Hello family!
 
I'm glad to hear the wedding was beautiful and great! I'm glad the weather held up with just enough time. 
 
This week was a crazy one! We picked Sister Knudsen up on Wednesday and on Thursday President came and picked her up and took her back to her old area, where there was a problem. It was a fun day of being in a three-some, but it'll just be the two of us this transfer.
 
We set another baptism date this week with a lady named Sister Walker. She has had a hard life but she's doing well. It's been cool to see her learn about the gospel.
 
We decided to go tracting a little bit before we picked up Sister Knudsen. We drove to this dirt road and then once we'd tracted that we walked across a field to a paved road. We got to this house just as a lady was getting out of her car. She invited us in and we had a lesson with her. She said the closing prayer and prayed that she could learn how to have a closer relationship to God with our help. It was such a blessing.
 
We also started teaching a returning member's son named Anthony this week. After we taught him we asked if he had any questions and he asked, "when can I get baptized?" It's amazing to see how receptive kids are to the Spirit.
 
Sunday Sister Boone and I did splits so we could go to both of our wards. I went up to the University Ward. It was fun, and weird, to see everyone again.  They were surprised to see me.  Bang was at church, so he and Do are back from Vietnam, and another recent convert, Luke, was there and he's doing well. 
 
I love you all! Good luck with everything this week!
 
Love,
Sister Monson
