Mission Pictures - 12/01/09

so i just went and bought a cord from best buy for $20 so i can send you guys my pictures. the first one should be my first baptisim bryan, he was a trouble maker from vegas. took him about 3-4 weeks before he was ready to be baptised. had to get him married first to his wife, and to get him to stop smoking. the second picture was our surprise baptism, sorta made us mad. the ward had been preparing Cole a nine yearold for baptism and didnt know that the missionaries needed to be involved. we got involved the week before his baptism and taught him once, we taught him enough to pass the interview, the interview is supposed to be done by our district leader or zone leader but bishop asked if he could do it. thats not right because the bishop doesnt have the keys our the athority to missionary work. and he cant reccieve revelation for him because he's not a member. but the bishop went ahead and did it anyway. our misson president said that we just need to learn to pick our battles. the one thing that really made me mad is that the bishop said that the stake presidency was on board with him doing the interview, but we went and talked to the stake presidency and found out they weren't. hahaha whatever counts as a baptism for us :). but im doing well its starting to stay in the teens here during the day. and we didnt play in the USU stadium the guy called and said because of liability we couldnt so we just played at lundstrum park. it was supposed to be flag football but turned into tackle football. i didnt get hurt my companion is broken....... he messed up his wrist. its just sprained. but were both doing good. bought some ties today out of the back of some guys car today pretty sweet. as you see in my pictures i dont wear any of the ties i came out with. because my companion has opened my eyes to matching cuff links and hankies. THAT'S RIGHT IM ROCKING THE HANKEE'S.
Love,
Elder Tyler Herring
