Email from Mom

 Hey William,

Just had a couple thoughts to share after reading your emails.  One scripture that caught my attention this week with our Come Follow me study was 1 Nephi 8:33-34  When Lehi talks about the people in the large and spacious building pointing their fingers and mocking them, but they heeded them not.  Then in the next verse it says: For as many as heeded them had fallen away.  It just made me think of all the lies that Satan tells and how we need to heed them not.  There are more and more people that we know and love that are leaving the church and I think that is why this scripture hit me today.  Here is a great talk from Elder Bednar about Heeding them not.  

I love that scripture you shared, Jacob 7:5.  It made me think about the dream I had the other night.  I had a pretty vivid dream with Grandpa Great in it.  We were at Grandma's house just visiting in the kitchen and he just walked in and started talking.  I can't remember what he said, but I remember that I was like, wait, Grandpa's dead, how is he here?  I think we have angels that we love with us all the time cheering us on and helping us everyday.  As I was in between being asleep and awake, I just had this thought like Grandpa was telling me "William's going to be great.  Don't worry, he's a fine young man."  Maybe it was my own thoughts after wishing I could spend more time in that dream with Grandpa, but I like to think it was him telling me that he's watching out for you and helping you.  
Love you bud!  Have a great day.
Love,
Mom

Ive got lots of practice now.  It is once again the day of tues This morning, we just went to the church and made programs for Gayle's baptism. It took like 2 hours for us to figure out how to make the printer work, but we figured it out. On the way back, i was eating some pretzels, and the age-old question came to mind: What are pretzels? We eventually came to the conclusion that pretzls are just crunchy bread Elder Potokar is such a cool dude. We just did a bunch of finding in his area, and it was a party. We saw this abulance and fire truck pull up in a neighborhood we were at, and it turns out a kid crashed on his bike, and his handlebar went through his leg. I dont know how it happened, but we talked to some of his friends who wer

this isn't my weekly email, but here's this for you guys tuesday for breakfast I had some yogurt, i put toast in the toaster but I forgot to eat it. so now its still there. this morning we had to postpone personal study so we could go help this dude named Johnny. Johnny has no legs and he stockpiles a bunch of toys so he can give them out to kids. the problem is that none of them were sorted. they were all mixed in with eachother. so we went through them all and sorted them by gender and age group and all that fancy stuff. after that we went to the food bank to go help out again. we had a lot of people there so we pretty much just stood around in the cold for two hours. lunch was subway. I figured we should probably start using our subway giftcards... we have a grand total of 100 bucks in subway gift cards. after lunch we drove to Mayo to go say hi to a bunch of referals. there was this one guy who filled out a request for us to come by (he was also legless... if I had a nickel
