That is kinda a bummer that dad wasn't able to make it out to the 
Priesthood session this year... All of the talks in all of the sessions were 
super good though and I made sure to take some good notes so that I could stay 
awake the whole time! I really liked Elder Holland's story that he told about the 
boys going climbing as well! That was super amazing how he explained that even 
though that brother told the younger brother to go look for a branch, the 
brother really stayed there the whole time. The Lord always knows what we are 
going to do and when we will need Him the most! Then when we do need Him he will 
show us that He is reaching out to us when we are trying to make the big jump. 
It was super cool!!!
We went and did a lot of exchanges all around the mission with a ton of 
different missionaries! It was super cool and it will continue to be super cool 
when we get to go into other areas and learn from the other missionaries! I went 
on exchanges with Elder May and so I got to go back down to Maricopa for a day!! 
In that day one of the kids that we were teaching down there got baptized and 
confirmed! That was so cool to see him get baptized by his grandpa. We got some 
good pictures, but I will have to send them to you next week for sure! It was an 
awesome experience though.
I'm still alive and kickin' out here in the mission and I plan on continuing 
to work hard for the next 3.5 months while I am out here! It is so weird to 
think that I have been out for so long and I just barely turned 20. It is really 
cool though because I feel like I have gotten a little bit of a jump start on 
life! It's going to be awesome! Sorry that this letter is not super long and 
detailed... I just wanted to let you know that I LOVE YOU, and your the best Mom 
I could have asked for! Oh, and I got the whole family some shirts from a service 
project we did!!! :) Love you all tons!!!
Love,
Elder Wallentine
