Dear Shanell,

We are very excited about our baptism this Saturday! She says she is counting down the days, too. Her name is Barbara Davies and she is 15 years old. She is already in seminary and going to mutual. She loves it!

That is cool that you spoke with Kathy Cottrell at the seminary graduation. I knew her, but not very well out here. She is nice.

Today we placed 2 Books of Mormon and taught 3 discussions! We also set up a family home evening with a part-member family, visited 2 members and tracted for 4 hours. We usually teach 3 discussions in a weeks time, so that was a pretty good day! I'm excited!

I'm so thankful for the opportunity I've had to serve a mission. I've grown so much! My companion, Elder Zurzolo, said that I know heaps about the church that he's never heard of and I realized today how much I've learned ! I love God and I love Jesus Christ and all they have done for me!

Keep smiling!
Elder Wallentine
