Dear Elder Lutze,
We pray for your safety and success! We hope the last two weeks have brought many miracles!
Our trip was a blast! We swam with the dolphins,
watched an incredible Rhythms of the Night show with amazing acrobatics, dance and fire, zip lined upside down and almost lost my phone in the jungle, and sailed 
and snorkeled 
in Cabo. We ate lots of food and relaxed in cabanas on the ship. Rachael and I did the ropes course and the Sky Ride.

I love this quote about what it means to be a disciple!
Elder L. Tom Perry of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles further explained: “The following has been written about discipleship: “‘The word disciple comes from the Latin [meaning] a learner. A disciple of Christ is one who is learning to be like Christ—learning to think, to feel, and to act as he does. To be a true disciple, to fulfill that learning task, is the most demanding regimen known to man. No other discipline compares … in either requirements or rewards. It involves the total transformation of a person from the state of the natural man to that of [a] saint, one who loves the Lord and serves with all of his heart, might, mind, and strength’ (Chauncey C. Riddle, ‘Becoming a Disciple,’ Ensign, Sept. 1974, 81)” (in Conference Report, Oct. 2000, 77; or Ensign, Nov. 2000, 61).
3 Nephi 5:13 Behold, I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I have been called of him to declare his word among his people, that they might have everlasting life.
I love you!
Mom
