First Area (1/13/2011)

Hey guys! so my first area is called Hereford pronounced hair-fud. My comapanion is Elder Jenkins, he is from idaho just outside of Bear Lake somewhere, He played basketball in High School and i'm excited to work with him. We normally will Email on Mondays because that is our P-day but since i didnt get a P day last week we are emailing today. Hereford isnt a big city its alot more rural i guess the ward here has about 80 members or something. Yesterday the Couple Missionaries picked us up in their car to go meet the bishop. they're names are the Henrys apperently they know the Fiefers in our Ward. Anyways after meeting the bishop we went and had dinner at the ward mission leaders house. He is awesome i met him and his wife and then a recent convert named emma who is now a ward missionary. The ward mission leaders name is Paul Johnson. Paul used to be a big time drinker and he was living with his now wife but at the time they werent married and they had 2 sons. I dunno how long it has been since he was converted but probably 10 years ago and it was just great to hear his story cause he is a stubborn kind scary guy and he said if i can be converted then anyone can. So me and elder jenkinfs are really motivated to kick some butt here and take some names. Oh by the way Hereford is kinda near the Welsh border we have a little corner of Welsh in our area. We are riding bikes and our area covers 30 miles in every directions! lots of hills ahead of me. Well i'll see ya later jesus loves you
