Dear Shanell,

We are still working hard out here and the Lord is teaching us patience! We haven't had a baptism this month. I guess if we continue to work hard and pray hard, we'll succeed, right. One of the sister missionaries here is named Sister Dwyer-Hunt. She used to be in the Sydney Mission, but apparently she got sent over here because she couldn't get along with anyone there. We have her in our district and we are the district leaders here. She never helps us do our shopping on the p-days. They have a car and we're on push-bikes and they wont' take us shopping so we have to carry groceries home on our push-bikes. What a laugh, huh. I just received a letter from our mission president saying that I should treat sister missionaries like queens. I would be glad to and I do. There seems to be a misunderstanding! Even my companion and her companion are having a tough time with her! President Wells kind of blames it on me though. Oh well. I guess its' a burden I must bear. I will be a better man after it's all done.

We have 4 new missionaries coming in next week! One of them is Elder Masle and he will be serving in the same mission as his sister. Weird, huh. His sister is still out here so they will both be in this mission at the same time. I hope I can train one of the new missionaries next week. Transfers are on the 25th so who knows what will happen.

Have a great week!

Elder Wallentine
