Letter from March 10

Hey Family,
                  This week has been good. On Monday I mentioned that it had iced and everything was covered in ice. Well we didn't do too much of anything on Monday. Tuesday was about the same. We drove around a little which was scary because people here don't know how to drive in the snow. It took us an hour to drive about 5 miles because everyone was going 5 mph and getting stuck in the snow. It was fun to play in the snow and see snow again. Well on Wednesday we had zone meeting in Bartlett. The roads weren't too bad but it took us 2 hours to get there. Memphis didn't get hit as hard as we did. They had nothing on the ground just a little snow here and there. Zone meeting we talked about faith, repentance, baptism, holy ghost, and enduring to the end and how there is an order to the principles of the gospel. President came and did interviews it was lots of fun. After zone meeting I went on exchanges with Elder Schut. We had a good time in West Memphis trying too see lots of people. We talked with Delores (a lady me and Elder Sakurada found the week before) and she seemed excited to learn the gospel. After seeing Delores we had dinner and then went to the Teeters. They are doing good and we had a good visit with them. On Thursday we exchanged back and went around and saw a few people and talked to some people on the street. On Saturday we went to Sherry and David. We talked with them about Mormon.org and the gospel library app. We then went to the Barnums and taught Noland at their house. It was a good lesson and this next week he should get interviewed for baptism. After Noland we went to go see Delores but she wasn't home. We then went to the Teeters for dinner and had a good time over there and shared some Mormon messages with them. on Sunday Noland came to church. We tried to get Delores to come but she had a family emergency when we got there. Well church was good and we learned a lot about being humble. Also cool thing the 2nd councilor in the temple presidency came with his wife. They are brother and sister Moline. We had a good talk about how cool everyone is and especially G&G Talbert. After church we went to the Russell's for a little then we had dinner at the Andersons. That was lots of fun because their house is always so crazy- it reminds me of home with all the drama going on. 

                           Well that's it for my week. I hope y'all have a great week and have a good day off of school. Thanks for all y'all do for me. I will be praying for y'all.
Love Elder Talbert
