...Know ye not that I, the Lord your God, have created all men, and that I remember those who are upon the isles of the sea; and that I rule in the heavens above and in the earth beneath; and I bring forth my word unto the children of men, yea, even upon all the nations of the earth?
2 Nephi 29:7

first letter.

We received our first letter from Sam today. Here are some of the highlights:

"My companion is this big white boy from North Salt Lake. Elder Davies is a funny guy. I love him as my first companion so far. I have a district of people from all over. One from Porto Rico, one from New Zealand and another from Australia. I am hoping to become less shy and these guys help me a lot with a lot of things. It's unreal that I am here right now...but it's awesome. I like it here and am having to teach people in Cebuano (sp? I can't really read his writing...). I am so far behind, it is hard.... On a side note, I have some new nicknames here like Chad's "Jankie". Mine are Jeremy Lin or Elder J-Lin or Elder Jansi. All by my companion. The guy is funny. I can't wait to see everyone again, but my work is not done. Just started and I'm super excited!!! Tell everyone I miss them all. Also, tell Evie not to grow up too fast! I love you guys and miss you a lot! See you in 2 years!"
