Hey Family, how is everything going?! Well, I finally know where I'm at in Calgary. I got transferred to a place called Magrath. Its a small farm town about 2 hours south from Calgary. I'm serving in the Temple district, but right when I got there the mission president changed the p-day from Wednesday to Monday so now none of us can go to the temple on p-days. I got a really cool companion. His name is Elder Flygar. He's from Bountiful, Utah. He's a sweet trainer. I live with him in a member's home down in the basement. She's a sweet old lady and its like having a grandma in Canada.

Everyone here in Magrath is LDS so its hard to find investigators to teach. It kinda bumms me out because now I feel like a home teacher rather than a missionary, but we do have some people we are teachin. There's this one family that we committed to being married so that they can all be baptized. This family is progressing and that's what counts. So hopefully they'll be baptized by the middle of July. So that's what's going on for missionary work.

The people here in Magrath feed us soooo much! Its crazy! I'm lookinig forward to gaining some weight! I've never eaten so much in my life, I love it! Farmers really sure know how to feed us missionaries.

I'm learning so much here. The scriptures have really enlarged my memory in keeping the commandments. My prayers have been more meaningful than they've ever been. I know that Heavenly Father is watching over us.
