Dear Shanell,

I've enclosed some photos of the sunsets here and thought you would like to see what sunsets in Australia look like.



I am back in Adelaide. I'm in an area called Christies Beach. Our bedroom window overlooks the ocean and it is so gorgeous! I really liked the thought you sent about prayer being a radio. That is so right! Where are you in the scriptures? I just read where Jesus chased all the money changers and others out of the temple. I also found out something new while reading. In Matthew 17:11 it mentions "Elias" and it was a small letter "a" for a footnote. When I followed it, it said to look in Joseph Smith translation. I found out that Elias and John the Baptist are the same person! I found that very interesting. The scriptures are so fun to read! 

This new area has been interesting. We have one investigator and he's not progressing very fast. It was neat hearing about the temple trip. I miss not going to the temple. I love the great spirit there. I know this is the true church of Jesus Christ and I know it is the only way to the Celestial Kingdom. I am working toward that now.

Thank you for all your encouragement and support!

Love,
Elder Wallentine
