Hoooola mi queridisima Familia,

Thank you so much for all of your letters. it sounds like home is just bombing with excitement. I love you all so much. I am so happy that everyone will be living in sj. I cant help but think in the future now i really want to live in the promise land of sj with my own family. Man kirsty you are about ready to have this baby. Its going to be awesome and wierd to meet two new babies when i get home. Sophie and bridges:) Grampa Wilhelm truely is the sweetest man. it is too bad that he has to deal with this ballon thingy. it was just this last week that i was reading our4 family history stories at night before i would go to bed. And i read some of Gpas stories. he is a wonderful person.

Well we recieved some pretty exciting news here in mission Quito. It has been quite some time now that we have been hearing that there will be a mission conference in august. They have been teasing us kind of through out the weeks giving little bits of information. First we heard that there would bge 3 70s coming. Then they tould us it would be 3 70s and an apostle. Finally this week they anounced who will be coming.......Elder Jeffrey R Holland will be coming to visit us and 3 70s:) We all are getting so excited. Thats not all of it. We will be having the mission conference on a saturday. Then on sunday elder holland will be coming to los chillos for our stake conference. I hope i will be around for that because we are ending another change. So i will hear if i have changes or no this next sunday on the 13th.

We are wokring hard her in sangolqui. its seems like there has been a lot of opostion working against us but we have seen alot of progress also. We were visiting wht hna laura this week. We were explaing a little bit more about the doctrine of baptism. We were super into it using scriptures and bearing our testimonies then hna laura stopped us all of a sudden. and said When i get baptised my baptism dress cant only come donw to my knee. That will not work. i need you two to find one that will go down to my ankles. If not i will have to make one. hahah this lady is so cute. She has one of the strongest testimonies about jesus christ that i have every seen. It is so wonderful to see her desires and excitement for baptism.
I just want you guys to know that i love you so much. i am so grateful for the gospel of jesus christ. i know that he lives.

Love,
Hna Wilhelm
