Elder Braidon Sanders

Dear mom and dad,
We are finally all better, and going back to work, I am really struggling though.The kid we had set for baptism isnt getting baptized anymore, a few years ago he had a drowning accident and now has a couple problems from it but is a really smart kid, he just doesnt want to let anyone down. He knows its true, and knows Joseph smith is a prophet, but a minister friend of his convinced him not to be mormon, no real reason, but thats not why Im struggling, Im struggling because he got out of school for easter break and we saw him at a members house on saturday, and come to find out he hadnt eaten since thurs. i know the gospel will bless his life so much, but i cant help him, as a missionary there is only so much i can do...and its killing me.....i have really been wrestling with the lord for help this week.....we had a great session in church yesterday, i have really learned to appreciate the atonement, i never truly understood before......other than that i am doing fine, i need to send the card back soon i keep forgetting.......oh ya my belt is destroyed,I guess its not made to be worn like i wear it.....oh and fun story of the week, we were helping a member move a deep freeze out of a truck and one of our investigators, Jake he is my size but buff, ya he jumped in to the truck and his foot clipped me in the high notes, elder smith said he could here the hit from the front of the truck ( we were in back) said he heard a Thud and looks over and saw me on all fours.....needles to say my stomach and gut have been hurting for the past few days so ........ya other than that not much more to report.
love you guys,
miss ya
