Oct. 20th - WOW, DUDE YOU HAVE CHANGED!!

Hey Momma, hurry and write back quick.  I got your package on Wednesday, it was great.  Thanks, I read your letter. And I love the sweater and tie.  I am wearing the sweater right now cuz its actually pretty cold here, it's been raining all week.

K, so this week was another long one. Lots of contacting but no one wants to come to church or do anything.  The thing that makes me so mad is that everyone knows what we teach is true they just like being lazy.  I guess everything works out when you are doing drugs, drinking and then going to mass on Sunday.  It's sad, but whatever.  I have learned a ton about just being diligent and working hard. Even though we don't see lots of results I know that the Lord will bless us pronto.  The mission is hard, but the best thing I have ever done.

Wow,  I can't believe all the stuff thats going on.   I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo fetchin excited that Kent Brown is the new stake president...Hahaha!! That's sooooooooo awesome. I love Kent Brown.  There is no one I would rather have release me than him.  I am gonna ask him if he can give me a calling in the stake teaching mission prep.  That's my dream calling.  NOTHING would make me happier when I get home that having a good calling in the church where I can continue to teach.  I would love to do something like that, I just want a calling that lets me teach still. I love to teach.

Something cool that happened this week. We had to go get shots from the doctor at the temple.  I got to go with W. and see tons of missionarys from our mission.  Some other missions were there too.  I saw a kid from DHS and he came up to talk to me and stuff.  We started talking and after a little bit he told me, "Wow, you're not the same Josh Gee anymore.  Your not crazy like in high school and you are way calm and mellow now"...Hahaha!!  It was pertty funny.  Before the mission,  me, John and the others would always say, "WOW, DUDE YOU HAVE CHANGED!" and it was a bad thing. But it actually made me pretty happy to know that the atonement changes people.  I don't know why but that was a cool experience for me. 

Momma, I love you tons and make sure to tell the fam that I love them tons and always think about them.  Love you.  I got to go, bye.   Pray for me big time cuz changes are coming up again and I have no clue what's gonna happen.  I don't know if I'm gonna stay here or not but we will see.

 

I love you so much, Mom.  I got to go...talk to you next week!!
