Jacobs Letter today:~Hello!
I'm glad to see that everyone is doing well. Yes we have another baptism coming up this week on the 30th. So everyone please pray that Louis Henderson will continue in the the faith and do it; and that it will go according to plan. Also I've officially found like $4.00 so far on the ground out here: 2 dollar bills and and a bunch of change.This place is weird. On every corner is a
church or a Chinese Restaurant. I've seen a dead armadillo and a nutria rat (Also called a swamp beaver see the pictures!) those things are HUGE! Also, I saw a live Raccoon for first time that was weird, Elder Reese scared it off before i had a chance to take a pic of it. It ran off into the bushy area next to our house well I'm glad that people are sending me packages so I can get fatter I love it :-) 
I notice how it's getting easier all the time to preach the gospel to people. When you put your first foot forward the Lord is going to help you move the next one along. Hopefully I'll get the hang of that and start running :-). I love you all so much I wish I could say more but Elder Reese is waiting on me so I've got go BYEEEE!!! -Elder Colvin Aerial view of Bonnie:

Hi family,
It's raining again. I love you all......and the packages.....:) SO, we are now going to start teaching a family with 7 kids! Isn't that cool. The father came up to us in church and said He and his wife were thinking of becoming baptised. So....could
everyone pray for the B----- family...and also the S------- who are like my
second family. Poor Larry keeps having problems with blood-sugar
levels...they had to call the paramedics for him two days ago. But, he said
he would be baptised once he's been to church three times(that is the
requirement) but, things keeps happening to where he can't come..so please
pray for him. He loves us like daughters. It is such a great family....when y'all come and visit me in Nov.'08, I want y'all to meet them.
Anyways, we are working with a lot of less-actives here......Zion is a bit different out here:) But, one of the less-active families we visited came to church on Sunday!! They said they wanted to start getting back to church!! way way cool!!
you know what is also funny, no one has invited us for dinner yet haha...oh
well Guess what Sis. Chapman and I had to speak in church yesterday...you know
what I have spoken in church every single month since April!! Anyways I
spoke about the restoration and it went well.
Anyways, we've been working reallly hard and teaching like mad! Haha some
50 something year old guy asked me to be his wife two days ago. Well I
better go.... Love you all and keep the love comin'
