Hi how is everyone?! College Station is so great I'm just loving every minute of it! It's so hott!!! Seriously this is one of the hottest summers they've ever had; they said it's like August right now...and of course it had to be the summer I'm here! But nonetheless we're enjoying it and really it just makes you work harder finding investigators and appointments because then you aren't out in the heat! We went on a couple splits this past week and that was fun. We taught Pai Shan about temple work and she had a ton of questions about that so that was really good! and we taught Nazhang the Restoration again. She's understanding us more now and so we decided it'd be good to go over the restoration and understand the importance of that. But yeah and both Nazhang and Paishan came to a baptism last night and Pai shan had a ton of question about that let me tell you! At first she was so confused when Jonathan went under water! She was just looking around at everyone wondering why they didn't all think it was as weird as she did! But she wanted to know if she could choose anyone to baptize her and I explained about teh priesthood and I thought she understood but then she asked If I could haha so apparently she didn't...but by the end she did and so we're going to set a date with her when we meet with her tomorrow night. We saw a less active lady at church last Sunday and she is very very inactive and teh only reason we knew what she looked like is because before I came in Sis Lieber and Cook went and saw her. But anyways so we wanted to visit her this saturday and make sure she was coming to church. so we went to her apt and she opened the door and let us in and she has 4 chihuahuas...cute right? Well if they were 4 porters it would be but these chihuahuas had to be part tigers or soemthing I'm serious they just wanted to tear us apart!!! Oh my I have never been so scared in my life!! and this one black one named Chico is like on steroids and it came at me and totally bit me!!! But I'm telling you it was the strangest thing because it didn't hurt at all and he didn't break skin so I know Heavenly Father was protecting me! I just didn't know what to do cause I'm like okay this is a less active I'm not gonna kick her dog I actually want her to come back to church not hate the church! So anyways after that whole dramatic episode we sat down and she's like "I was wondering where I could get a book of mormon, like the one with teh bible and the book of mormon together. Oh and I need to get a subscription the the Ensign where can I do that?" We were just blown away!! We don't know what happened to ehr but she is just ready for the church back in her life! So we're meeting with her again this thursday but tehre's no way I'm going back to her apt so we are meeting at the Cluff's cause Bro. Cluff is her home teacher! So that was the greatest story of the week! One downer was that we were suppose to meet with JC after church yesterday and he came to church and everything and then after church he was liek I need to go to the bathroom so we waited for awhile and he never came back! He totally stood us up!! and he didn't call us back! So that was super devastating but as hard as it is, you have to train yourself to realize they aren't rejecting you, they are rejecting your message and we can't force them to accept it we can only bring the spirit into the conversation and teach what we know to be true. then it's their choice to accept or reject the spirit. Anyways we taught 30 lessons this week so it's our record so far! It's insane cause we don't even feel like we're working like super hard or anything, which is good cause the numbers are working for us and we aren't working for the numbers. Other then that everything else is just awesome!! Hope everyone has a great 4th of July! We are spending it with Yuki and Cynthia...since they don't care to much about it and we just love them! Oh and we just went to the temple thursday so that was an amazing experience...gets better every time! and we have transfers is a couple days...on the 15th! I think I'm staying though since I'm in the middle of my breathing tests...which is good I think I just want to have tests my whole mission! haha not really but I love College Station it's the best place to be! K I have to go but I love you all and miss you so much!

