Weekly Letter - Tuesday May 8, 2012


Dear Family & Friends,

This week has been good, Hard but good :)   I am really trying to speak more spanish and i have been reading out of the spanish BOM or LDM every day out loud for an hour and it really helps

I have been on 4 exchanges so far and it is kind of ridiculous. We have been to Vancouver twice and that was fun!

Let me start of with 'The questions from mom!'

We went to the Temple today and it was amazing it is a really small temple but everything is just amazing I wish I could say more but i cant =)

Well plans do not ever stay the way they are supposed to and that is always really hard for me because i like when my plans stay the way that they are supposed to!  but they dont and that is alright.

This week I planted a garden =)  It was an unplanned service opportunity.  As it turned out it was really fun.  We were pulling weeds and planting flowers and yes sadly I was in a suit.  But that is alright because i did not get any dirt on it.

I hope Meghans Test are going very well!!! She is a smart Girl. Love you Megsie!!!

Justin is going for youth council huh?  That is pretty gool im glad that he is doing that that will be good for him =)

Christopher man i still cant believe school is out already !! that is crazy!!

Today is my 3 month aniversery =) Kinda crazy how fast time has been flying!!!

So for this Sunday I am going to be calling about 6 o'clock my time here so I believe if i am right that is 7 o'clock your time but you better check me on that.

The people that we are teaching hmmm ...... Well were to start:

I am not sure if I am allowed to put their Names or not - Ok so i just read the white hand book and it said it was ok.

So we teach Migel y Magaly and they are a really young family and they are super cool they are easy to understand we also teach two men that are here working their names are Juan Carlos and Alejandro and they are really cool as well they havent come to church but we are hoping that  they come this week. We are also teaching another family out in Port Coquitlam it started of as just the mom but she ended up making her husband come and sister and mom and now she is bringing friends and so she is doing work and we are not even having to ask for them. Then we just found a Lady named Nati and she is super awesome she works at a hospital she was a member referal and it seems to be going well.

The Members are really awesome and really supportive they make some interesting food but they have some really cool stories! at least i think.... sometimes they talk really really fast!! but it sounds cool to me :)

I dont know what you mean by friends i have been talking alot with the Espinosa Family they are super awesome he reminds me of a Spanish Shirl Hanks is what I decided :)

Um and Hermano Diaz he reminds me of Uncle John they act alot alike and its kinda funny they have the same sense of humor its terrible.    Love you John =)

I dont really participate to much in Discussions because I really just try to understand what is being said.

No we do not have iPads and I am not sure we will we are not allowed to skype because it is not in the white hand book so... yeah there is nothing about iPads in the White handbook and so .... yeah that I am
not sure but I know we are very blessed for being obedient so that is ok with me.

Well lets see, like I said it will probably be around 6 that i will end up calling!

My week hasnt really been very exciting I have a few pictures that I am going to add but over all this week has not been very big.

I recieved a lot of answers to prayers this week and that is amazing and a miracle of it self.  I really know that God is there and listens to our prayers fervently!

                                                                               With all my LOVE,

                                                                                Elder Brandon Taylor
