Welcome:

As you read this blog you will walk week by week with Elder Traasdahl as he takes one step at a time to teach the restored Gospel of Jesus Christ and testify that in addition to the Bible, The Book of Mormon is a Second Witness of Christ. Enjoy the journey of this LDS missionary through his first hand experience and through the eyes of his family and his twin missionary brother.

March 24, 2014 ~ Emailing back and forth

 Mom! The computers I am on don't have an updated Internet browser so our myldsmail emails aren't supported by it. A bros in here let me borrow his lab top for a second to send this email. If you could just let Parker and aust and dad know I got their emails and read them but I can't reply that's be awesome. I'm not too sure what we're going to do we have to figure out and see if we are able to make it to another library. If I get on its be later this afternoon because we have an appt with a potential investigator at 1. Love ya so much mom! I'll talk to ya soon!

Haha sorry mom, it started to work just now! how are you?


Then I responded:  I'm super awesome!!  Super blessed!!  Super happy to have heard from you and Parker!!!  Hurray that your computer worked. :)

Great to hear! Hey can you also have Elizabeth Banks send him a treat or something. He also says he hasn't receive a letter from a girl because he doesn't know how to talk to girls so can you either give me sister banks email or tell her that what I need help with is having Haylee if she'd be willing write him a nice little note, nothing to serious more of a "hey I heard you were Elder Traasdahl's companion how are you? I'm great and here's why" that way I can coach him up and walk him through how to talk to girls. I feel so bad for this guy he really has had a difficult life and is in a deep deep dark spot for his state of mind so I want to try all different ways of lifting him out of it.


Thanks! mom I'll tell you what, I thought I was busy before! haha I'm trying to figure out this whole area and run it and the district and spend all extra time thinking about how I can get some pep in Hamilton's step. And I have found that working with Hamilton can either be the most miserable experience or it can be an experience where I have a huge opportunity to learn. My spirits are staying high because I feel confident I'm doing all that I can and the peace that comes from that is amazing. It seems to be working to some degree but there's still along ways to go.

Mamma bear I have to get going but just wanted to so bye! love ya have a great week!
