Hey Mom, Dad get on the email bus!

So thank you everyone this week who wrote me. Namely:
Patrick
Tyler
Lindsey
Nana and Pappy

Hey David, Mary, Mom, and Dad don't seem to appear on this list.. Oh right.... that's because they didn't write me! Rebuke! Haha. But ok back to news. So this week was amazing! I have my first baptism this Saturday! Daisy and Fatima passed their interviews this week and Daisy has asked me to give her the Gift of the Holy Ghost! So I guess I am going to have to learn how to do that. But it is alright becaue all of that stuff is in the white handbook so I will live. :) But anyway this week is Daisy and Fatima and two weeks from now is Archie (or Akbar I can't remember what I called him last week)! He is golden! He just needs to read and pray about the Book of Mormon and everything will work out. :) But we brought him one in Farsi this week (he is from Iran did I mention that?) so I think it will happen. :) Oh funny story! So we were waiting for a bus one day and we found that we had like 15 min till it arived. So Elder Montgomery and I decided to knock a few doors. One of the houses actualy just let us in! Like no return apointment thing.... just come on in I would love to hear about God's plan of happiness. It was amazing! But then we got inside and it was a Born Again Christian religious meeting :P. So we sat down and they pretty much interrogated us on our beliefs and one of them told us how Jesus appeared to him and he walked with him and learned for about a year. It was interesting but it got to about 10 min before the next bus came (the next one not the 15 min one from the biggining) and so we asked if we could close with a prayer and this man offered to say it. We missed the bus. He prayed for like 20 min and like the others were all "yes Lord(ing)" in the backround. One guy was even babbleing in tongues. Well time is up I have to get back to work(ish) because it is Pday. Oh, if anyone has any good recipies that would be easy and cheep and delicious I would love to get those. :)
