Family,

 

On tusday my companion and i where riding our bikes to go and find a family that was in our futchers. Well we saw a collom of smoke go up...This is so not fair that i never got to do this before my mission...yup it was a forest fire it had just started and no one was around. It was infact burning twards a group of homes. At that point my companinon whent to go help why i started hicking out some flames in some dry lawn grass. It took the fire department 15min to respond we where out in the country. So someone brought us shoves and to defend the homes we started cutting a fire line. My companinon working on a farm most of his life was had fire experiance with buring ditches. So we went to work. By the time the fire department got there we had cut a 3 ft line over 50yrds through pine brush cuting of the fire from the closest homes. The fire department had no better timing when they came because the fire was starting to crown into some pine trees. The batalion chef a member was quite suprised and thankfull to see us when he got there. He said out efforts likely saved some of those homes and made containment much faster. Unlike Utah right now the south is in a drought. With so much vegitation down here it dose not take long for things to dry out.

 

Other fire's buring...

 

We had another baptisum this last week Renee Gade was baptised on friday and confermed on Sunday. When she was confermend she wispered to us as we whent to sit back down "I felt it! I felt it! Wow my hands are shaking!" she loved it. She has already invited her coworkers to church.

 

We should have another baptisum this month. Our mission is at 74 of its goal of 100 for its last month with 50ish companionships. The lord is blessing us so much. Thanks for your prayers.

 

Dad Happy Fathers day! I hope it was great! I am going to send pictures of the fire! We whent back later after we showerd to see that family and took some.

 

Jeremiah- where did you get your hand? I am sorry. I got a blister from the fire... lets admit it a cut is worse.

 

love you all lots.
