Ok so this week i don't have much time to write, but i did send pictures!
Things are going pretty good up here in the small town of Albany.
The branch out here is really great. Yesterday we had so many more people to church there was hardly any seats left empty. It's so great to see the work of the lord bringing people to church. We have met probably only about 30% of the branch by now but i already feel so much more comfortable and not so new anymore. Things with "*" one of the investigators took a rough turn and she is no longer on date for baptism but we are still working really hard with her to prepare her. She is so eager to be baptized but she has a lot of things she needs to do, and wants to do before she is baptized. She really is a great girl though and it is so nice to work with her and see her progress. We got another investigator Monday night. We went over to the "*" family's for dinner and they had a nonmember friend there. We taught him the first lesson but things were a little crazy with so many people there that night. We met with him again on Friday and taught the first lesson again this time with a little more clarity. We have an appointment with him again tonight to teach him the importance of the Book of Mormon and how he can feel the spirit and learn to recognize it more in his life. He is going to be a tough one to crack but i can't wait for when we finally do.
Sister "*" and I are starting to get along better. As i warm up to her I'm able to ask her more questions and express my feelings better. I still wouldn't call us friends like sister "*" and i were but our relationship is starting to turn good. :)
Albany is wonderful the people here are great. I'm finally starting to warm up to what missionary work really is like. (because it is hard!) I love you guys so much and love hearing from you!
With lots of love,
