West Point is awesome! Zone leading is fun! It's just super weird because I've gotten so used to district leading and its a whole different world! I love how the church works though! Delegation and all these cool responsibilities really give us a chance to learn and grow! The members here take really good care of us! They feed us every night! I love it because it really gives us awesome opportunities to build relationships with them! Also there is a senior couple here and they are great! They are the Goodiers from Maine and they serve as the military relations senior couple. Ok so we are doing this awesome thing with the members right now. Elder Wadsworth mentioned this talk called "write down a date" by Elder Ballard in the October 1984 general conference! We are committing all of our members to follow elder Ballards counsel to write down a date, for sometime in the near future to have someone over to be taught by the missionaries! We've already had about 7 member families COMMIT to a date! Ahh it's going to be awesome!!! I'll send you our spreadsheet of how we are keeping track. The members here are so faithful! I invite you all to read that talk and do it! And all the missionaries out there reading this invite your members and investigators to do this too!
Me and my new companion live in the city right next to the army academy. We live right off post. (That's how you say it. Its not "base" its post.) My companion is awesome! His name is elder Peterson. He is from Colorado, Idaho, Alaska, Wisconsin, Oklahoma, Missouri, and then he got called to Turkey, then there was a war and he got emergency transferred to Germany, and then he got reassigned to NY! Yeah he's a problem child. Love him though. He's awesome. He has a twin brother serving in North Carolina. We have a blast together. Can't wait to see what's happening with the bishopric! Are you the bishop dad? Can't you just tell me? Sheesh. Its awesome that the walk abouts were so successful! I can not wait to go on huge family trips! They are going to be a blast! I love you all!
