Hello Everyone!

 

 I am so excited to be writing you once again on aother beautiful Monday. Alittle late than normal due to internet complications at our apt complexe.

 First off: Kevin You will be an awesome Senior Comp! I am excited to hear about all the things you will be teaching to the young buck you will be serving with. I pray for you more than you know.

Second Off: Tau, Kimm and Dad- Keni is coming to the best mission EVER! I am so excited that I will be serving with him. There are alot of incrediable spanish elders, that work so hard. Tell him he will be fed a lot by the spanish members here! I can't wait!!!

Third: Mom and Dad thank you so much for going to Sister Homers Homecoming! That makes me so happy! I love you both so much. Thank you. It is so weird that she is home.

 

Well As you see from my Subject Line. I am A "mother" of two bran new sisters. Sister Wilks and Sister Wenner. I love them both so much. They are wonderful. It is a little overwhelming to be a trainer of TWO new sisters. But I trust in the Lord, He is my strength and light. I depend on Him for EVERYTHING!!

 It has been a amazing first week with my lovely "twins". We have worked hard and not let a moment pass that we were talking to people, learning and growing. We even ended the Week with an AWESOME BAPTISM!!! Lex was baptized! and It was POWERFUL!!!! I love serving the Lord and seeing these yound adults change their life for the better. Lex was so ready to be baptized, I cried when he went under and came back up, As the doors to the font was closing, You could hear Lex weeping. Which made me cry even more. O boy! The spirit confirmed to me that this saving ordience was accepted and he will be a solid member of the Lord's church for the rest of his life! Lex- he is the man!!!

(Sorry it's a bit fuzzy)

 I love you all so much. I am sorry I dont have much time to email more, but please know that I am feeling your prayers. I know this is the Lord's work and I know that His hand is in it. For I could not be here at this time, serving, training two and being happy- extremly happy all at the same time.

 

P.S. MOM- Thank you for the package! It came on my 5 month mark!! HAPPY!
