26 to Go!!

Dear Family,

Well this week was great we had two bautisms this past Saturday. Two young men,  one is 11 the other is 10. They are so awesome!! I was so surprised when the older one, Wilmer, asked me to bautize him since I had only been here little over a week!! It was such a great blessing and I was honored to get to do that. After three times of going under we finally got it down too, his foot kept coming up out of the water, but hey what can ya do!!! 

We also will be having another two this Saturday as well for their little sister and grandma. We would of done them together but the sister was a bit nervous about the water so we bautized the brothers to show her and the grandma is because she was never confirmed when she was bautized way back when!! So she gets to go again. So be looking forward to that. It was so great though and we have another two set for the following month, so I am so hoping for that! Especially because we can`t swim and thats as close as we can get so I want to be in that pila as much as possible!! No, just kidding ~  it is such an amazing testimony builder and to see the change for the better this gospel does for people is incredible and something you can`t describe and to see and feel that there is truly no other joy in the world, and that is why I am here and that is why I love doing what I am doing. I encourage all to share the gospel and it will change and build your testimony so much by doing so I promise you that, and the joy you will feel is nothing like it!! 

Mom, I am so happy you took my challenge and are reading the Book of Mormon, it will help you so much I testify of that to you, with your day, with the family, work anything you need it is there to help us!! 

So what is the Arizona trip exactly??? How was your concert?? 

How is G-ray doing with b-ball?? How is dad doing??? 

Thank you so much Breeze and The Leatherows Josh and Jenn for writing every week, it means so much!! I am so glad to hear the Smuin boys are tearing up the court and making this cousin proud and keep it up boys!!! 

Well Family I love you all so much, oh ya the funny thing I have found is people are amazed when a white boy hang with them while playing some soccer!!! (; We are playing on some turf lately so that is great!! I love it so much!! 

Well family I love you all so much and hope you all are doing well, you are always in my prayers. 

I love you mom to the moon and back and then some!!! Take care!!
