Letter---January 13, 2010

Well I'm still down here in Bogalusa. The cold weather is great. it gets to 14 degrees down here. I'm still serving with Elder Hansen till the end of January. Last Sunday we got to watch Ann Clark get baptized. Her brother was so happy for her. We are currently working with her daughter and hopefully she will come around. The people down here are already starting to get excited for carnival season. We have a few other investigators who are progressing slowly and hopefully they will decide to kick there habits and convert. Its great being down here in the branch. its nice having so many friendly people.

Love Elder Jeppsen

Here I am in a new area and with a new companion. I am now in Bogalusa, LA. My companion is Elder Hansen. He is from Idaho Falls. We are co-senior companions. He loves basketball more than anyone out here and keeps up with them everyday.
So far we don't have much going on out here. We are working with a mother and daughther and they seem to be working towards baptism. It is looking good. I have really been enjoying it out here. The branch is really good. I also like having my Zone Leader as one of my best friends out here on the mission. It is a nice plus.
I love hearing from all of you back home. Keep writing!
Love,
Elder Jeppsen
(Kasey also sent some pictures and we will be posting those soon)

Kasey is doing well and is staying busy and working hard. Here is a quick letter he sent me this week:


Well this week we taught Melody's mother and she felt the spirit and finally understands why she wants to be babtized so now she is letting her do that; As well as she accepted the Book of Mormon and is reading it. She is working toward baptism. We have James Simmons and his wife taking the lessons and they are progressing very much and loving what they learn. Also we have Sister Renosa, still being the spiritual giant that she is to her family. Hopefully her husband decides to give up his drinking problem and get baptized so he can help out their family. If you wanted to write Sis Renosa I bet she would love that. Thats how the work is here in Vicksburg... moving forward.... its so nice to be apart of it. Thanks for helping. Love Elder Jeppsen
