Letters to home

Hey mom,
So this transfer I'm gonna try to start some new things.
#1 I'm gonna try to write in my Journal regularly.
#2 I'm gonna try to write more letters to home and people who I want to write.
#3 Start a photo album
#4 Read the scriptures more effectively and start to mark them up.
Well so things are pretty good. Missionary work is going pretty good. The Stake President in this area is really starting to encourage the bishops to encourage the ward and is having them be accountable to come up with some names for us. Our most positive investigators name is Flora.She is a little Nicaraguan lady. She is severely itt. She has loopus and other diseases that has triggered but she is interviewed and ready to be baptized.
Well on thing I want to ask you is for some help. I'm gonna start putting together an album . Will you try to accumulate some pictures of family, friends, spaz, interesting stuff, ward, Christmas, house and send them to me or have people. I'm gonna start asking others as well.
Well I drew the pictures last year before Christmas and didn't want to stand in line to send them.I drew the temple one for you and Dad. The other three you get to pick who gets them out of the kids. Well Read 3Nephi 9:15-18 and know that Christ loves us.
Much love from me and Him

Hey,

What's up? How are things? How is school? Hopefully you are all still going and working hard. How has it been going to church? I bet it's weird not having Sundays to goof around.

Well the mission is going good. I just hit 6 months in the mission. It's pretty weird to think I have been away from the wonderful town of Magna for so long.

So right now I am serving in the Lakeland ward which is in the centerish of Florida. I am serving with my MTC companion Elder Reimschussel. We have some cool people we are working with. Our main person is Flora. Se is a Nicaraguan lady. She is ready to be baptised but she is very sick. I'm pretty sure after she gets dunked, so will her husband.
Well, I drew the picture for Christmas/fun but I tried to ship them and didn't want to waste time sitting in line so, take care of them. Get a dollar and go buy a frame.
Much love,
Elder Watson





Dad,

Ok so go grab your bible go to 2 Samuel 12:7, read the first sentence, replace Nathan with Elder Watson and David with His Dad. Pops, Thou art the man. Well I thought that was funny/fun. Well I'm enjoying myself working out here in Lakeland Florida, with Elder Reimschussel. We are living in an awesome apartment. It is actually a home. We have a nice lake view with tons of wildlife which is very common in Florida. For example, two seconds ago my companion opened up our sliding glass door and out popped a 1 inch long roach. The ward here is good. They have a weight gain calendar for Elder Watson. They send around in Relief Society Ha Ha.

Well I drew the Temple in about September not knowing your interest in the church then I found out and decided that I would send it to you and mom for a reminder of whats next but it kept getting put off until now. Hope you enjoy.

Well have to end on a serious note. In D&C 121: Joseph Smith is asking why so many trials are put upon him. This is while he is liberty jail. The Lord responds in section 122 in the end of verse 7 it says, "All experiences will be for your good". I know that the Lord will always be there to love us and Christ is always there to extend his arm for support.

Much love from the Florida end of the country.
