Whats up fellas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! E. Howell here in Vacaville library


So........ i get the feeling this is going to be a really boring letter.. haha nothing too many new things happened this past week. I hope thats okay for y'all. Just know that im doing great! Just doing the usual... which is missionary work if you didnt know.


The first thing i wanna talk about is the chance we had to hear from our Apostle Elder Cook! That was soooooo sweeet! We had an all mission conference in Santa Rosa. We all got to meet Elder Cook personally as we went into the chapel. It was sooo cool. He said a lot of great things that made me think about not only my missionary work but about my life. We also had him come to the Vacaville stake on sunday. That was nuts!! We had the first couple rows reserved for investigators and brenda and esmiralda showed up. The twins. The ward has been so good to welcoming them in and everything. They even went to Mutual this past week. They are sooo solid i hope they keep progressing its so sick. but anyway on sunday the stake center was PACKED! More than what ive ever seen in utah haha. we were the ushers and had to sit down hundreds of people. every single seat in that joint was filled. they had some intense security guards surrounding the service haha it was so nuts! it was a great service. Elder Cook talked a lot about the same things on sunday as he did on saturday so i got to hear like the same thing twice. It was overall just a sweet experience.



This past week we also went to the temple. We went to the Sacramento temple. I feel dumb because i have some pictures of this past week with the all mission conference and temple and what not but i forgot my camera cable.. its whatever though i guess haha. ill just have to send you some pics next week. i had a really cool experience in the temple though. i took in my patriarchal blessing (thank you for getting that to me) and i reread it and i received some revelation for my life. It was soooo cool! its amazing the spirit that you feel inside the temple.. its so special. my goal is to have all of us go together when i get home. that would be sickkkk! hit up tons of temples around our crib. that would be a good time.




We are still teaching the same investigators.. we didnt pick up anybody new. This past week was pretty slow due to the activities and everything going on. The only new thing is that Crystal found out how important prayer can be while she tries to quit smoking so we will see how that goes. she really needs the gospel so we hope she can stop...


There is actually an experience that i wanna share that happened today just before i came here. the bishop knows a kid that committed suicide and he wanted us to go to the funeral because there were gonna be tons of non members because it was a split religion funeral. that was super interesting.. anyway.. it was just such a testimony builder of life after death and the role of the book of mormon. there was a speaker that said "there is no proof of what happens after death" and that struck me. i know the book of mormon is true and that there are sooooo many people out there that have no idea about it or anything. There were a couple of other things that happened there that probably shouldnt be shared just for respect but the funeral was a testimony builder for me.
