Elder Todd Glad in Oklahoma



Dear Family,
Well I made, it and I totally was not expecting to be able to email today but here I am, Sister Farayas, I think thats how you spell it is having her first interview with President Taylor.  Well I've arrived safe and well but I am really quit tired but I guess that is a good thing and it can also be attributed to waking up at 2 this morning.  Can I just say that I'm so glad that I'm not traveling still that would almost just drive me crazy.  Well today when I got here it felt like they were just throwing a whole lot of stuff right at me and expected me to remember it.  It kind of felt like the first day at the MTC.  It was good though, it was good.  Anyways after we went over all this orientation stuff some missionaries that are in the area came and I went tracting with Elder Soto, and Elder Forsyth.  We knocked some doors placed a Book of Mormon and got a return appointment.  Hopefully something comes of it.  People here are really straight up they will tell you that they are not interested at all and they already had their own churches. It was kind of funny it was my first time tracting and Elder Forsyth's last time, he leaves tomorrow.  That is just crazy I can hardly believe that.  Then I had an interview and then we had dinner.  Here is a picture of me with President Taylor and his wife hope you like it.  Monday is P Day and I love you all have a really good one. Love you all so much.
Sincerely,
Elder Glad the Second

Are you Always Glad Elder Todd Glad :)

Dear Family,

I leave the MTC at 3 in the morning, we have a lay over in Texas for two hours at 10 in the morning, Texas time I believe and the next flight to Oklahoma leaves at 12 there time, so I will most likely probably be calling then, I don´´t know what time that will be Utah time but I´´m sure that dad can figure it out. It should be really cool I´m super excited. Well this week well actually yesterday we had Elder Richard G. Scott come and talk at out Devotional, and then after it was over we went out the door that he was out and watched him drive away one of the neatest experiences that I´´ve ever had, one thing that he said that kind of took me by surprise is that he brought up marriage and how when we get home we need to set a goal to find our eternal companion, I was like ``Wow everyone here has just under two years, unless they are a Sister, to worry about that why are you telling us that now.´´ I guess that if you don´´t plan for the future then you wont end up anywhere. Lets see what else, everything is going good the language is coming along great. Just kidding, but actually I´´m learning a little bit of spanish from everyone else here learning spanish. Which is pretty cool. The only other person that is really writing me is Kaden Jackson, I´´ve gotten two letter from him, so tell everyone else to write me, I really want to hear from them. I actually did get an email from Carson so I would like you guys to send a email onto him since its against the rules for me to write to him. I don´´t know what else to say, Dad I don´´t know how to get your home teaching up I guess just pray and commit everyone to 100% then they will feel it if they fail. Sounds like everything is going well. LOve you all and hope that you are having success in all you activities. A.J. Sister Sara Rice says hi she is in my Zone here at the MTC really cool. Anyways love you all and hope you know I love you.

Sincerely,

Elder Glad the Second

I read A.J.´´s email bfore writing last week.

Also I don''t know if I told you guys but I will be going to the temple today, and I was able to also go last Wednesday so that is really cool. I also got one package through dear elder from Clint and Taunya, and I also got a package from Kristy, there was a lot of resses and a journal in the one from Kristy, and the one from Clint and Taunya, were Cinnamon Rolls. Which are pretty good. Well I don''t know much what else to say just that I''ll be talking to you on the 25th from Texas which will be pretty sweet, and hopefully I''ll be able to get you my mailing address then, but until then just keep smiling : ). ""Elder Glad are you Glad"" ""Always"" :-) Love you all and have a good one.

Why did the Chicken Cross the Play Ground, To get to the Other Slide. Hahahahaha. You''ll have to tell Emily I said that. Love you all and have a great week

Sincerely,

Elder Todd Glad

Great letter From Elder Todd Glad

Dear Family,

so I only have a half an hour on my email time, so sorry if I don't answer any of your questions that you sent in you letters I'll probably print them off and answer questions that you had in some letters that I might write. Well anyways, today is my p day which is really cool, its been nice to kind of relax and take a step back from everything. I sent you a letter with a lot of details that have been going on here so be look for that in the mail, but right now I wanted to address some of the questions in your letters, For Angela and everybody else, I'm doing awesome, my companions all of them are pretty sweet they are all funny guys and love humor which is a good way to relieve som stress. The food is good but like I said in the letter it just seems to go right through me so thats not to good, I find myself on the toilet more often then I was at home which is kind of horrible but I"m working with it. The shot that they gave me was the TDAP shot, don't know what it stands for but it was a huge penutbutter shot that almost went right through my arm, I felt kind of like Captain America. Jk LOL I don't know if I had it before but it wasn't on the paper so they gave it to me so I had to pay for it. Thanks dad for cleaning the bathroom I'm sure Angela will appreciate it a lot. OH yeah and dad don't worry about the whole Temple thing it was probably for the best. Well life continues to move forward slowly but surely, they say after last Sunday that life goes so fast, but I don't think that I've noticed really that much of a change. Though I will be out of here is a week and a half so that is cool, but then I'll be hitting the big times. Sorry if I didn't answer your questions in this email I will write another letter I think this week before Next P-Day so do not fear. Tell everybody I said hi, and I love you all and hope that the work moves forward where you are because I know that it does here. Love you all and I'll talk to you later.

Sincerly,

Elder Glad,

The Second
