Hello Mom and Dad!

How's it going? Long time no see, quite literally, but how's it been back in Arizona? I got your package with the fortune cookies, chopsticks, socks, chocolates, that super awesome looking tie, and other letters and goodies. Thank you so much for those! I have been slacking when it came to writing paper letters so I'll try and get back into the groove of things.

Everything in the mission field has been an adventure, as usual, and somehow I've been in the mission field for already 2 months, like where the heack did time go like COME BACK. Seriously though the work here has been hard but I never expected it to be easy and so far as much as I work there are blessings around every corner, even if its not on that day. Putting the best foot forward and continuing forward in faith is action in itself and just keeping forward helps out a lot. Also being able to have the thought that maybe I planted a seed in the hearts of others is enough to keep me going. The mission work out here is pretty awesome to be completely honest. Even though at times I'd rather be doing other things I keep my mind to the work and having a companion right besides me HELPS ME SO MUCH!

But good news I do indeed have pictures for you guys... Coming up in real soon!​

Love you all so much! (Making emails short because time is also short but I can respond in the time I have!!)

From,
Elder Brimhall



- Yeah its supposedly supposed to get cooler starting tomorrow so that jacket will come in handy soon. The Ward Halloween party was pretty awesome, lots of people dressed up and some less active family we have been visiting came and had a really good time so thats super awesome!

Did You Think to Pray? I actually took pictures this week. And for some odd reason this computer is denying me the right to access those photos... Hold back the pitchforks for now, I'll fix the problem sometime soon. But besides from that one. The title comes from a praying mantis I saw while knocking on doors. I went to go ring a doorbell and there is this giant praying mantis guarding the bell. I ended up not wanting to fight the thing and knocked on the door. Something our mission does every transfer (which is a six week period of time kept by missionaries), we have this thing called a zone conference. And all the missionaries here in the desert got together. Which is always a fun experience being out for little over 13 months now seeing people I've grown to meet and love during my time here and catching up with them. But the whole reason we got together was to learn and grow in our service out here. And something that stuck out to me was learning to set goals, but mo...

Dear Elder Brimhall, Hey bud! Hope you're doing a bit better than last week. Last weeks email was hard to read...but I'm also grateful that you're sharing what you're feeling. I hope you can continue to be that open and honest with us. Please don't stop writing. I don't think I could handle that. We got to talk to President Taylor again on Friday night. He said that he had just talked to you and you seemed to be doing a bit better. He said that counseling seemed to be helping some too. Do you feel like your counselor is a good fit with you? Bryson is going to counseling weekly too and I've noticed he seems to be doing quite a bit better. We went to dinner at Karli's house tonight. Garrett turned 12 last week and received the Aaronic priesthood today. Crazy to believe that Grant is next for that. We had 3 different kinds of soups, homemade rolls, and then Karli had made a double chocolate layer cake with crumbled up Heath candy bar on top. Pre...

I heard about that from another email and all those posts on Facebook about it. Tell her I send her my best wishes and prayers for them. Be safe on the way there! That was fun to hear about Grant though, he'll become a superstar the more he works at it, and that basketball court will help out, tell him when I get back I'll ball with him!  Concerning that jacket, just something more casual, the only one I have is that big one from the beginning so its can get warm. Just something for the preparation days or just lounging around at night. Probably should have but more information on that request, my bad! You can have Bryson pick something out, I'll make sure to email him today and maybe he'll do the same. We had some really cool things happen this week though. We started teaching this older couple, Ralph and Terry, and they are such great people. Ralph is currently in a wheelchair because he lost a foot, and I swear the jokes he cracks are phenomenal. This is my f...
