Doug Update
Well Doug has been in the mission field for almost 4 whole months now. He is doing really well and seems super happy. We are very proud of him and the changes he is showing already!
Here is a couple excerpts from his letters:
"We have been so busy, we found 8 new investigators this week. Prior to that the most we found in a week was 4. Two of them Jesu's and Sarah are seventh day adventisit, probably the hardest people to teach because of the seventh day. But they seemed open minded and are way cool so hopfully they can get over the seventh day. These are the first seventh day people that committed to read and pray. "................................."Ellsworth (the church ranch) feels like home it is awesome. We drive around in big ranch trucks looking for gators, coyotes, and wild bore. This kid Lance takes out a rifle and we cruise the ranch it is so awesome. They also feed us fatty steaks not spequetti like every meal we get here in Palm Bay. Everyone is so friendly, they told me to come back after my mission to ride air boats and hunt. I am down." (9-15-08)
"Edeline Charisma asked me to be the one that baptizes her family. So that should be awesome, I have never baptized anyone let alone a family." (9-22-08)

"Well our baptisms went great. I was so nervous because I had never done it before but I did all three the very first time no mistakes".................. "I just wrote a letter like yesturday...the weeks are like two days back home."
"I love you all and don't forget to pray." (9-29-08)

"........on the way home from the Ranch a 250 lg. hog with tusks crossed the road. I loaded the gun and my ward mission leader dropped it right where it was didn't even give it a extra step, needless to say it was awwwwesome. On the down side I had a 150 lb. rot wieler dominate me in the dark. It took me to the grownd and i just punched it while some guy was yelling. I should of called the cops but I had to find the nearest bathroom to check my pants. It was scary."
