It was good to get some big letters from you this week!! Sounds like everyone is having a blast. That is awesome that some of you got to hear Colton on Sunday and I am sure it was awesome. There was a missionary in our zone that went home to Idaho last week and he has already come back to visit. He kind of reminded me of Colton but Im sure he can go more than a week without returning hahaha. Those were some really funny pics you guys sent me, especially the one of Mom haha how did you get that?

This week we had the Doctrine of Christ training with Pres. Ware and the AP's. It is a training that missionaries go to in their 2nd transfer in the mission field. We were originally going to do it in Quincy like we did last transfer but the ZL's called and said that we would need to get a ride to Kennewick because they cancelled the training in Quincy. So we had a member of our ward that drives to Kennewick for work take us down there and a couple that works in the temple that lives in Moses Lake take us back after the training. I saw my MTC comps there. Elder Tays was laughing after we met them because they are pretty interesting. Thank goodness it was only 12 days haha. President Ware gave us a shout out in front of everyone about how awesome we are doing in Moses Lake.

We took a member of the bishopric in 7th ward out with us on Friday night. Not many people answered the door but we got in to see Tristan because Bro. Welty is also the seminary teacher and he needed Tristan's Mom to sign a waiver for him to take seminary. We had a good conversation with her and she said that she has already noticed a lot of positive changes in Tristan since he joined the church. It was really good to hear her say that and we will see if she becomes interested. We also ran into this guy named Ezgar in the parking lot of our apartments and he agreed to let us come teach him the restoration this week.

PEC was very effective in 7th ward yesterday. Bishop Allred is very excited about the missionary work happening in the ward and we are setting up a program with the ward. Every tuesday night someone from the elders quorum will come out with us. Thursdays a high priest will come and saturday afternoons we will have priests join us. We need to do better at scheduling solid appointments so that we can match up our investigators and less actives with the member that is coming out with us.

That is exciting about Rory winning the British. He is my favorite player and even better that he beat sergio. The course in Moses Lake is really good. It is comparable to Thanksgiving Point except probably not quite that good. The front nine is really long though. It has a little more links to it than Tpoint too. That priest quorum temple trip should be awesome! Where are you at in the Book of Mormon? I am excited to hear where Riley and Benson are going on their missions.

Have fun in Canada. Tell Cassidy congrats and tell Colton hey and thanks for setting a good example for all of his cousins. The gospel is true.

Love, Elder Newbold (Hunter)
