Zac's Latest Letter (Sept 3)

Zac and his new companion, Elder Guzman.Elder Guzman is an awesome baseball player and plans to come to the U.S. to play after his mission.

Hola Everyone
How are you guys doing? So what is new? Well everything is good here in Puerta Plata. We have had a lot of rain lately because another storm came through here but nothing bad at all! Well as you guys know i cant email back to everyone of you so if i dont have your address please send it to me. You can continue to write me and ill just send a letter back to you guys and you can also send me letters. Well everything is going good here in the mission! This week we met a new family named Francisco and Ingris. This family is awesome. Every time we come over they tell us that they feel something good. I love when you have the spirit on your side! ha ah We watched the movie The Testaments with them and they said that they really liked it a lot. They are even reading the Book of Mormon and praying. They are really awesome. Well this week we also had interviews with President. That was awesome and we had a good talk about the church and the Priesthood. Well today we went to the beach and played football in the sand. It was awesome and we had a lot of fun. Then we went back to the apartment and ate a little Mangu! Me and Elder Guzman are getting along really good. Sometimes we cant understand what each other is saying but we are way close friends and we have fun and work hard. We are also teaching 4 brothers and they are really interested in the church also. The oldest one wants to serve a mission and be like us so that is pretty cool! We arent in our usual internet center because the power went out (It tends to do that a lot here) so i will send a pic of me and Elder Guzman next week! Well all is well here! Thank you for all your support and love! I hope everyone is doing good!

Love

Elder Rigby

More Bear Lake Fun!!

Kyle on the 4-wheeler. What a stud!!Madi and I kayaking.
Troy and Wendy, our gracious hosts. Thanks!
Kyle and the cuties.
The whole gang. We love them all.
Last weekend we went up to Bear Lake again with friends in our neighborhood. We had a BLAST!!!! We stayed at the Hanson's cabin and spent Saturday at the beach. We had a ton of food up there and all of it was so good. I was so mad at Zane because he thought that it would be funny to come out of the bathroom with the sling-shot on in front of everyone. It wasn't funny at all!!!! I about killed him. (Another proud parent moment.) The speedos that Jon, Zane, and BJ had didn't seem quite so bad after that but they were still pretty revealing. Haha. We are so thankful for all the friends that we have and for the Hanson's for having us up at the cabin. We had so much fun!!! Thanks.
