Dusty's Email -- 01/11/2010

Familia,

It’s great to hear from you guys and that all is well. Thanks for the letters. I’m excited to see how the playroom will turn out, now that it’s going to be dad’s office, should be pretty fancy.

This last week went well. The last couple days it’s been really, really cold. I’m glad that Mike sent me this sweater, because it really keeps me warm. It’s just been cold and rainy here, but the week went really well. We had a baptism this last week of a man named Alfredo. He is one of those guys that you never think would do it.

We baptized his brother a couple weeks ago, and then we started to teach him. It’s amazing to see the changes that he has made to be able to be baptized. The first time we saw him, he was in all black, smoking, and had this big piercing in his ear. But now he’s completely different. He has given up smoking, he dresses differently. He refers to the Book of Mormon as a magical book, because it changed his life. The person that he has become is such a difference.

But all is well, yesterday we got the call for transfers and Elder Vargas and I are staying together another 6 weeks, which is fine, because he works really good and we get along awesome. So we are expecting a lot more success these next 6 weeks.

Gotta run. This week is going to be a good one! But we’ll talk in a week.

Bye,

Elder Howard
