i am excited to do the lords work. i cant wait to get out in the field but the ctm is helping alot. its hard to focus 24/7 on one thing but I'm doing my best. i heard a quote from the area 70 in brasil, it goes like this "pray as if everything depends on the lord, and then work as if everything depends on you" i believe that if i do this i will be just fine. i know this church is true, i know that joesph smith was a prophet of God and he restored the Gospel of Jesus Christ back to the earth, i know that Christ laid down his life for us and through him we can return back to our father. i have a testimony of the prophet Thomas s monson, i know he speaks directly with God. i am so grateful to be serving, i feel like i dont deserve to be a part of this great work, but the Lord has called me and i know i can do it, or i should say the Lord can do it through me. i am thankful for all the support of family and friends, i know i couldn't do it without that, it sounds wierd to say but i have a testimony of the power of satan, he works so hard on missionaries its unreal. he knows that we are about to bring many people to the Gospel and he is working so hard to not let that happen. this truly is hard work but i know its going to pay off. im really excited.

Love Elder Fletcher

P.S. if you could send that blessing you gave me like a month before my mission and put it on an email that would be great.

Tchau!
