Oyyeeee so sorry that the internet sucks royally... i had a sweet email and sweet story and all written and ready to go... and then all of the sudden... thanks to awesome internet here... POOOOF! like magic it was gone! psshhh.... but hey... just one more test of life right!?!? ha

anyway. story quickly... hmmm... i got a letter in snail mail with some pics and a lil story about some rocks being thrown at us and how we are protected by the lord... but something else... hmm... ok something quick about how much people can change... remember Juan? yup... basically he and his wife look walk into the church looking like they run a tattoo shop,(cause they do...). But before that... juan was basically a druglord mob boss that turned heads when he walked into a club with 5 different women on each arm and people got out of the way for fear of what would happen if they didnt move... basically what you see in the movies... he had Money, women, power, and could do whatever he wanted whenever he wanted without anyone ever saying a word. And today, juan is a LITTLE different... he has 3 less houses and only 1 car and a motorcycle, and lives in a chalete with his wife and 4 kids (1 of them a stepdaughter) that we hope will soon be getting baptized to be sealed with her parents in a few months for time and all eternity. the new juan is now waiting to see if he gets paid by the government or not becuase he is unable to work for what happened in the war. (bomb went off by his head and now has a world of problems...) BUT! ever sense he changed his life and joined the church, his health problems have almost gone away compared to what he had before... before he was in the hospital almost every week for something bad, now he is much better off and tells it that way. "ya i felt cool and like the movies when i lived that life... but i was never once near as happy as i am now with so many less problems and a family that i know i can be together with for ever..." is what juan told mariah his daughter the other night in a lesson with her.

Although still a little rough around the edges in some places, Juan and his family are basically a NEW family and different type of people now. ANd they tell us they wouldnt have it any other way. you really can see the happiness that they have now in they´re lives and cant wait to be sealed. mariah still has some doubts... but says she wants to be with her family forever and with time will soon be with them =) so thats my short story for now... and just remember that no matter how a person make look on the outside and sometimes by the way they talk... they really still can be amazing people with amazing testimonies and experiences.

but ya not much more time... but now how much i lov eyou and ill try and write some more stories and send some more pics soon! sorry couldnt give you more now! the letter with pics and sd card should get there soon! let me know when you get it!

thanks so much for all you all do! cant wait to here from you all soon! love yal! muuuuuaaaaahhhhh!!!elder jack zach pitts pittsie
