sounds like you had a great week. things have been great here. we just opened up a P.O. box so we can get mail now. it's
P.O. box 964
Wakefield, VA 23888

so there you go. so right now it's been going great here. yeah, confernce was kind of scary me and elder brockman have been talking about. a lot of talks seemed to be get prepared, the second coming is coming. it just seemed to have a lot of focus on it, so the probably the biggest message. also found out president monson like showtunes. i'm not sure what my favorite talk was but elder worthlin defiantly had the best joke. so saturday morning we were going out to go tracting and quess what, we had a parade here. elder brockman was tempted to call elder martz, the distict leader and tell him the world was ending, cause there was a large number of sirens going off. so we ended up going to the church early, because we couldn't do anything else. so it was intersting. theres something i want to tell you about elder martz. he been in the same area for almost a year now. it will be a year at the end of this transfer. it's crazy. but he loves the area. he is up in petersburg. then yeterday we had a zone meeting. that was fun. elder peterson and neilson are both in my zone now. it's werid tough, elder neilson is going home next transfer.

well tell jordan congradulations. i'm excited for him. we actually already had an apartment. we had it when we got here. the landlord told us that missionaries have moved in and out of that same one many times. yes we do have a grocery store. here's the funny thing. every area with a car is allowed fourty p-day miles. here's the sad part, we can walk to the libary, to the grocery store, and back to the apartment. we are that close to everything. there are a few fast food places, we have a subway and then we can go to th north and find a hardee's(carl's junior) and a mcdonalds. so there are places, but not much. we actually cover two counties here. sussex, and surry. we made it to the james river this week. but that's about it. oh and we also can walk to the church. it's pretty much across the street. well that's about it for this week. everything is going well here.
