Parker's favorite scripture


PSALM 23
A Psalm of David
1 The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. 2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. 3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. 4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; they rod and thy staff they comfort me. 5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. 6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

September 9, 2015

JULIIIIIII!!!!!!!! I miss you so much and love you so much. Okay I didn't want to tell you in my last email but my suitcase got switched with someone else. I have my suitcase not but someone else took mine and I took hers because they looked the same. Oh my gosh, I was so upset when I opened the suitcase and saw a bikini in it. But, my suitcase is now here and everything is okay.

It's so weird because I am with Germans 24 hours of the day, I forget words in English. We were talking to some Americans at the Tempe the other day and I paused for like 30 seconds just so I could think of the word to say. It's also kind of hard to write in English.

England is absolutely beautiful. The weather is always 65 degrees and not humid. The sky is usually scattered clouds and not super hot bright sunlight. It is the ideal weather. German is so dang hard. The hardest part is teaching and the grammar. I know enough to get by but the grammar is so hard to remember. In English we would say, "I want to sleep now", in German it's "Ich mochte jetzt schalfen" which in English translates to I want now to sleep. It's just so weird. I'm getting progressively better and am constantly praying for the gift of tongues. Oh, also, I am sure from this email you can figure out but my P day in the MTC is Wednesday not Monday so that's why you didn't get an email on Monday.

I love you most and that's that.
