This is what we do and we don't care if you like it.

We had Elder Neilson from the Seventy come and train and address us. He's a really cool guy. We all thought he was there to survey our mission for iPads, but nope. He told us that he has no idea when we're getting iPads, but that the Twelve will meet in August to discuss which missions would be next. I'll be at 18 months by that point, so I'm just whatever about the whole thing. I went a year and a half without it, the Lord is obviously thinking that we're doing fine or that we're not there yet, either way, I'm down. I'm just tired of hearing other missionaries rant on and on about how they heard a rumor from the office or from a friend of a friend about how we're about to get approved. Missionaries are such gossips. That's probably been one of the hardest things for me to get used to or over, other missionaries. They are totally called by the Lord and do amazing things, but they are some straight up dumb individuals sometimes. So, this really is inspired work, because I firmly believe that no other organization that rest so fully on the backs of 18-26 year olds would be as successful as the missionary effort of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Our church baptized about 300,000 people a year. It took from 1830-1930 to baptize the first 300,000. That's one hundred years. So this is inspired work. Anywho, we're baptizing Mon'ia this Saturday and then we're going to baptize a lady named Kim later this month. She almost got baptized a couple of months ago but she wouldn't stop drinking, but now she's been sober for 6 weeks. We've just got to get her to church and re-interviewed. 
Peace, 
Sweet blasphemy, myself, and I.

Dejunking! I hope he does something with it, I don't want it to come home with him!
