Hello my wonderful, amazing, awsome cool, really cool family. how is everyone. thank you so much for all the Happy Birthdayīs. MOM the website is awsome, thank you, did i ever tell you how much i love ya. oh and Happy Birthday to you as well. do you have any plans? how is summer going? today is going to be exciting, we have a zone activity, we are all going bowling, pretty cool huh, they planned the activity without even knowing it was my B-day. oh dad i am feeling pretty old, or what. ha,ha,ha. and marisa i agree, it is amazing that i have made it this long. thanks again for all the letters. well this week was pretty awsome, we had a baptism on saturday. we have been teaching a boy,19 yrs old,his parents were baptised last month but he didnīt want anything to do with the missionaires. when i got here we were still teaching the parents the recent convert lessons and we started to teach him also, he had long hair, peircings and was kind of a rebel. after a while we started to notice a change in his atitude, then he took out the earings and last week he decided that he needed to cut his hair. we visited him on thrusday and he told us that he wanted to be baptised on saturday, we were so excited. his dad had just recieved the aaronic priesthood so on saturday he was able to baptise his son. it was such a neat experience, to be able to watch as his dad baptised him. sunday was also really neat. we woke up early and left early so that we could pass by everyones house. everyone that had told us they would go to church ended up not going so we did a lot of walking but we arrived in the last house, a woman named Edna who will be baptised this saturday. she was ready to go and to our surprise four of her grandchildren were ready to go also but the cool this was that her husband was also ready to go to church with her. since we have started teaching her he has not wanted to talk to us and didnīt want to go to church, but because of the amazing exemple of his wife he went to churhc with us yesterday.i learned that through our faith, prayers and examples anything can happen, so always remember to keep those who need your example in your prayers.it was pretty awsome. well thatīs about it for this week, thanks again for everything, i love all of you sooo much LOVE ELDER TAFOYA
