Hi Mom!
I'm doing well! I'm glad you all got there safe. Hehe Garretts a gorp. Did he throw up?
We had a solid week this week. On Tuesday, we got to go up to Talkeetna for service. Talkeetna is an hour and a half drive north of Wasilla. Willow, who is in our district, covers Talkeetna so we had a service opportunity up there. Me and Elder Furnell, one of the Willow elders, built a porch and started another one. Elder Gentry and Elder Kapelila moved a bunch of stuff. I guess that's what happens when you are as big as a grizzly bear. Then they fed us awesome burritos. They have the World's hottest hot sauce. I decided to put several drops (8) on a burrito and eat it. That was fun!!!..... Also Elder Gentry stepped on a nail and had to get a tetanus shot.
We tracted into a really cool guy. His name is Bob. We have been doing service for him... Like every day, but yesterday. He is always asking if we want to ride his Harley's and ATV's and his other toys.... I wish it wasn't against the rules! He's got everything known to man. He also wants to take us fishing. Good thing we can do that!
We have been cleaning the outside of his house, building a trailer, moved stuff, etc. etc. he's had 5 back surgeries and is still recovering. He's awesome! We had met him 2 days earlier and he already trusts us with everything he owns basically...
Stephanie's baptism is this Saturday! She's been out of town that last week and a half so we will be rushing... It will all work out but it is getting down to the wire.
I gave a talk on missionary work in the Memory Lake Ward this Sunday about missionary work! A lot of miracles came out of it. A lot of people came up with referrals or saying they have potential people for us to teach. In total Sunday, I think we pulled out 15-20 names for people to visit and teach! What a miracle! We also had a lot of people asking for stuff so they can share and invite! Yay!! Also it was supposed to be a 5 minute talk..... It went about 25 minutes....
We burned Elder Elliot's pants for his 18 month mark yesterday. We did it by the river. This time, there was hundreds of King Salmon running up the river! I wish I was fishing! They were anywhere from 10 pounds to 40+ easy. It was sweet! First time I got to see that in Alaska.
The work is progressing!!!!! Things are going well. Miracles are happening. Have a good week! I know we will.
Love,
Elder Hayden Frey
