Taylor Swift with my BFF!!!

I am so lucky!! My amazing friend Breba found us tickets to Taylor Swift at the last minute and boy was it worth it!! Rhegan and I loved the concert, I am so glad that I knew the words to most of the songs, cuz the audience sang along the whole time. It was a fabulous night!! Thanks Julya and Breba for letting us tag along.

Earthquake!!!!!

Hey Fam,
Wow, sounds like all is super well at home. Tell Casey congradulations for me. It´s been so awesome hearing all the great experiences you guys are having. Things are going good here too. We had 2 more baptisms this week and they were great. My companion and I are getting along well and I´m really enjoying things here. O, I also enjoyed that earthquake we had here. Of course, I had never felt one, so I was super stoked when it happened. We were on divisions so I was with another American in his area and we were eating when it happened. It´s a pretty cool fealing. But for the people here it was pretty serious. They said it was the strongest one in long time, and everyone was freaked out thinking about the one in 1985. So ya, that´s about all. Things are going good as usual. Always remember to be humble and recognize the hand of the Lord in our lives. Sometimes we think we can do it all on our own. Something a speaker told us in the MTC was that the moment we think we can do it on our own, the Lord lets us, and we fail. We always have to search his help in all things, and remember to look to him even when things are going good. I love you guys. Love, Rees P.S. 11 Months!

Swine Flu Can't Stop the Work!!!

Hey FAM!!
How´s everyone at home? Sounds like everyone is great. Anyways, this week was AWESOME. We baptized 6 people this week. A family of 5 and the daughter of a lady we baptized a couple weeks ago. The family is awesome. Both the parents shared their testimonies after the baptism and it was amazing. The mom can´t read but she said she knew the Book of Mormon was true because she could feel it when we taught her. It was such a great experience. It really is surprising to see how many people can´t read here. We should really be grateful for the great schooling we have and that we know how to read. It really is a huge blessing. Anyways, this week was good. The swine flu junk is cooling down. I really think it was all a lie. But since we don´t see the news, who knows. They just keep changing all the information and making up new things. But the people seem to have noticed and it´s basically back to normal. So ya, that´s about it. Can`t believe it´s already May and I´ll be calling next week. Can´t wait to talk to everyone and hear how you´re doing. That´s so awesome that Casey accepted to get baptized. Isn´t it just amazing to see how the Book of Mormon can change people? Anyways, I love you guys and appreciate all your support. Love, Rees
