Hello!
So things seem that they are going really well at home. At this point in the mission I am not a DL anymore, thank goodness not upset about that. I am not a moving elder either, I am just straight up senior companion and loving it! I can't believe that I only have 1 more transfer after this, its way cool though, I am so excited. We are working with lots of people we have found tons of new people but I am not going to tell you about them until they really start progressing because its like that one minute there hot and the next they are completely cold. Things are going really well we have a lady named Yudelk who has a baptismal date for the 23rd of May, she is way rad she is going thru a divorce so things right now are a little rough for her, but she is rocking it like no other, she is coming to church she can only come for sacrament because she has a contract to help at a orphanage and so there is no way she can get out of that. She has so much potential and is just willing to do everything that we give her. We are going to old San Juan today it is in our area so we can go there when ever we would like. I am just loving it though to tell the truth, life is greatI was a little crushed to leave Trujillo Alto but now I am so glad ,its given me the chance to really put myself out there and get to know alot more people. I was just way to comfortable over there its great though I love it! Yes, I would love some pics from Colorado, I can't believe that calls are already here again! I cannot wait to talk to everyone. I am in love with my area, I probably have the coolest companion in the whole wide world Elder Francis he rocks!We are just loving it and having a good time. Well yeah time is flying by, I love and miss you all so much, I will be home before you know it. Thanks for the stamps and stuff and the new memory card, life is just so exciting. Talk to you soon. Love, Logan

Hello!
How are you? Yep, I got transfered. I am in Santurce, it is a pretty cool, big city and defininetly going to be a different experience. My companions name is Elder Francis, he is from Orem, UT he seems like a pretty cool cat...he has 3 transfers in the mission. I am in the peraira district. There is a greenie from Mesa here, his name is Elder Jake Free. That is rad to have another Arizonan in the mission! Turns out that I am in a pretty fresh district, I am one of the oldest ones out here now. So really nothing new, just packing and moving to my 8th area, but what can you do, that is life. Talk to you later... I love you.

Hello Family!
Wow, time is flying by so fast here for sure! I cannot believe that you have gotten my intinerary allready? I bet time is slower for parents than it is for us in the mission field. I still cannot believe that I was home like 9 months ago, and yes I agree it kind of seems like a dream. I am going to answer your questions today. I wasn't the one that gave Johnny Depp the pass along card, it was a group effort. The mission BBQ was pretty rad, there wasn't alot of our group that came out together, as alot of them are on the islands, so that was a bit of a bummer. But we are all looking forward to being together the night before we go home in July. I don't think it will seem real that I am going home until I am at home. Elder Ancieta hasn't said that he feels any different and I don't really feel any difference yet, I am just working hard. I just sent my memory card home and some letters for you and Dad. We don't have any investigators right now, we are just focusing on members because Elder Ancieta is leaving and we are just enjoying their company. We do have a prospect his name is Efrain, he is way rad we are working with him to come to church. Transfers are next week, I am hoping to stay in this area, with Elder Ancieta leaving it sure seems like it is possible. I am thinking I will be a DL, and hoping to finish my mission in this area. I would for sure love it. We have been having FHE with the older single people that don't have families and been having about 15 people coming every week, so that is way cool. I actually got a watch from a member the other day, she is going out of town and wanted me to give me a going away present incase I got transfered. So sweet, huh? I am really loving this ward, and working with them. Our P-Day will be Tuesday, I imagine I will be running around because my companion will be new and I have no idea what will really be happening. It has gotten hot here too, or it could be because the van broke down and we are walking everywhere? I have really stepped up my diet... I am hoping to really lose some weight before I step off the plane.... Oh, could you send me a memory card? I don't want to miss any memories. I love and miss you so much. Thanks for everything.
Love, Logan

I gave Johnny Depp a pass along card.....
Johhny Depp is filming the movie "The Rum Diary"that is due to hit theatres in 2010. The filming is taking place in Old San Juan, and Logan was there on P-Day, and had a goal of seeing Johnny Depp, and giving him a pass along card. Mission accomplished! (Logan said he would send a picture home, with the pass along card in Johnny's hand....) He handed it to him, thru his car window. Way to preach the gospel Elder Wells!