big week
Soooo crazy it's already Monday again! This past week went really well and we had the oppurtunity to meet many people and see lives change as they embrace the gospel a little more at a time. There was one investigator they had about a month before I got here so like 3 months ago, he was super eager to learn and just had that real desire to know the truth and then his wife just did not want to learn anything more and was hostile towards any of it and it caused arguments between him and her and then he called the sisters and told them the situation and asked what he should do like if he should sneak out and learn more or what and I guess Sister Cook got scared by that cause she said if you come to church we know you want to learn more. well he never went to church so they dropped him and wouldn't stop by and that was that. But Sis Lieber always thought about him and finally after a dinenr appointment she was like we need to call JC and the next day she called him and it happened to be his birthday and she was the only one to call him on his birthday and he thought that's why she called. But anyways he still had so many questions and wanted to learn more and the whole thing a couple months before was a big misunderstanding because he felt like since his family wasn't interested they were like okay nevermind this church is for families so we are not going to teach you anymore and the sisters just didn't want to cause marital problems. Nevertheless though we met with him Saturday Night and the Elders taught with us and it was an awesome lesson and he was sooo scared to come to church I think because he felt intimidated by lots of people and he didn't know what his wife would say but he promised he'd come and JC's promises are sure promises. So he came and had a ton of questions is Gospel doctrine and really liked Elder's Quorum and just lvoed church and we are meeting with him Tuesday Night! So yeah it's really awesome and I have just never seen someone so confused and just wants to know the truth and I have no doubt the Heavenly Father will help him gain that testimony he needs to take the next steps in his life towards returning to him. That was just one great story from the week, there was a ton but I don't have time to tell all of them nor do you want to read a novel I'm sure. Although we played Tennis with Yuanfa and he brought his 2 friends and one came and played tennis while sis lieber and yuanfa and his other friend played bball and Hong and I got talking and he's atheist and he believes in all of the Science stuff and that the earth just magically appeared or something I'm not sure but I asked him what he thought happened to us when we died and he said well that's it. We are like trees...we grow up live for a while and then die. We talked for an hour and I taught him parts of the restoration and the plan of salvation and I said Hong I know that there is a God and he is your Father. And he does love you, and he'll tell you that if you will pray. The conversation ended with him saying he would try to pray and the next night I gave him a Book of Mormon. He wasn't home so I gave it to Yuanfa cause they are roommates and we had a lesson with Yuanfa and Yuanfa said that guy doesn't believe in God!! I said I know but he deserves to know about god and the Book Of Mormon will enlighten his mind and increase his understanding so give it to him and invite him to church and he was soo scared to invite him to church it was so cute! But we had just taught him about Faith vs. Fear so we told him just have faith we don't want to see fear in your eyes! So anyways on sunday after sacrament meeting he came up to me and said Sister Davis I invited Hong to Church! I said yeah what did he say? and then he said that Hong said he didn't want to go to church but he would try to read the book of mormon. Yuanfa was so excited about his missionary moment I loved it! And it was just another seed planted which in due time will start to swell and bloom. Yuanfa is going to convert all of China before the church even opens up over there! Seriously he's awesome! Okay I have to stop writing but I am going to try and attach pictures! Love you all!!

Listen to what the spirit tells you!
Heyyy! So loved your emails thanks a bunch for taking the time to write me it means the world and makes my whole week run smooth! This week was...amazing! Best week yet! We were able to teach 29 lessons this week and we have 5 new investigators just from this week! 4 of them are chinese...I'm telling you they are just the most humble those Chinese people. On Monday night we played tennis with Yuanfa and that's always fun cause he's just a good ol time and we were able to meet a couple from China and teach a lesson, well Sis Lieber was cause we were playing tennis, but teh husband wants to know more but he doesn't speak English very well and his wife likes her bible church so we gave him a pamphlet of the plan of salvation and put our number on it. We were able to go to a leadership meeting on Wednesday and the missionary department of the church was tehre and they taught us a ton! Seriously I've never learned so much in 7 hours of learning...except the MTC probably but yeah so that helped us a lot throughout the week to work on our door approaches. On Thursday we contacted a potential and she wasn't home so we just tracted her building. Usually we won't but this time I really felt like we should and on the last door we knocked on, this girl in her early 20's answered and we shared our message and asked her if she would like to learn mroe and she said yes and usually we'd set up a time but we didn't have much going on for a couple hours so we just proceeded to teach her the restoration at the door it was so awesome and it's one of the first times I've really just not known exactly where to start and the spirit guided my conversation and told me exactly what to say and the lesson flowed so smooth and we gave her a copy of the book of mormon and asked her to read and gave her a part to read and she said she would and we are meeting with her tonight again. It was amazing and she has such a cute girl who is 3. their names are Nyesha and Naia. Yesterday we were going to go tract out in snook which is a ghetto small town about 30 minutes away and a girl we teach recent convert lessons to lives out there and we had an appoinment that night so we were going to go out early and tract but we just felt like we shouldn't but we didn't know what to do so we prayed and I felt like we should visit a sister who is a member that is a single mom and her one son that is at home doesn't come to church anymroe so the bishop has been having us go there on sundays to visit them and teach lessons, but we knew that her son left that day to go to his sisters for a few weeks so there was no point in going, but I still felt like we should stop by at least and see how she was and if she needed anything so we did and she invited us in. As we started talking, she teared up and expressed to us that she had a couple tests done and the results showed she has cervical cancer and she just found out last friday and now she's all alone for a couple weeks. We talked with her for about an hour and shared some scriptures that give us hope and comfort through challenging times and I think and pray that it helped her. But I know the Spirit guided us to her house and I'm so grateful I listened to the spirit because I know that as I do, it will in all ways direct my paths for good. Heavenly Father's plan is just remarkable and I know that he loves each of us and he is pleading with us to make the right choices in our lives and take the counsel that he gives us in abundance through church and conference and the scriptures and heed to all of the commandments and as we do he will bless us in temporal AND spiritual needs and there will be nothing we can't overcome with the help of the Lord. And quite frankly there's nothing we can overcome if we boost only in our own strength. Well I love you all so very much and think about you daily and pray for you continually!

