August Missionary Letter

Monday, August 6, 2007
Hello to You All, Family, Friends and Supporters:

This will be quite short, because as they say, isn't a picture worth a thousand words? I'd rather look at pictures myself, and I'm sure you would too.

I just have one question. Where did May, June and July go? We are almost 100 days into our mission already, and that's hard to believe. I have never seen time pass so fast! There is no doubt that the pace here is very rapid, and there is always something to do and somewhere to be. I think we will be bored to death when we go home again!

On Wednesday, we begin our 3rd Transfer. That's mission talk for a 6 week period, when your assignments change on a daily basis. We have two new places to cover this time. Welfare Square and the Tabernacle, which we haven't served in before, and we're very excited about each of those. We hate leaving the Legacy Theatre and the Joseph Smith Movie, but hopefully we'll be back to that again someday. The other one we leave is Family Search. One of my favorites, but not particularly one of Ed's, although he's picking up some computer skills there. Like off - on - off - on. Just kidding.

I will include our schedule below here, so you'll know where to find us if you ever stop to see us. Many folks have done that already, and we're always so appreciative of our visitors on the Square, even though we don't have much time to visit with you. Here's where you'll find us!

Monday - Rover's - 9-3pm - could be anywhere on the square, covering for others, etc.
Tuesday -South Visitor Center - 3 - 9pm
Wednesday - Welfare Square - 10- 4pm
Thursday - Tabernacle - 3-9pm
Friday - P Day
Saturday - Westgate - 3-9pm
Sunday - Westgate - 9-1pm

The week of Aug 12-18th, we will be working in Park City at the Family History Center. We are both really looking forward to that one!

Above and beyond that, we're out to dinner with someone, playing golf a couple of times a week while the weather is good, or at home at 123 East 2nd Ave. Apt. 105, SLC. Ut.,84103
either studying something, cooking something, entertaining someone, or sleeping!
Phone at home is 801-596-2905. Ed's cell is 801-380-4615.

The missionary work is wonderful. Still massive amounts of people visiting from all over the world from every country. So many great people to visit with each day, who are very interested in "who they are", and "where they came from". It's the joy of our life to be here, and help them understand the answers to those questions, and to have made so many new friends.

Our best to each of you and yours.
