My foot is vibrating!

(Elder Slade)
To the best friends and family a person could hope for,
Not much happened this week. Same old text, calls, and sharing messages with members. It gets a little repetitive sometime. The title comes from a texting session where my foot was falling asleep, and I said, "My foot is vibrating!" Then I repeatedly tried to hit it against the coach to get it to stop. It didn't work. But one thing we've been working on more and more is Facebook proselyting. I'm not too much a fan of it, but the variety makes it enjoyable. We have made music videos, teaching videos and all other assortments of social media propaganda. Haha, just kidding, I wouldn't call it propaganda. But if you have time, you should check out our page, you'll probably see me in some videos! It's called Church of Jesus Christ In Rexburg.
Today, our new district and another district went to the sand dunes in St. Anthony.  It was super fun! It was sandtastic! We spent the time running and jumping off of the dunes as far as we could go. We also did some front flips off of the dunes. Suffice it to say, sand got everywhere.
One of the videos for Facebook we've been working on is about the Book of Mormon. What's amazing about the Book of Mormon is that it can answer all of life's questions. It teaches us. Why we are here, and where we are going. It teaches us the purpose of families, and how to strengthen them. It teaches us how to receive forgiveness, and how to forgive. It teaches us how to love, and that we are loved. It teaches us how to find peace, happiness, comfort, strength, patience, and faith. But above all else, it teaches of Jesus Christ, and that He lived died and was resurrected for us. If you would want to learn more about any of those things, I invite you to read the Book of Mormon. I promise you in the name of Jesus Christ that if you do so with an open mind, you will find those things.
Interesting fact, Idaho grows roughly 1/3 of the U.S. fall potato crop. Given that the average American eats 140 lbs of potato per year (though the internet has been wrong before), then that's a lot of potatoes. Anyways, love yall!
