Steven's letter May 17

Dear Family
 Hey how has your week been going this week?  Did you get the
pictures i sent? It sounds like the trip to Idaho was pretty fun.   So
the family got baptized?  Thats awsome.  How many people are in their
family?  Elder Arnold and i have been doing pretty good this week.  We
have been doing a little bit of service, but it wasn't because of the
storms.  We helped a recent convert move.  We have been working a lot
with Temeka's family.  We have been talking to them a lot about how we
want them to all go to the temple and be sealed together as a family.
four of the family are already baptized.  We have been working with
three others trying to get them ready to be baptized.  We are working
with another youger family too.  Tina and Jerry.  They have 4 little
kids too.  All under 5 years old.  They are a really great family.
They are a great family  we found them when we went up and started
talking to Jerry.  He was watching a guy get arrested so we went over
and started talking to him and invited him to come play basket ball.
He ended up coming and bringing his whole family.  They have come to
basketball everyweek since.  They have only come to church once
though.  Tina works all but 2 sundays a week and Jerry doesn't like
bringing 4 little kids to church by himself.  They want to get
baptized on the 4th of june.  Elder Arnold and i love going over and
talking to them.  The members of the ward really love the family too.
Well i hope you are haveing a great week.
Love Elder Marshall
Quote of the week:     “We should learn to be patient with ourselves.
Recognizing our strengths and our weaknesses, we should strive to use
good judgment in all of our choices and decisions, make good use of
every opportunity, and do our best in every task we undertake. We
should not be unduly discouraged nor in despair at any time when we
are doing the best we can. Rather, we should be satisfied with our
progress even though it may come slowly at times.”       Joseph B.