Great Week!
Hi everyone! Sounds like you are all doing awesome, enjoying summer so that's great! Well this week was wonderful of course! Bobby was baptized!! Soooo awesome I'm so excited for him! He's amazing I know I write that every week but seriously he's incredible and him and his wife are a fabulous team together so I look forward to seeing great things from them! Philip, one of our other investigators, set his own baptismal date after Bobby's baptism!! Such a great night that's for sure....this gospel is incredible! And to see the Lord's hand guiding us to what we should teach and who we should find is a boost to me every day. We met a boy Bryan at a bus stop and taught him the restoration and gave him a book of mormon while he was waiting for the bus and then a couple days later at the same bus stop we talked to a lady named marion she was just the nicest lady and we talked to her about our message and the importance of prophets and the blessings we have seen from listening to the prophets in our lives in the last days. We went over to Guida's house the one with the gum problems and she let us in and we talked to her and her daughter for a second and she said she doesn't like all our rules and kept bringing up that she was told we don't believe in Christ or the Bible. There was no discussing it with her...I think she just didn't want to give up smoking and coffee which is fine I am sure in a year or two or 10 there will be missionaries knocking on her door and she will be ready. We ate at a member's house this week and his grandparents live in Lyman and he totally knows Haley's family...not like best friends but he knew who they were and everything. They are going there in a few weeks Hays so if you are out there look for the Bertoldo's. His grandparents last name is Brenton or something. We have a car now which is a huge blessing with my breathing. My breathing has been pretty severe I just wish it would go away or at least figure out what it is and what we need to do to solve the problem. We got 2 new chinese referrals last night so that will be exciting to start teaching them. Both girls going to A&M. One is Pai-Shan and she knows Yuanfa cause they are both getting their PHDs in Economics so that was great for her to have someone she knew at church yesterday. We have another investigator who is moving at the end of this month that was suppose to set a date to be baptized yesterday or today so we'll find out soon! Well that's about it for this week and we taught 26 lessons this week which is the best yet so we're progressing which is a good thing right?! I'm so sorry I don't have time to write yall individually I will try and write some letters this week! Love yall and thanks for everything you do, you are all in my prayers consistently.

Missionary work is awesome!
Hey Everyone! Don't have a lot of time today but Bobby is getting baptized on Saturday so that's totally exciting! He's so ready and his testimony is just blossoming it's inredible...definitely what you'd call a golden contact. So that's awesome and we met a few people this week tracting that we are going to be teaching this week! One is a muslim and he's like I would love to learn more, you see I'm muslim but we think mormons are the closest religion to us and he has to professors that were mormon that he just thought were the greatest...so we're teaching him on friday and then a guy we talked to as we were walking to walmart his name is Vernon. It's so cool how the spirit works. We just have to be willing to share the message and heavenly father will help soften the hearts of those we ask. It's so cool I love it! So President Hansen came here for a baptismal interview on Wednesday and Sister Liebr needed to talk to him so she called him not knowing he was going to be here and so we were able to go to the church and she talked to him and then afterwards he took me and her to lunch! He's so awesome...and then he told us we were staying together and getting a car and that was way before transfer calls. He's like I don't know why I keep doing this...no I'm doing this because the spirit prompted me to, and then he told us. So that was exciting...I love College Station and our ward members are so awesome and so helpful I love it! Mom Diane, Bobby's wife, the guy getting baptized Saturday, is trying to find you on facebook haha she wants to talk to you about adoption. So find ehr if she hasn't found you. Her name is Diane Franks in College Station. Everything else is great here loving every day. Elder Beck just got made AP so that's awesome I'm gonna miss that kid though he's way cool. And elder Olive is going to the Woodlands. Well I am gonna end this but I am going to try and attach some pictures! Love you all so much!
busy, busy all the day!
