dad, mom and family

nope cody cooper is from queen creek (or queens creek as the Canadians say) my friend that worked with me is tanner kay and he is in new york city Spanish speaking. dad we will definitely have to come back to the great white north! i absolutely love it up here!! and the people are great too!!! the people that we live with Bro and Sis Hagen are going to chandler for a week. (this week they left this morning) i gave them the home phone and mom's cell number. i think that they wanted to meet with the 2 of you while they were there. i cant believe that kianna ashlee and ammah have mission calls!!! that is crazy!!! i did get my package from grandma woodard. the zone leaders went to Calgary on Thursday and they got mail for us:) i like getting mail:) this week was really good. we taught 5 less actives/ recent converts (LARC for short) and we picked up 2 new investigators. finally!! they are from Korea and they run the local motel here. I'm not sure how interested they really are. we went over there to answer the questions that they had because they didn't know a whole lot about the church. they were really nice to us and seemed really sincere so we are going to keep pursuing until they get baptized or tell us to go away and never come back! (which never happens in missionary work because everybody gets baptized!!!) hahaha yup yup yup. we went to bow island this week too. it was pretty boring. we got there too late to go visit one of the potential investigators and the ward mission leader gave us a list of people to visit. and we asked if he invited any of them to meet with us and he said no. which is kinda frustrating cause he wants us to be successful out there cause we only go once a week but he isn't really doing anything for us to be able to be successful. but at least its a start. well i hope you have a missionary experience this week and hope you have a great week!!!

Love elder woodard!!
