Dad-things are going good here
in Atlanta. we had a pretty good we accidently walked through a park
where they were having Gay pride activities.... I will not say anymore about
that event..... we are having some e good things happen people are seeing
us more often and are becoming more interested and wiling to learn more. so we
are happy about that. we just can't get anyone to church.... :/ its
different working with people my own age... and sometimes I feel like I'm back
at school myself and I'm late for class or practice and my stomach sinks...
but its good though we see a lot of football guys but none of them are
too interested in talking to us so that's kind of a bummer... oh did y'all
send a package to Georgia state or Georgia tech?? just wondering.
ill keep praying for work to come through for you. I am starting to
feel like the Fremont game ... every day I'm exhausted when I go to bed... so I
guess that's good. thanks for the prayers if I can do anything for
y'all let me know. I love you love elder weaver
Mom-so I don't
have too much time, since its Columbus day the library is closed and we are at
the family history center but my computer wasn't working so I just got
on.... things are good I can't wait to go to the Ogden temple, no worries I'm
not trunky ;) glad to know things are going good in the ward as well at
least with the high priests. :) ya I heard about jaxs game sounds
crazy!!! :) so how do we find out how much it costs to send the bike home?...
dinner sounds fun with grandma and grandpa. it's crazy how fast time
flies when your super busy..I can't believe how fast this past week went. so
what all needs to happen for me to be ready for school and football when I get
home? as far as classes, and football. we are working with good things right
now and we are hoping the best comes of it all. thank you for your prayers, I'll
be praying for y'all as well. I love you mom and hope you have a good week love

football with the other elders, the zone leaders are at the aquarium now so
they aren't with us today... kind of a bummer... how's Justin doin?
I can't think of anything in Halloween box... sorry
I feel
best saying Weber state... I'll be praying for Justin I hope what I told
him helps too.
Hey Jace! How was your week? Did
you learn anything new? Next Sunday on the 19th is my farewell! Can you believe
it? I have to talk about faith, do you have any suggestions I could talk
about or any advice? I feel like I need all the help I can get! Do you wish you
had more time being on your mission? I had one really strong spiritual
experience a while ago in sacrament meeting and since then I don't feel like I
have felt this. Lately, any advice? I feel like Satan is really hitting me hard
right now.. I feel lost.. I feel unprepared and I don't feel like I know why
I'm going anymore.... I was going to write you a letter but I didn't think you
were going to get it in time for my farewell I don't mean to throw all this on
you... But I feel like I could trust and you could give me the best answer.. Hope
all is well with you and that you finish out your mission the way
you want to! I miss you like crazy. You have no idea..
Love Justin
On a happier
note I clean the mustang and fixed the broken phone so when you get back you
will basically have a new phone and the stang is still in good shape! Roy plays
Bonneville this week on Wednesday!
so as far as help with your talk, now would be a good time to
use preach my gospel. in chapter six there is a section on faith alone and
there scripture along with it. they can help pretty good and also using the
bible dictionary, at least it helps for me when I'm studying.
I kinda do wish I had more time on the mission, but I also
know that sooner or later my time will come to be home and I might as well be
happy about it! :) besides its all in the plan that god has for us. if
you think about it nothing really changes from a mission to regular life again.
you still study the scriptures, we are still encouraged to do missionary
work with our friends and family. the only small difference is you don't
wear the name tag on the outside, but its engraven in your heart, and you don't
dress up every day. as far as having spiritual experiences, are you reading and
praying like you should be? what exactly are you looking for it to be an experience?
the best advice I can give you is to read your patriarchal blessing. it's
from Heavenly Father and it's for you. Satan will always make you feel like you
don't need to go or aren't worthy to go, and he can even help you forget why
you wanted to go in the first place. weigh the pros and cons about
serving and not serving.. the pros for serving will 100% of the time out weigh
the cons and also the pros of not serving. think of the people you would
be serving, the relationships you get to make with people in another part of
the world, still our brothers and sisters. Justin your leaving your
family for 2 years so that others can be with theirs for eternity. I
will be praying for you and id invite you to pray as well for the strength and
desire and understanding of serving a mission. I love you dearly and
would never lie to you about why you should or should not serve a mission. but
until you serve yours you will understand the blessings and the significant
role the gospel plays in our lives, you will but it'll take longer.
as of right now I don't have anything else to say about that
because I don't feel the need to and the spirit is telling me to let take this
and what you will with it. I love you and I miss you as well my friend.
but when you get home think of all the time we will have together to share
stories of the missions we served and also the life we are starting to live
after the mission.
don't give up on your dreams. I love you love elder weaver
