Hey everybody!!!
Ok uh before I forget happy thanksgiving. Oh and Val and Jenni could you send some pictures of your kids to me. Seeing as how they are coming up on being 5 and 6 months old and the only pictures I have seen was when they were first born. Thanks holla at ya boy! So I have a cool story. Its called Typhoon Mina!!! So I was down in Toledo which is where the Zone leaders apartment is. And a Signal 3 typhoon hit here. haha It was so crazy. There apartment flooded up to the waist. All the missionionaries were out and about trying to pick up fallen down trees and stuff. And trying to save all the stuff in the Zone leaders apartment. They had to sleep at the Church. Lots of memebers did. I dont know how many homes got ruined but it was pretty bad. But everyone was ok. So that was my excitement last week. So yeah I think I am getting transfered. I am pretty excited about that. Getting a little tired of being out in the jungle away from everything. We do have 2 baptisms on dec 1 and 2 on december 15. That is pretty cool. and we had 58 members out to church on sunday which is definatly the most we have had. There are about 85 members in my area. So that is really good for us. I keep promising them blessings if they will come to church. This last sunday I told everyone at the church that I
will help them make a budget for their families with the Church's budgeting system. Its called "Every Needful Thing" I think that is what it is called. The whole Branch has a really hard time paying tithing so I told them and promised them that if they would come and meet with me for 30 minutes we would make them a budget so that they could pay their tithing and still be able to meet ends meet at the end of the month. Figure I might as well put some of my college classes to use while I am here. I thought everyone would be really excited about it but they werent as excited about it as I thought they would be. They probably just dont understand that if they budget they will do a lot better each month. Ha sometimes I still dont think I have learned that lesson. Sounds like you all had a good thanksgiving. I am thankful for all of you having a good dinner. I am thankful and Jealous. Me and the rest of the Americanos in my zone are having thanksgiving today. there is three of us. haha. sad. Sorry brian about your hand. I dont think it will ruin your golf swing. There was a movie called rookie of the year where a 13 year old kid broke his arm and because he did he could throw the ball 100 miles an hour and he played in the major leagues. Tiger Woods better watch his back because Brian Foy broke his and and now he has a perfect golf swing and is going to the PGA. In our wildest dreams no? hahaha Well thank you all so much for your prayers. Cant wait to hear from you all again next week.
Sincerely Elder Joel Porter Ehorn
