Wednesday, August 5, 2009

Good morning Dad!!!:) I was on the computer and saw that I didn'tget a letter from you and I was sad:( but then a few minutes latter a new email came into my box and it was from you:( yay happy day. Ok I'll send you some pictures next week I'm thinking of seeing if I can upload them to costco and have you pick them up on a DVD. I have so many of them. but we'll see. if anything I'll send you some by email. So it sounds like everything is going just great over on your side of the world. Things here are going great. Miracles are happening everyday some days they are harder to see but others are as plain to see as men a crowd of thai people. :) oh I"m funny. It seems like God has his miracles happening over where you are as well. I'm happy about your job:). Here I knew he would pull through. He hasn't let us down yet. and don't think he will anytime soon. Our most recent convert is amazing. She is from korat so she knows the place backword and forward and upside down. so we had her come help us find a hose from LA. She was great. and as we where riding around she said in a year she wants to be a missionary. :) YAY!!!!!!!!!!!! she will do great. She didn't give up trying to find this peorson she asked 3 time for a phone number. I would have give up at the 1st try. We found the house but the member didn't live there anymore. It was great. then we have 2 more lined up for baptism. One is in Chang Mai on business so the sisters up there are teaching her for us. :) then the other one is all done she just needs a interview to clear up some "things" but those two are friends so they are going to get baptized on the same say. The sad thing is I will most likely in a new area by that time :( but some people sow and others reap. For them I am a sower. I'll reap somewhere else. Oh i just heard something great from Pres. Smith who is from AZ. they lives somewhere close to Amanda and Nick. but he said that the Mesa mission baptised about 1000 people last year. Wow I never knew there was that many baptism. The work here is great, although we are being cut down on missionaries. by Jan we should hve about 110 missionaries instead of our current 140. :( We are trying to build up the places we have already. Everything here is great. I can't believe its been 6 months since I have left, but who is counting. This next year is going by so fast . Too fast in fact.

Well I need to write some others I love you

SISTER MEYERS.

This is her first companion, A native thai. Unfortunately She wanted to speak only english with Bonnie to perfect her skills and she was very trunky. This was her last area and very sad to say had checked out of the mission life, plus didn't want to be a trainer. Which is funny because mission President Dodge told Bonnie he was giving her the best sister trainer in the field. But Bonnie weathered the 6 weeks and now has a new companion Sister Bradford from Sandy, Utah and they work great together and Bonnie stepped up to being the lead in that area, since Sister Bradfield had never been there before. Bonnie and Sister Bradfield are having great success.

Sorry these are old pictures. I just figured how to get them on this site. At the Thai zoo you can feed the giraffes bananas. She went there in May with her first companion Sister ( I don't remember her name and Bonnie never wrote it in any of her e-mails due to the fact they didn't get along.
