Dear Family-

That's cool that you guys have had
such a good time with grandparents and Tyler's family. I am especially
jealous about the whole pool thing haha. It has been over 100 degrees
basically the whole week. That is really unusual for Austria, the
grass is starting to get brown and a member told me yesterday that
this hardly ever happens.

This week we met with a couple of people. We met with this guy named
John. He is from Nigeria and is basically a waste of time. He has been
meeting with missionaries for 7 years and never makes progress. It is
always kind of scary meeting with him too because he may or may not he
drunk when we show up and most of the time you don't know until you
are already in his house and then you gotta bolt. So ya.

We also met with this really cool lady on Thursday named Frau
Schlagin. We talked about the Book of Mormon with her. She is a really
active Catholic and his even a professor for religion in one of the
schools in Wels. I don't think she has very much "real intent" but we
also started talking about the Plan of salvation and found it
interesting so we will see. Stranger things have happened.

Saturday was pretty hard. We had 3 appointments scheduled and 2 fell
through and the other one was John so it was a 20 kind. There was
nobody outside because it was so it hot and people just were angry
when we went dooring because cool air was going out but opposition in
all things right. Just press forward with a steadfastness in Christ
having a perfect brightness of Hope and a love of God and of all men.

That's all I got for today. Love y'all.
