YIKEES!!!! He crashed on his Bike!!!




Geezzz!!!! Just got word that Elder Schroeder crashed on his bike!!! He said he is fine and it only hurts when he takes the bandage off his knee....what! This was his comment to me "that was the first crash that involved blood, and only the third one in 13 months :)" I like his positive attitude lol. He was having an exceptionally great day with his bike...he said he crashed twice in 5 minutes...the first time in a bush..which he climbed out of, then the bloody knee crash...hmmmm...maybe he needs to focus more while riding his bike, or even BE CAREFUL!!! Oh, and I think it also involved his new pair of pants that we sent him for Christmas...yes, hole in the knee! I told him to send them home and I will see what I can do...it might be he will need another new pair of pants...oh well, this is the price you pay as a parent of a missionary hahahahaha. The life of a missionary...

This week is transfer week and Elder Schroeder and Elder Nielsen are staying in Walla Walla...they are excited to have time to really teach people in that area. His home address, which is a room and bathroom in the basement of the 2nd counselor's home is 32 Francis Dr Walla Walla, WA 99362.

They are currently teaching a man and a couple right now... he said they are working on teaching others. He ended his email with his experience at dinner "we had a really fun time at dinner last night. We shared a thought and I felt the spirit way strong. I love being a servant of Heavenly Father!" That is a missionary...crashes on his bike, hole in the his pants but all that matters is his love for being a servant of Heavenly Father...it's fun to hear his love for his mission...
