Week 83

AREA: Tucson—Midvale

COMPANION: Elder Edward

Friends and family,

Summary: This week we contacted some people, had some success, and had
some failure. Its all part of missionary work and what do you know??
Its part of life as well.

Highlight: Crystall was baptized on Saturday and it was beautiful!
Elder Wilson, a missionary in the mission who is a professional cello
player. It amazes me how good he is. The whole performance was done by
memory with his eyes closed! His playing was perfect for bringing the
spirit into the room, preparing for when she was baptized. The spirit
was very powerful and the love in the room was magnificent. All the
people from all over coming together to show their support to Crystall
and all the hard work she has done to make it to that day. Sunday she
was confirmed and we had Sells sacrament after that. While there we
also go two new investigators!

Sorry that this is so short, I promise I will be better next week.

Love,

Elder Smith

Ryan with his first companion, Elder Young... Although, I suppose he's not an Elder anymore.
