Hey Family,

This was a GREAT week! I had my first baptism. I couldn’t believe she asked me to baptize her. It was so awesome. I still struggle with the language but I’m trying to keep positive and focused on all of my blessings! I also am learning to be a pretty good cook, so that’s a good thing! The picture of the lizard is one we see all over the place. Also, I had to kill another rat! HAHA! So I’m learning all kinds of life skills from patience to killing rodents. It’s all good! I love you all! Have a great week!

Love,

Elder LeBaron

Family,

It was a great week. Tough, but great. A funny story is when I had to kill the rat in one of the pictures. My comp started to yell like a girl in the other room. When I got there he was pointing towards a closet where we found the beast! I grabbed a broom and chased it down and killed it! It was crazy! I love my companion. He’s working us so hard. We teach so much but I still don’t understand anything that’s being said. It’s tough, but I’ll figure it out! I know the Lord will help me and continues to bless me! I love him so much! Well have a great week!

Love,

Elder LeBaron
