Prayer for An Overheated Car...

well hello how is everyone doing today things are giong great here. it sounds like everyone is doing great in slc. enjoyin some nba finals it crazy the magic are doing so good i hope they win that would be awesome. seems like logan had a good time in Havasu that wold have been neat and thats funny he's into the indian stuff i think its pretty cool maybe i will get a chance to serve on a reservation. thats crazy though that it is raining a lot up there i wish it would rain more down here. but i cant compalin cuz the weather has been really good the last few days its been in the low 90s. that is good that dad finally heard from Oakland and that there is still a chance that he could be working on the Gilbert Temple, that would be cool. i guess its supposed to be a huge temple. but thats not good that dad got weaseled into going to david archuletta man that would have been rough and that also is a bummer that riley has to do summer school thats no fun and being logans little helper that will be interesting. its good to hear the softball team is hanging in there almost beat the best team. seems like ward softball is going good thats always good to hear seems like mom is having a good time on facebook meeting all her friends that must be fun and funny to watch mom facebook. things here have been crazy busy with appointments and meeting and paper work and stuff i don't have time to think about anything else let alone try to write home or anything like that so sorry i tried to write a letter the other day but didnt end up finishing it. We have a lot going on right now Michael is a stud, we had an awesome lesson with him over at the bishops house with like 5 members of the ward and he loved it. He is already gettin his friends to read the Book of Mormon and stuff he's amazing, he loves reading and learning about the gospel and Book or Mormon. then we are baptizing Ramiro the old Mexican dude this Saturday, he is awesome. Quamar the 17 yr old black kid, still wants to get baptized and he comes to church and everything and he's trying to get rid of the girl he lives with, so thats a good sign. There are so many more, there is an endless supply of people to teach and potentials here- its crazy things are really fallin into place. There is this lady who showed up to church a few weeks ago and she wasn't a member she's lookin for a church so we just set up a lesson to teach her and her brother so that seems pretty promising. A neat story that happened last week, that i forgot to tell you about was we were on campus to meet Michael, the sweet investigator, and we ran into the zone leaders and they told us to talk to this dude fixing his car, so we walked over and he was trying to fix his car and his girl friend was with him so we talked to her and she said to talk to him, he doesn't believe in God or go to church so he said he was catholic when he was young and he doesn't understand God and stuff but he said he might believe if his car would stop over heating so I taught him how to pray and he said an awesome prayer and right after his car went to a perfect idle and he was pretty shocked. We got his number and his car didnt overheat the rest of the night. He said he would come to church but he didnt want to believe. He was stubborn and didnt come to church, so we will have to give him a call see if we can meet with him again. but its been neat here in Tempe, transfers are next week, I hope I don't get transferred it would really suck cuz they are moving us out of our appt. to a nicer one and closer to our area. but things are all good here having a lot of fun i am really jealous i would love to go to Slightly Stoopid they're coming to Tempe really soon, too. Maybe some how I will be able to see something, but probably not i miss my music, but what can you do. Thanks for all the support and love enjoy the week. love elder knaphus
