This just in... from The Office

September 2, 2013

So... yeah. This weeks title is obvious. Moving on!
This past week has been really... fast. The Office keeps us really busy all week long. I don't really have too much time to really think about what's happening around me. I don't even know what to talk about really, but we'll see how this goes!

So far, in the Office they've been keeping me really busy. I'm in charge of the mail every day, I get to sort everything, print labels for them, and send 'em on! Also, I have been in charge of going through the missionaries phone records, lookin' for disobedience and such. That's really boring! I look through thousands of pages trying to look for discrepancies... it's really boring actually. Also, I'm in charge of the supplies that go to all the missionaries in the Mission. So the Zone Leaders will call or text me with the numbers of supply needs, and I'll package it up for when they come to the Office. It keeps things interesting.

Elder Cannon, my comp. is really cool. He's from Orange County California. And I suppose to tell you a little bit about him, he started his mission in Honduras, spent about 20 months there, and now he's here because of a parasite he picked up there, and now he needs some doctor attention here in America. Hes' real cool though, we get along really well. He plays the ukelele a lot, and makes up songs. We have a bunch of fun with it though!

Elder Egan is... he's a bit tougher to deal with. I love the guy, but his personality and mine don't really mesh well. But he's a good Elder, And I love him for sure. He's from Idaho Falls, and he LOVES Idaho. Good guy :)

But I think that about catches all of you up!
Oh! Also... no news about my knees yet. The medical information is in SLC with Missionary Medical, and they're still looking it over. I haven't heard anything yet from them, but once I do I suppose I'll know what to do concerning surgery or Physical Therapy or... whatever. I have no idea what's going on. But I'm moving on and doing my best!

Last bit of information, an investigator that we're working with, Kevin Pizarro, is on baptismal date for the 21st of this month! I'm really excited for him, and we're working hard to keep moving forward! Kevin is cool, his GF is a member, and their whole family is fellowshipping him, he's coming to church all the time, and going to the activities, this kid is SOLID! He'll be a member of the true church in no time!

Well everyone, that should do it. I sure love you all!
This church is true, I know that without a doubt, and I challenge each of you, this particular week to bear sincere testimony of the truthfulness of this church. That's your assignment this week. That's it. And if you come back with, "Oh, I was too busy." I'll call you out on it. You've got 7 days, I know that you can do it! Put your faith in God, and in His Son, Jesus Christ. And I know that you can do it. 

Love,
Elder DeFreese
