Don't Take the Gospel for Granted!

Hello my wonderful parents! how are you guys doing?!?! It sounds like you are having a great time with football and stabbing yourselves with wooden spoons and such!! lol! Man things are getting hard right now!! We are teaching the most amazing people at the moment but my companion is a hoser! I still get along with him and all but he just doesn't understand charity... he is out here to force baptism on the world instead of loving them and helping them change... hrrrrp. So things have been way different for me. Ever since elder Clyde left things kind of took a 180. I think just to see if I could handle it... and I can no worries, but just pray for Elder Ashton's heart to soften and for him to have a little more charity. We are teaching a guy right now that came to church on Sunday and loved it. He asked us if he can bear his testimony next Sunday and if he can give a talk in church some time. :D He is so freaking golden! He was raised a Christian.. practicing Muslim.. and found out he was a Jew by birth.. LOL!!! He has practiced all those and more! But he told us that no one have ever been able to answer his questions in a way that makes sense except for us.. and he was telling us on Sunday how grateful he is to have found the true church after searching for 60 years!!! So DON'T TAKE THE GOSPEL FOR GRANTED!!! Eh you hosers!!! No but he has built up my testimony so much! His name is Richard Powell and he is just awesome!! We are teaching a very cool young couple as well.. so we might get 3 baptisms this month!!! woohoo!!! That would be way cool! But you know I thought teaching people the word of wisdom and the law of chastity would be hard but really when you teach them the restoration and you love them then the spirit teaches them those things on the side and by the time you get to them they pretty much have already accepted it.. and its so fun to see!! But those investigators are what keep me sane!! :D!! I love you guys so much! I didn't get the package yet but there was no mail on Monday and so that's why I am emailing today... so I will probably get it today.. so no worries!! But hey I hope you guys are having a really good time! I love you guys so much! Thanks for all that you do for me! I love ya! Take care!
Love, Elder Penman