past week was a good week. We had some setbacks but every week is always a good week as a missionary! We had interviews on Tuesday and President Hansen said he wants me to stay here another transfer if possible so I can be here for Bobby's baptism so he's going to try and give us a car up here and we'll stay in College Station which is the ideal situation but if not then I will be moving to either Tomball or Montgomery. Transfer calls are saturday so we'll see. Well...Guida and Francis broke up with us. Well that's how it felt like when youre dating someone and they break up with you out of nowhere! I called her to make sure we could still come teach her the next day which was Saturday and she said no maam and I said okay well we'll have the cluff's come get you for church at 830 is that alright and she said no maam and I said uh...well when would you like us to come over again and she said when I call you. It was devastating! I think they were fed some anti stuff and they just don't know enough to stand firm against it so they think we're just crazy now! Oh after interviews President and Sister Hansen came and taught Yuanfa with us it was really great having them there and to talk with yuanfa about the whole communist party thing. Sis Lieber got sick for a couple days so I finished the Book of Mormon and almost done with the New Testament. When you are up at 630 and don't have anything to do for the next 15 hours, you get a lot done but I was going crazy... and that was for 2 days! So nina Lili's address is Lin.lili2@gmail.com and she really really wants to talk to you so email her!!! I gave her your email address too! Oh just a little FYI for yall Brittney Barney, Travis' wife just wrote me and Brittany and Jacob are getting married August 21st...so weird. And Katie Nalder is engaged to her missionary who got home in February. Zaundra is just a couple hours from me that's so weird and Dantz is doing an EFY session in San Antonio this summer. Let's see what else happened last week... the elders tracted our apt complex cause we can't since it's where we lived and they found a philipino family that we're gonna start teaching I think we're going over tonight. We need more referrals from the ward so hopefully they'll start coming. Hey mom my patriarchal blessing I think is in my file or else in my storage but I lost my copy I made for out here so could you make a copy and send it to me? I really miss reading it... Mom i'm so happy to hear you went to the temple how was it? Dad let me know what Sis Mccauley's last name is cause I might be in her parent's ward. Mom I haven't gotten the package but I'm sure it'll come soon. I oredered mesh garments and they just got here today...let me tell you that's where it's at! so breathable... Shaye your email was great thanks for taking the time to email me I love hearing from all of you! Keili we don't have any temple square missionaries I think Sis Zepeda was one but she's gone now. Randy thanks for writing it's great to know you still watch sister sister in your spare time and find joy in harming your 8 month old....no really your email was great thanks a lot! And happy birthday ya old fart!! seriously you're growing up it's insane! Well last week we only taught 16 lessons but that's actually pretty good since we only taught 5 of the 7 days. Oh Jacson I just love your face and miss you and can't believe your getting your braces off soon! Happy Gotcha day I hope you got everything you wanted and I hope everyone brought you a present that came to dinner cause that is your rule. Well I should probably leave you with a spiritual message and extend a commitment. We need to all be cosntantly striving to have our life's foundation built upon the teaching's of christ and we can do that by following all his commandments and all the prophet's counsel even in little things even if they seem minimally important. They give us commandments for our own protection and benefit and the blessings that come with these commandments only come as we obey them. I think D&C 130:20-21 tells us that. So I challend you all to read helamen5:12 and decide what you can do better to have a more solid foundation so when all those storms come, we will stand strong and not be destructed. After that we can read Mosiah 2:41...I think that's it. And we can read what the blessings are of those who remain faithful til the end. There's so many things in today's world that can shade our view of the eternal perspective but I know as we keep that eternal view on things we will lead a much more successful and happy life. And I have to say this cause I'm a missionary and I know how it feels to not have many investigators....look for those oppurtunities to share the gospel whether it be a book of mormon pass along card ensign or even bearing your testimony. We have been given this gospel freely and freely we should give. In D&C 60 verse 2 or 3 it tells us that the Lord is not pleased with those who have that talent and will not open up their mouths and if they don't open their mouths that talent will be taken away. So I know as we strive to find thsoe oppurtunities they will come and we will know what to do when it happens as long as we are doing all we can to share our great message with everyone! K I'm done getting preachy but I just love you all and think you are all the best and loved all your letters! Let me know if there's anyone who needs anything...extra prayers and such! Love you all!
letter from Houston!
