Hey everyone this week was awesome! We hit he streets to contact a bunch of old contacts! One day we walked for over seven hours and no one was interested! BUT it was by far my favorite day! I love being able to walk around Pittsburgh and be working. Even if I don't see the results. By the end of this week we got five more investigators! And three unofficial ones as well. I'm super excited to be able to teach these people!

Waiting in the rain at the bus stop.

Walking home from conference last night we were determined to get another investigator. So we started walking and immediately missed a bus. Perfect! Now we can walk and talk. We met a woman and her daughter. The little girl was watching Veggie tales! The woman is very interested and willing to learn from us, it was a great end to an awesome weekend.

Sweater day!.

Watching General Conference at a members home.

Speaking of a good weekend conference was too awesome! I took conference for granted so badly before I left. It was really powerful. One session a investigator came to the church to watch! I was so pumped when she came. At the end of the session she seemed nonchalant about it all. That kinda bugged me because we're obviously teaching her wrong if she doesn't care about what the prophets are telling us. So we need to work on that one.

The Districts of Pittsburgh.

But all and all we had a super sweet week! I'm pumped for this week to get to be able to teach these new people!

God bless,

Letter of the week goes to Darcey who drew a dreary scene in which I hate birds.(I actually enjoy birds immensely.)

Dinner at the Butler's with the gang.

Cooked green beans. Surprisingly good.
