Short and Sweet

Dear Fam,

Great to hear from you all as always! This week we had four baptisms(Pedro, Rose, Godwin and Comfort) are other two were ready but for one reason or another we had to move them to the 26th. The people I have met since I have been here are amazing especially Pedro!

So I noticed in the distribution center they sell the Liahona for 30 peswas(=20 cents) So I decided that I will buy the special edition one on the Temple for all of my recent converts. Yesterday I gave two away to Francisca and Pedro and tonight we will give one to Juliana and Rose and all their kids. It has [Personal messages to family.]

Love, Elder L.
