Best regards, Weston's editor - BWS]
Dear Family,
Once again, as I usually am when I write you, I am doing very well! We had our Zone Conference yesterday and I was able to learn even more again this week. There is alway room for improvement in our lives, no matter how we are doing at something. This past week was a bit of a trip but now finally I feel like I am 100% in on what is going on in the area. I am actually back in Inca for the time because for the moment we are in charge of both areas until we can get some more missionaries into the area. It was nice coming back to Inca yesterday because it was kind of like coming back home (but not like coming home, it just felt familiar and welcoming). We were able to get together with our Ward Mission Leader and the Branch President of Inca and update them on what our plans are for these areas. It is an interesting experience to say the least and I´m excited to see what September brings. We have a lot of our strong members in the city who are unable to attend church regularly for the time being so that´s going to become another factor for how the progression of Inca will go. I am excited though. It´s going to be a good time in the mission!
Last week we were running into a bit of a wall with some of the people out in Manacor. Elder Swenson is such a sweet guy but even he got a bit down and one of the nights he just prayed and prayed that we would be able to find more people that are ready to listen to us. The very next morning we got a call from our Zone Leaders and they had a referral It was a 17 year old girl that lives in Inca that they met in Palma and she said she was very excited to have us over! Just one of the many ways that we recieve blessings after we demostrate our faith through our works!
I´m always excited to be hearing from you all and it seems like each week life gets more and more exciting! I'm so glad to be a part of our family and I hope you all are okay with having me in your lives. I LOVE YOU Daddy, Mommy, Joey, Danny, Andy, Chrisy, and Nicky!
Os quiero,
Élder Xander Weston Schindler
P.S. If it would be possible, I would like to get my vote in for this election. I´ve heard that there is a form I just have to fill out for the open-ballet and then send it to you or just somewhere. Thanks much!
P.P.S. I got the postcard you sent from Wyoming! Thanks for the love!
