Dear Mom,
Life here in Texas has been pretty normal. I got to see the movie "Meet The Mormons!" It is such a good movie and I really suggest that you guys watch it! It is about 6 different people who are LDS, 1. A bishop in Atlanta, Georgia. 2. The owners of the largest martial arts gym in Costa Rica. 3. The coach for the Navy football team. 4. The Candy Bomber. 5. A humanitarian in Kathmandu, Nepal. and finally 6. A missionary mom! Very good story and one thing. Please send me a CD with these approved songs on it.
1. Glorious or Symphany (not sure what it is called) By David Archuleta
2. The fall by two steps from hell
3. Ezios Family by Assassins Creed 2
4. Assassins creed 3 theme song by Assassins Creed 3
5. Mortal Gladiator by I am not sure
6. If you could hie to kolob (this really fancy piano cover)
7. Protectors of the Earth by two steps from hell
8. I am Lincoln by something Zawoski
9. something appropriate from the Civil War soundtrack
10. Hey Brother by avicii
11. anything else you would like to put on it
Feel free to review them but I went over it with my companion and Zone Leaders and they think it is fine. We are also doing a lot of service projects this month for some reason. Most of our investigators are waning because commitment and Integrity just don't seem to be existent here. We started teaching the English Class and I never knew how long and hard it would be to teach the Alphabet! Our recent converts are getting stronger on the other hand so that is great!
I also walked away with more respect for Muslims than I ever thought I did. So many misconceptions about so many good people are ruining the world! I also got to eat Helal (blessed meat) at his house and it actually is pretty good. So I guess I can add that to my list of weird but delicious foods! We also got anti-ed by a Catholic and were given a prayer pamphlet which I looked at and noticed one thing. They took the 2nd commandment out and replaced it with thou shalt not covet your neighbors car!!!!!!!!!!!! That is the most Blasphemous thing I have ever seen in my life and trust me! I would never join Catholicism no matter what!
We are teaching a lot of receptive people though, like this couple named James and Rosie who want to best for their children and they loved the Restoration. Getting them to church is a challenge though! Reggie's friend didn't believe us when we said that baptism has to be in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost because the trinity is a huge thing down here in the bible belt. It is starting to get colder up here and we have been hailed on multiple times! General Conference was Awesome! My favorite talks were by Jeffrey R. Holland, Dieter F. Uchtdorf, and D. Todd Christopherson and Thomas S. Monson. I also love the Lemon Juice story that Dieter F. Uchtdorf told. I also appreciate the Native Language thing because now we got to hear from people from Hong Kong, Uruguay, Puerto Rico, Brazil, and Sweden! We are really improving on becoming unified in this world!
Anyways, I also need Lily Naumu and Brigham Mckay's Email addresses because I promised them I would write or E-mail them.
Love you guys and wish the best of luck!
Elder Farley
