hello hello. family so whats up. this week was high flying awesomeness. you guys sounded like you had a good week to. O before i forget there is a family that wants to move to Utah in our ward. there looking for a house that has like three or four bedrooms. preferably south of salt lake city. we have been working with them for about 3 months and trying to get them to the temple. and to help quite smoking. but i told them i would ask around and see what i could find. so if you could send me some information or just keep your eyes open that would be great! but this week was good. on Monday we had zone pday. we played kick ball at the church. i got to see elder shupe again. so that was fun seeing him. i miss that kid no offense to any of my other comps but he was probably my favorite. it was really fun playing but the zone leaders were being sticks in the mud because they wanted to play basketball but no one else did. after that we had a specialized training meeting on the heavenly gift. we had to film ourselves knocking on doors and how we prayed and interacted with people. they were not real people so dont worry we just knocked on the church doors and another missionary would pretend to be the investigator. it was funny filming ourselves and all our weird facial expressions and the way that we talk. and i filmed elder charlesworth and elder otuafi and they are fighting like cats and dogs so they were not in unity the whole time and you could just tell that they hated each other on the camera. and elder charlesworth knelled down to say the prayer and he has this huge bald spot on the top of his head. but you cant normally see it because he is tall. so we were asked to sing in sacrament meeting on sunday. so we had to practice one night and we sang ill go were you want me to go. but no one would give us a ride to the church so we had to bike the five miles there. so about half way through elder jones asked if we want to race. so because i don't want that greeny to out run me i just start boo-kin it down the road im my highest gear. we reached speed over 25 mph down hill. but in the end i came out victorious. (yea take that new guy) elder dalia and beames were far behind and elder dalia is riding a bike that the bike shop rented him. and a car stopped right in front of him and he flipped over his handle bars. because his back brake wasn't working as good as the front. this is his second bike crash in like a week. but back to the singing, it was two high of a song for all of us to sing. and the lady was playing in a weird key so we didnt know how to sing it? so she yelled at us the whole time because we weren't singing it right. on thursday we taught this lady names sister charles. she is a really sweet older lady. she has been looking into the church for about a year but she never has joined because her husband is a preacher of another church. so we have been working with her. and our lesson went super great! she said that when she does bible study in her church she feels like she is not progressing and when she goes to our church she is learning more and she feels the spirit. and were like duh thats because your church doesn't have the fullness of the gospel. so we asked her if she prayed to know if the book of Mormon is true? and she said that she had and she knows that its the word of God. and she knows that god wants her to join this church. it was so fricken sick! i love how the gospel changes people. but she talked to her husband and he was shocked but she knows what god wants her to do. cross your fingers and pray to God that she gets baptized no matter what. we had the ward Halloween party/ Chile cook off. and that was fun. we got to be the judges and there was some really good Chile and some really bad Chile. the one that one had beef sirloin pieces in it and bacon. it was so good. and the worst one was a vegan flavor one. i think it had real vegans in it. on Sunday we sang in church and it was terrible. we sucked so bad you could see people shaking there heads and stuff. it was kind of dumb. every one sang really quietly and elder jones/ beames stopped singing half way through. just a bad song choice. than that night we had a baptism and me and elder dalia sang how can i be at that. and it was completely opposite. the spirit was in the air people were crying and the kids were excited to be baptized. they were two nine year old boys that there family is less active and we have been working with. just a good week all together. but thanks for all that you do for me and the ward back home. don't go less active or i will hunt you down. i would write more but elder johnson is waiting for a computer. i love you and i miss you and i will talk at you ladder. LOve your favorite missionary Elder Clements
