Hello to everyone who loves missions, It has been getting hot and humid, definitely not my 2 favorite things that's for sure. This last weekend was incredible, there was a cold breeze coming in so tracting was fun. That's what we have been doing with a majority of our time. We don't have any investigators so we've been trying to do more finding so we can teach people in this area. Our finding has been kind of successful, we found this girl in Brookfield who was interested, she is a senior in high school and she loved the message we shared so hopefully we can teach her, and possibly some families but there isn't much teaching going on in this area, one thing we are really trying to work on. Last Thursday we got a call from the zone leaders and the Assistants to the president are coming on a split with the zone leaders in our area, the AP's want to see how all of our areas are doing and we really need help in Newtown. I have been praying for miracles and asking for guidance and I feel that we will find someone soon! Sunday we had interviews with President Morgan and he hinted to me that I'm probably going to be transferred next transfer (Which I'm fine with). It would be good to see other parts of the mission. President is an amazing man and it's sad that he is leaving is in July... I'm excited for president Smith! Monday was Memorial Day, so happy Memorial Day to everyone, we went to a ward picnic and ate a lot of food and socialized with the members and all that fun stuff. Ate some Ice cream, oh then tracted aha. We ran into a veteran who cussed us out on Saturday... But then we found an extremely nice guy who was pretty interested afterwards. Tuesday was fun, we have Zone conference coming up and we will be getting Facebook back around June 12th and everyone in the mission has to prepare a 5 minute talk on obedience which is a piece of cake. When you are obedient to the rules you are more successful, you are blessed. I'm excited to write the talk and receive wonderful training! There is a lot going on in the mission right now.. But that's pretty much it! I love our members, they like sending pictures to our families, and I love that! Life is great, missions are great and I'm having fun and sweating a lot. I now weigh 222.4lbs. I love this work and I have been studying preach my gospel a lot and chapter 2 where it talks about the role of the Holy Ghost in studying and when you study you should pray to have the Holy Ghost teach you while you read. I've noticed when I pray for the Holy Ghost my studies are amazing and I learn so much! I hope everyone has a wonderful week and stays cool! Sorry there are no pictures this week. Love, Elder Casper
Mom, Hello! My week has been great, and we have been doing a lot of tracting ha. Memorial Day was good, we went to a ward picnic and walked around and talked with members. I have been sick but now it's just allergies so that's fine. Our investigator is doing pretty swell, we haven't been able to meet with him for awhile, hopefully soon. We found some other cool people that hopefully will be interested. I really don't feel like I'm growing all that much but thank you so much mom! I have probably 25 pages left in my journal, not too much left but hopefully you can get me one soon! I remember I used the tall font! Haha. I can't believe Brandi will be working at dads office. Will she be answering phones and things like that? I love you! Love, Elder Casper
