Hiking Mt Pleasant

HEEY everyone! Hope things are going grreat! I am having a blast in my new area serving with Elder Esplin. He is pretty cool and a really good missionary and hes only been out one transfer, so I am his second companion. I am serving in Mt. Pleasant/Downtown Charleston! It is awesome here! Not a single hill. We are working hard and trying to get to know the area and find people. We are working with an awesome family, the Peterson family. Their oldest daughter was baptized in October, now we are just trying to get the rest of the family on board. The weather here is pretty cold. I've been using ear muffs and a scarf and two layers of gloves. We walk a lot, it beats the cold and we are doing alright finding people so far. I know a lot is going on back home, all I can think of is the words to "Count your blessings.." and also "Faith is powerful..", That's a song I just made up, but you can bet its probably really good, cause hey! it's true! Well one highlight so far is that I got a letter from Matubal! Probably the most heart lifting letter ever! That and I never hear from that guy.. Congrats on the baby! (you can remove that if its a secret).. Welp! I'm gunna get going so Elder Esplin can write his family.. This library here is kinda gross and stinky, just so you know.. Love ya!


Well.. It sounds like something great is going to happen! In missionary work every new found family, new investigator and baptism is preceded by weeks, days or even months of no success and really hard times.. Every trail ends with an amazing blessing! So just look-up while the world looks down and everything will turn out awesome!
