Week of April 11, 2011

Here's Corban's email received April 11, 2011. Corban's Email: "Just thought I would let everyone know this week that I have my first baptism. It is with three brothers, one 15 other 14 and the other is almost 9. I have the opportunity to baptize one of them. I'm really pumped and looking forward to this weekend, but have a lot of work ahead of me this week. Have one week left of my first companion exchange. Sad to say that I might not be in the same area again. But I'm happy to go where I need to be. Things are going well here. Nothing too bad. Had some bad wind the other day and had some extreme sol the other day too. The sun is the hottest part here because it is so strong, I never thought I would be so grateful for shade(sombro). Believe me you need it here, especially with no ac to cool you down. Other than that things are great. Might get to eat my first pizza in months today, looking forward to that as well. Gotta do all my laundry today, and let me tell you it will take probably 3 hours to do it. Gotta love hand washing. Just thought I would let you all know that I love you all and hope that you are all doing well. I know that things are difficult, but our trails are what make us grow in this life. Hope that things aren't too hard at this point in time. Time is going by quickly here in Bolivia and I know that I will be home in no time. i hope to see you all soon. oh btw thank you Dakota for the letter Thursday. He was the first to send one here. I'll send picks next week. love you all
Elder Corban Schafer"

Take care,
Sandy
