Week 19

Well Hey there family!  Things are going good, we've met a lot of people that we're going to start teaching here pretty soon in the last week so that's cool!

I was sick the past couple of days, which is no bueno cause when i get sick, like i do EVERY single November, it usually lasts till late February.  I'm in for a long haul of sickness.

Thanksgiving was good, we had two thanksgiving dinners the past week, one on wednesday and the other on thursday.    Oh and whilst on the subject of holidays and such,  I will probably be skypeing home this year!  I've already asked Dad to get a webcam so now all we need is the People to be on the other side!  That's right i'm calling y'all to repentance before you commit the sin of not being present while we skype!

Anyhow, yesterday i heard some odd news from our ward mission leader as well as our bishop that someone in our ward has been backstabbing us in lewisburg and giving us a bad name! What?!? they said that we skipped out on two appointments with a neighbor who were teaching and don't return her calls...  Which don't worry, we haven't done anything of the sort...  We even called the investigator and talked to her to see if that's what she thought, it wasn't.  I don't know what someone has against us but its ridiculous and i intend to get to the bottom of it!

Cameron mentioned how his mission is getting 50 new sisters in the mission soon... Well let me top that, but first a bit of info

Mission's will cap out at 250 missionaries, ours has about 152 right now, by june of next year we'll have 250, all the new missionaries will be sisters...  That's 98 new sister missionaries!  They are going to keep the Elders at the same amount throughout it all, but still we'll have more sisters then elders soon! Weird

Anyways there's been some crazy stuff that's been happening in the mission which i'm not at liberty to tell y'all till next week,  but i would ask that you guys pray for our mission president and his wife.

That is all
Love
-Elder Martin
