And ye shall go forth in the power of my Spirit, preaching my gospel, two by two, in my name, lifting up your voices as with the sound of a trump, declaring my word like unto angels of God. Doctrine & Covenants 42:6

Surprise! Bonus Letter



Today is our In-Field Orientation day, and because of that we have a really long lunch and dinner. So I had to write to my Branch President about the week, and since I had extra time I thought I would write you guys!

Since Monday a lot still hasn't happened. We have, however, committed four of our "investigators" to baptism, which is a lot more than a lot of people can say. We've teaching this one guy, Justin, in TRC and he is so fun to be with, but we've got no idea how to teach him! Whenever we start to talk about something gospel-related he always changes the subject. We've had some really interesting chats, but we can't make any progress with the guy. I'm not sure what to do with him, but we've only got one more chance to teach him before we leave, so I really want to do something.

I didn't know you guys were sending out these emails to people. I think that's awesome. Erika and Paul both wrote me yesterday and said that "it was awesome to read these emails" or something of the sort.

I'm sorry to hear about your purse being stolen. That really sucks. You've got to keep me posted. I hope that you can get reimbursed and such for the camera and the other stuff. Do you have to have another temple recommend interview because it got stolen?

It sounds like you all have had a good time with the family being around. It would be awesome to spend time with ya'll but I can't. Too bad. Tell Jackson Hi for me. I miss that awesome little dude. Have they been sleeping over at our house every night?

I've got kind of a random request. Could somebody either find a copy of the words from the Bad Lip Reading videos or write them down and send them to me tomorrow? Elder Bushman and I have been quoting them, but we can't remember all of them. If you could we would like the Mitt Romney one.

I'm not sure what else to write. If you guys have any questions make sure to ask me them in your letters. It would make this writing thing a lot easier, I'm not sure what you guys want to hear. And Lukas and Isaac, I want to hear from you guys! I loved getting all those letters those first few days, but now I feel all sad.

I love you guys!  Keep up all the good work you're doing!

Elder Rusty Bagoda
