12 CHICKENS, 2 CATS, and a NAKED LITTLE BOY: October 25, 2010

Dear Family,
We finally got Brother Atche to let us baptise his daughters. Every time I think of him I remember the first time I saw his huge half naked body walking across his yard towards us with 12 chickens, 2 cats and a naked little boy following obediently behind him.  The mission is super awesome.   I really really like it.
Love Y'all
Love Elder Cosby
