 mom and family eh!?!
well its a really good thing that we are emailing late today. we don't have pday today cause we went to the temple on Friday!!!! it was a really neat experience to go to the temple. i learned a lot from the temple! I'm starting to think that family history is really important! that was just one of the things that really struck me in the temple and the talks in sacrament meeting were on that as well.  sister scow is right though. we need to be able to balance our time wisely. we like to share "choose this day" by Henry b eyring with the members and really focus on the promises at the end of the video clip (its a mormon message) well tell tanner that he cant drive until he has his eagle. oh and tell him that he can do what ever he wants with that little motorcycle. he can sell it or keep it for himself. i don't really care what he does with it.  mom HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!! sorry i wont be there to celebrate it with you.  the work here is going good and slow. we only have one investigator cause our other one was baptized. its  a little frustrating not being able to teach people. oh well guess that's part of the job. our one investigator that we do have is doing good though. she came to church yesterday and brought a friend with her. the only problem is that her dad just left for work and we don't know when he will be back! oh well we will still try. well i hope you have a great week

dear mom and family,
well our baptism was good. she didn't go under the first time so we had
to do it again. her name is Christina. she is from Sudan and it was
just her getting baptized. a member of our ward preformed the
ordinance. we also had one of our other investigators come to church
which was a miracle because we haven't had much contact with her this
week! i will send pictures next week. i forgot my camera at the
apartment! dad said Hayden had a little spill. oh well that's part of
riding i guess. that little bike is fast!  looks like you have had
lots of fun! where did you go shooting at? did you go down past copper
basin? me and my companion are having a blast! we get along great and
are having fun and working hard at the same time! we should have
another baptism or 2 this month if things go according to plan. which
they never do but it will this time! hope you have a great week

love elder woodard

Here is part of dad's letter telling Jordan who won the super bowl!

Happy P-Day!
 If the Nephites were the Giants and the Lamanites were the Patriots,
and the Nephites and Lamanites had a great battle on Sunday. The
Nephites would win 21-17. It would have been a great battle also! How
is that? I don't want to be too distracting.
......Love, Dad

January 30, 2012

mom and family,

Well we had an experience last night that i wouldn't want anybody to go through.

Well last night was a testimony builder of how real evil spirits are.  A less-active called us last night about 2:30 AM and said that her husband was acting very strange. She told us that he would go into a trance and do really weird things than come out of it and not know what was going on. When she was explaining what was going on I could just feel the evil spirits through the phone. I told her to call bishop and she did. Bshop called us as well that night and said that there was some evil going on and that he had been drinking. After that phone call with the  LA we had to bless our apartment cause it just didn't feel safe. We had a rough sleep last night. but on a brighter note Christina came to church and she is going to be baptized on Saturday!! Oh ya we also received a bread maker yesterday from some members!!!!! We are going to be making bread and such!!! It should be fantastic!  Yup we will be getting a new mission president in July. Should be fun i hope! That's all we do is try to get the members to invite their friends. So just go and invite them and bear testimony that it will bless and change their lives for the best. Just get them feeling the spirit and they will come around! Hope it goes well for you!
love elder Woodard
