This is quite possibly the last P-day I will spend in Elko. I will find out on Saturday whether I stay or I go. Either way I will feel accomplished here. We did amazing work here and wrought some eternal changes here in Elko.
I cannot believe how much snow you all got! We have not gotten that much snow in one day. Over all I think we've had about 18" of snow in total this winter. Looks like you all had a ton of fun!
I don't know if I told you all but I finished the Book of Mormon again a couple of weeks ago. We read with a focus on Christ and I feel that I grew much closer to him in this experience.
So this last week was fairly uneventful. The biggest event was Sunday. We had 8 of our investigators at church on Sunday. On Saturday we were out working all day and came home completely exhausted but full of joy from the success we had. Sunday was equally as exhausting but not physically this time. Rather it was mentally exhausting! Having to escort our investigators through church and listen to each word spoken by each teacher to make sure nothing was said that might put them off will do that to you. Whew. But it all paid off in the end. Both our investigators and ourselves received the blessings.
One cool story from that Sunday, which I don't know if I shared with you all yet is about the Z family. I included a picture. But last week Bro. Z went out and bought a suit for Sunday!!!! This man is solid. And not just for himself but he is setting a great example for the rest of his family. He plans on being baptized with his 3 other kids at the end of the month.
Family I hope you all are enjoying hearing from me each week and I hope that my letters convey the joy I am encountering on my mission. And more than anything I want you all to know how much I truly love each and every one of you! You are my eternal family and there is no other family I'd rather spend eternity with.
Love,
Elder Cronin
