Hello everyone,

So this week was well different haha but out here ive learned to expect the unexpected!  So it started out really good tuesday and wednesday flew by!  On wednesday we taught seven lessons which is the most since i have been here it was cool to do that!  I love it when we are so busy there is no time to even say what should we do next? That is when time flys bye!  I might have mentioned this before but me and elder swett sat down and just thought to ourselves we really need to start working with the ward better so we sat and planned how!  We came up with a lot of ideas but mainly we knew we need to take members out to lessons with us more! So we came up with a plan every friday night we do what is called a splits night!  Anyone that wants to come can! We meet at our senior couple trailer and we eat bannana spilts haha and then we go out and teach two lessons each so elder swett splits up with me and he goes with another preisthood holder and i do too and we go out and teach 4 lessons total its really cool! I mean who doesnt like banana splits haha?   So thats good the ward seems to like the idea!  Remember that if you can and if you are ever asked to go out with the missionaries DO IT!  Its not scary at all its fun! The missionaries are only there for a couple months then they get transfered when the members are there forever and they can always welcome in those investigators and less actives! 

Also this week we visited a recent convert family!  They have been having lots of different experiences with evil scary stuff happening!  They have a son who lives up on the hill in a doublewide trailer he just barely bought a month ago ever since he has been staying there he says there are knocks under the trailer ALL NIGHT there are like moans and growls that come from his back room and he has been seeing a lady holding a baby in his trailer! He says he hears a coyotte howl every night at exactly 10:30 haha personal i dont think thats a coyote i think that a straight skin walker! haha So basically he is telling me all this inside this haunted house and in the meantime im scared out of my mind!  Back home i would have been out the door running as far away from that place as i could haha but out here i have to be that cool calm 18 year old missionary that i am haha So basically we all knelt down in prayer and we blessed the house stated the preisthood and everything we got done and well it still felt the same lots of evil was still there which i didnt get at all? then me and elder swett remember something our bishop out here told us if your ever in that kind of situation you need to raise your arm to the square state the preisthood and demand those evil spirits to leave! So thats exactly what we did! I'll admitt it was pretty scary me and elder swett two 18 year old boys in there fighting off satan haha it was good though because i came to realize that there is no power on earth greater than the preisthood from god!  Satan may look really powerfull but he has got NOTHING on the preisthood!  Love you all have a great week!

Love Elder Rushton
