The work is what's most important I will be here for Lao Chin Hao's
baptism! He is getting baptized the week of my birthday! How cool! He
is so amazing. He txted us Sunday morning saying, that he had played
video games through the entire night, so he wouldn't come to church
because he was so tired. But we helped him out to convince himself
that he could do it! And then he made it to church even though he was
dead tired!! He is so amazing!!! I love that guy!!

Love you,
Elder Killpack

Family and Friends, 

What a week! We went to Taco Bell last week again with the Bos's! It
was yummy. I learned a lot from Elder Bos about schooling, and how to
go through school, amd what might be good options. I love learning
from the Ehepaars here in the Mission.

Tuesday was good. We tausched with the Elders in Esslingen, which
means, Elder McDaniel for me! We had a good time! Found a cool guy
from the Philippines named Roy. He was way sweet! We doored quite a
few houses, and met some nice people, hopefully they will see some
success through that!!

Wednesday we were at Esslingens District Meeting. It was a good time.
That district is doing great things! In fact Tübingen Elders just had
a baptism this last week, which is like the 10th one in the last year
for that branch!! Things are going great down there!! I am proud of
those guys! We also taught Jim ( Lao Chin Hao). He is for sire getting
baptized. The only question is if I will be there for it... But that
doesnt matter so much, because he is doing the best possible thing he
can do for himself at this time!! Man, I love Jim!! He is so amazing!

Thursday, we rode a bus to Munich for MLC, and watched a talk from
Elder Ballard. We need to use the time in our life/mission, not kill
it. Then I was able to meet up with my old buddies, Elder Bates from
Pforzheim, Elder Hadfield from Passau, and Elder Hunt from stuttgart!
Oh it was great!! We also ate some Hans im Glück and it was tasty!

Friday MLC. It was a good one. A lot of frustration, because we are
trying to change the culture of the mission, and there are just some
things that I just dont understand why missionaries do them, or talk
back to president about some rules.. Ah just makes me so sad in the
end to see missionaries we have worked 20ish years to be here, just to
kill time for two years... I also had to talk at MLC and that was
intense... Ha! It was a good time! Then Tausch with Elder Albrecht
started in Munich. He was kinda sick the whole tome, but we were still
able to make it to a part member family appointment at night time.
They were so cool the son is getting baptized this Coming Saturday!

Saturday was the end of our tausch. I learned a lot from Elder
Albrecht. He is a way good guy! We had a good time together, and cant
wait until simmer when we will go golfing together ha! He is a stud.
Then we rode the train home.

Sunday was funny ha. We had three investigators make it to church, but
it was funny how it happened. So we now have church at 13:00 and so
church starts and none of them are there... Jim shows up 5 mins late,
then Felix 15 mins after that, and then another 15 mins later Dogbo
shows up! It was funny because there was no room in the inn, and so we
could spread them out in the chapel, so then ended up just sitting all
together ha! Then we had dinner with the Bos's it was great!

Love you all,
Elder Killpack

Dear Family, 

I had a great time Skyping you guys!! It was so weird to see all the
grown up kiddos!!! My nephews and niece are the best ones!! I am glad
Elder Kingsbury is out here!! I will have to get his email so I can
write him! He is a great guy. 
So I will give you a quick but powerful update on Lao Chin Hao! He is
golden and going to get baptized! He understands everything we teach
him, and he remembers it all! He bore his testimony to us last
Saturday about how he knows the BOM is true! And that Joseph Smith is
a Prophet! And that this is the only true church! He wants to get
baptized, he just needs to hear all the commandments now!

Crazy stuff! Thanks for everything you did this Christmas season! Not
only for me, but for the whole family! I am so grateful for you in my
life!

Love,
Elder Killpack

HELLO!!!!!!!!

