Hi Everyone. This is Andy's mom. Below is Andy's letter from this week. We were able to communicate online yesterday trying to work out a way to get him some money. I had just sent him a debit card because his earlier one expired. Not confident that he would ever actually get the debit card, I sent it through the regular postal service anyway. And to my surprise, he actually did receive it, only to have it eaten/stolen at a fake ATM machine. So - we worked out a way to send him some cash through his Mission President. He only has 22 days left before he heads home and wants to buy some gifts/souvenirs. Andy will arrive back home on Wednesday night, October 27th. Dan and his family, and Anna will be in town to see him. After a short time here, he will head out to Denver and Seattle to visit with Maria and Robert and their families for a week. Then after Christmas Andy will head back to BYU-Idaho to start back to college. Thanks for your support, it has been a blessing to him and to us - we appreciate your prayers and your concerns. -Lots of Love, Laura
ANDY'S LETTER:
So - Mom, you asked me about the condition of my clothes. I don't really have any clothes besides church clothes. The clothes I brought for p-days are torn up bad - I super glued them together so they will last my last few weeks. My white shirts look so bad, and my garments are horrible. So the thing is, I don't really have anything to bring home to say the truth. I mean I don't own anything. I want to buy some clothes here because they're cheap and yea - some gifts. I could probably fit it all in one bag of luggage. So I'm not too worried about space. But now to my week;
So the week was pretty awesome, and why you might ask? Well it was general conference weekend. O-Yea! So that just made everything awesome. But besides that we went on an exchange Wednesday and that was way fun. We also had another special transfer, so now we have a new missionary in the zone. But he is not really new at all because he was the first kid I trained. :P, which is awesome. I love that kid so much. Also we received 3 referrals this week. One is an awesome family. So things are progressing really well in the investigator section. I just hope that they are already married. Why is it that nobody is ever married? But yea that was my week. I hope every one else had an awesome week.
Love Ya, Elder Woestman
