This past week was transfers and transfer week always seems to be long for some reason.

It has been hot here.  Yesterday we saw on a bank that it was 110.  There is no one outside to talk to when it's this hot.  They think we are crazy for being outside, but a few random people have given us popsicles.  We do go to the church to cool off when we can.

The temple envelope that I sent home was made by Mama, the lady we live with.  We couldn't find the OKC Temple so she put the Dallas Temple on it.

One of the less actives we have been working with now has his temple recommend and wants to do baptisms.  He will be moving at the end of the month so hopefully we can get him to the temple before he moves.

I feel that working with less active members is frowned on as missionaries because you are not baptizing, but it is part of our calling.  We have several less active members that we are working with.  We did have a few less active members at church.  I guess they are not really less active anymore since they are now attending church each Sunday.

My shoes are a little worn as you can tell from the picture I sent you a couple of weeks ago.  One pair is shot and will probably throw them away because they are just too hard to wear.  I will may need to get some new jeans.  My Levis have at least 4 patches on them.  Doing service work can get a little dirty.  I also had to get me another pair of slacks.  We retired a pair at the Stake Presidents house.

Well, that all I can think of.

I love you.

Love,
Scott
