Letter from a member in Washington

Hi there,


You don't know me but I know your son, Elder Casselman. He is currently serving in our ward and my husband is the Ward Mission Leader. Because of his calling we have the blessing of having the missionaries in our home on a fairly regular basis. Typically twice a week. I love having your son in our home and I can't say that for every missionary that graces my door.


I want you to know that I am TOTALLY impressed with Elder Casselman. I met him on his first day from the MTC at about 9:30pm. He was really tired and already had a good story to tell from his first day. His attitude was positive even though you could tell he wasn't really sure what was going to happen next.


Since then I've attended 2 baptisms where he has spoken and sat in on a lesson that he helped teach. His testimony is amazing. When he speaks the spirit is so strong. On Saturday during his talk my 4 year old daughter started to cry softly. I asked her if she was okay and she told me she was really happy. I know it was the spirit in the room while your song shared his testimony of the restoration of the church. It was beautiful.


I just wanted to let you know I think you've done a good job raising a rock of an Elder. Take care,


Dedra Cheney
