Part of his recent letter.

"Well, I forgot to tell you that things are a LOT different in this new apartment and area...a lot because Lambourne was and is a dominator of conversations...so I was kind of the second man, but I already knew I could play the first man...well, I came here and realized how that work...we have a lot of young missionaries...i've actually been out the longest in my district, but since I've been here i've taken that leadership role to heart and the things president has told me. I just feel it family...like it's just there, I love these guys, i'm SO realy with them and loving but strict at the same time...it's something I can't explain and theres a balance there that EVERY leader has to find!! And it's a great joy to be able to help someone get better in this great calling...so just a lot has been different and i'm so excited to continue."
