New Companion

So this week has been a really good week. The weather has been about 65 degrees everyday and we have been able to teach a lot of people. We are teaching a 96 year old WW2 veteran even. We have 3 people with a baptismal date for december 26, courtney and her 8 year old daughter Zeena, and Daniel. Also, yesterday was really cool because we had 5 investigators at church. The 3 with baptismal dates, plus jim who comes every week, and the really suprising one was Donques. It really was amazing that he came, so hopefully he comes back. So yes,wednesday i got my new companion. His name is Elder Ty Koppenhafer ( I get all the harder longer names haha) he is from Mancus, Colorado, which is over kinda by Blanding and Durango. He is a hard worker, his family also has cows and he likes sports too. We are even more similiar than elder Schmidtke and I, we both go about things in about the same ways. He is a good guy, his dad isnt a member and he has 2 siblings. So the first week has gone great, he has only been out 6 months and served that whole time in a area called Medina. Yes, he is the district leader. We also got a new rule yesterday that we can only use computers that are church computers, except to call home. I could be emailing at any time of the day now. So on Christmas I will either facetime or skype ( I guess try to get it set up) about 11 a.m. here so 9 in the morning for you. We are going to go to the Phillips to do that. I also will not be able to talk to you until Christmas, since that is our next preparation day. I will for sure go and check the mail on thursday and im sure I will be informed about the packages as soon as they get there haha. But I am doing great, I has been really busy, especially since I am pretty much telling us what to do for the first little while because Elder Koppenhafer doesnt know anything about the area. Thanks for all the updates and all the support. I forgot to mention I also got  aunt Jeny's postcard last week. I  got letters from aunt shirley, the stake presidency, the seminary, and Kelly Hunt this week, so you could tell them thanks so much.  I am still getting feed well, Sister Myers doesnt mess around as I have told you about getting us meals. I am starting to get into the grove of things I guess you could say, but still adjusting a little bit. It is going to start cooling down a little bit thought, so maybe winter will be here by the time I talk to you next week. But I'm doing good. It sounds like you guys are doing good and I hope that it keeps up. Have a wonderful week.
Love Elder Koden Hunt
