Hey Mom and Dad,
Thanks for your email! That´s awesome you got to see Aunt Janet and Adam before he leaves. Wow that is crazy to think how long we´ve all been out on missions and soon Adam will be out too! Man time sure flies. Seems like just yesterday we were all in grandma´s house for our last Christmas together before we all leave. And wow Amy wants to leave now? That´s awesome. That´s funny that Anna and Walker were asked to speak randomly in Stake Conference. That´d sure be nerve racking. But that´s kool sounds like everyone knows they´re engaged. And that´s neat to know the memory of our class may still help the youth. High school is such a crazy rollercoaster time of life and the examples of others can help so much. I guess that´s kind of the cycle of life. When we were younger we always looked up to the older generations and their valiant examples and that helped us push forward. It´s nice to know that maybe we left something to follow for the rest.
A new family moved into our ward a couple of weeks ago. It´s a young couple who were baptized about 6 years ago. Apparently the missionaries knocked on their door but they didn´t want to know anything about them so the husband lied and told them they were Jehova´s witnesses, lol. But soon enough something about how the missionaries shared the gospel caught their attention and they were baptized. Now they´re an amazing family that brought their neighbor to church so we´re teaching her. With just two weeks in the ward the husband was just called to be young men’s president and the wife teacher of the young single adults. It´s always fun to visit them because they always have hymns playing and want to give us dinner :). It´s a nice thing in the mission because you get to see so many different families and you can truly feel the difference of how the Spirit dwells in some homes so much more than others. You realize the things you should do to create that atmosphere.
Alright well, I´d better get going. Thanks for your letter. Oh I almost forgot we did move in to the new apartment and it´s amazing. Though it´s kind of fun because in front there is a Catholic school and it seems every morning before classes they have kind of an assembly right outside the building but still surrounded by the walls. This morning we saw a fun assembly honoring the Virgin Mary, lol. They carried in a mini statue of her with music playing. The kool part was they had fireworks going off at the same time :P.
Alright well I hope you have a great week! Love you!
Love,
Elder David Frome
