Family,
The past week here in Nome has been better than the first week. Elder Morrison and i are involved with the community in several ways. First we play on the city b-ball league, keep score for the city league, coach 5th-6th graders in basketball and coach the Jr. High girls teams. This helps us out by getting the 'Mormons' known and making people interested in the church and what it stands for. So when we do our tracting we will be more likely to be let in.
The town is very small and can be tracted out in a couple weeks but this way keeps us busy and working with non-members.
Also this last week the ocean froze over and looks just like flat land. The ice isn't thick enough yet but in the middle of December there will be a lot of people fishing and crabbing.
We have been teaching this lady and her kids and last night we partially challendged her, she just can't accept that her baptism wasn't valid and that she needs another baptism. Well we will continue to work with her and hopefully she will be baptized.
The members here in Nome have been taking really good care of us. They have been inviting us over for dinner and even buying us food. I really don't think that it will cost me as much to live here as it did in Fairbanks.
So Shalene hurt her ankle and Lorin is getting over his injury and Mark and Lorin are moving out, Tammy and Mark are getting married and Dad is finally back to work. Boy if that doesn't sound like a soap, I don't know what does! That's great that things are going good for you, you are always in my prayers and I love you all. Elder Daren
