No, I do not want you to do that. Tell Brad thank you so much for the letter and tell him thank you for just being an awesome guy and that I appreciate all he has done and that only the righteous and faithful are blessed with trials. And because of his attitude and enduring through everything faithfully I know for a fact he and his whole family will be blessed beyond their belief.
Also tell the Groneman's thank you so much for the cookies and that I'm working on a letter for them right now!
영세대학교 한국어 학당 편 Have Derek read that or just google translate
it but that is the book I would love to have. Also if you go to
BestfromKorea.com you can get a electronic dictionary. My Mission President emailed me and said they're very expensive in America and a
lot harder to find and gave me a website to look for them. Also my
Teacher Brother Lund suggested that you get me the brand iriver or
nurian make sure is goes from Korean to English and English to Korean.
I still am flying alone. There is no one going
to the same mission as me right now so I'm a solo missionary. My schedule
changed, I still fly out at 8:45 but I have to leave the MTC at 3:30am!!!!! so I'll have a lot of down time. I'll call you! I get time again to email
you tomorrow so I'll share some stories then! Thank you for the
package it was the best one yet.
Thank you so much mom, I love you from
here to mars to back and once more to mars!

Tell Grandma I sent her a letter but it was sent back because the ink was smeared! Also tell her that my teacher knows her. His name is Carson Lund he grew up in Gunnison! I'm pretty sure his dad's name is Kim but I can't remember his mom's. He had a brother who was inactive for a long time and same with his dad but his dad joined the church while Carson was on his mission. His dad owns some sort of trucking company in Gunnison?
In the box I'm sending home I have a letter in it for Uncle Bud. I'm also
not sending my backpack home till after I get to California because when riding bikes
I might need it. Can you get the Jorgenson's address and tell them Hi, also will
you tell bishop that when I get to California and can actually print pictures I'll be
sending home a pretty studly picture to go up on that big 'ol white board of
his!
So much has happened these last couple weeks I wish I could just send you
my journal to read. Since being here I've been so much more in tuned with the
spirit and I honestly love it. I think I came out here off of your testimony and
other people's testimony that I was close with. It was great that those little
anchors were there for me and to help push me the right way. And I will forever
be grateful for being blessed with such amazing examples. But no matter what;
you just can't continue to strive towards being fully converted unless you have
a testimony of your own. And being at the MTC I've truly and diligently read the
scriptures not just because I'm supposed to, but because I had questions and
wanted answers! It's crazy how the Book of Mormon truly has the answer to
everything in life in it. I've had a question for 5 months now and it wasn't
until last night at 1:30am in the hallway of our residence when I bore my
testimony to a certain Elder who I saw in the hall way because I had to pee. He had his bag packs wanting to go home. Today he told me how much he
learned and how he knows he needs to stay and how I strengthened his testimony.
In all honesty, he is the one who strengthened my testimony. Because of that
experience I got the answer to my question and realized I knew the answer to the
question the whole time I was just looking and searching in the wrong ways. They
weren't bad ways but they just were not the ways The Lord wanted me to find out.
I love you mom and know how much you will be blessed for being the example you
have set. I am so grateful for you in my life. Thank you, I love you.
