Finally a letter 4/6/12
Dear family, Well fam it has been along time since I've written. I'm sorry but I'm trying to do better. There has been a lot going on lately. Normally I'm not this busy but the District seems to be doing great. I've been going and giving interviews and then attending the baptisms as well. The sisters had 2 baptisms in the last week so they are on fire. Then this past week I went down to Oak Ridge on an exchange with our Zone Leaders. I went with Elder Bottom. He is a way cool kid. We've gotten to know each other pretty well and became pretty good friends. Well on our exchange we had a very cool spiritual experience. It just so happens that we ran into a spanish family. It's a little ironic because it's not a spanish area and we can't find spanish people in our area. His name was Jose. We got to talking and he broke into conversation about his wife. She has had 3 strokes ad her whole right side does not work. She is maybe about 30 to 35 years old. Well I offered her a blessing and she wanted one. She can not speak or do much but she can read so after I gave her a blessing I felt the urge to give her a promise about the Book of Mormon and told her if she read with real intent she would be able to speak again. The spirit was so strong it was great. My spanish had no flaws because the spirit was directing the whole time. The best part about the whole thing was Elder Bottom does not speak spanish but he understood everything. I'm grateful for the tender mercies that happen so often. We are hoping to check on her in a couple of weeks. Well yesterday was P-day and we had a blast. Well we woke up at 6:00 and went and worked out over at the Zone Leaders. Bolt and I jumped rope for 45 minutes. It was a good workout. Well for the rest of the day we went to the rec center and played ultimate frisby. I threw my arm out of socket again and right now it hurts bad. I had a hard time sleeping because I would roll on it and it would wake me up. Well thanks for all you do. I love y'all so much so stay safe and take care. Love Elder Robison
