ADDITIONAL COMPANION, ELDER PAGE & NEW FAMILIES TO TEACH!

A picture of Elder Page and I... it ain't much but it's a picture.

Elder Zuniga and I have another companion. His name is Elder Page. He's pretty sweet. It's nice to be able to talk to someone about music, haha.

I'm doing well. We found a few actually married families this week that we are going to teach, so we'll see how that goes (: I"m pretty excited about it (: Pray for Ozwald's family especially. I'll tell you about them next week.

I love you and thank you for like eeeeverything!

Love,
Elder Chase

AMAZING INVESTIGATORS, ELECTIONS & WRITING SONGS WITH ELDER PAGE

My tripanionship... it looks like an album cover for some punk band.

I met this guy. He was in Enter the Dragon with Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris, so that was cool.

Elder Page getting his Super J membership card. We thought it was a pretty special accomplishment.

Hello there! It's been greaat. Elder Page is pretty rad. He was in a band back home and loves music. He likes to write songs and stuff but doesn't know any music theory... well he knows some, but I've been teaching him a lot to help him with his song writing, and he's like in love with music theory now, so it's been fun. (: We both listen to a lot of the same stuff, too. Like 21 Piolts and Panic! at the Disco (: Really chill guy.

My investigators are amazing. However, due to the elections being today... we haven't been able to see any of them. These people take elections very seriously and have been throwing political parties for weeks now. I think it's just an excuse to drink and party. It hasn't helped missionary work at all.

My former companion in St. Vincent, Elder T is good. He hates being AP, but he told me to tell you guys Hello (: Elder Merrell is in his last transfer which is weird because when I first met him he was just over a year out... But he's loving life and ready to go home.

I'm doing well. No big p-day plans today... just play piano at the church with Elder Page. We're going to write a song this transfer. aha.

Love you,
Elder Chase

I PROMISE I DO MISSIONARY WORK, I JUST TAKE A LOT OF PICTURES ON MONDAY WHEN WE DO FUN STUFF!

That would be me... deep in thought.

We've got these two families we are teaching that are awesommme. One is Sirdy's family and the other is Birtillia's family. They both live kind of far from church, though, so pray that they might be able to make it! They're all actually reading and understanding the Book of Mormon, though, and they love it! They were saying things in the next lesson like, "That reminds me of the way Laman and Lemuel were acting when..." or "Nephi is a perfect example of that because he followed the spirit to get the plates and he had no idea what was going to happen." It's pretty amazing, but it is rare that an investigator actually reads and even rarer that they understand it. Now we just have to get them to pray about it, and they will be baptized really soon (: Of course they still have a lot to learn, but when the whole missionary lesson process starts with a good testimony of the Book of Mormon, everything just goes so much better. I'll let you know how they are.

Elder Mikesellllll (:

Elder Nixon and I on a cool hike.

We all know who I took this picture for. #loveyoubrandon
