Letter 15:: 1/14/ 2013


Well first of all that is really sad to hear about Troy, did not know
 him very well but he is family and it breaks my heart to hear about
 that. It true, like you said the gospel is real. It is actually
 something I have been thinking about alot this week. One of our
 investigators who we have not talked to in awhile and who is really
 depressed with his life right now sent us a text a couple of days ago
 basically saying that he was going to die and to pray for him. Me and
 my companion were shocked and said a quick prayer, and as we started
 walking I honestly started getting angry at the adversary. This
 investigator is a really great guy and he just sees what is wrong with
 him. I was really frustrated thinking about how it is the adversaries
 goal to make us forget about who we really are. We are children of
 God, he is our Father, and he loves us, more than anyone can
 comprehend. And satan just makes us feel like we are worthless and it
 is never true. " The Worth of every soul is great in the sight of
 God". That is something I have struggled with is being to hard on
 myself but I know that God loves us and has a plan for everyone to
 return to him one day.
 I will definately keep the Bakers in my prayers. Let them know I love
 them so much!

 Please also keep our investigators in your prayers. They really need
 your help. I am just beginning to understand how important these
 people and what this Gospel will do for them.
 Mom that was great to hear about Teran Manos homecoming. It really
 helps a lot to know that if we do our best to seek we will find those
 prepared. This week we worked really hard. And we had an amazing
 experience.

 Well two days ago our car died, it may or may not have been my fault..
 :) and we were kind of far away from everything and could not do much
 so I decided to try and make a call to one of the referrals we had.
 THis was the first time I have called a refferalls . I am really good
 at doing the other calls because I have the general part of the
 conversation memorized but this one I didnt. I called him, it was a
 completely different person but someone how i was able to set up an
 appointment with him the next day.. gift of tounges. then I realized
 we already had an appointment at that time... ugh.. so we made a plan
 to go on splits with some men in our branch and we were able to do
 it;. Long story short, we found an investigator who is so prepared to
 hear the gospel, and he accepted a baptismal date on Feb 10!! :) so
 cool. It was just testimony to me on how God has a plan and he used
 the weak and simple to do it. It was nothing that I did on my part
 except try my best and God made up for a lot of the difference. It is
 cool.

 Oh ya it is stinkin wierd that I will be 20... but ya interesting...
 ok so with the gps I think option 2 is the best also just that I can
 only pick it up on wednesday. we can go to that address too but I am
 pretty sure that is the right one. Thank you soo much!! :)
 BUT I should probabaly get going, I love you all so much dont have to
 much fun without me :)
 Bye. Elder Boyer
