Querida familia,

   Wow, wow,wow what a termendous week and weekend it has been. oh much I always enjoy each and every ones emails and letters. it brings much joy and exciment to see and hear how each of  the wonderful brothers are doing and to see how much they have grown.
   Jacob how amazing and wonderful was your songs. At times I ask myself is that jacob or david archileta. HAha! Way to go brother. Keep up the great work and keep sharing your wonderful talents of singing, love, goofiness, and luaghter with all. Always look to befriend those around you and the brothers. They look to you. 
   Erick thank you so much for wonderful email and fotos. You are always so good at remembering to write and I can{t believe that you will soon be finishing the 8th grade and on to the big leagues of high school. Enjoy every moment of your 8th grade and keep up the splendid job of always helping those around you. you have been one of which has recieved many talents and it is your responsiblity to alway s remember to share them and helping others develop theres. I remember when I was in 8th grade and I met my bestest friend skyler shummway for the first time. HE was a very shy and not very well known person, but me and him just clicked and he was always willing to stick up for what was right. Through the many years of being friends he has taught me much of the talents that I needed to improve on and me to him. Erick you are doing wonderful, keep up the great work you are doing and help all those around you to always feel welcome.  There are many who look to you and through your obedience, positive attitud always, and friendship, you will be able to help many to expand there talents.Thanks for your letter erick and know that you are awesome. These things also apply to all jacob, james and spencer. 
   James and spencer I loved the funny video that mom sent to me of you two on the rocking horse at the park. HAhaHA! you to are amazing and like  mom says it reminds me alot of me and josh back in the days.
   General conference was incredible, filled with each talk truly divine revelation to apply and live in our lives. Some of my favorite parts of conference was the funny expierence that he had with his old primary teacher, who had his gran daughter call up president monson and said to please call up tommy monson...he will know what to do...Haha! What a sweet and tender message he convayed to those who have lost loved ones, or have seen difficulty and tribulations such as sickness, deepresion and grief. He bore a powerful witness that the lord knows and loves us. He knows are sorrows and will bear our griefs. He is the counsilor and redeemer of the world.  There is not a problem or diffculty that he can not overcome. 
    I know that these things are true, that the lord loves each and everyone of his childern so much and wants them to be happy. This past week we saw miracles as 7 people and 1 familia were baptized. Ever since a few weeks ago when president  collado came to puerto cabezas for a conference he promised all of the missionaries that if we put in all our efforts to be completely obediente and serve with all our heart might mind and strength and work hard in involving the memembers in the process of baptizingm , he promised that every week we would see baptisms. AT first I had doubts that it could be possible but the lord humbled me and after much affliction and work, the words of president collado are being brought to pass. The work of the lord is expanding and increasing in all the world. And it is incredib le to behold.  
   It has truly been a miracle to see. There was much exicment and enthusiams as we involded the ward leaders and memembers in particapating in the baptisms of these faithful childern familias of god.
   I love you guys so much,and am so greatful for your prayers and support. 

Elder Boyd
