letter September 8


Hey how is everyone?
It’s another e mail from the land of the tulips haven’t seen any but that’s what I have heard. haha ya there are so many flowers but no tulips hear in Heerenveen. Well let’s start by answering some questions that you have. No I haven’t got my new bike seat yet but we are on plan to do it today. Actually we are trying to buy everything for a whole transfer today it will be interesting. haha ok well anyway. I don’t get to go to the temple for a while, but boy do I need it, it is so bad out here, just the billboards and signs, I have never sang so many hymns in my life. haha as far as elder Kessler. I still have him and he is as awesome as ever. But this is his last transfer before he goes home so I will have a new comp next transfer. (overplatsing). 
I cant seem to find the recipes I have only the brownie one. if you could send me some, like gnocchi and others that I could cook that would be great, sandwiches are getting a little old, hahah ok well as for the people we are teaching, it has been really interesting, you see we have received 2 golden referrals, one from a woman inSsteenwijk who has read the book of Mormon and wants to get baptized, we haven’t even met her or talked to her so we will see what happens with that. The other verwijzing (referral) was a woman with 8 children and she went on the church website and requested missionaries to come and teach her, so this is amazing! We teach her on Wed. as for Zomerette, she tells us still that she feels so good when we come buy, the only problem is that she can’t progress unless she comes to church, and her children do not want to go so she can’t leave them at home. It is really difficult.
As for pictures they are being developed now so I should be able to send them this week or next depending on how today goes. There is a conference where a 70 is coming to speak to us. It is really awesome. 
Just a side note about where I am. The clouds here are amazing. What you need to do is watch the Grinch and look at those clouds. That is how it here about every day. It is so beautiful.
I love you all so much 
love Elder Dalpias
