Hey Mom,
It is going this fine December day, we went shopping at Meijer and I took my coat off before we went in. After Meijer I went and made my Christmas card that I will be sending out probably tomorrow. It is pretty sweet.
Last week was pretty good, on Friday we went on exchanges with the zone leaders. I went to Lake Orion and Elder L. from Hyrum came to Clarkston.
Yeah right now we are on the brink of putting several new people on date. My most favorite thing about my mission is to see people change and hunger after the scriptures, and the gospel.
I love you guys, and good job on reading the Book Of Mormon. Keep up the good work and continually feast upon the words of Christ. 2 Nephi 32:3
Love Elder Wood

December 5, 2011 (Week 49, Month 11, Day 335)
Hello Mom,
And yeah it is my 11th month out, and today I finished the Book Of Mormon for the second time while on my mission. It is going by quite fast, and I was getting a little overwhelmed because it is going by so fast. So by the way, have you been reading your scriptures everyday, and pray in the morning and at night?
That is a pretty cool about the story that D C told at the ward Christmas breakfast. When I get back I will have to show you a movie about a guy that found a Book Of Mormon in an alley. You never know what impact you have on others, even just by leaving a Book Of Mormon laying around.
Yesterday we went and watched the Christmas devotional.
I love you and thank you for all that you do for me. And Merry Christmas. I can now use my phrase, some people like to get after me during the rest of the year.
Love Elder Wood
3 Behold, I would exhort you that when ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them, that ye would remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the creation of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ponder it in your hearts.
4 And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost.
5 And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things.

Howdy Mother,
Your Elder Sonny boy is doing well. Last week was a pretty good week. On Thanksgiving we went to several of our ward members houses. We could stay at each one for up to two hours. On Thanksgiving morning we went to one of the neighboring high schools, and we had a Turkey Bowl football game between the young men and the adults. We were on the adults side, and we won. Usually the young men win. I was a rusher, and a blocker, Elder O went out for receiving. We had over 50 people out on the field, so it was a little bit crazy. At one of the members house (which live on a golf course) we went out and hit a couple balls. At first it was a little bit scary, I was missing them like crazy at first, and then it came back to me.
On Saturday we had a baptism for D, he is so sweet and is going to be an awesome member. We have been meeting with him for several weeks now, and is doing great.
That is good that you guys had a pretty good week also, sounds like you got some good shopping in. And probably found some good deals on stuff. I was thinking when I was getting ready last Friday at seven if you were out waiting for the stores to open. One of the less active members we met with last week joked with us, after asking if we could do anything for them. "You could go and wait in line for us".
I hope that all is well with you, I am doing good with stuff.
I love you and keep on reading the Book Of Mormon every night and make it a priority. Thank you for all that you do for me. I love you so much.
Love Elder Wood

Hey Mom,
How are you doing? Sounds like you had a good time at Kyle's (Elder G.) welcome home. I am doing well, Elder O. is so AWESOME. He has been out for seven weeks, and so I am follow up training him. Some cool miracles are going to happen this transfer, and the one to come. And yes we are going to have a baptism this week. It is kind of weird teaching people that are your age or are older than you.
For Thanksgiving we are going over to a members house, and maybe another house too. Who knows quite yet.
Yeah we are doing well, and this transfer is going to be a good one. It is going to be fun follow up training Elder O.
I hope that you have a good day, and keep on reading your scriptures everyday.
I love You, Elder Wood
