Wow that is some crazy weather!! I can't believe that it hailed on you! It sounds like the weather has been doing some crazy things lately. Seth will be a great missionary! I can't believe that Westley is getting ready to leave already that is crazy!! I bet he did a great job. I think that's pretty funny that my friends still come over to see you guys, they are your friends too haha That is quite the bunch of people being ward missionaries, that is one brave bishop we've got to put Richard, Jake, and Bishop Beck together! I bet that is just a party and a half!! Katie Brown is awesome they are a really great family! This week has been great!! It's kind of crazy time feels different as a missionary all of the days and weeks just kind of mush together. But I am having a ton of fun!!! We have been working a lot with the "African American Community" and......amen to everything Jake ever said about them hahaha It has been an interesting experience and I have seen and heard things this week that I never would have imagined haha We have been doing a lot of stuff in the hood and we even played some ghetto ball with like 12 black kids the other day, it was a lot of fun! You never really know what it means to always have a prayer in your heart until you are biking in some sketchy neighborhood with a bunch of big ol black dudes that are looking at you like they really want to hurt you haha But I just have faith like my mama taught me, use my head like my daddy taught me, and bike away really fast when you can tell that they are not sober like jessa taught me! :) haha But we have meet some really amazing people that I know the lord has been preparing. One guys name is Tobias and he has been working a lot on changing his life and turning it around and he had been praying and looking for a church when we found him and we taught him the Restoration on Sunday and you can just tell that he has a really good heart! I love meeting new people. I just love to hear about peoples lives and help them to know that the gospel can help them! I know that probably sounds cheesy but it is so much fun and makes me so happy to help others feel of the Saviors love for them!! We got caught in a bad rain storm this week too. We were at the hospital giving this inactive sister brock a blessing and when we came out it was raining like crazy!! And we tried to wait it out for a minute to see if it would slow down but it just got harder and harder! So we went through it and we got soaked haha but it was kind of fun to bike in the rain! I am doing wonderful and I am having so much fun! Thank you for your love and prayers I can feel them everyday!! I meet a lot of people that don't have any family at all here and it just makes me so grateful for my amazing family! I am so blessed!! Hope you have a great week!! I keep you in my prayers too! I love you!!! Love Elder Dye I hate to ask for this but I could really use 3 or 4 more pair of garments. I sweat so much and get rained on so much that sometimes I have to change them twice a day and then I run out of clean ones so I have to re-wear some. So any way that is just an idea for sometime it doesn't have to be this package. My stamps are pretty good and pens are always awesome. But I really am not in dire need of anything I love you!!!!
