Hello!
So this week was just another normal week. Work, work, work.  We´ve been working in an area that takes a bit of walking to get to, but it has good people.  Sometimes it's sad because you meet an elect, they pray on the spot, receive revelation that it's true, then they won't commit to doing anything about it. So that's been the story of this week.  We did have an adventista of the 7th day at church though yesterday!   But ya its tricky getting people to commit...
The other day we knocked a street and literally at every house there was a snake! (a girl that comes to hug you, all that stuff...)  so yeah, that was really interesting!  I guess we´ll see what happens ha ha.  We taught some of the people on that street, and some of the families were interested and receptivo. That's how the work is going right now... Finding good people that just don't seem to commit!
It sounds like you guys had a good week!!!  Thanks for all the great pictures!  It looks like the seminary graduation was a major success!  Ha ha, and yeah Alec is silly, he does know that a mission is practically giving talks over and over again right?   I cant believe Ben Featherstone and Jeff Witt are already leaving now!  Can you get their mission addresses for me?  I don't want to send a letter to Provo then have them not be there!  Were all the peeps doing good???  It sounds like it.  Tell them all HI for me!  No, we don't know anything about transfers right now.  I think we´ll know next Monday but I don't know if we´ll know by the time we e mail...so I´ll let you know the next address as soon as possible, that is if  I´m transferred.  In my next package could you send a couple more pairs of thermal garms, large top and 32 bottoms???   Also a laminated picture of the Presidency and of the 12 apostles???  That´d be SWEET!!!  Also could you send our line of authority dad in next weeks e mail, or in the package or something like that, if you have it...Thanks.
Well, this week was good, just tricky because nobody is progressing.  But we will still just go out and work!  Thank you for all that you do!  I love you all tons!  Tell Al, Jack, Pep, and everybody HI for me!   I love you tons, and hope you have a great week!

Love
