"So it's Friday my first P-day & the internet is down so I can't email!!! It's so dumb. But I am having a great time. My companions name is Elder Hodson. He is a good guy..."
"I have only been here for 2 1/2 days & it feels like a week. A good week but still a week."
"We are all really good friends already..."
"The Spirit is strong here...that's what comes from being dressed up and doing personal study like 4 hours a day & class for another 6 hours a day. It's way different than I expected though. Everything we try and do is based almost completely on the Spirit, what we learn, what we teach, what we say, Everything!"
"You are all in my prayers and in my heart."
