Hey everyone, sorry but this letter will have to be very short. I finally got to see the Fort in Ferrol. It is a bit of a trip so it took most of the day.  So in that case, I don´t have time to write a nice good letter. 

On the me front, I am doing well.  My health has been much better this past week.   I got some good meds from the Hospital that put me back on my feet.  That was a great blessing.  President as well can´t believe the things we have to go through up here.  Well Elder G is doing good as well.  He has been better since last week, but we still have to take it slow.  It´s really hard for me to take it slow, but it´s what I need to do.  I have to say it was hard to keep a smile on my face these past couple of weeks, but I kept advice I got when I was in Madrid in my mind all the time.  This sister from my ward told me this.  Elder Laubaugh, first off, don´t lose those eyes, people get lost in them, Second, don´t lose that smile, people just melt when they see that smile.  Never lose it.  Thirdly, work, don´t ever stop.  I have been keeping that in mind.  That smile was hard to put on this past week, really hard.  When everything was going against me, I kept it on.  When I was just in pain, just wanting to go home, sleep in my own bed, hug you all, I kept it on.  Just a smile kept me going.  I´m glad I smiled during that time, my mind changed when I did.  It was nice, just to smile, be happy, not sad. 

Well Mom this is for you, well all of you.  I sent you some advice for my talk but I have to say I just felt I needed to tell you some more of my testimony.  

 

Life is hard, when everything piling up on me, all the area work, health issues and just everything else.  I just knew that the Lord was with me.  I know that My Savior lives, that he loves me that he cares for me.  The reason I love Isiah 41:10 so much is because it says I am with thee.  God is with us, always.  In this work I have felt his love for me, my investigators, and the members, every day.  I want to say that he loves you too, that He is there for us.  I know that the Book of mormon is true.  I love you all I need to go.

 

I love you!!
