For the family. October 11, 2011

MAn this will be the fastest email ive ever written. This week was
great. Saturday about 1000 mormons mobbed on this old fokes home and
we painted in the pouring rain and gave them like a mountain of
clothes and food and it was really great. WE have an investigator
waiting for us at his front door before church sunday, and he drove us
there, was planning to go to the first hour but stayed for all three,
that was awsome. today im on an exchange (YES) and its going well. im
finding alot of ways i can improve and be a better missionary. in case
anyone is wondering, i give top marks to Elder Packers talk, and i
hope everyone, especially the teenagers, reads it and highlights it as
soon as it comes into print. but so many were great. the one by that
one 70 that i dont remember his name, about the book of mormon, was
just the tops, and its changed the way i teach with the book of
mormon, for the better. The weather hasnt been too hot, rainy and
cloudy, at least in the mornings, and for that im very thankful. i
just dont function well when its dang hot, and this summer is going to
be very hard in that respect.
         Im glad to hear that mom is taking care of my friends, and i
would love seans adress if she can get ahold of it. im in the middle
of a letter to isaiah.
       I miss all you guys a ton, and im heading into a big week of
work, wish me luck! youre all in my prayers.
                        Love, elder Bridge
 p.s. i do get mail here, if anyone wants to send me a paper letter
and be my best friend when i get home. just sayin.
