Hey mom and dad and jake and ashlee,
 
How are you guys doing? ive been doing quite well here in McKenna. its a fairly small town but we still have a Wal-Mart so its all good. the work has been going well this week were baptizing a guy named mark Harris he has been working with the missionaries for years now and so we where able to get him on date to be baptized. Im really grateful that we have been able to do that, the moment I met him I knew we would baptize him so im really happy about that. The other day while we where knocking doors we didn't have much success but towards the end of our two hour knocking session we turned down a road, when we turned down the road it just felt right. we met a kid named Donald who is interested in the gospel  and wants to take the steps to baptism. Im so grateful to be out here and be having all the success that we've had the only explanation is that this is gods work and I simply have the privilege oh serving him. Its hard sometimes but its well worth it. will you guys please let becky and grandma and grandma and grandpa know that im doing well. im so thankful to be out here doing the lords work. Hey how are you guys doing whats new? anything exciting?
 
Okay I love you guys,
Love elder hulet

Hey guys,
 
Something that i have really struggled with is writing you guys :( im really sorry. They only give us an hour to email and it goes by fast. I usually email sarah her and i have grown really close during my mission so im so sorry for neglecting you guys. Will you forgive me. Im going to create a list of people who haven't heard from me and start sending a weekly email to all of you guys. I really love my mission it is the greatest experience of my life the lord is helping me perfect myself everyday the mission is a growing experience :) Okay so my new companion is elder jones he is really cool hes from Layton Utah and hes just a really good missionary he is dedicated to the work. I love being here in lacey.
Two days ago we were able to go put a guy named mark harris on date for baptism, his whole family is active and he comes to church every week but just hasn't been baptized the missionaries have tried for years... i feel a strong connection to mark so im happy that hes made the discisoin to be baptized. I love you guys, Keep your heads up i know that the lord is watching over you guys. Trust him.
 
I love you mom, Iove you dad, I love you ash, I love you jake, and i love you casey and benji

Hey mom how are you doing? are you and the family doing well? im sorry that i  haven't sent a good email in a few weeks so hopefully i can fill you in on some things that are going on up here in forks:) so today its really hot and muggy it feels like 1000 degrees outside ha ha i love you guys so much i hope each one of you guys reads your book of Mormon and prays continually everyday the world is such a scary place these days and its easy to be swept away by the filthy waters that are raging beneath us. If we hang on to the rod and realize were all human beings that need the help of the lord we will be uplifted and protected. The work is going really well and im seeing a lot of miracles the lord had been so merciful to me and he has blessed me so much for the service im rendering him. I love being out here on my mission! pray always that ye may come off conqueror that ye may conquer satan. i may be transferred out of forks in about a week and a half president weaver doesn't like leaving anyone up here too long but i hope he lets me stay another transfer because there is much work for me to finish up here i love forks! well i love you guys, Love elder hulet

Hey guys i want you to know how thankful i am to have such a good family to love and support me. How are you guys all doing? So we found out that one of the recent converts we had Jolene was a scam artist. she is a drug dealer and she was getting baptized under different names so that she could get free rent on expense of the church. Its kind of a bummer but on the bright side were working with my last recent converts mom
nance. She is really solid and is on date for the 29th of june. Im so happy that we can help her out :) the work is going quite well ive had a few rough days in the past weeks but thats life. I hope you guys are doing well i love you and miss you.

Hulet family,
 
I love you guys so much its so good to be out here. This week was a hard one for me probably the hardest week ill have on my mission. But i gave a talk on forgiveness this week and it gave me the support i need to keep carrying on. Im so happy for jake he is the man and im stoked that hes working on his papers. I think he'll go to argentina or something. . is ashlee driving yet? ha ha she is so short shell need a booster seat jk ashlee i love you. Elder rasmussen and i get along well. were having a great time and we are loving the work. yeah i think ill be transferred in about 4 weeks president doesnt like keeping missionaries up here too long because its pretty hard being out in the boonies. But i love you guys and i hope everything is going well. make miracles happen and have faith in your prayers. I love you.
Love, Elder Hulet
