I'm doing great!  Sarah and Richard (our investigator) have a date for their marriage, November 16th and shortly after he will be getting baptized!  Matt has been baptized and I spoke on the Holy Ghost and on Baptism.  The spirit was very strong!  There were only about 10 people, maybe even less there, but it was nice and peaceful.  I'm excited for Matt and his family!

Being a District Leader, I'll be honest, isn't really what I was expecting any time soon and I was a little overwhelmed, okay very overwhelmed to get the call.  Everything is working out though and it's a lot easier than I thought it would be.  I'm over my area King George, 2 other Elders, 4 Sisters and a senior couple who I have not yet met.  I still have Elder Bowen and it's awesome!

Wow, I got pretty emotional when you told me President Perrins passed away.  He is a great inspirational leader!  I remember when he interviewed me to be a Deacon!  He took time to get to know me and to establish a friendship.  He will be missed a lot.  He's a wonderful man.

Yea, you can send me videos, it is okay, ha ha.  I can't wait to see them!  As well as the pictures!!!  Oh and yes we have a Wal Mart close by.

So, here is what has been filling our plate and will be for awhile.  Sarah just took her cousin in who is trying to detox from herroine.  It is a rough, hard and painful process.  We have been able to give him a blessing and have been able to pray with them.  We have never done this before and Sarah has no experience in it either.  Please pray for him.

Love you all!
