Letter 11-26-2013

Transfers are coming up tomorrow - Elder Mintey and I are staying again for a third go at things here in the Bennion East Stake! We're really excited and because of all the work we've done with members we know we'll be able to see a lot of success in the next six weeks.

Berry and Keelin are both super awesome. They caught a bad sickness over the weekend though, and weren't able to come to church on Sunday. They've both been reading the pamphlets and the Book of Mormon we gave to them though and know that everything that is taught is good. They're going to be baptized in December.

We had a mission temple trip on Thursday over to the Jordan River temple. That was awesome as always. Nice to jump out of our little area for a while (and out of the "world") to experience what goes on in the temple. Thursday also continues to be anti-mormon day... so many apostates show up on Thursdays to give us grief. The end of one was, "so what you're saying is, you've rationalized yourself out of feeling the spirit?" "yes."...................some people :|

More funny things... a little more than a week ago we helped this very drunk guy, Steve, unbend his fender after he ran it into a pole and his front tire exploded. We went by his apartment two days later, and after a while answered the door in boxers and slammed the door on us. On Thursday as we were talking with an apostate lady (who happened to be the door next to Steve), Steve randomly came out and asked us all if we wanted some chicken he had just unthawed cuz he wasn't going to be able to eat it all. The next day we saw Steve again and he gave us three referrals, including his native american girlfriend who seems pretty interested and a couple new move ins who have potential.

So yes things are still going good,

Elder Chandler
