Hello :) I hope Scott's work gets going again soon. I'll keep them in my prayers, for sure.

Ladderball looks like a blast. I haven't played it, but I've seen people play it. I can't believe that you beat Manda & Scott though haha.

Things are..... okay. I mean, we're working hard and teaching and everything. But the Sapulpa Ward Leadership is not helping us at all and it is very frustrating. Also, it is VERY hot and humid! holy cow! I hope none of you every complain about Utah being hot. lol. I HATE humidity! It's the pits. The good news is, my allergies aren't bad at all and I haven't had a bloody nose yet :) *knocks on wood*

We have our first Zone Conference with President Merkley on Friday. I'm excited! He sounds way awesome! Apparently I was mis-informed about the 90 day thing. He's already changing things. The rule for investigators being baptized used to be that they had to attend church 5 times in our mission. But he has changed the rule to simply say that it is up to the Bishop to decide when they are ready. Be that after 2 times or 12. I like it because it forces the Bishop to take a vested interest in our investigators. I'm hoping that it will evolve into Bishops assigning member families to keep track of the individual investigators. That would be fantastic.

Dillon should not be buying a car, he should be saving for a mission! Grr!

I have to talk in church this Sunday. While I hate doing that(as you are well aware), I do look forward to having the chance to guilt-trip the members in Sapulpa into doing missionary work ;) haha

Not much else is new here on my end. Just gonna keep working hard. :) Thanks for keeping me up to date on what's going on back home! :)

Love,Elder Bracken
