Letter to Pres. Leavitt:

Thanks so very much for given us the opportunity to be involved with these missionary musical firesides. They are such spiritually power evenings. We are grateful for the blessing of getting our computer fixed/replaced so that we could continue in our temple responsibilities. God does hear and answer prayers. We have a grandson getting ready to submit his papers for this summer. He also is musically talented, playing piano and organ(has had an opportunity to play on the tabernacle organ for a few minutes) and bells, besides singing.
 Time is going so very fast, we really don't want our mission to end, but know that our family looks forward to our return. And we hope  and pray that there will be more missions in our future. In our Family Home Evening group tonight we discussed what it means to sustain our leaders. That it also means that we have to sustain or (endure faithfully) in our faith and testimony so that we can uphold and be there for our leaders. We need each the prayers of each other to endure the challenges of these last days.
I'm reading conference addresses already and learning so much as I ponder on the message that our leaders shared with us for General Conference.

Thanks for the wonderful talks that you and Sister Leavitt gave last night- Sis. Calvert and Elder Weibe also did such a wonderful job. Our sabbath both in the Cole Harbor Ward and at the fireside were all very spiritually uplifting.
