July 3rd Email

Hey Britt,
 
Dont worry about not emailing or whatever. Its fine. October is a good month for marriage. Plus, you will be kinda near me in August which will be weird. (Date was changed to November)
 
As far as the area goes. That girl, Cassandra, she had a date for the 22nd, but she has pushed it back indefinitely. It is very frustrating because she knows its true, but she doesnt want to make a committment that she cant make. She has an older sister who got baptized recently who is not doing good things at all and that has discouraged her a bit from getting baptized. She is going to girls camp soon and I am praying that she gets some kind of revelation there that she needs to do it. It is kinda stressful.
 
We have another investigator like that who knows its true, but doesnt want to get baptized because she doesnt think she can physically do it. She can. But it is so frustrating to try to work with her because she is so set that she cannot do it.
 
Missionary work is pretty stressful, but we do have a couple that are getting pretty close. The wife's only issue is smoking and she is getting really close to quiting. The husband wants to know its true, but has a hard time recognizing the spirit. 12 weeks ago they were complaining about the people at church and about family. Now they want to be baptized. Oh the things the Spirit can do when it touches someone's life.
 
Other than that there is pretty much nothing. It is lame. And yes I am struggling with my companions, but I will write about that in a letter sometime.
 
Love ya!
Elder Connell
