Dear Family,
It's been another great week! I remember when I first got to Arizona I was dying in the heat and I did not want to be outside. Now the heat really isn't that bad. I'm getting use to it now and 106 degrees really isn't too bad. This morning was really nice because it was cloudy and about 90 degrees.
It's been interesting working in a small ward. We have met most of the members and have taught a good portion of them the restoration lesson. Right now we are trying to figure out more ideas to find people to teach. Most of the people we talk to on the street have already talked to missionaries before and have friends that are members. It's really important that we have the ward members help us find people to teach because they are more likely to be successful at it. We are planning on working a lot with the youth and get them excited about missionary work. Most of them are going back to school this week so now they will have more opportunities to talk to their friends about the gospel.
I'm not sure what the missionary work is going to be like here when all the kids are in school and all the fathers are at work. I believe we will be getting iPads and using facebook and other online tools sometime soon. I'm guessing sometime by the end of the year, but no one has told us anything official yet so I'm not sure.
I can't believe Ziggy is almost 16. He is almost old enough to drive! I hope he is still there to see Joseph again. Sister Miller's niece, Sister Bennett, was in my zone in the MTC. My zone only had two or three districts, so it wasn't very big.
Thank you for all the prayers. I love you all so much!
Love,
Elder Gandy
