Busy, busy week. Our phone seems to be ringing constantly now. We spent a lot of time not working in our area and yet somehow the lord blessed us to be able to talk to more people and teach more lessons then we normally do. I will say missionary work is hard but it is also defiantly worth it. The summer heat seems to be bringing people out of their houses and into the streets where they are more willing to talk to us.

               It has been a very up and down week. We have been teaching a lot of new people but we have also been losing some people. It is always sad when someone decides that they don’t want to listen any more. They reject this message which could bring so much happiness into their life. But that is often how it goes.

               I am enjoying serving with Elder Austin again. He is a good guy and we work well together. I will admit I did not expect to be serving with him again and now he will be my last companion.

               There really are not any crazy stories from this week. The work is pressing forward and we are doing our best to help and talk to as many people as the lord places in our path. I love all of you. Thank you for supporting me and for helping me throughout the years. I hope all of you have a great week
