Email Letter - December 17, 2014


Hey everyone sorry it’s been so long, but I want you all to know that I am still alive and that I am doing great out here in the DR.



I am still in Santiago and things are going really good. I am training a kid from Idaho and he is a really good kid and we are doing a lot of really good work together. We’ve got this family that is amazing that we have been teaching and they are amazing. Andres, the husband, was raised in Miami and is super cool, he has had a lot of hard times in life and decided to come to the DR to get away from everything and then met Bielka, his wife, and now they have 2 kids and are really happy together. But we found him one super rainy day huddled under a little tin roof on the side of the road ha-ha. God truly knows how to help the rain become a blessing here, ha-ha. But they really are an amazing family and the other day Andres’s parents were in town and they are totally against us and I got to see the two of them defend their beliefs, and now his parents are participating in our lessons and we were able to answer their questions and explain about Joseph Smith and the Book of Mormon, I know that the Spirit was able to testify to them and that their hearts are slowly being opened to the restored gospel.



I am so happy for the opportunity I have to be here changing the lives of other people. But I love you all and I will write you again soon and I mean it this time ha-ha.
