Another great week flew by! 

We had 2 exchanges this week which always makes the week go by a lot faster. And we had our stake meeting with the stake presidency, mission president and high councilmen over missionary work there. It was a great meeting, but very very stressful because we know the missionary work is not were it could be or should be so we were talking a lot about that. Other then that it wasn't a really exciting week. None of our investigators came to church which was sad. We went to the VIsitor Center with an investigator. He is going to get baptized he just need to come to church 3 times. Lately he has been called to work and this week he was out of town. We have faith in him though.  Also one of our new investigators, James is doing well. He is very interesting. He is an intern for a pharmacy company. Hes going to get he PHD in bio engineering. Very smart. He is literately investigating the church. He comes to church and writes notes down of what people say. Thankfully hes grown up somewhat religious so he still has that side of him but i still think he might want to think of it more logically.

We have been biking a lot lately. It helps a lot to talk to people. But, when we bike my tire seems to be attracted to thorns on the path. Both of my tires has about 5 or 6 patches on them. My back tire is still leaking slowly. 

Every wednesday we have a book of Mormon class. We just read the book of mormon and talk about what went on. Not a lot of people attend so we are think about shutting it down but i like it a lot. 

Elder Craft is from Portland Oregon (actually Damascus) his dad is actually the stake president there. He just had his hump day (What missionaries call their year mark) Thursday. Our stake held a pioneer day party Saturday which was fun. Lots of good food :D

Sincerely,

Elder Ranquist
