Hi again friends and family! We had another good week this week with dad working on projects and me working on some new historical sites. I got to work in the post office and Lyon's Drug store and the Family Living Center. We also went to the temple this week. It is so beautiful. The bottom floor is a replica of the original room where they held their church meetings. They don't use that part when you go through the endowment. They have four different rooms you go through with wall paintings as part of the ceremony. They are in pioneer style, but homey and elegant. There is such a spirit there especially when you learn about how much they sacrificed to build their temple. The picture of the sunset is close to our house, we walk down to the river to see it often. Today we had an Easter program at church with a missionary choir and then Zone Conference this evening with instruction from the Mission Pres. We continue to practice for our musical programs. Everything is so much fun because we get to know all the other missionaries and share everything with them. It is inspirational to learn all the history here and the great work and faith of these people. We went over to Quincey on p day to shop as there is not much here in Nauvoo to shop in. We send our love to you all. Take care and be well and happy! Love Mom & Dad, Robert & Susan

I loved reading about how your mission is getting into full swing! The kids have been excited to hear about what you've been doing. Mark was so happy to get to talk last night. We're so proud and hope the people there know what gems they have in the both of you. We can't wait to come visit. We're planning for the last week of July, we'll get into the details with you later. We love and miss you! Melanie, Mark & kids
