Family,
Good Morning everyone. It’s
been a great eventful week, and my first week serving as District Leader has
shown how much extra work a calling can be. But it’s been a
blessing thus far to be responsible for the accountancy of other
missionaries, and to be a part of their lives even more. Hope everything is
well with you all back home, The
assistant to the President and I were speaking last Thursday and he mentioned
that he had recognized me but couldn't tell where from, he then told me he was
from Riverton Utah. So curious, I asked if he knew the Pembertons,
astonishingly he does know them. All of them by name! He
lived across the street from the Pembertons old house and his grandparents
lived down the street from the Pembertons grandparents house in the boonies, we
both shared experiences and memories about having light saber battles and
playing on the trees, we very likely have crossed sabers before. His name
is Elder Alexander Neilson.

Anyway, love you all. I miss
you as usual. Have a great week
Elder Merrill
p.s. send the photo and the story to
Debbie. She will know him. Small world!
