Hey Mom,

I already sent an email to Dad about Sanie's baptism with pictures. As for teaching him about the resurrection, it was great, after we taught him he just said simply "I believe that’s true"
About how I got an extra month added on, When the new wave of missionaries hit, they changed the MTC schedule and that also effected the transfers here so we were basically given the choice of going home 3 weeks early or 3 weeks late. My batch and I chose to go with 3 more weeks.
As for the singles ward, I don’t want to go there that much at all. but what ever.
I love you mom, thanks for everything

Love,
Elder Proctor

This is Sanie, he was baptized this Saturday. He is a humble man and he has the greatest attitude towards life. he asked me to baptize him to do so I had to carry him into the font, even though I was holding his crippled body I felt like the weaker of the two of us. It made me think of the scripture "Inasmuch as ye have done unto the least of them, ye have done it unto me" After he was baptized he bore a powerfully simple testimony. He says his only desire now is to help get his family to come to church. I love this work. Love Elder Proctor

Hello,

This has been a great week, we moved up Brother Sanie's baptism to the 31 of August because he is progressing so well and that day worked better for him and his family. He had his baptismal interview yesterday and our district leader told us how in the interview Sanie was talking about getting his family to join the church. He is a great guy, he has such a great attitude towards life. This week we are going to teach him about resurrection, and how his body will be made whole through the Atonement of Christ. I cant wait to see his reaction.
I love this work.
I love all of you.

Love,
Elder Proctor

Tell mom that I got her package this week, but I haven't received my license yet. That’s crazy about the storm hitting you guys in Utah that wasn't even in the storm trail.
To be honest we didn’t see much of the typhoon our area is far north and we have a mountain range that keeps the big bad storms away. I thought that it would be a funny joke to not write last week but I figured that would be mean haha All is well out here, the work is grand, we are busy and I love it.
I love you dad
