What a long week. I had a ingrown toe nail and a tooth ache in the same week. I went to the dentist and found out I need a root canal.
Transfers are Wednesday and I am getting a new missionary to train.... it will be fun. I am loving the ward and the area it is really cool!
I am serving as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the South Carolina Columbia Mission from 11-17-2010 to 11-17-2012. This blog will follow me on my mission in South Carolina. Check back often to follow the account of my activities through letters, photos, and comments from family and friends.

This is me in the great city of Myrtle Beach. We had a baptism on the 17th and hopefully another one on the 24th. There are lots of fun things to do here. It is a lot like Utah. I love it!
The picture of me in the ugly sweater with my pant leg rolled up is where I wrecked on my bike. You really can't tell but I tried to jump a river on my bike and didn't make it.
It was a fun week and there are lots of baptisms coming up in my district. The sister missionaries have two baptisms this week and the Spanish elders have one. Then on October 8th we have 17 people scheduled to be baptized. That will break a record if we baptize that many in one weekend. It will be sweet!

I love it here in Myrtle Beach!!!! We have a baptism this Saturday and then two the following week. Being a missionary is the greatest.
Last week Dane sent a letter home to everyone. It was great to get a letter we could sit down and read. He said, "Today we were getting food and stuff at Wal-mart when a member visiting from North Carolina came up and handed us $100 dollar gift card to Wal-mart!!! We were all really low on money because it was the end of the month and were trying to get stuff that was super cheap and nasty! But it was truly a blessing that he was there when we needed it the very most. I know it is a blessing from the Lord! This church is true!!! Don't ever forget it!"
One of our favorite parts of a letter we recently received said....Dad and Mom, I GET IT!!!!!! These are the greatest words a parent could hear from a missionary...the lord truly has blessed us all!
