Family,

Wow I got so many emails today from you and from my mission President that I won't be able to write you back that much. I'll just get to telling you how my week was and then just add a few comments at the end :).

This week was way awesome. We had 4 investigators at church!!! It was way awesome. 3 of them were in one family, Elder Thomas and I found on Saturday night, they're so cool! It's a mom, dad, and a little 10 year old girl. It seemed like they really enjoyed church, we're going to meet with them this week and we're really excited. We also had another really cool miracle this last Saturday. Elder Thomas and I decided to knock this giant apartment building (there are like a few hundred apartments in it), and while we were knocking we just found a ton of people (we found that family) and we also found another lady who was a huge miracle, here let me tell you about it. So we knock on this door and this lady just starts yelling at us from the inside, so we start walk away cause we thought she was just way mad at us, but then she opens the door and is like "oh... I want to talk to you guys". So we started talking to her of course. After a little bit she noticed that we had Books of Mormon and she was like "Wow no way I found one of those books on the street today, and I brought it home to look at it" She had found a book of Mormon on the ground next to a garbage can and it caught her attention and she took it home, that very same day. She went inside and brought out the weather worn and wet copy of the Book of Mormon that she'd found just to prove to us that it was true. It was just a giant miracle, we met with her yesterday and we have another meeting set up this Friday, we're way excited.

So that's just a few things that went down that were very cool, there was even more stuff but I don't have time to tell you sadly. I'm keeping a good journal so I can tell you all these things in the future :). As far as money goes, if I had about 100 dollars, I could get some cool stuff and send it to you. Just let me know when you put that money on and I'll get you some awesome baltic stuff, I'm the most excited to send you some Baltic candy :). Have a great week. I love all of you. Oh yeah and before I forget, Happy one day late birthday Frank! Congratulations! I'm glad you had a great birthday, you’ll have to tell me about the cool stuff you did and the cool stuff you got ;).
