Mom, don't worry about a thing......
Mom don´t worry about a thing, because every little thing, is going to be alright!
Hey everybody!
It has been an incredible few months hasn´t been? The Lord is really testing our family, but don´t worry, I will be home in a few months to help everyone out.
How come everyone looks so sad in the pictures? Isn´t anyone happy back home, looking on the bright side? I sure hope Scout Camp helps dad out to relax a little bit, he looks the most stressed in all the pictures.
So let me see here, what has been going on... Today I played soccer again with my companion and other people from our ward. And once again I got my butt whooped.
Last Saturday we planned a really cool activity. We divided the ward into three groups, and we are doing a contest until the end of the year. Once a month we unite the three groups and have competitions between them. Like the last time, we played ´´the blind feeding the blind´´. Each group chose two players, which were then blindfolded and given a banana to feed the other. The team who fed the other the fastest won. We also did a lot of other little contests. Our main focus for all of this is get the ward excited about missionary work, and get them to invite their friends to this activity and to church. Everyone loved it, it was awesome.
The world cup has been going on lately, and whenever there is a game from Brasil we have to stay at home. We aren´t allowed in the streets...it´s kind of dangerous.... I am excited because Brasil has been doing well, but at the same time it has been interfering with our work. This Friday there is another game, and we will have to stay at home. The world cup is coming to a close anyways. It should be done here in a couple of weeks.
I have been working so hard here in my area, I have been trying my best to make all of you proud of me. Every night I get home, plan, then fall on my bed, dead. The mission work is so great, I wish that all you could be out here with me serving as my companions.
This is the true church of Christ. Christ lives, He hears and answers our prayers. I love our Savior so much, He knows us, loves us, and wants the best for us. The best for us, is not always the best thing that we think that it is.
I love you all! Don´t worry I am still praying for you all!!!!
Love,

1 Elder Kenning, my son, blessed are you because of your faith in my work.
2 Behold, you have had many afflictions because of your family; nevertheless, I will bless you and your afamily, yea, your little ones; and the day cometh that they will believe and know the truth and be one with you in my church.
3 Lift up your heart and rejoice, for the hour of your mission is come; and your tongue shall be loosed, and you shall declare aglad tidings of great joy unto this generation.
4 You shall adeclare the things which have been revealed to my servant, Joseph Smith, Jun. You shall begin to preach from this time forth, yea, to reap in the field which is bwhite already to be burned.
5 Therefore, athrust in your sickle with all your soul, and your sins are bforgiven you, and you shall be laden with csheaves upon your back, for the dlaborer is worthy of his hire. Wherefore, your family shall live.
6 Behold, verily I say unto you, go from them only for a little atime, and declare my word, and I will prepare a place for them.
7 Yea, I will aopen the hearts of the people, and they will receive you. And I will establish a church by your hand;
8 And you shall astrengthen them and prepare them against the time when they shall be gathered.
9 Be apatient in bafflictions, crevile not against those that revile. Govern your dhouse in meekness, and be esteadfast.
10 Behold, I say unto you that you shall be a physician unto the church, but not unto the world, for they will not receive you.
11 Go your way whithersoever I will, and it shall be given you by the aComforter what you shall do and whither you shall go.
12 aPray always, lest you enter into btemptation and lose your creward.
13 Be afaithful unto the bend, and lo, I am cwith you. These words are not of man nor of men, but of me, even Jesus Christ, your Redeemer, by the dwill of the Father. Amen.
