Still sick

He found a dog!

I think this must be his zone
Finally wearing a jacket!
 Elder Trezise's email:

I'm doing better. My throat hurts a little, but it's a lot better. I have congestion pills that help a lot too. So I'll be fine. And Elder Nelson and Sister Carvajal are making me wear a jacket. Sister Carvajal said she'd call you if I don't wear it. And yes, I remember about the PE class, I've prayed multiple times that he'll be able to get into it. That's crazy that Max can start driving soon! It feels like just the other day that I was taking the driving course thing. That's weird. 

Also, I'm glad that that dog is moving away, because if anything hurt Ollie I'd freak out. That dog is the source of my happiness.
I really hope that Max gets ordained. That's upsetting that you're not sure if he will. I know that you're trying everything you can to get the kids to see the importance of the Gospel. I'm sorry it's hard. I know what it's like. We're teaching a family who has committed to go to church the last 3 weeks in a row. They haven't showed up. I'm annoyed. I wish they could see the importance of the Gospel. I wish they could see how much it would help them. I sent an email to Max that might help. Hopefully. But I don't know.
I know that Jesus Christ is our Savior. This is something that I haven't always known. I wish I had known it earlier. It has helped so much in my life as I've been able to rely on Him. No matter how hard, or how bad it gets, He is there for me. He is there for all of us. I am so grateful my Savior and my Redeemer. I am so grateful to know that no matter how bad it gets, He will help us. He will be there for us. Sometimes though, we just need to swallow our pride, suck it up, and realize that there's One who's had it much worse than any of us. 

Transfers are January 31st. Elder Nelson thinks that I'm going to stay and become a trainer. That's a lot of responsibility and I kind of don't want to. But he insists that I'll be in leadership the rest of my mission. It has been snowing a good amount, and I love it. I hate the slush and mud, but when it's in that just snow stage it's awesome! Elder Vaivela gave me a big fur jacket that makes me look russian, but it's comfy so I wear it a lot now. I CAN'T WAIT TO GO TO THE TEMPLE. I'M SO EXCITED. But the Idaho Falls temple is closed for 2 weeks. I got to help clean it, which was awesome. It's cool to feel the Spirit in the Celestial and sealing rooms even when there's nothing in there. We are all excited to go though. Apparently there are changes in the initiatory, endowments, and sealing. If you have a testimony of Russel M. Nelson, then the changes won't affect your testimony. Anyway, I love you all very much, and pray for you daily!
-Elder Trezise

It was a crazy day for Elder Trezise and he didn't call until after 5.  I think being AP takes up a lot of his time.  Here is his letter for this week: Sorry this is so late. It's been a day. Haha. But this week has been a good one. It's been crazy! We had exchanges on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. So yeah. Thursday was with Elder Smith, so that one was AWESOME! But the rest were exchanges with struggling missionaries. So that was more tough. But I had a lot of fun. We also drove up and down and up and down all week across the mission, and it was WILD. So much driving. It has been so, so cool to see the mission field and interact with so many missionaries though. I feel so blessed. Today I wanted to send an email with some lyrics to a song that I have and love. "It's not about having everyone in the world to yourself It's about knowing that someplace you're loved by someone else  It's about singing and hearing more than your ow...

Here is Elder Trezise's letter: Hello family! This week was pretty normal. We had a good amount of lessons, and got soooooooooooo close to finding a new person to teach. We'll get him. His names Ricardo. He's a good kid. Loves the Bible. Other than that, not too much happening this week.    I'm grateful for the opportunity I had to participate in the family's weekly studies this week, even if I didn't get to be a part of the discussion at the end. I hope you all enjoyed the talks. "Be 100% Responsible" is one of my favorites of all time! It's so good! And it really teaches us how much control we have over our lives. Other people's choices don't change the outcome of our lives, just the course. Same destination. What decisions we make despite others agency is where our true character lies. Being 100% responsible is what allows us to have full control of our lives. Because if we are responsible, then no matter what others ...

That's awesome that Michael is still doing the Organ Stop tradition! I always loved that! The Carvajals son moved in for Christmas, and he's fun, and has the new super smash and says it's super fun. I miss my puppy. I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU PUT A SWEATER ON MY DOG! I heard the party was a lot of fun, and dad got stuck with the poster. I heard about what Kim and Brian did, and that made me so happy. That...
