Sorry family,
Sorry i didn't write yall a letter this last week. I needed to because of the wonderful letter i had recieved for my birthday. I only wish i could've been there to here it all but it still really touched me. However as you all must know I was packing on Pday so that's why i really didn't have much time.
My New area is called Clermont where i am companions with Elder Mansfield from Lehi Utah. Elder Mansfield comes from a family of 13 so we can relate quite a bit. I really enjoy Elder Mansfield and we really get a long. It makes me more excited for Christmas to have elders who'll be fun to be with. As for Clermont though it's the most hilly area in our mission so my legs have been real sore the last couple of days and i've been building up my stamina and leg stregnth. By the time i leave here my thighs will be cut. But i told my president that he needed to send me here as my last area so i could get in shape right before i came home.
I've been having some good succes here with Elder Mansfield and we are excited to work hard. We set a baptismal date yesterday with a kid named Eddie Moore. We were both pumped and that day just did a lot of challenging and testifing. We also have a kid in our ward who's been living with some members and has been taught everything. We just found out last week from bishop that he wants to be baptized so that makes us even more happy.
The Ward here is so great and they are so genuine. None of the members here are fake and they all like to tell you exactly what they're thinking. Really i can appreciate that especially when we have investigators who give us retarted excuses all day long.
Well that's pretty much it for the life of elder judd, and sorry for not writing it totally feels like i'm just way out of the loop.
Love Elder Judd
