Well for the people we are teaching one progressed to baptism yesterday! Samuel of 12 years was baptised. We are working on several others right now and are hoping everything goes well. We have met a few people that are truly interested. We just have to do it right and pray that they come through with everything.

We are doing very well already. My new companion is Elder Burton. He is a great companion and willing to learn. I must say it is a trial of faith to train another missionary. It is going well though and I am happier than I´ve ever been.

Time just goes by and all we worry about is who can we teach and help to the waters of baptism. The Lord does this work truly and all we have to do is do what He says. The Spirit helps us so much with all we do; it is amazing. There is no greater joy than missionary work.

The new mission president is amazing too. I would go into details more but I´m running out of time. He is inspired and filled with the Spirit. I am so grateful to be here at this time. Great things will begin to happen here and it all depends on the faith that we have.

Well, I love all of you and am grateful for your prayers and support. The Lord loves all of you and is watching out for you. This gospel is true and Christ´s church is on the earth with the power and authority of God. I love you all, be happy, have fun, share the gospel.
