The Cowboy has arrived in Texas

Hello family 

Texas is nice it’s been a little chilly here but nothing like home. I am in a big town called Coppell TX. It is not my ideal place to be but it is OK  I'm on a bike which also isn't fun but I'll manage. I do however have an awesome companion; he is from Cedar City, Utah. His name is Elder Rowland. 

Coppell is a very rich area all the people here drive fancy cars and have swimming pools, so please pray for some investigators for us to teach. For some reason some people with money don't think they need the Savior in their life, but the fact of it is, everyone needs the Savior in their life. Hope everything is going great at home. I have a deeper love for my Savior now I have drawn much closer to him.

I bet it was tough saying goodbye to Christina I know it was tough for me and I have been thinking about her a lot. Tell her she will be a great missionary and the work is so much... the fields are white and ready to harvest.

It feels so good today to put on my wranglers and feel a little at home. It is hard here but I know this is where I need to be and I am growing so much. I know the Lord put me in this area for a reason and I am striving every day to find that reason. I want you all to know that I know this church is true and that it was restored to the earth through Joseph Smith this is Christ's church established in this last dispensation and the work of the Lord must go on. I love you all and tell grandma I love her too I cherish the memories I had with her and hope to make many more when I get back. I love you all so much. let er buck
