HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!

Joseph's letter from June 16

Hey Family,
                 I want to first say HAPPY FATHERS DAY! I hope you had a fun day yesterday dad. Well this week has been fairly boring for me as well. We have settled in and our new place is really nice and in a good location. On Monday we played games with Nash and Sean. They are two young men in the branch. On Tuesday we went with the Donovan's (Sean's family) to Greenbrier to get our car. We then walked around and met some crazy people. Then on Wednesday we walked around and met some more crazy people. Then in the evening we went to Sean's house and read some of the Book of Mormon with his dad who isn't a member. On Thursday we had a meeting in Little Rock so we drove to Brother Carr's, then we rode with him to our meeting. It was a good meeting. It was kinda a farewell for President and Sister Petersen. They focused a lot on living like you believe and always doing good. After our meeting we went to dinner with Brother Carr then we went to Jacksonville because he had high council meeting. After that we came home. Friday we went to Clinton to give up our key to the house down there. We stopped and saw Miss Kitty one more time. We then came back up and went with Nash to the Donovan's to chop and stack some wood for them. It was lots of fun and I got attacked by my first tick. They aren't as bad as everyone makes them out to be. Saturday we did some planning for this next week with Nash and Sean. We then meet up with the sisters in the area and they gave us some people we could go see. We went and saw a few of them. One of them was recovering from surgery so we talked with his wife a little and will go back this week. Then we decided to go to a town called Prim to go see a less active. We were going down this dirt road and then it just dead ended into a river. So we turned around and will go another day. On Sunday, church was good the talks were about fathers. This next week we get to talk on missionary work. Well during priesthood we went in with the young men and talked about missionary work with them and we are going to do it again next week. It is lots of fun up here and the branch really likes us. After church we went  home teaching with Nash and Sean. We then went to the Donovan's and talked with Sean's dad again. 

                 Overall it has been a good and fun week. It sound like everything is going good over there so that is good. I am not getting transferred so I will be here for 6 more weeks and it will be fun. Thanks for all y'all do for me. I love and pray for y'all.
