Hola elder Gentry:

Como ha estado soy brandon solo quería saludarlo y pues mas que nada porque ya ni se nada de usted y quería platicar muchas cosas que me han pasado y quiero que me de un consejo primero que nada pues voy a discursar este 17 de octubre de 2010 jaja de la obra misional como ve y ya estoy trabajando en este discurso como ve y pues pues perla, Maria y Raúl ya ni van a la capilla y ya les dije que fuéramos pero dicen que si y ni van jaja lo extraño bastante y extraño de sus consejos y solo quería decirle que como ha estado, como le ha ido por allá ? de verdad lo extraño bastante, también pues agradecerle ya que cuando estuvo aquí no le di las gracias por haberme enseñado estas cosas y espero irme a la misión y que me toque en florida jaja si no como quiera voy a ir a florida un día y espero verlo allá OK jaja y pues decirle también que mi familia le extrañan también le agradece por habernos enseñado el verdadero evangelio de Jesucristo
No sabe cuanto le extrañan y pues espero y este bien y recuerde que debe hacer lo sig: en su misión:
(DyC 4:2) por tanto oh vosotros que os embarcáis en el servicio de dios, mirad que le sirváis con todo vuestro corazón, alma, mente, y fuerza para que aparezcáis sin culpa ante dios en el ultimo día “
OK eso es lo que debe de hacer y eso fue lo que me enseño ah y una cosa si le digo un día voy a llegar a ser animador ok hasta luego lo queremos y lo extrañamos
Atte: brandon y su familia

so even if i came home a week early u still couldnt go ( I had told him in a previous letter that we wouldn't be able to come home when he gets off his mission). but mark and savanna come home on the 30. or even if i changed a week early u still couldnt do it? let me know. this week i talked to a crzy white guy from texas that was searching for gold and was just crazy. he didnt know any spanish. but had a cool country accent. and i talked to a mexican that had one worst than me.lol. but this week was good but we didnt see any success. its cooling down here so it makes me happy... so how are you doing? only 7 weeks left till the baby. i was looking at ur blog and geez they are so big. i think peyton is taller than me. well i hope that things are going good. how is tyler. tell the kids i said hey and they should write their favorite uncle. well i have to go sis. im going to send you guys a copy of a letter that one of my converts sent me. love you guys and we have changes tonight.
