Tell mom thanks for the email. Its cool you were able to teach Sam how to dance with girls, now help him learn to talk with them. That will be tough.

This transfer is going to be lots more busy. Like i told Sam, Elder Pierce was raised in Mexico City and moved to Houston Texas in a little town named Humble. He can speak Spanish. We don't teach in Spanish because of the Spanish missionaries and for the Korean investigators we are finding Korean fellowshippers.

There are not active members here! And i am finding that the main reason they don't go to church is that they do NOT read the Book of Mormon. This is a serious matter. Read it with the family Daily!! And STUDY it together. That means asking questions. That means discussions. You may need to think of a way to make it fun for everyone. You a smart man, you can think of something. I don't care how it happens, it just needs to happen. It will bless our family, we will be united, we will become one with the lord, one in purpose.

I have a testimony about reading the scriptures daily. Especially the Book of Mormon. It is the basis of every testimony we have of the church. Joseph Smith, Jesus Christ, the truthfulness of the church, the gospel of Jesus Christ, the blessings of keeping the commandments are all based on that book. It brings the spirit EVERY time it is read.

Thank you,

Elder William C. Urban
