Hey Family and friends!
This was a pretty amazing week, but nothing too special happened, it was just a great time to be a missionary.
We weren't able to meet with too many of our investigators, and a ton of people went out of town, so it would seem like a pretty bad week, but it’s never a bad week when you’re a missionary!
Life here continues to move way too quickly. I can’t believe May is knocking on the door now. WOW! I do have a quick miracle story to share with you.
The 4 elders that live in our pad went knocking together Saturday night, and when we got through the door this lady started yelling at us. I think she was in a bad mood or something, I didn’t really bother me to much, but she was Russian, and was like, we don’t want people knocking on our doors who don’t speak any of our language. Then I just started talking to her in Russian. She was pretty shocked, and her whole demeanor (I have nooo idea how to spell that) changed. It awesome, we went and knocked the building, and had a lot of success.
So living in an apartment with an elder who speaks Chinese, and one who speaks American Sign Language is pretty cool. I know a ton of phrases in Cantonese, and mandarin, and can finger spell and know some cool words in ASL. It’s pretty much amazing!

Now for the weekly Q's
How are you? How was your week? PRETTY much AMAZING
How is your weather? going to rain, but in the 40's
How is your companion doing and the other companionship of Elders in your apartment? amazing, and awesome
Did you find the Wells family at church? Asked around and no one seems to know them...
When is your next Zone Conference? Do you travel a ways to go? Just had one this week, just hoped on the subway for 15 minutes, not to far.
Bonus, your choice... Did you find a type writer on the street this week? YES!!!! How did you know, it’s pretty amazing, my future hand written letters will now be typed, so nice!
I hope all is well where ever you are, and remember that through the Lord, all things are possible.

Sly,
Elder t
