[[NOTE: The mission's next transfer date is December 9th. If you're planning on mailing him something, you're probably safer sending it to the main mission address. We'll post it here soon.]]

Hey Mom and Dad and Jill and Jeremy and Sean and Jax and Aunt Barbie, and everyone else who didnt write me a letter.

Hey Ya'll thank you so much for all the letters have yall seen Ian lately i heard he was going somewhere in new york I had never heard of it before honestly. So this week has been way fast we are workin hard and are having fun i think that those 2 go hand in hand hard work and happiness thats somethin for all yall future missionaries out there its really true when you have the spirit it feels so right, you just want more of it. Sean i am so excited dude awe i get the chills thinkin about your call i hope you go to somewhere where there are yarn heads like yourself haha that way you wonr feel so awkward. well i am gonna sen my mom a Memory card with pictures and stuff on it so ya'll can see what i've beeen doing for about 3 months now. Dad i loved your letter its so good to hear about Colton and Jordon that is so good that they are preparing and jordon gonedoes eveyone think its weird?? I was just thinking about going and getting him and how excited i'd be and everything it is gonna be so tight but that is a long ways a way. so back to texas ha well i dont know if i told ya'll about When i gave my first Blessing...so i'll tell ya just in case. Well it was about 2 or 3 weeks in the field and we (me Elder Goldsmith and elder Steffler and Elder McBride) went to Scott and White, a big ole Hospital in temple and we waited there for about 2and a half hours cause our bishop asked us to go give a blessing to someone. So we went and we couldnt go in cause the babies parents weren't there it was so Long so we left and then our bishop said to go back cause we could do it now so we went back but we waited for another hour and then we got in cause her grandparents were there. So we went in adn we talked to the Mom and aunt and asked what happened and theBabues Father had shaken her and it was so weird cause she just sat there spread eagle and she didnt move it ws a sad sight and then we gave her a blessing and i felt the Spirit so strong in there it was so cool and that just made my testimony ofpreisthood power grow exponencially somethin like that its a big word the i cant spell ha sorry i am not that smart. So we called the next week and they were out of the Hospital and she was Better. 

Well Mom i think that is a good experiance dont you? Well i think you could send brooke Flowers and say in the note From your best friend. It doesnt matter what kind of Flowers either. That would be a good idea thatnk you sobmuch for that. Dad me and elder goldsberry love the EMv and thanks for the update on everything i have to send Brett and chris letters that are in cool shirts too i didnt know they came over ha so i will have to do that. Tell Tammy and Jared if you see them that A mission is the best thing that Jordon could ever do. Jill & Jeremy thanks for te Emails and i dont know about the stamps but i bought some too i'lllook through all the letters yall sent me and i will find them or not find them either way its a good thing i have all the letters everyone sent me organized so it wont be too hard. Also our apartment's Carpets got Cleaned and it looks really good i love it i am a big fan of Clean ha thknas for that mom itsa blessing. Sean i am so stoked for you and ian and chris that is crazy i cantwait to here were all yall are going. Well thats all i think well actually We have a baptism this week...His name i shawn Davis he is cool kid i like his family a lot they are the best ward missionaries every ha well now thats all i think. yeah thats all wait i lied a funny story. We are teaching a lady and her name is Claudia and she is a way cool lady and we were helping her move and a long story short se told me i was a bad A yeah i laughd and agreed ha my soul delighteth in truth ha that was nephi talking there okay now i have to get off i am almost out of time okay well love you all bye bye

Email from a ward member and Pictures!!!

The Walker Family,

It was our pleasure to have your son in our house for dinner tonight. As a tradition, each time we have the missionaries for dinner, we take a picture of them with our three little boys and send it to their families. It's been a great tradition and a lot of fun to see what "the boys" come up with for the picture. I've attached two of them that we took tonight.

I also wanted to thank you for sharing Elder Walker with us here in Belton. I know he hasn't been out long, but I can see an excitement and energy in his eyes as he serves. It's comforting, as a mother of three boys, to know that there are great missionaries here to be an example to them. Elder Walker shared with us that he is the youngest of 5 and has 4 older sisters. I'm sure that's why he is as fun-loving as he is! Thank you, and I hope you enjoy the pictures.

Take care,
Briana Mann
Belton, TX

Hey Family
I am doing great just enjoying the nice warm weather down here its really weird that there isnt any snow down here I am kind of upset really I kinda miss it its too hot for me and its ony like 70-80 degrees...Mom you can send me a letter the same way u you used to just its hard to know what letters have been read and the ones i havent read yet so if you can figure out how to make it look they havent been read yet go for it that would be fine. So did you go see Tammy i think she will definitly need some help just stop by to see how she is doing if you would for me that would be way sweet. Did you guys know that jordon didnt go to Brazil yet he is at the Provo MTC for a while i guess ha just a little fun fact. Well as of now we have another Baptism Date with a kid named shawn Davis and he is a way vcool kid he is 22 but looks loke he is 17ish maybe kinda like me but i will send another memory card home for sure...by the way the stuff on my memory card that you guys sent me i cant read any of it so you should send it to me again this Memory card i saw some of the pictures that jen out on there cause i took it to walmart to print off another picture but that was all. So just try again i dont know why it didnt work jill and Jeremy are smart tey can figure it out. The frst Baptism that i mentioned tho was back in octber on the 18th and it was a Lady nad Marissa Curry her husband was a less active and now his whole family is in the church and going strong...But a surprise that we had was anther girl in our ward who wasnt a member got baptized on the 27th of october so its just a cool thing to be out here. Thats weird that brooke came up did she go to jordons farewell?? Mom i can multi task i can think about two things at the same time so dont worry. Me and elder Goldsberry are taring it up down here. we are having fun too its great. I'm excited for thanksgiving we have it on p-day so its even better Jeremy i cant believe you ate so much thats hilarious i love food so that would be great if that happened to me haha. Speaking of food i weighed myself the other day and it said 158lbs i didnt believe it and i have high blood pressure ha weird right? i'm getting really old really fast. I cant believe i am almost 20 years old that is so weird. also i have to buy a bike so if ya'll could maybe out 200 more dollars in my account that would be great so i can get a bike to last me my whole mission. well i dont now what else to talk about so thats all i'm gonna say. Except to email this to jordon whose email is umm jrostermiller@myldsmail.net but wait till next week sometime to do cause he probably hasnt set one up yet well thanks guys so much for all you do.
Love ya'll
Elder Walker

Playing Basketball because i love it an d miss it ahh yeah i love Basketball... I love you guys more but i still love basketball. We have some really cool investigators tho i love em all. Man i thought that Sugar girls would take state again. its kind of just expected right? Well i hope Colton has fun in St george and at the utah game it should be a good one. Tell him that i expect at least one more letter before he leaves on his mission.
