Still in G-ram...Email for 7-18-10

Sup Playas,

Yes, I'm still in Graham. This last week has been insane! We baptized that crazy lady HARD-CORE! She brought her service dog and Elder Warner held it while me and Elder Ludwig baptized her. When we got to the church for the baptism yesterday she was already there. She had an American Flag and was twirling with it while bumping weird monk chanting from her car. She said she was paying homage. Weird. But she got way calm and normal right after the ordinance was done. So stressful. Teaching this lady was like teaching a 4 year old on Crack.
Other than that we did a bunch of tracting, and found a whole ton of inactive folks that the ward didn't know about.
Speaking of "the ward". Sacrament meeting has been exclusively about temple ordinances for the past 2 weeks. SO DUMB, but I talked with the ward council about it and they're going to try and sensitive to the fact that we have investigators there so I hope the topics get tied to the Savior more. Anyhoo, I loves you tons and hope your all doing well.

LOVE
Elder Uppencamp

Hey Peeps,

NO WAY! That is the coolest thing ever, go Lynn! (Andrew's rocker friend Lynn is getting baptized.)
Yeah, it's still pretty slow here. Our crazy investigator called me at 12:00am last night. She's probably not getting baptized any time soon. Lame, It's looking like this will be my first transfer without a baptism.
The fourth was way fun. There's Indian rez'es all over the place here so the fireworks are pretty intense.
As far as talking to that husband guy, just go for it. Say why we do it and say that it really won't effect him at all. God'll help you out, this is obviously something he wants you to do, and she probably wants you to do it too. (A have a friend that passed away who is waiting for her work to be done.)
Yup, can't wait for the package. I loves you guys. Happy 5th of July!

Love
Elder Uppandover
