Dad:
Elder
Feidler,
So
I guess we won't be hearing from you today since it is Presidents' Day.
Still,
it was a fun and exciting day around our house. In the middle of my sleep last
night I heard the back door open and the alarm chime. It didn't register
what it was with me yet as I was asleep. Then I heard Zack's Mini start
up and drive away! So I rolled over to look at my clock as I had not
heard my 5 AM alarm go off and it said 2:41 AM!!!! I freaked out
and ran out to the kitchen and then the front door to see the Mini tail lights
off in the far distance. I checked Zack's room and he was gone.
I
woke Chelle to see if she had any clue why he might have left and she did
not. So I hopped in our van and went chasing after him. I was
afraid he was sleep walking / driving.
So
I sped off toward the church and ran 2 stop lights only to see him heading back
towards home on South Fork Drive
by the Ford dealer and Chevron gas station. I did a u-turn in the van and
pulled up beside him at the Hwy 288 stop light. He rolled down his window
and said, "I know... wrong time." :-)
Crazy
that kid is!!! He woke up in the middle of the night and thought his clock
said 5:02a (Really 2:05a). So he got ready and left for seminary.
Totally
freaked us out.
That's
it. Hope to hear from you tomorrow.
We need pictures!
Where are the baptism pics of Tonya, Nick and Winter? Did you have another baptism on
Saturday? How was this week? We need back story on these converts
too? Did you teach them from the
start? I can't believe we are over half
way through February! Your half way
point is coming up fast.
All is well here.
Did you get your Valentine package from us? It was just a bunch of junk food. Hope you didn't eat it all at once. You might
be sick.
Here's our week.
Chelle sewing outfit for Cheesy Prom.
Posing for Cheesy Prom.

Myka likes Gringo's ice cream.

Zack washing the classic.

Hello family! What an amazing past week we had! Saturday we
had a baptism for Richard Torres, Stephanie son. Stephanie is the one that
walked into church one Sunday back in November and really liked what she saw.
We had a pretty good turn out for Richards baptism and got 2 nonmember
investigators to go and see how it works. Stephanie daughter who at first was
against her mom joining this church came to the baptism and also to a relief
society activity this past week. We hope to start teaching her soon.
Riding our bikes to the library this morning was a pain...
It has been pouring down raining for the last couple of days, but today as we
started to ride it started to hail on us :( That didn't stop us from making it
here though! :) I am soaked from head to toe though! haha
Thank ya'll for the valentines day package!! I didn't eat
all of the candy myself. I shared it with everyone I came across :) The less
active guy that we helped shovel snow taught me how to make a killer stir fry!
He use to be a chef at a casino and he makes some amazing food. I'm so thankful
for the people I am able to work with and the bond created.
It sounded like you were going to have to start
locking/chaining Zack to his bed so he doesn't sleep walk/drive. There is this
family that we our working with that likes to bible bash us in a nice way. He
is the one that invited us in on a cold day while we were tracting for some hot
chocolate. He is also the guy we went to his church one Sunday morning so he'd
come to ours afterwards. He has questions on how we lived with god before this
life and he doesn't think that god is our father in heaven because in the bible
it talks about as you become converted to Jesus and accept him, He adopts you.
So he thinks we are adopted sons and daughter of god. Also the scripture ion
Corinthians that talks about the three degrees of glory, he thinks it is
talking about our physical and spirtual bodies like it talks about a few verses
down.
40 aThere are also celestial
bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the bcelestial is one, and the glory of
the cterrestrial isanother.
41 There is one glory of the asun, and
another glory of the moon, and another glory of the bstars:
for one star cdiffereth fromanother star in dglory.
44 It is sown a anatural body;
it is raised a bspiritual body.
There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body.
Did you run into many people that brought up things like
this?
Hope you guys have a great week!
Love and miss ya'll!
Dad:
Great week it sounds like! I had ran into a few bible bashing
people on my mission. We never got anywhere. It is better to
just bear testimony and move on. If they are looking for scriptural proof
of everything, there is just too many ways for them to interpret it.
Stay dry!! And send PICTURES from the baptisms.
Great to hear from you. We love you!!
Graham:
Great
Pictures! That's a lot of snow!!! Is that picture from your
apartment balcony??
Graham:
Yep! It is.
