Hey there!

Sorry that my letter didn't send yesterday. I'll try to remember what I put the first time :P Ummm let's see, this week was fanfreakintastic! this was probably one of the best weeks that I have had on my mission so far, we have been praying and fasting for new investigators to come into our path and this week we found 4 new investigators, 2 member referrals, 1 with a baptism date, and 1 potential! this is VERY good. The past few weeks have been a real drag and I'm glad that things are finally picking up now. The Lord really has been preparing us this past week for these wonderful people and i am so thankful for this. Elder Zander and I fasted and prayed for a goal for us to set on how many baptisms we will get in March and it turned out to be 5. So we are going to be busy for quite a while! Which is very good. I want to stay as busy as possible.

Oh, by the way, thanks for the money for the GPS! Thank you so much for your help! I know money is tight and I really do appreciate it! I've been using it and it really has been helping us out getting around the back roads and what not. That is so crazy that Dillon leaves for the MTC on Wednesday!! I E-mailed him and I hope that he does great! That is also awesome that he talked about me in his farewell, I wish I was there to hear it but I'm needed here of course ;) Man, I cannot believe that I have been out for almost 6 months! This is nuts! I'm a quarter of the way done! and it does NOT feel like it. It feels like I just started. Insane huh?

Yes I'll be expecting those pictures soon! I need to start taking more pictures soon as well, but there is only so much that I can take of in the small town of Alma. That is great that you are still working! my prayers are still being answered at home!! I'm happy to hear that Dwight got my package I sent him, I really do hope that he likes it and will read it soon....

The weather here is always weird. Right now, there is a breeze and it puts a little chill in you but the other day it was like 70 degrees and the humidity was getting up there! I'm really not looking forward to this coming summer... How is the weather back at home? is there still snow or slush? so you need to do me a huge favor and tell my friends to write me. I am rarely getting letters from my friends and its really sad. I always get excited when the mail comes and nothing comes in for me. I could really use some support from my friends back at home.

That is awesome that you are feeding the missionaries some ribs! We get fed very well here. Don't worry, I'm not letting the food get to me. The other night we were fed Steaks and the other night the same people fed us ribs!!! We are treated like kings here ha ha ha!! Well I better get going, I hope all is well for you all. I love you all!!!!

Love, Elder Daniel Stuart
