Sister Angelina told me that she emailed you and she loved it!! Ha-ha. :)  Sure was nice to hear some comforting words from my MOTHER Sunday afternoon. :) Ha-ha.  He little boy is so darn cute and it kills me not to be able to hold him and play with him... ha-ha, struggled with that my whole mission!  (Feel like a sister missionary sometimes! ha-ha, they always want to hold little babies) Things are going well here in Florida; we are looking TIRELESSLY for people to teach!  We have four main investigators but each one of them has a HUGE problem that is stopping them from progressing... so we are working on each one of them while looking for new people at the same time. Elder Torres is excited and ready to baptize!  Poor guy still hasn't had his first baptism and he wants it so bad!  :)  Can’t blame him, especially seeing that we have four GREAT investigators that WANT to be baptized but CAN’T due to their current decisions.  So we are searching and searching :)  

I am amazed at how driven my family is in the Missionary work!!  I was thinking a lot about the missionary work back home last week because Brother Anderson emailed me and told me that the Spanish branch back home only had 12 people in church the other day and he told me a little about the branch president.  Can’t wait to help out the Mountain View Ward, Spanish Branch, and the Singles ward in Flag :) ha-ha.  Things are going to be awesome!  The things that I am learning in the mission are crazy... Crazy to think about living a life without these lessons learned.  Last week I read McKay´s letters and the only thing I wanted to do was get on a plane, and go to the MTC in Utah, to start another mission!  I relished in his stories and the experiences he is having.  I emailed him but look like he doesn’t have enough time or there are rules against writing.  I truly love the mission and can’t decide which I would choose if given the chance... Go home in November, or Start a new mission... ha-ha. :)  (Mom, I know your answer! hahaha)

Thanks for all the love and stories you show me, Thanks for helping niƱa get baptized!! You guys ROCK!!!

Love,
Elder Reay