Hello Family!
We are going to old San Juan today, so I really don't have much time to email so its going to be short. Things are going well here, we are always working really hard. Cidmarie's baptism went really well. Her boyfriend is a member. Well I am super excited I really can't believe that it is already general conference and my last one in the mission. Oh and there is only one more phone call. I love Ancieta we get along really well, he is done at the end of this transfer so that is super crazy a little bit upsetting but it is all good. I really love the guys in my district, they are doing well we are all just learning from each other. I am just trying to help them do the things that I had not done in the beginning of my mision and it is working well . I love the work! I am super excited we have our big BBQ for the mission next week and that is going to be cool, I cannot believe its already been a year since all of that happened. So crazy! So how is my car coming along? I would like to see a picture of how it is looking. Well I was wondering if you can make sure that my interior is finished also before I get home? That would be way rad! I love and miss you so much!
Love, Logan

Hi Family!
Yes, it was definitely a bit weird that President Guldbrandsen showed up in the Ward on Sunday. I was definitely a little shocked but it was pretty cool so awesome to just see a recoginazable face! (Pres. Guldbrandsen, was the one that set Logan apart as a missionary in July 2007, he just happened to be on a cruise, and randomly picked a Ward to attend, and it happened to be the Ward Logan was attending. Our Stake has since divided.)really just strange, so cool though! Oh yes, I did recieve the letter and photos of Dad. Tell him to shave his mustache too!!!!!!! That would be so rad! Things are going really well here I am staying with Elder Ancieta that means that I get to kill him! I am excited about that for sure, we have had some great times and get along very good! We have had to do a bunch of airport stuff, we got to go to a meeting that President told us everyhting pretty awesome I sure enjoyed that, its really cool to just experience what goes on inside the closed doors. Truillo Alto is closing down so that means that the two of the Elders are leaving and my district will only be four, which I really don't mind we have to do call in every day and so that means one less to call. So we have to move and clean our apartment we will be going to the other apartment of the other Elders. They are going to shut ours down so that means lots of cleaning and so fun fun, not really... Oh, Elder Stevens came back from Barbados, he is back and we picked him up from the airport this morning and so that means that he will be with us all day so that should be interesting to say the least. We are doing really well we are going to be picking up some of the investigators of the other missionaries and so we shall see where that goes? Things are going really well I am loving the work here and definitely hoping to die in this area. Can you believe the date again tomorow its twenty months, where is the time going? It is nearly time to have general conference again seriously how crazy! Oh yeah then its May and we call home again and that means the last call and the last general conference... That is way sweet! I am super excited that Colten is gonna hit a year that is super exciting for him! I am loving every minute of this work! I hope that you have a great week!
Love always, Logan

Time is flying by so fast

Hi Mom and Dad!
Well yeah things are really great here! Oh and yeah P-Day is next Tuesday, due to transfers. We did have our baptisms last Sunday it was way awesome. We completed a family by all of them being members, so that was way sweet! So I was super excited about that, they are going to be confirmed this Sunday. No, we don't get to confirm people that often at least not here where people can do it, so that is where that stands. I am loving it here in Trullio Alto, I am doing well here and there are so many blesisings that we are seeing. Wow, time is flying by so fast I truly can't belive that it is already P-Day again. We are really working with lots of people right now we are working with a husband of another member so that is really cool his name is Efrain and so we are going to give him a date for the 29th of March for baptism this week. So I am really hoping to kill (a term when you are with a companion that is going home)Ancieta he is on his last transfer. So that is really sweet. President Dewsnup is really cool and its definately been neat getting to know him a little better. I am sorry that you had to do jury duty, and sad that you didn't get to go to Sedona with Cyndi, but what can you do? Be sure and tell me what the case was about if you can. Well I love you and can't wait to hear from you again. Have a great week ! Love Always, Logan
