Hey everyone,

There are four elders living in our apartment, and one of them spent his childhood in Nurembourg, Germany. He lived there while his dad taught English and German at a school. It's pretty fun to talk to him about it, sounds like there are some pretty cool sights over there. It will be so cool to see those things, esp. the WWII stuff. I hear there's a lot of it.

We had a guy follow us tracting for a block, acting like he was taking pictures with a camera phone, just to make sure we weren't the Feds. It was pretty funny. We invited him to come teaching with us, but told him he might be bored if he did. He lightened up, but he sure doesn't like us very much. People like that are funny.

We had an interesting week, we are trying a new area to tract in, and it didn't work out too well. We had Stake Conference on Sunday, and it was pretty hard to help people get there, but a couple we are working with right now are doing really great. Just keep praying for them, (Sam and Anna) that they will recognize the answers to their prayers. We are teaching some other people too, but they aren't moving very swiftly. It really takes time for some people to grow and progress. They are really sweet, and they are always moving forward and improving their lives.

Philadelphia is just starting to warm up here, and things are going great. I can't wait! It's been too cold lately for people to even open their doors! Thank you so much for all your help, and I am so grateful for all you guys do!

Love you,
Elder Wallentine
