Elder Phillips, he's a Utah fan!Wednesday, September 16, 2009
that's what it's all about...
well it seems like the family is doing great. yep the call
came and im training a new missionary. his name is elder
Phillips from Whicita Kansas he is a pretty cool kid i think
it will be good. He is a utah fan so thats really good.
thats fun that mandy fill and logan and them went camping
i bet that was fun i miss the mountains, my last comp
is lucky he is a huge hunter and just got sent up to the
mountains where all the hunters and stuff are. its good
to hear max had a good time i miss him and its awesome
thats he like the four wheelers. thats fun that
you guys went up to fish lake and had a good time, its no
Lakewood lake, but im sure you had fun. we might go fishing
today or maybe go into tempe and play some ball but i dont
know. thats fun that yo;u guys are having the missionaries
over its always a good time at the knaphus household. we
are teaching a guy named jeff who is amazing at the bass
quitar he is in 5 diff bands. last week he had concerts 6
of the 7 days but last night we had a lesson and he brought
his 6 string bass and performed for us he is way good. his
name is jeff Leece you should check him out online. but he's
a really good genuine guy we're going to give him a baptismal
date next week. to anwser moms question im still a district
leader. if you send me food and stuff send stuff like jerky
and dried mangoes i like that kind of stuff more than candy.
thats awesome that spencer and phylls are goign to the temple
and the jones are coming down if they want to come visit
tell them to give me a call im only like a half hour away
from the temple. i have met a few people who knew the Eltons
its pretty cool. and one family the other night who loved
them their names the burns and jarret lived there for a while
they are really good people and we are supposed to be teaching
their friend this sunday. but everything else is going great
we had Brittani's baptism last Saturday and it was amazing.
it was a really good babtism there was a lot of support,
it was a solid program. i just got an email from her just
giving thanks and how she loves the gospel so much and how
its changed her life and some cool quotes she has found in
the Book of Mormon. thats whats its all about. we are
teaching a few other people who are doing good. last lesson
we had with drew was good we taught him the gospel and
really tried to put him on date for baptism but it didnt
quite work, but maybe next time. then there are a few
other people who we are trying to get set up and i think
they will progress really swiftly, so it will be good to
get in the groove with this new missionary and show him
the ropes here in Ahwatukee. but thank you for everything
all the support love you all and have a great week.

Caught 18 fish...
well hello. it seems that everything is going great that is amazing to
hear that oly got the rock and defeated skyline!! sister zeigler
called me and let me know it was pretty awesome but i also got
a call from my last companion and he said that mandy texted so
that is funny i have a new phone number haha
oh i was super close to going to the cardinals game against the
packers the zeiglers had 3 tickets so we were going to go with
brother z. we were just going to go but we figured we might
want to call pres and he said no so that was sad the stadium
isnt in our mission and it wasnt p day but.. it would have been
sweet. well things have been pretty good this is the last week
of the transfer thats pretty crazy it will be interesting to see
what happens im not sure. but the transfer will end with
a bang cuz the investigator, whos named Brittany, is getting
baptized this Saturday so thats is awesome. we had a lesson
early this morning to get everything set up for it so thats
pretty awesome. she loves the gospel and she's trying to
bring her sister in and things so it been neat. then the
other peeps who are doing well. jeff he is the guitarist.
we had a lesson with him yesterday it was really good
taught about the faith repent baptism etc and he enjoyed
and said he would get baptized and he loves the church
and the influence of the spirit he has felt, but he needs a
little more faith, so he going to keep reading and come
to church he's super busy with concerts and things but
he is going to do a mini performance for us next lesson so
i will have to film it but he's a really genuine guy. then theres
Drew and we went to the visitor center with him the other
day and he's doing really good kind of the same deal with
jeff though he's really enjoyed everything thus far he just
wants a little time to soak it all in and its frustrating to be
patient sometimes but what can you do. then theres a
dude named chad and he is really cool guy his wife is a
member and she is awesome she cuts our hair but we
had a lesson Sunday and taught him some basic
commandments like prayer and script study he's been
taught all the first 3 lessons and just wants some time
too, but its funny cuz his wife pushes him so hard to get
baptized but their awesome and i think we shooting on
baptizing him November so..but the lesson we had was
awesome it was with the Eggberts the Mathesons
relatives and they were amazing really helped chad
out alot. incredible fellowship. then there is a few others
but we havnt been able to work with them this week
theyre really busy with work and school starting back
up and things so.. but the work is going good we are
staying pretty busy and having a good time. this
morning we got up at like 5 30 and went fishing i
caught 18 fish and my comp caught 20 in under 2
hours it was sweet. but it is good to hear from you
guys hope all is well and everyone has a great week
love you all and thanks for all the support.
