Hey ya awesome family! I miss you guys. It’s so good to hear what’s going on back at home. I’m SO proud of Jordan for getting his Eagle Parabéns (Congratulations) Bro!!! What made that even more special was the video I watched of Jordan saying he is going to give me the Mentor pin when I get back. That was the highlight of my email time. It brought me to tears. Thanks so much Jordan I love you so much!! I’m so glad that I can be a good example for both Jordan and Lauren. I love them so much. I hope I can continue to be a good example to them and that they will make good choices.
This week I have been pretty sick coughing a lot, feeling dizzy, runny nose, and trouble breathing. NOT FUN!!! I am all better now so there is no need to worry. I had the Elders give me a blessing and then the next day I felt super good. The power of Priesthood blessings is real and I am living proof of that and many others. Men who hold the Priesthood need to be exercising it. It does us no good to have it if we never use it. God gave it to us for a reason let’s not forget that. The Priesthood is given to us to bless the lives of others. This is a wonderful blessing that we have in our life. And I am very grateful for it.
Man I can’t believe it but next week is my birthday! That’s crazy! I will turn 19 can you believe that? That’s one year away from 20 and I thought I would never get that old haha. I have taken the advantage of the "after Christmas sales" and got me so new P-day shoes and I really like them. They are navy and I love the color. They look really nice. Elder Doxey I think has something planned for my birthday so I’m going to have to wait and see what it is.
Last P-day we had the opportunity to visit another castle and this one was pretty cool I took lots of pictures. We also went to a dam that was nearby which was really sweet.
Well I love you guys so much and miss you all tons! I hope you guys have a good week this week love you all so much.
With all my love,
Elder Rusnell
P. S. This week I (Jim) was on line at the same time as Tyler and I was able to communicate with him via email. He said that he and his companion are currently working with 8 individuals that are close to baptism and three of them are a family. The work is going well in his area.
