How are things going back
home? Things are going pretty well here. It seems like we may end up
having a rainy week, but hopefully things will calm down a bit so that
we can work without too many difficulties because of the weather.
I've been pretty happy with how
things are going here. We were able to have 35 people in church this
week, a new high for us. It was nice seeing some people there who we
haven't seen before in church. It starts to show that our efforts are
paying off. Hopefully we will be able to help bring some more families
to church, which will really help because there are very few children
and youth. It really lacks a bit of life when there aren't any
youngsters, but hopefully that will start to change. We have a lot of
work to do, but we should be able to do it. I don't know if I told you
already, but I will be staying here for almost the next two months with
my companion. That means I'll be in the same city for almost 8 months
(or a quarter of my mission), and who knows what will happen after that.
I am really happy to be working here with Elder Saucedo. He is really
great, and I think we will be able to do a lot here together. I think he is one of my favorite companions that I've had. Hopefully things will keep going well, and we will be able to make some
lasting changes in this branch. Oh, we are also going to be getting
sister missionaries in a week. It will be interesting to see what we
are able to do with their help here. We should really be able to make
some significant changes especially with their support.
But other than that, things have
been pretty good here. There hasn't been all that much new. It's just
crazy to think about how fast the time flies by. Hopefully I'll be able
to do all that I can to help here before I need to leave.
Take care,
Elder Stollenwerk
