Things are going great! Elder Morris is doing good and learning in a crash course, haha and we're having alot of fun.

We are still working hard with Holly. Focusing on daily contacts. We went over for D.C. last night and talked to her about setting goals and how they can help you progress especially when wanting to overcome things like smoking. She then told us that she wants to reset a baptismal date and pretty much set a date for baptism herself right there. She really has made alot of progress and we feel that for her she first must sacrifice her smoking in order to get the answers that she is looking for.

We have a new referral, Romey. Her husband passed away recently. She has been impressed with how kind the members of the church are to her in this area. She seems very prepared. We have set up an appointment. I will let you know.

We have another contact named Carmane. She was being taught in another area and just moved into ours. She is living with her boyfriend, Billy, who is still married. So we have a few hurdles to jump through. Billy is a member and trying to come back too. She loves the church and wants to be baptized.

That's all for now!

Love, Elder Madsen
