The weeks been great, my last one with Morrison...:(
Today we're having transfers, I'll get my first new comp. Aside from the Mtc. HIs names elder Watson and he's from Hawaii, He's been out just a little longer than me, about six months. So we'll see how things work out. I'm a little nervous, but excited. Elder Morrison's leaving to go to Murrieta where he'll be a zone leader and have a truck. I'm a little jealous. haha. But the bikes great, you can stay in shape. for the most part.
Thats alright, I hear inspiring things quite often. haha. So, its okay. hmmm..inspiring things from me..thats kinda hard to spit out right on the spot, but one thing i can say, is time and talent is sometimes more effective than scripture alone, one thing ive learned is that its hard to move forward and teach when people don't know you or feel comfortable around you, so sometimes its more effective to start slow, and ease into lessons over time. Thats just one thing i've notice. it may or may not be inspiring. lol. But yeah, so far my missionary experience has been great, i'm finally starting to get to know the people in the area better. Anyway, I'm about out of time, I should probably go.
Bye!

I've been doing pretty good, just going with the flow, preaching the word, having a good time. The usual. Its been a great week, we've been driving around in a truck most the week, so thats been nice.
School already started around here, its really weird seeing tons of kids walking the streets.
Yeah, I bet that will be nice to get back to a schedule. My mission schedule is basically the same as you described yours, busy busy busy. Buts its nice knowing what you're gonna do everyday, and your right the sleep is great, you're always wanted more. lol. And yes, we go on splits with members/ward missionaries just about every night from 7-9. Tues-Fri. Its nice cuz we can cover more ground and see more people. but at the same time its frustrating sometimes cuz some of the team-ups we get tend to ruin lessons because they get way too deep on certain subjects and don't know when to stop. In theory splits are amazing though, especially since we're normally on bikes.
Well, I've gotta go now. Thanks for writing! :)
Love Elder Farnsworth

Nope, I haven't been transferred yet. Still in Elsinore! they haven't seen the last of me. lol. I really love it out here, The weathers actually been a lot better lately as well, It makes me happy, especially when I'm out there riding my bike. I have a few mission stories, but about a minute to write, so...that'll be hard. lol. one thing that was funny was when an old lady tried to seduce my companion it was sooo funny, maybe I'll tell you more about that in the future.

DAAAANG Thats awesome! Thats soo cool(that Jodi got her mission call). I wish I was there to see her open it. Just a couple more months...wow.
And yes, I do have Jesus the Christ. Ive read a little bit of it and I really like it, but sometimes it gets hard to focus on that. There are so many things I want to study, and eventually i want to focus my study on Jesus the Christ, but I think I'm gonna wait till Ive mastered the basic principles in PMG. There are so many little things that I can touch up on, so i'm gonna take it one step at a time.
Yeah, pictures would be nice to have, cuz like you said people like to see. plus, ive got some pictures of friends, that ive gotten in letters. but none from family so nobody knows what my family looks like.
Sorry I haven't been sending many pictures. I need to take some more. So, i'll send some next week.
Well, Thanks for the letter!!!
