God works in mysterious ways.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Ok, this week was kinda slow because of turkey day and the BYU-Utah game. We 
didn't have many lessons because a whole bunch of our investigators were out of 
town, and the rest really didn't want to talk to us anyway. We did find 3 new 
investigators this week which was a big bonus for us. All three are 8 years old, 
and they should be baptized in a couple months at least.

Our district decided to spice things up on Thanksgiving by having a pie eating 
contest throughout the whole day. We had two dinners (bleh) and then we ate as 
much pie as possible on top of that whenever we were offered any (BLAH!!). Our 
companionship hit 21 pieces by the end of the day. I will never eat another 
piece of pumpkin or key lime pie ever again. I wanted to die. 

On a more spiritual note, We were going by one of our referrals on Saturday, and 
they weren't home, but when we got there a guy drove by and told us to go to his 
friends house next door. We went by and talked to him for a little bit and he 
said he would be interested in taking the missionary lessons. It was really cool 
to see that even though we couldn't get a hold of the person we came for, someone 
else was put in our path. God works in mysterious ways. We as a companionship 
are working on our faith to find and teach, and we are praying each day for our 
investigators.

I'm enjoying every minute of my mission (besides the pie). I miss you all and I 
hope to hear from you soon.

With Love,
Elder Wright
