p.s.s. one quote that came to me this previous week..I LOVE IT.
   "words may sway the heart to change, but living the words will bring us back to God"

The above is part of his email sent this past week. Along with this new address Elder Probert was called to be a Zone Leader. He describes to us many opportunities he has had to teach several people the gospel. In his area things are moving fast, he has felt the urgings to strive for committing people to live the gospel and feels that he and the people have been blessed exceedingly. Several baptisms have taken place and renewed commitment has ocurred with less active members. He expresses how much he loves the work We as a family are impressed with his growth and sincere desire to be of service to others as he expresses a great deal of love for us also.

"I sought myself
Myself I could not see
I sought God and He eluded me
I sought my brother and there I found all three"

Mission Pictures - Do they eat well?











Since Elder Probert has been in Kingsland he has written some very encouraging letters. He is finding great success in teaching and has had several investigators decide to be baptized. He writes his testimony to his family in his last letter which I leave below;
"I felt SOO much care and love for the family that you cannot even comprehend..you guys are incredible and are the biggest examples in my life. I am so grateful for you and all the things you've done for me. I pray for you everyday and am so grateful that we all have embraced the gospel with full purpose of heart. I can feel a change in the family..an increased love towards one another and a greater desire to serve God. Keep this in your hearts and continually strive to live the gospel of Jesus Christ to it's fullest degree. Be content with the gospel and it's principles and ordinances(stole that from dad)...don't seek for more or less...i've done that, and you just get confused and lost...the gospel is simple, and as we live it, we will feel the love of our Savior feel our souls and a greater sense of belonging and self worth will come into our lives as well as joy beyond comprehension. Love you family..and I love this gospel with all my heart. It is SOO TRUE. Everything about it fills me up with gladness and I am grateful for the opportunity I do have to be out here on a mission. May the Lord be in our hearts always as we build up His kingdom here on earth.
Love, Elder Probert
