Scouts R Not Us


 I did not get transferred and I am still with Elder Wells but I did get released from district leader.  Elder Rambo has it for his last transfer and he only has 4 weeks left because he is going to go to BYU-I and it starts before his six weeks are up so I might get called back when that happens.  President did say that I will get another shot but I’m glad that I don’t have to plan district meeting anymore.    I hope that maybe in the near future I could be a zone leader but it’s whatever President and the Lord wants. I have been scaring myself lately, I’ve been thinking about next summer and it scares me.  

A really cool thing happened this week.   I don’t think I talked about him much but Dustin B and his daughter a former investigator in Bowles Grove got baptized on the 24th!  It was really cool.  I gave a talk on the baptismal covenant and was a witness.  It was so exciting and I was so happy.  I should be getting pictures from Elder Chef because my camera died when I was getting pictures so I got a few but none of Dustin! 

Why in the heck would anyone ever want to be scout master?  I was actually thinking about that this week if I ever get called to be one what I would say to the Bishop.   I thought it would go something like this:  Bishop, I have been taught that I should never refuse a calling so I’m not, but I have to let you know that I really will not like doing this. I am probably the worst Eagle Scout ever!  I hate scouting so much.  There was an article in the Church News about scouting and all I did was just bash on the guy in the picture with the silly brown shirts.  I think if they new how I felt about scouting they would take my award away, but it’s whatever.  It sounds like the parade went well.  On the 23rd I was thinking, dang there is a sweet parade going on right now and I’m missing it.

That’s cool about Andy.  I like Andy a lot, he is an awesome guy. Are they going to be in the ward for a while still?  I thought they were moving? But that’s cool I think about them a lot. How are Ray and Blake and those guys?  

I have to go so I will talk to you more next week.  I need you to send some stuff, a book that has missionary stories and some snake food and pictures. Thanks, love you, BYE 

(I hope he meant SNACK food! )
