Football, American Football - 10/17/11

Good Afternoon Everybody,

This week has been a pretty good one. Elder Ward got a little sick so we had
to come in early two days. It was not good. We were unable to reach our
goals that was the sad part about the week, It is funny how little things
like that make you feel bad when you are on your mission.

That is way cool that Tate and Tavner got their calls to serve, Oh man they
are going to love it. It sounds like some adventurous places. And way
exciting. Tell them I said congratulations

Well we got transfer calls, and I am training Elder Ward again. With this
two transfer training program I kind of figured that is what would happen. I
am looking forward to it East Coast has some really prepared people in it,
but at the same time will I ever get out! haha

Today we played Football, Yes American Football. It was sweet!! even though
I am dead tired now. It is good exercise, and heaps of fun. I am still
losing wait I think. I feel good either way. I do have some walking legs now
so those Deer and Elk better watch out when I get back. haha

Well I am loving my mission, learning more then I could of imagined.
President Gamiette wrote me a e mail, so that made me feel good. I am kind
of scared for next transfer though... his e mail was all about pushing our
selves, and how much we learn when we are in hard situations. He is one
inspired man.

Ill talk to you next week love you all, thank you for you letters and
support. I feel so lucky and blessed to have such good support from you all.

Love Elder Hartshorn

P.S. This Gospel means everything to me. I love serving the Lord and I know
without him I am nothing. NOTHING. I know now why I had a hard time at
school and focusing, it was because i did not put my trust in the Lord but
tried to do everything my self. When life get hard or trails come put your
burdens on the Lord, and show your faith by knowing that he will help you. I
know he will. He loves you, you are his covenant people.
