Dad: When did Elder Leota enter the
MTC?
The 26th of July [2011].
Dad: In one of the papers you sent
home, there were some notes. You drew a picture of a stick figure in
a boat with an oar and flag. You listed five things 1) surface
meaning, 2) whole picture, 3) symbolic meaning, 4) personal
application, and 5) Savior and Atonement. If you have time, do you
mind sharing your thoughts on these notes?
It was a training on how to dig deeper
into the scriptures. They are the different levels of studying.
Dad: You sent home a visitor's pass
to the Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson military facility. What is the
story behind it?
One of the members lives up there, and
we went to see and eat dinner with him and his family.
Dad: Do you get to attend the
temple?
Yes, when we came back to anchorage
with the members of the Whitehorse branch. I think I sent you home
the cards. I did the work for Daniel Owens I think.
Dad: Elder Steven Snow has been
called to serve as Church historian.

Wow, I'll have to check that out.
Dad: Cordova, AK got 18 feet of
snow. They called in the national guard to help the residents dig
out. Do you know of any missionaries serving in that area?
Not off the top of my head but WOW
that's crazy awesome! My district leader Elder Thompson served there
in the past.
Mom: How deep is the snow where you
are?
Like 6" to a foot, but the snow
banks are like 5' high.
Love you all,
Elder Record
