Unfortunately Maxene wont be able to be getting baptized, She has not been able to come to church at all due to her pain. She is 70 so we cut her some slack, and she broke her back in the 80's still suffering from that. She is on a lot of pain killers too, both liquid and pill morphine (multiple times a day...), soma, Valium, and to top it off she has to be on oxygen... Yikes.
Recently she has been having a hard time walking due to the fact that her knee is grinding, lack of cartilage i think. :/ But the reason she cant be baptized is because of her use of Medical Marijuana. We had a rocky lesson but we managed to bring her around to try and get off it if she can. Hopefully she will pray and have faith sufficient. By the way Cheryl Lindsey should have sent me a Facebook request, so she want to send you some pictures. Get in contact with her.
We are really excited for the new family we picked up they have really hit the ground running! Surinder is from Malaysia, and she isn't going to let anything stand in the way of her and her daughters getting baptized. So we are working with her. Overall things are pretty good..
Go ahead and send the package if you want, but we have a xmas devotional on the 22nd so if it gets there before then there's a good chance i will get it. Just call the Mission office and ask them what to do. I will call your cell, just be ready, we have church at 9 but just sacrament meeting. so yah. ok bye, and yes it is a pretty sexy hat i agree.

Good morning Elder Scott --
Another week flown by like it was an hour. Your last week's note sounded very encouraging as far as the missionary work goes. I hope everything continues to progress as you were describing.
We are 13 days from Christmas --- and we need to work out a plan for you to call on that day. We will have Sacrament meeting at 11am - 12:10pm ( MT ) and then will be going to be spending dinner with the Rotheys etc. so let us know what time of day you will be calling. Perhaps its best to call one of our cell phones ( 720-810-1061, 720-300-7102 ) and then we can call you back in case you are at a members home or what not. Find out from your companero what the best approach is and let us know. We can't wait to talk to you.
We want to send your Christmas package -- and do not want to ship it to the mission home -- are you still leery about receiving packages at your apartment in Bakersfield? Please advise.
Weston and Mason are in the midst of finals -- they're all stressed out. It'll all be over in a few days then they can relax. Hopefully it stars snowing 'cause so far it's pretty bleak up in the mountains --- not like it was last year for us at this time.
Nothing much new to report around here ---Mom started working at another place -- she seems to like it -- it s a high-tech reproductive center where they help folks who are having struggles getting pregnant -- it should be easier work for Mom -- we'll see. She is scheduled for another back injection next week, so that should give her some relief. Can't wait.
Well, Elder -- we don't have much to share this week -- same o same o around here --- can't wait to hear how your week has been --- and get more of those lovely pictures. That was quite the sexy hat you were wearing ---
Later,
Dad
Love, Elder Tyler Scott
