Hello from Walla Walla!

     Wonder who names the cities in Washington? I know that a lot of them are Native American, but regular Walla apparently wasn't enough. They had to name it twice. I love it here though! Nice little small town. Transfer calls are coming up on the 21st D: I will probably cry when i get transferred. The odds are I'm going to spend a year here, so I'm going to have to leave here eventually :'(. iQue triste!

    I don't really remember anything that happened during the week... as usual. So it must not of been that exciting. Whitney dropped off the face of the planet... as usual. I'm really good at finding super solid people, then have them fall off the face of the planet. So now we have 1 investigator... whoo... She's been an eterna-gator for over 2 years. Her name is Sherry. We go over every Saturday since that's the only day that she can because of her work (she's a baker). She has a lot of worries and concerns for her family. She usually just vents to us every week and we find a way to tie it into the gospel. This week we showed her the "The Hope of God's Light" Mormon Message video. I love this video so much! It shows a man's journey on how he found God in his life. It wasn't a big, dramatic experience as most people imagine it to be. It's a little lengthy, but it's a really good one!

     After the video, we invited Sherry to come to church! She figured that she has been taught for over 2 years so she should go and see if she likes it or not. She is debating between us and Life Church since they don't have as many "rules". She gets every other Sunday off and she had yesterday off so she actually came! It was Stake Conference too :)! She loved it! Elder Craig Cordon from the 70 came so my mission president came too and introduced himself to Sherry. She said she felt more welcome than she thought she would and that she is definitely coming back in 2 weeks. We gave her a church tour and introduced her to Bishop and such. It was so good!

     Hope you all have a fantabulous week!

Con amor,
