Dear Mom, 

That sounds like a pretty cool weekend and that you got to listen to some really cool talks in stake conference. I got to have another cool weekend as well. We got to go out and do regular missionary work this saturday it was so awesome. We just went out and started contacting and knocking on doors like I will be in the field every day. We had a missionary from one of the Lima missions lead us around he was such a great example of a missionary. He always made me talk in every lesson and to the people that we were contacting. Our area had to be one of the hardest ones that they threw us new guys into, it was seriously on the side of a mountain and we hiked all the way to the top house just to teach people and it was worth it we gave out all of our books of mormon that we were given to give to people and all of our pass along cards and almost all of our pamphlets on church principles. So we had a lot of success but my companion and I did not reach any of our goals so we were kinda sad until we got back and saw how everyone else did we might have had the most success out of all the people from the mtc we got into more houses and contacted more and taught more lessons so I was really happy about our successes. And you can tell dad that even though we walked up and down mountains that I still did not get behind the missionary that had been out for a while so i guess i already know how to walk really fast. The sad thing that happened this week is my latin companion left to go out into the field. Im going to miss the guy and I hope he does really well.  I am going to attach som pictures for you to look at.

Love,
Elder Hendrix
