Dear family and friends,

Wow, well it sounds like it was quite the week for Brady this week. I guess he just wanting to get his bike up in the trailer... cant blame him for that haha Its good that that kid came by and found him and that he has got the cast now and that he his doing good now. It also sounds like you guys have a lot of fruits and vegetables from the harvest this year, its good to hear that she produced this year even with all the heat and no rain. So I am glad to hear that things are going good back home and that you all are enjoying life. Well, this week was a pretty awesome week, we saw a lot of progress in the branch. First off, on Saturday president worked with us the whole day, we used half of the day to visit our investigators and half of the day to visit the less active people in the branch. Well on Sunday it payed off, we had about 60 people there and there was 9 priesthood holders and then after church president had a meeting with 5 other priesthood holders that have been reactivated and now we are going to have activities almost everyday of the week. Which will be really good to keep the members motivated and to invite nonmembers so things should keep getting better and better every week. At least the attitude has changed in the branch and the members have even told us that they can feel the difference, so to be honest with you all i was pretty stoked and really happy yesterday to see the progress. Also, we still have Claudia and she is getting prepared for her baptism the 15th she said that she has quit drinking coffee and she is just really excited to get baptized and tonight we are going to watch together forever with her and teach her about temples and eternal families so we are pretty excited with how much changes she has made in her life and really she is going to be really strong when she gets baptized. Anyways, life is just rolling along here we are having a lot of fun and the time is going by too fast the Lord is working miracles here in Barahona and we are hoping that with his help we can see more miracles happen. Anyways I love you all and I hope you have a good week this week.
