Well another good week this week. It seemed to drag just because I was so excited for the call on Sunday. So apparently I have an accent. I didn't even know. My family said they couldn't understand me at times. lol weird... We have a baptism this Saturday I have three investigators who will be getting baptized. We were supposed to have 6 but.. things happen lol. hopefully the other 3 will be getting baptized shortly after. It has been very very hot the last few days. I swear the rain just washes the sun because you know if it rains one day then the next day you will suffer like nothing! it will be so hot the next day. It was good to get some updates about home yesterday. Its weird to hear who is getting married. I'm still too little to have people around my age getting married. I guess i will be 20 in a month geez that's so old.. Hope everyone is getting excited for the summer vacation coming up. I'm jealous i wish i got a summer vacation from the work. haha jk no i love the work. It gets old doing the same thing everyday but you just have to make if fun which is easy to do in Africa. Thanks for all the support from everyone. I will try to send more pictures soon. the computer i would send the pictures from is MIA i dk what happened to it and none of the other computers have memory card readers in them so i will do my best. Sis Squires says that i am looking much healthier so thanks for all the prayers everyone haha. i feel healthy so that's good. I want you all to know how much i love missionary work. I dont know why my heavenly father has trusted me so much to come to this wonderful place with these amazing people and take part in the work here. I love you all so much thank you for the support and the letters. I'm really sorry i have not written back yet (sorry Cammacks and Kaumans and Carrie Heaton and Craig Paxman and everyone else) I will try to do better haha. thanks again.

I really enjoy your blog. I look forward to the posts every week because I am so interested in how you are doing and what it is like to serve a mission in Africa. I know it is hard, but I also know it is rewarding. My favorite part of your letter was:
"I love missionary work. I don't know why my heavenly father has trusted me so much to come to this wonderful place with these amazing people and take part in the work here."
It is so true that Heavenly Father has trusted young men with one of his greatest responsibilities, to help Him bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man. You have been given this charge, and you can and are doing your part to bring this about. Trust in Him. He will never leave you alone in this work. It is His work and He wants you to succeed. You will be blessed for your efforts.
This is Seth. Claudine I just wanted to thank you for your comment. I have been asked to Bear my testimony in Zone Conference on Wednesday and I have been just trying to plan ahead some of the things I will say. I really liked the things you said in your comment so thanks for the help! haha.
