Dear Shanell,

Everything is almost great here except for the fact that we aren't teaching anyone in this new area. Kind of depressing. Being a Zone Leader is tough! We have to sacrifice our own tracting time to help the other missionaries succeed. I would rather be a normal missionary, but if this is what my Father in Heaven wants, I won't fight His will. I feel like He is watching over me. I was reading my patriarchal blessing the other day and it really helped me keep things in perspective. It was helpful to read about the part on missionary work. I'm grateful for all I am learning out here.

Today Sisters Wahlquist and Allen stopped in and asked if we wanted to go to Cleland with them and Elders Jackson, Parker, Andersen, and Lonnie Green. We hurried and got ready. We had a picnic by the wildlife preserve and then went in and fed the "roos" and it was fun! We put my sunglasses on one kangaroo and took some photos of it! It was hilarious!

Thank you for all you do!
Elder Wallentine
