Hey Dudes,

I only got Andrew's email so send yours again I guess (and this next weeks).
I got transferred to the office in Tacoma. They came up to P.A. and took me down early which kinda sucked, but whatever. I get to be with Elder Borland, my roommate from the MTC. So I'm way stoaked.
Yeah, try and send last week's e-mail again I guess, and this week's too. My new address is just the mission office, lemme know If you don't have it already. I love you all! Peace out fools.

LOVE

Hello All

We had a pretty mediocre week. We had a baptism on Saturday, which was sweet. But other than that it was kind of boring. One of our investigators dropped us because he thinks the church is going to get taken over by catholics, he gives us eight years. Tehe.
That's awesome about Zach, give him my best. Tell Andrew to start slapping Chad, and not to stop until he writes me. Same goes for Nathan.
Your package came O.K. by the way. Get on Facebook and see how everyone's doing/tell them to write me (please). I gots to get Emily's address, and Amber's and Heather's and Chelsea's etc. Berger is totally bogarting the mailbox.
Oh, sweet story! Our baptism was really scary. The dude and his wife had been arguing all day, so he was way stressed. At one point he just kinda yelled,"I don't even know if I wanna do this anymore" So we went in the chapel and PRAYED. He calmed down and it all totally worked out. By the way, The Church is true.
Can you get the fam to all write me again? That's always way cool. I love ya'll and I hope your doin' peachy.

Dear Everybody,

NO WAY! I'm so stoked for Nathan! That's awesome. That's way rad about Morgan and Colin to, and Zac, and Grandpa. Good times.
Weeeeelllll, last week was pretty fun. We currently have 2 people committed to be baptized this weekend. One is the Bishops son in law, who's waaay solid. The other is Robert Crittenden. He's probably the smartest guy on earth. He comes from a very intellectual background so exercising faith has been hard for him. He really wants to join the church though. AJ our baptism from two weeks ago got confirmed. We had him help us teach a lesson to one of his neighbors, he's a stud.
We had to ride our bikes for the first time in 2 weeks on Saturday, lame. The ward here is great, and bishop is our best buddy. He takes us around like every day. Anyhoo, tell me how Andrew's doing? I haven't heard from that punk in a long time. Tell Grandpa happy birthday for me. Send some pictures too. Oh and I definitely need a refill. I love you guys, I hopes you doing good.

LOVE
Elder Uptown

Dear Everybody,

Dudes, Conference be awesome. We had a miracle baptism on Friday. When we went to district meeting there was a dude sleeping in the doorway of the church. We woke him up and took him on a tour, he said he'd grown up with a lot of Mormons but he'd never been baptized. So, while on the tour we asked him if he wanted to be. He was totally down! We taught him all the lessons, interviewed him, and baptized him, all in 3 hours. Good times. He's on his way up to Alaska now, and I know things are gonna start turning around for him.
We're still having lots of fun, and our bishop is our best bud. Did you see Amber Zibetti and Heather Bolton singing in the choir?! That was weird. They still need to write me.
Does Louis have his mission call yet? Does Andrew have a job yet? I've probably only got three weeks left in this area so peeps gotta hurry up and write me. I'm glad y'all are doing well, keep on truckin. Love you forevers.

LOVE
Elder Uppencamp

P.S.
