How are you all doing this fine week?
News for the week. My boys Hanser and Leito were baptized! Both of them are doing well. I baptized both of them. A bit about Hanser and Leito. Hanser is a super smart kid. He`s studying computers in the university. Hanser, Leito, and Yoann the older brother all live together in one house. All three of them are sons of Confesora. And they all couldn`t be more different. Hanser is the studious type. Yoann is hilarious. He loves listening to the word of God. And Leito has desire and goes to church. He loves to make fun of me. I`m the tall white American that doesn`t know the language like my companion. I really hope that both of them make it.
This Saturday, we`re going to baptize a kid named Roberto. He`s twelve, lives across the street from a super active family with kids his age and knows more than everybody else we are teaching. He`s a really good kid. I assume he`ll serve a mission and be a strong member. I will tell you all about the baptism next week.
We had a great lesson last night in the house of Fledida. My Spanish was in good form. I taught all about the Book of Mormon and the significance of the Book of Mormon. And then Fledida shared her testimony of the Gospel. She told us that she had visited a lot of churches in her day and the most peaceful church that teaches the best values is our church. Then she said a prayer to see us off. It was good.
We`re going to the temple tomorrow. All in Spanish. I`m really excited. It should be a good experience. Early too! We have to be in Azua ready to go at 6:30 am.
In other news, I had 2 new pairs of tailored pants made with money from Grandma Teedie. A dark brown and a pinstripe navy blue. They look dang good!
Love,
Elder Phil
