Dear Hulet Family,

Hey guys its been a great week here in the wa tac! Im so greatful to be here and i love every minute of it. Sometimes its hard being a missionary but for the most part its alot of fun and everyday is an adventure! Okay so this week we had a great blessing of getting lester to church so that he could be confirmed and given the gift of the holy ghost. Lester has a really bad back so he has a hard time making it to church on sundays but this week he was determined to make it. He sat through sacrament meeting in alot of pain. It was a blessing from the lord that he could make it. This has been a great transfer. Im so excited to hear that jake is getting ready for his mission itll be here sooner than he knows! i hope he has his call before mothers day! maybe he could open his call over our skype?? anyways i love you guys and i pray for you guys every day! I want you guys to know that the lord lives and loves each one of us. He paid the price for our sins and rose again on the third day, This is his church and im grateful to be his servant.
I love you guys!
Okay so i want to tell you guys about my week. 
So earlier this week i went on an exchange with elder holt and while we knocked we came across a black preacher and he had the cliche black preacher voice. he was very thug ha ha anyways ive gained a better appreciation of knocking doors because we are really just trying to find the people who are ready and so i think knocking can really be a strong point for me! I love it! Yesterday while knocking we knocked into a lady named kate she had just gotten back from church when we asked her if she wanted to hear a message about jesus christ. We taught the restoration on her front porch, and the spirit was very strong. shes down to have us come back and learn more! we are also teaching a boy named tony a few days ago we knocked into tony as we shared the message of the restoration he felt the spirit and we put him on date to be baptized right then and there. he is a great kid! also patrick has been baptized and confirmed. And also a boy named andrew and his mother shawn are taking the lessons from us andrew is going to pick a date to be baptized next time we go over! Im so grateful to teach him! It just goes to show how powerful the youth of this generation are! Im grateful to the lord for all the prosperity weve been having, it is by his hand that we can share this message to people who are ready!!! I love this gospel and i love my savior jesus christ!  
 Love Elder Hulet

Hey Hulet Family,
Hey guys how are you doing?? Im so glad to hear everything at home is going well and that you guys are finding sucess in life. :) Im so glad to hear that natasha is getting bapized!! i had no idea she wasnt a member i always assumed that she was a member of the church! But this week in the WA TAC has been great! Elder gardner and i had a baptism! Patrick Doyle was baptized and confirmed on saturday and sunday :) im so happy to see him baptized he is such a great kid! He is the only one in his family now that is a member but his family was at the baptism and they were really emotional so were going to start teaching them this week :) ill send some pictures with this e mail. Lester still needs to be confirmed so keep praying for him, hali is still preparing to be baptized and amanda is getting married and baptized on saturday so keep praying for her as well. Andrew is a 15 year old boy who wants to be baptized and his mom is also investigating the church as well! so were having alot of sucess. Im greatful that i could meet all of these people they are changing my life. Chirst is changing my life as i follow him. Im so grateful to be here its truly the greatest expirence of my life. Hey will you guys invite sarah over during her spring break?? :) and also for mothers day so i can talk to her on the phone ha ha thank guys. so whats going on at home with everyone?? How is jake ashlee and dad doing Please let them read this letter! mom i love you and im greatful you have raised me in the gospel of jesus christ. There are two types of people those who live the gospel and those who study it and wonder why it doesnt work... well its because they dont live it. as you guys live the gospel i know your life will be blessed so much becasue that is the true way to being closer to our savior. I know jesus christ is my savior and i know that this is the church of jesus christ in these latter days, and i know thomas s monson is a true prophet of the lord. I say that in the name of jesus christ amen.
I love you guys,
Love Elder James Hulet

Hey Hulet Family,
 
I love you guys! Ive been pretty busy this last week and really quite exhausted. Since weve switched to bike everyday has been a workout so waking up has been hard! Yesterday we tried making juavos rancheros for breakfast and i accidentally poured too much flour into the eggs it turned out to be really spicey and gross! Patrick is getting baptized this next week and i am so happy for him he is 15 years old. He is such a great kid it makes me excited that one day he may serve a misson! Jake and ashlee i hope you guys are enjoying life right now, I miss you guys quite a bit you are some of my best friends even tho i didnt act like it when i was living at home. I hope both of you guys get to come out and serve the lord because it is so much fun and Amazing. Amazing grace is what saves us all. Its real! Because of it you can become who you want to become and who the lord wants you to become. The lord is helping me become the man ive always wanted to be. Im truly humbled to be here, theres no where else in the world i would rather be right now. Fear and doubt is the opposite of faith. You guys can do ANYTHING with the help of the lord! Dang i love you guys so much. I pray for you guys all the time!
 
Love Elder Hulet

Okay this week pray for lester to make it to church to be confrimed and hali, patrick, and amanda they are all getting dunked this weekend :) Im so grateful to be a missionary of this true church the only true and living church on the earth today.
