The Work is Great!

Dear Capell Family,
I am glad to hear all is well. There are a few things I hsould let you know. Yesterday, March 4, 2012, I was sustained and set apart to be the teachrew for every second Sunday in the First Quorum of Elders. I give my first lesson this upcoming Sunday. I also gave an immediate preparation talk today in district meeting. Also, another note, during the last Young Missionary Fireside, Brother Lloyd K. Newell, the person who speaks at Music and the Spoken Word, spoke to the missionaries at Theater 4 in the North Visitors Center.
The work is going great in everything, except with genealogy right now, because I have hit a "wall." It will pass eventually, but for now, I am working "sideways."
I wrote in my study journal 3 times today. I will send what I can, as prompted by the Spirit. I have also started digitizing my mission journal. As of tomorrow, I should be at about the first week of January of 2012.
It always overjoys me me when I get a letter -- no matter how boring it sounds to you. Please write!!!
I have to go for now but I will tell you that the pictures attached are from a Bible scene of David and Goliath from 1 Samuel 17:49. The snowmen in the picture were made by Elder Anderson, Elder McAfee, and myself.
I love you all and hope to hear from you soon.
