Aldste Isaac Grindstaff, October 26 2009

> Peanut butter wow that sounds fun. I filled the boxes last year. Mom it is lots of fun to ride in a wheel chair you should try it, or you could be a mature example, and that works too. Yes it is cold here and what with daylight savings time it is now 5:00 and dark outside. (however so far today it hasn't been too cold, but I bought a scarf anyway.)
> This week has been really fun. The family home evening was lots of fun, even if it was in three languages swedish, english, and spanish. Elba is a really cool person. Then on Wednsday we made a mistake. We double booked our teach, so we had to teach at 18:00 (6:00) at the church and at the university. Very hard to do. So, we called around and got it all set up so we could go on splits with the members. I went to the University and taught Rikard, and it went really well. he has lots of good questions, mostly he struggles with faith, but he remembers the lessons we have taught (even the Plan of Salvation which we taught two months ago). Älste Cleere had an awesome experience to. He taught a spanish girl from El Salvador (I think) while Anne-len translated for him. He said it was awesome because they really liked eachother and she said she has always wondered which church was the true church. Then Thursday we taught Rikard again and showed him the Church web site and he wants to listen to President Monson's talks. On the way home I started talking to two college students (they were speaking english, so I had to) They were really positive, and we missed our stop and the bus didn't go back. So, we walked home. The people in Älghult are also doing really well. Nadia and her family will find out if they can stay this week.
> Sunday we got to go to stake conference at the scandic star hotel. the seats are probably the most comfortable I will ever have for stake conference. (they were theater seats, very nice) The talks were all good and a couple were on seminary and the blessings of it. Keep going to seminary. Also put on the Armor of God and keep going. The Temple president gave a really powerfull talk on temple work. Isn't it wonderful to be able to go to the house of the Lord? Then the Stake president closed by telling us we need to give of our hearts to others and serve others. It was really awesome.
> Time is running out, so Ha det så Bra and thank you for the letters and everything you do for me
