to ask you out, lol)
i miss you guys so much and i love you all. don't have to much fun in Mexico without me.(is Lauren coming?)  and yea that will be great after the mish we will party like were purple!
love you
Elder Clements
A.K.A your favorite missionary.
