:: Big Changes For The WA-TAC Mission ::

Mom thank you for the encouragement again :)  You have a great Testimony and should keep it growing. The harder road always gives the steepest change and almost always goes to the highest summit or best change. I do believe that being an example does change things. One member told me that more than likely after eight positive contacts with anyone they are likely to want to hear from the Missionaries. That is completely true, everyone has the possibility of being happy even in their hardest time of their life.  I'm going to be staying where I am in Brookdale.  Shylique is still progressing but his parents won't let us talk to him in the house and he can't go to Christ's Church on Sunday. On July 18th he plans on going into the Army and then he will go to our Church because he will be living out of their home at that time. Ben is still improving and reads everything we tell him. He is going to get on date and Baptized soon. We committed one of our recent converts to stop smoking for 10 days like in Daniel 1: 5-12.  We promised her that she will be feeling dramatically better after those ten days because she is really sick. We have been bicycling a lot lately and that has been a lot of hard work. Friday's Zone Leaders Council was a big day for our mission.  President Weaver told us that there is going to be a change within the WA-TAC mission, Seattle and Everett missions.  The new Washington Federal Way mission will be comprised of six Seattle stakes, and two of our stakes.  The Seattle mission will consist of the remaining four stakes in Seattle along with the addition of four stakes from the Everett mission.  Some of the missionaries serving in our mission will be reassigned to the new Federal Way mission.  I hope that I won't have to go I love the WA-TAC mission.  But  the Savior answers "I Will" to all that is asked of him and as these changes happen, I WILL do all that he asks of me.  Next week our Mission will have 30 missionaries entering into our mission. Five are returning home.  Be happy!!  Mathew 11:28-30
