I do know that this church is the true church, more than ever before.

Hey,
This has been a good week.  We taught a lot of lessons this last week so 
it was a really good week.  None of our investigators came to church 
though so that was kind of sad.  We had a great combined 
Priesthood/Relief Society lesson.  We showed some clips from the PMG dvd 
and talked about member work.  It seemed to go over well.  In Sunday 
school we all just went to gospel doctrine since there wasn’t anyone in 
our class.  It was a funny class.  The teacher asked a couple people to 
volunteer to draw some animals on the board.  The best artist in there 
(the one that painted those pics that I sent home) didn’t want to go up 
but he was pressured into it.  So he went up and quickly drew a really 
ugly, crazy looking dog.  As he was sitting down he said quietly that 
the dog was a democrat.  That comment then kinda had a domino effect.  A 
couple minutes later the teacher asked something about TV’s and our ward 
mission leader said that the people were stuck in the tv.  They were put 
inside there in China.  After that the class was pretty much back to 
normal.  I don’t know if that sounds very funny, the way I explained it, 
but it was a pretty humorous class.

I have started to write in my journal and exercise almost every day.  It 
has really been a blessing.  I feel so much better.  I am so glad that I 
have been blessed with the opportunity to serve a mission for the Lord.  
I do know that this church is the true church, more than ever before.  I 
love you all and am glad that Erik is doing awesome and got asked to the 
dance.  Is she cute?  That was a great idea to answer back.  (Block of 
ice with his answer frozen in the middle) I enjoyed cheating on my
creativeness by looking at the ideas in Brooke's book.  (Erik did too!)
I hope yall continue to do well in all that you do.  Stay close to the 
Lord and I love you all.

Love,
Elder Gray
