Thanksgiving was like any other day, working super hard.

Hey Everybody

I'm so glad to ear that your guys all had a thanksgiving. We did
absolutely nothing it was just like any other day, which means
running around with our heads cut offl No but we've been
working like super hard this week. We have dun dun dun
dun ...... 6 baptismal dates for the month of Decemberl we are
pushing it as hard as we possibly can. Our zone last month only
had four baptisms. And so its been really stressful these past
few weeks. Our mission has a goal of 2000 baptisms this year
ans apparently this month of November didn't go over very well
so we have to run like crazy to get us back to where we need to
be for December.
The thing that really helps we out though is the fact that if we
do the very best that i possibly can heavenly father will provide
a way so that we can complete our goals the faith is so
important here in the mission. If you don't believe that you will
have success you never will. I feel that that is a little bit of the
problem here in the mission right now and i know that it was in
the past for me. I just wish that we could keep this faith all of
the time. we are teaching two really young families right now
that aren't married but are both super positive. We are going to
have a wedding this Saturday and then the baptism this
Sunday. The girl that's going to get baptized she is such a
golden investigator whose name is Ada and she is the girlfriend
of a member but e gave us her reference and she just took off
from there. So they are going to get married this weekend so
we've got to run like crazy to get all of the paperwork ready
before Saturday. So basically from her on out until Christmas
we are going to be working non stop as hard as we can to help
these people.
But Mom I've got bad news if you have looked over the
paperwork that is necessary to fill out, there is no way that i am
going to have the time or access to the documents that i am
going to need. So if you could o all that you possibly can for me
on this that would be great
As for thanksgiving we did absolutely nothing. It was just
another normal day. But the good thing was that i completely
forgot about it until Sunday rolled around when a member
family invited us over for lunch and then we went over to the
bishop's house for dinner. So it was only until yesterday that it
really hit me. But the really cool thing that is happening is that i
really am losing myself. I can feel it everyday, every night. I just
come back exhausted but yet at the same time its a really good
feeling. I just hope that i can keep it up.
Love you guys keep up the great work. Put those missionaries
to work! get them running you guys need to be that on little
piece of gravel in their shoes that is always on their tail!
Love
Elder Bever
