May 5

Dear Family and Friends,
Sorry about the abrupt nature of my last email. We were in a rush to get a lot of things done. Because i am in Herriman we are the farthest zone from the mission office. It takes us around 25 minutes to get there and we have to go every Monday. And Because we are zone leaders we have to move everyone's stuff around get the mail and just do a lot of random service for the members of our zone. Today we have a little more time. Not as many things to do but we stiull have to help 2 sisters change apartments. So that is going to take up some time. 
So i love this area that i serve in. We have soo many potentials its just hard tying all of them down and getting them to meet with us. We picked up 3 inv in the last 2 weeks which is really good. and it looks like we should pick a up a few more soon. 
Soo here in the Herriman zone we have another name that we use. we call everyone Herriman fire bones because we have fire in our bones like it talks about in jeremiah 16. its kinda funny but elder foster and i have really run with it to help motivate and get everyone excited about the work. Like we made an Acronym for F.I.R.E. and it was pretty funny but we were able to bend it so that it would actually be what we needed it to be. We are also planning on getting t shirts for the zone... what ever. its what the zone wanted.
OUr land lady is really cool. she bujys all of our groceries and will make us food on any day that we need it. and she doesnt let us to our dishes. i got in trouble when i was doing my dishes. And i think i told you about my kind size bed! oh my goodness it is the best sleep ive ever gotten. 
This month Elder Foster and i also had to make the training plan for our zone! this is what all the district mtgs and the commitments this month are based off of. it took us a long time discussing and asking the lord before we made something we liked. As well as the mission training plan we taught some doctrine about the atonement in our Zone training meeting. We are really focusing on the atonement as a mission and i love it. Our president understand soo much. he can answer all my questions. its just whether or not he will answer them. haha. 
So i guess i will call next week on mothers day. soo  we decided we will call at 7.  so i think thats 6 your time. soo expect it then. 
Also HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM! i know its late but hey i remembered. that's better than most years.
Love Elder Salmon
