Dundalk, Part 11

"Mmmm, half a shekel for honey with bugs." - Silus, the honey merchant (title of the email. :-D)

Well, we have yet to see how the baptisms will go. They both still need to have their interviews (Jude will have his today) but we've been a little concerned for both of them. I might baptize Jude, but a member will baptize Alicia (her good friend's Dad). Keep praying for them to make it! They're so close! 

I think we will be watching the morning sessions of Conference live, and the other ones later. In fact, me and Elder Scholz will be doing a lot of travelling and switching around on Saturday and Sunday, so I'm not sure if we'll catch any of it live. I don't know who my next companion is or even if I'll be staying in Dundalk (though I probably will be). 

I think this p-day we'll be going back to Castle Roche with a few other missionaries. 

Oh the temple! My family, how I wish I could go to the temple. It was so nice to have it there right by the MTC, but there is no temple in Scotland or Ireland. I miss it. 

I've been able to print some of the pictures you've sent me. It seems like I ask for pictures or something in all my emails, but could I have another? I just wanted to show this guy in my ward the picture of me and that deer I hunted. He's a hunter. 

We've had little to no success lately with street contacting, so we're doing a lot more door-to-door chapping lately. It's kinda fun--it's like what I always imagined missionarying to be like. Still no immediate success though. 

I think y'all's prayers are working, for me at least. Because I haven't run away with my tail between my legs. I feel like I haven't really done anything right before: I skipped half of highschool and barely graduated (I didn't deserve to graduate), I quit football before I even played a game, I didn't finish seminary, I never magnified any of the callings I had...fear creeps in occasionally that I will likewise fail at my mission. It helps to know where I come from, and who I am. A link in a long line of beloved, faithful Lybbert men. Not to mention the son of a supreme heavenly being. 

Love y'all! Talk to yous later!
