GRATITUDE: January 16, 2012


Dear Family, 
Lately I had the chance to see some of my old investigators (passing in the store or on the street).  It was really cool to see that Sarah Moarii, one of my first baptisms, had gone through the temple and others have callings in the church, active and happy. We have also been gathering eggs in the morning from a chicken that hangs out in our yard and then making omelets. I;m feeling super blessed. I don't really know what else to say besides the work is going well.
Love y'all
Love, Elder Cosby
