Dear Dad,
I'll email you this week for
you and mom. Please forward this on to her.
This week has been an awesome week and now I''m so excited to go out to the field. I just want to be able to go out there and work. This week I've been learning about teaching people not lessons a lot... I never really understood what that means before I taught my investigator for the last time. When we where sitting there and asking him about why it's important to follow the Savior, we had the feeling to read part of 2nd Nephi 31 with him and then asked him to be baptized. When he answered that he already had, we asked him if he had prayed and had received an answer that it was true. Then we bore witness of the restored Gospel of Jesus Christ. I've never felt the spirit so strong. It was like the spirit was punching us all in the face. It's amazing how much the Lord will bless you with the things that you must say if you do your part and really seek and ponder out the needs of the investigator.

It's great to hear everyone else is doing well. I'm kind of sorry I missed moving Brittani and Sean in. But at the same time I'm not really-ha! You'll have to send me some pictures of their house. It sounds like Brandon and Melissa and Max are doing great and same with Brooke and Zac and Lizzie. It sounds like work is going very well to. That's exciting to have stake conference you'll have to give me a summary of what President Welch says because it always makes a huge impact on my life.
I'm so excited to go out to NC. I'll send you the memory card like a week after I get there when I've taken some pictures of it out there. Thank you for the package to it was very nice to get some mail. A scripture that has really helped me turn to the Lord when I'm struggling is Alma 7 11-12 i think... it talks about the atonement and how it's there for our pains and afflictions as well as our sins. It brings great comfort to me and I'm so blessed to have the opportunity to bring that same comfort to others. I love you all.
love, Elder Miller.
