Oh, hello there! It's nice to see you again. Welcome to "Reading
an email from Zac." The part of your day when you get into your
computer/mobile device and treat yourself to reading an email from Zac
that he sent home, therefor, making your day just THAT much better.
(There won't be singing in this one...)
Well, it has officially begun! Elder Lueckler has now joined
forces with Elder Stowell and me in fighting the battle of good vs.
evil. The Three Amigops have begun the era of the Triangle of Destiny
(even if Elder Lueckler may be in a training stage). ;) I thought I
just might point out that Elder Stowell has been faithfully serving
the people of Malaysia (Singaporites) for a full year now, so congrats
to him for his diligence and for his victories! We are all proud of
you!
Meanwhile, over here in the USA, the fight has been perilous.
storms that have rained upon their heads trying to slow them down.
There have been many wounded, some almost fatally. Our heroes walk
down deserted streets, knocking on ghost town doors, left only to have
faith and pray for better. It's two, against all the fiery darts the
adversary can hurl at them. Their only fear: a family that will not be
together for eternity.
Ok. Now in all seriousness, this week has been pretty good. I
have had better weeks, bit I am not going to complain. :) We had a
lesson with Evelyn (eternigator from Sierra Leone) this week. She
doesn't quite understand the reverence part of church. She came from a
baptist church where 'praise The Lord!!' and 'Amen!!' and standing
and clapping your hands when you feel the spirit, are acceptable. We
had some fun trying to tell her why she shouldn't do that at sacrament
meeting.
We went to funeral for Laura Thompson. I loved how
peaceful it felt in our church building during the whole service.
There was an overall feeling of 'everything is going to be all right'.
Everyone noticed that and some even asked why the felt that way in our
church and not in theirs. Well, my dear friends, that would be the
spirit testifying to these amazing family and friends of Laura that
they will see her again.
We had a half mission conference. It was about being a
consecrated missionary and devoting all your energy and talents to The
Lord.we talked about Captain Moroni and his title of liberty.
President Riggs got us so pumped and ready to dedicate all to The Lord
that every single missionary rent their shirt and wrote upon it as a
covenant to The Lord that we will be faithful and diligent! Of course,
we were told to bring a shirt that we wouldn't mind ruining and didn't
just rip off the nice shirts we were wearing.
We took the Metro into D.C. To watch the Nationals
baseball game! It was way cool! The place was packed and there were
about 500 missionaries there (D.C. North came too). Of course the
Nat's won, it was Mormon night and we were all praying that we would
win. The Phillies didn't even have a chance. Final score: 11-0.
That's about it for now! If you have any questions be sure to
submit them to me, via email or letter! Love you guys!

P.s. Only one missionary was harmed in the making of this letter.
P.p.s. I stubbed my toe.....
