Y'all Gonna Be Mad At Me

Dear Family and Friends,

I know I'll be in trouble with at least one of you (Mom) for doing
this, but this will be another very short email.

First cool thing, Mitchell has decided that he is ready for baptism
and has had his first interview! It was such an amazing lesson, to see
his countenance change and all the wait he has been carrying fall
away. He finally realized the difference between being imperfect and
being unworthy. So important!

We were able to get up and see Jim Neaves, the bow maker, again. He
has dropped us and asked us not to teach him, but there is still a
friendship and a bond there, so we went up to see how he was doing. It
was a wonderful visit, and it was good to see him again.

Went on an exchange with Elder Porter! (The one taking selfies at the
interviews) He is a good missionary and we saw miracles. One of the
miracles was that we got to see Jordan again! It is not very easy to
catch him at home, but we did! He has been reading the Book of Mormon!
He had a few questions about the origin of the Book of Mormon and
Joseph Smith, which we were able to answer to his satisfaction. It was
cool. On the way home we felt a prompting to stop by our next door
neighbors and talk with. When we got there he was grilling some steaks
(yes at 8:30 PM. Here in Montana they cook meat whenever they feel
like it haha) and was visibly distressed. We began talking with him
and he opened up about all the problems he was having and how hard
things were. We were able to testify of the love Christ has for him and his
perfect plan. He kept saying, you'll probably be hearing from me
again.

We did have other cool experiences but I don't have enough time.
Sorry! I love you all very much.

Love,
Elder Thomas
