11/8 email

I'm doing amazing, how are you doing?! :D My new companion elder simmons is pretty cool, he is from billings montana. He used to be a skateboarder at home. He is way super excited for everything we are doing which is really cool, and anyone we see or walk by he walks right up and talks to them, so that is pretty awesome. Yeah and our last week was great we had a lot of fun. Haha holy cow though we were driving home around 9 pm, heading home, and as i was driving through an intersection some crazy lady just jumped in front of our car!!!!!!! Holy cow mom, i cranked on that wheel so hard and fast and i was just ready for us to hit her, but somehow we missed her by like a milimeter haha it was sooooooooo freaky. I know Heavenly Father was looking out for us there, because we should have ran into her because she literally just jumped in front of the car and somehow we got out of the way. Haha how bad would that have been if i actually did hit her, with Elder Simmons his 2nd day in the missionfield, holy cow that would have been bad. But i prayed for awhile that night to thank Heavenly Father for saving us and that person. WHew that was crazy.

Being a zone leader is pretty fun. My zone leader COmpanion is ELder Larson and he is just the funniest person of all time haha. He reminds me a ton of joel's companion elder bailey. Haha i love it and since we are zone leaders together we get to go travel around all the areas in our zone to see how they are doing and spend some fun time together so that is pretty fun. Being a trainer too is a little different, because i am this missionaries first view and picture of what our mission is like you know? And i just really want to do my best so elder simmons can love it out here and continure to be a good missionary throughout. So i am doing all i can to be the best trainer i can. Its pretty cool seeing how he teaches and where i can help him with it. Its a lot of fun. THis is going to be a really fun transfer. :)

Oh and yes things are still set for our baptism on the 13th! Woo Hoo its going to be amazing! haha i am just so excited because Maria is such an awesome spanish lady and she just loves and embraces the gospel. It is sooooo cool mom, i love it. And it will be a really good experience for elder simmons to participate in a baptism so early in his misison too, it will pump him up for sure. So keep Maria in your prayers, everything with it is still on track, but extra help is nice because satan is out here working just as hard.

Haha yes mom it is getting cold here. It was in the low 40's for most of last week, and it snowed a little bit one of the days. But the good thing is they have an indian summer out here, which is just some point in the winter it warms up and that's happening next week so i am way excited about that. haha i'm such a wimp to the cold, but there are so many place to get winter stuff and i already have alot so i'll be warm.

I'm sorry that jess lost her job, that is never good. WHy did that happen? I'm glad she is feeling a lot better though. It sounded like she was going to die in the last email you guys sent me about her! Maddux thinking Jesus is batman may be one of the funniest things i have ever heard in my entire life! haha holy cow that is soooo funny, i love him and reese so dang much. I look at pictures of them on my wall every night. And i can't wait to see pictures of vander, he is going to be a stud and probably punch joel in the arm in the way out like he always use to punch me. Oh yeah and mom i got my meds and the memory cards so thank you! ANd i am sending out a lot more pictures to you guys today so lookfoward to them in the mail, they are going to be awesome. Alright mom well i love you so much and keep being amazing. I have the best mom in the world i am so lucky, i love you and i'll hear from you soon!

Love,
Elder Ingram