Hey ya'll....k just kidding I don't talk like that yet. How is everyone doing?? I got your email dad and lyndsay sounds like things are going great. Well any guesses on where I am?....... I'm in College Station and I'm on a bike! Just what I wanted...haha although I could have done without the bike and it's only gonna get worse cause it's not even very hot yet I guess. It feels really hott but everyone says it's perfect right now. So yeah I'm here and my companion is Sister Lieber and she's from Bountiful Utah and totally knows the Farr's she went to school with Rachael. She's really nice and a really awesome trainer! So these last few days have been really great. On Saturday we were contacting a potential investigator and she wasn't home so we were walking back to our bikes and I saw a man who was getting out of his truck and I really felt like I should talk to him but I'm like no! can't do that he's just getting out of his car I don't want to bother him. But I went up to him and told him that we have a message for him and told him a little bit about our message and asked him if we could set up a time to share more with him and he said yes I'd really like that! He said I really need to get back in to church I need this in my life! And I gave him a Book of Mormon and asked him to read out of it and to pray about it and he said he would and we're going back tomorrow night and teaching his wife and him. I'm really excited he seems very interested. And then we taught an investigator a lesson and as we were leaving her apt complex there was a lady in her 20's walking to her apt with her two boys and I asked her if we could share a message with her and she said well how long will it take cause i'm cookin and so we taught her as she was cooking the first lesson. She understood everything and it made so much sense to her. She said I get so confused because there's so many religions and so we taught her about joseph smith and how we can do as Joseph Smith did and pray to know the things we desire. So we made another appt to teach her and her husband tomorrow afternoon and we asked her to read out of the Book of Mormon 3 Nephi 11 and to pray about it so she could know for herself and she said she would. She's really great and her boys are so dang cute! And then yesterday at church we met a guy who is 27 and from China and he's here til June 3rd for school. He and Bro larson from our ward ride the same bus to A&M and they started talking about our church and Alex just invited himself to church how awesome is that! So they brought him yesterday and after church we had a meeting but he wanted to learn more so Bro Larson said just skip your meeting and ride over to our house and we'll eat lunch and you can teach him! So we did and it went awesome...he had a lot of questions and wants to know more so we are teaching him this saturday night and he's makng dinner, yum gotta love that real chinese food huh? I'm sure I'll get use to all this crazy food. But yeah he's so awesome I love talking to him! He reminds me so much of Nina it makesme miss her more! Oh and one investigator Yuanfa is from Wuhan mom isn't that cool? And he's been taking the discussions for awhile and has a testimony and he always comes to church but we've sorta got a problem with him. He's here getting his PHD and he's going to be a professor in China and he's part of the Communist Party so he's really scared to get baptized because he doesn't know what would happen to him over in China is they knew he was mormon, or really just Christian. But his girlfriend who he's going to marry is Christian and so is her family and they want him to be too. So mom I actually need a favor. Yuanfa has skype and we were thinking maybe he could talk to John about the Church and China and the consequences? Or just at the least he'll have someone in China that believes in the church and be able to relate with. So can I have John's skype address and can you let him know Yuan Fa Tan is going to be skypin him? Let me know if you don't think that's a good idea but I think it'd help a ton because he's so close and I know he'll be a big help in the church opening in China whether he gets baptized here or later. Anyways so everything is going really awesome there is 6 of us in a district. Elder Hiatt is from Vale oregon which is pretty close to Ontario I guess. Elder Beck is from Murietta California and he plays football for BYU and he's been out about a year. Elder Olive is from Salt Lake and Hawaii and both him and Beck are polynesian, well beck is half but yeah so they go on comp exchanges every p day cause they like eachother a lot haha. And then Elder Clark is from Twin Falls and him and Beck are the ZL's and Olive is the DL. They are way awesome and great missionaries. The day after wegot here, all of us newbies and our comps and Pres and Sis Hansen went to the Houston Temple and did a session it was so great!
MTC
So the most important news of the day has to be that Elder Holland came and spoke to us on Tuesday night!! Wow...he is so incredible we are really privileged to be here for that! It was such an amazing devotional and I really needed it so it was perfect! And get this...so Sister Rucker and I were walking back to class after the devotional on the sidewalk and he drove right past us and his window was rolled down and there was about 6 of us and he says love ya work hard and waves...and everyone waves and for some reason I gave him a peace sign! and I was like oh shoot what did I just do! Haha yes classic Caitlin I know! It was awesome though I loved all of it! The MTC is such an amazing place and I am learning more and more every single day! I am sooo ready to leave though! I can't wait to meet my mission president and get started teaching and finding new investigators!
First letter from the MTC
Hi Everyone!! So I only have exactly 27 minutes so I have to type fast! How is everyone doing?!! I hope everyone is awesome because I am doing so amazing! The MTC is so incredible and it's something you can't explain until you actually experience it! I've only been here a day over a week but it's flown so fast I can't even explain it! And the things I have already learned you have to know the Lord helps you and you are nothing without him because I have learned so incredibly much in a week! We taught an investigator on Monday at the Teaching Resource Center and it's where members come and act as investigators but it's totally so real and you can feel the spirit so strong!
Look out Houston Here she comes MTC
Once Caitlin decided she wanted to serve a mission, she was ALL over it! She went to town filling out papers, buying clothes, reading scriptures, and going on splits with our ward sister missionaries!
Caitlin entered the MTC(Missionary Training Center) in Provo, Utah on April 1st, 2009(No fooling!)
