Dear Family, How is the weather in Az? This weekend the low is supposed to be negative 20 and the high negative 8. It will be brutal. So this past week has been crazy, we drive into Dillon last Thursday for District Meeting. Afterward we drive to the Dillon DMV since Elder Barrera’s license expires the next day. Well Dillon can’t do it on a Thursday so we get special permission from the Assistanst to drive all the way to Butte. We finally get into Butte and get to the DMV right before it closes and they tell Elder Barrera they can’t issue a new one because we were missing something so needless to say I am now the designated driver. We stay the night in Butte then we drove back to Sheridan the next day. Yesterday was Zone Conference/Christmas Party. I drove from Sheridan all the way to Butte and then to Helena and back on icy roads and a lot of wind, it was a ton of fun, while watching for deer and elk! We have the Ward Christmas Party tonight and that should be fun, we are hoping some good potential investigators show up. Judy Heintz’s baptism is right after Church on Sunday. The package is fantastic. Can’t wait to open them all. We had a less active member take us to a reataurant that was cool. Sand last Sunday we got this big time inactive lady to come to Church. Everybody was asking what we did. Sheridan Ward seems to be getting more and more excited each day. Have a great week. Love, Elder Hinton
