Hey ya'll,
This has been a great week! We went on exchanges with the sister training leaders in Douglas Sister Walker and Sister Zenovieff. Sister Zenovieff came to Albany. It went really well, I learned so much from her. She is such a great missionary!
        Last Saturday we went to a baptism for a little boy the elders were teaching, he's 9 and his cousin who's 8. So many people came to the baptism. To have all the love and support of the members of the ward. It was fantastic. I think that would be great to have at every baptism. It made such a difference in how they felt. They played a video about missionaries and it just made so happy to be serving. Also To be serving around such wonderful people, missionaries and members.

   After the baptism had pioneer day. It was a lot of fun, we were able to help serve the food. Plus they did a few different pioneer activities. We delivered some bibles to referrals that live in smaller cities around Albany. That was an adventure! We also did some service for one of our investigators. We cleaned a stove and had a lot of fun doing it. Overall it was a great day!

  Sunday we sang in church again. We sang "They the builders of the nation" for pioneer day. It went really well. Later I played the piano for Relief Society and that went really well. I love hymns, they can make such a difference. I just love being a missionary! It's such a blessing to be able to be here serving in such a great mission! Make it a great week!
