To my family
Dear Family,
Things are going well. We had a baptism on Saturday and a confirmation on Sunday. It went well. The man that was baptized is an awesome Jamaican. He joked that I keep telling him that Joseph Smith is a true prophet but he already knows! I had the opportunity to perform the ordinance. We had 5 people at church yesterday and 4 people are planned to be baptized Saturday and Sunday. I get to work with Haitians also. There is a Haitian member that comes out with us almost every night. If we don't come to pick him up sometimes he calls us. He is earning money for his family in Haiti. The work is going well. I am so happy that Nathan and Maggie have a new son.
Love,
Elder Mason

Dear Everyone,
Hi!!! It is good to have time to email my family once again. The Nassau is nice. It is Eastern time here. By the way, on my calls next Sunday, I can only talk to Mom and Dad.
Did I ever tell you that I have a new companion. Well, yes, I do. Elder Sizemore went back to Jamaica and became President Graff's assistant. My new companion is Elder Martinez.
On Thursday we had Zone leader council. It took place in Jamaica; however, we had the opportunity to listen to some of it through Video Conferencing. Here is were it gets interesting. Zone leader council happened on Thursday. We got a message from Elder Sizemore on Saturday night and we then called Jamaica. President Graff was honorably released on Friday night, then on Saturday he went back home. Elder Coleman of the Area Presidency is temporaraly filling in. I did not expect it. I am getting a new mission President.
It will be good to hear from you next week.
Love,
Elder Mason

Dear Family,
I am doing really well. We had a baptism yesterday. She came to the church expecting to be baptized on Saturday. We had to teach her the rest of the lessons and she was interviewed on Sunday morning and baptized after church. The couple is still going to be baptized this Saturday. I had some really good experiences that I have been learning from. I have realized that I constantly need to be prepared and I need to constantly think about how I can be prepared. Mom, the picture that I sent was in President and Sister Ockey's duplex. It is similar to our place.

Dear Family,
How are you? I am doing very well. There is an awesome couple that is going to be baptized on April 24. We had a confirmation yesterday. This week went very well. There were 8 investigators at church yesterday. We are teaching many good people.
This week I saw the Lord's hand in the work. I was on a split with a member and I stopped and talked to a lady with a stroller. After talking to her, I found out that she happened to be a member from Jamaica. What were the changes? They really lead us to her so that we could help her.
I really do know that this church is true. I have felt the spirit many times this week. The Lord leads to those who are willing to following him.
Love,
Elder Dan R. Mason