We had a fun week here in Stuttgart. Last week we were in Esslingen and had a lot of fun. We went to their Christmas Markt, and it was amazing! You told me in a letter that you bet Germany is a dreamland during Christmas... That was an understatement! I love it here! It truly is magical! Work wise was a little harder this week... And it was mostly our faults! We were calling as many people as we should have been. We were just scattered brained the whole week with transfers, chirstmas stuff, sport abend, and the list goes on, but we didnt call everyone we needed to in order to meet with everyone! But we will do better this week! I have gotten into the christmas spirit this last week pretty hard, especially on the German side. I decided to change my gift idea... Instead of getting every sibling, and Madi something I got you and dad something... It was a little more pricey than what I had planned, but I couldnt resist!!!!!!!!!!! I will just say it is a classic german christmas item:) I really hope you like it and that it gets to you guys soon! I still have to send it! Oh and that reminds me! Bruder Klemm from Landshut sent me a package with German christmas sweets! It was great!!!!!! Well I love you so much!!! Have a great week!!!!!!!!

Love, 

Elder Killpack

Hello Mother!

Well, transfers were this week, and I will be staying in Stuttgart
with Elder Rahlf! He is a great guy, and his experiences in life have
helped me out a ton! It is amazing how the Lord works with what
companions you have and at what time you have them. I am so grateful
to be here in Germany learning the things that I am. It is so weird
how fast the time has gone by and I am scared to see how fast the time
will go, but it will all be good. This week all the sisters from my
MTC group go home... That is so weird! I really will miss those
Sisters. Everyone in the mission knows that our group is the best
group, but now half of us are going home. One of the sisters in from
Brigham City so could you possibly go her homecoming, and take
Jesse... I already told her she has to go on a date him haha. She already
knows the Killpacks, because of Brett. Her name is Sister Fenton, I
will let you know the details when I get them! Our investigators are
doing well. The common trend seems to be the fact that they don't
accept the fact that God has an Absolute Truth... It is sad and hard
to help them because they think both of us are on Gods path so there
is no reason to change. Pray for them please! Well I love you so much
and thanks for all you do for me!

Dear Family and friends,

 We had a very american thanksgiving this last week! It was great! TRUKEY POTATOES STUFFING, PIE!!!!!!! I love living next to the army bases here in Stuttgart! It is the Absolute best! We also got to play a turkey bowl! AMERICAN FOOTBALL!!!!! It was the best! awww it 

was a great week! We went golfing today Kinda... haha and we went through the christmas market!!!! That was fun. Today has just been a great day... I missed golf so much! It was the first time that I hit a golf ball since I came out on my mission... You can only imagine right?? hahah We had some great lessons with Lamiss. She is from Lebanon. She is finishing her PHD for Physics right now... she is 33. Safe to say she is super smart haha!! but she is so golden. She has heard and understood every lesson so far, the only ones to teach now are Law of Chastiy and Word of Wisdom. She is great! I think she is just scared that she has to be perfect once she is baptized... so we taught her that the atonement is an infinite atonement and that it has to be, because we will never be fully perfect on this earth! Mosiah 26:29-30! She will come around! I know it:) transfers come in on Friday. 

 Love you so much and I am so grateful for you! Love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love,

Monday: Looked all day for comp tie but couldn't find one:(

Tuesday: We went to our district meeting here in Stuttgart, and then went to a district meeting in Göppingen, and did a super Tausch in Göppingen. I was working with Elder Meiners! It was a lot of good:) We went finding on the streets and had a lot of great conversations with people.

Wednesday: Did some service on Tausch and then came back to Stuttgart and were able to meet up with Felix! He is doing good, we are talking about what Faith actually is, because we have agreed that Faith can save us, but now we need to figure out what faith is. 

Donnerstag: MLC in Munich. A long bus ride to Munich. and a great devotional from 2004 by Elder David A. Bednar

Friday: MLC all day. 6 hours of meeting with the finest in the mission! It was a great meeting where I learned a lot! Learned about, becoming a missionary, and not just going on a mission. Learned about, Why it is so important to talk to everyone, and how we can help the rest of the zone follow that lead! Then we rode a bus all the way back home to stuttgart just in time to get to bed:)

Saturday: Planned for Zone training, and taught Bruder Heuer! He is doing good! We also taught Stefan and got him to come to church with us yesterday!!! Wahoo!!! He is a great guy!

Sunday: CHURCH! It was great to see Bruder Heuer and Stefan there! We also ate some good food at the Schaal family's house! Then we went finding! and found the coolest lady from Lebanon! She is probably the most golden I have ever met! She is fantastic! then we went to Schwester Leyensätters house for some cheesecake and to sing hymns together! It was great! Love you all!!!!!!!!!
