Johannesburg Dog Finnaly gets Elder Tyrell.

1. They alot us about R1,000 every 4 weeks
2.Yeah the amont is fine. As long as your smart with it.
3. I don't really know if you can compare them. There are less rooms.
4. Elder Garner is from sugar city Idaho. but he has lived in texas as well.
5. Not really. There to Expensive to buy.
6.My companion has been out for 11 months.
7. I havn't stood in the water with anyone yet. IT's encouraged to find members of the ward, prefferably, fellowshipers to do that.
8. Elder Walgamott is from Magna, Elder Mcombs is from, Fruit Heights, and I am from good old sevier.
9.Nope but i give lots of talks to investigators.
10. Not really. Members make some pretty good stuff around here. But interesting story. I'm not sure if i told you or not but a few days before Elder Martin was leaving, an investigator made Chiken feet for us and we ate that. There wasn't much to eat but it didn't tast horrible. And we had chiken hearts. That was good. Yesterday, Sister nombeko, a recent convert has been feeding us dinner on sunday's gave us a plate of food that looked a little bit strange, but familiar. After i looked at it for a minute i realized that it was a dish called mallamogodu (Tripe) Or (Intestines) after figuring out what it was, I was a little bit skeptical as to whether i was going to be able to eat it or not. Finally Sister Nombeko said "Just eat it. It's nice". So i just dug in. After i put the first bite in my mouth i realized that it acctually wasn't that bad, but Nombeko said you have to prepare it right. I'm going to have to get a picture of some to send to you sometime. Although it wasn't bad, I don't know if i can eat to much of it, because the thought still gets me a little bit.
Well as for missionary work. things have still been a bit slow because i think everyone is still in the holiday mood. So almost every appointment we have set this last week has Cancelled on us or wern't there when we showed up. So it's been a bit frustrating, but it has made way for us to be able to meet lots of new people due to the tracting we have been doing. This week also we had mission tour, where one of the seventy came to speak to us. Elder Wattson came and he talked about alot of things that we need to keep records of, especially in our journal's he said that the scriptures are journals of the prophets and they are permanant records of truth. He said the records we keep on our missions will also be records of those we have baptized and the personal revelations that we recive. He also said that our names will be in the records of those we baptize. It was a really cool meeting where we learnd alot. And i have records of them in my study journal so it's pretty sweet. So here's another story for you and you will probably laugh mom. On friday we were going to check on a young man that we had only met once before and hadn't been able to contact afterwards. We got there and we found that he wasn't there. so as we turned around there was a dog sitting there looking at us, wich wasn't unusuall because lots of people have dogs. But as soon as we got on our bikes and started to ride away. the dog went nuts and started chasing me and my companion. so as we sped up the dog reached out and got ahold of my shoe and took a big chunk out of the soul. I got my foot away but the dog kept chasing and i just started laughing because my feet were in the air and i couldn't put them down. Finally the dog stopped and wen't back, but it was pretty intense. After all of the time i have been scared of dogs as a kid, finnaly as a missionary one gets ahold of me...Figures.

Well i've got an Idea for family home evening wich i was going to send to c.. But i'm not sure if he's up to it, Being Crippled and all. anyway here it goes.

Read (nephi 3:3, 19-20; 4:15-16; 5:21-22: Mosiah 1:3-7)
Why did Nephi's family need the brass plates?
Why do We need the book of mormon?

Make a list of friends who don't have the Book of mormon, and talk about how you can get them a copy and invite them to church.

After that you can organize FHE however you wan't but that was just a suggestion.

Well i'm out of time. Sorry i didn't get a chance to e-mail everybody, Just remember i still love everybody and i always love e-mails from everyone. I wish i got more from C., J., and M..

Love

Tyrell

1.How do they pay your mission allowance for the month to you?
2. Is the amount covering all that you need?
3. Your apartment looks nicer then your college apartment is that true?
4. Where is Elder Garner from?
5. Do you eat lots of nuts from there, like cashews?
6. How long has your companion been out?
7. So how many people have you baptized as of today. I mean stood in the water with or how does that work do you count even the ones you teach?
8. The other flat-mates where are they from?
9. Have you had to give a talk in sacrament meeting yet?
10.Is there any foods that you are missing as of yet.
Mothers note: HEEEHEEELOL Tyrell was bit by a racoon when he was 10, he even had to protect his little brother in the whole shanangan that occured that day. The end results, he became afraid of Dogs and Cats. He had been the best salesman on the block until this happened. He wouldnt even do the scout food drives to houses where he knew the dogs wouldn't bite. I would tell him when you go on your mission a dog is going to get you if you don't figure out how to get over a fear that wasn't even made by a DOG mind you. So today I am laughing he did get past the fear but there must be just a tiny smell of it on him cause why didn't it get his companion. HAHAHAHAHAHALOLOLOL.
