July 6th

Well another week has gone by. We got our new president on Wednesday and had our zone conference on Friday, so it was all still new to him. He is a great guy, he will be a great mission president. As for last week it was kinda slow. Our investigators just aren't progressing and their not keeping their commitments and its really just a bummer. So we have been tracking a lot lately trying to find more people to teach. We had a little luck, we found a new investigator that was a referal from a member in our ward, so we have a lesson with her tonight. We didn't do anything for the fourth. We stayed in and made a cake haha. This week we are back without our car so we are walking everywhere. But all in all I'm trying to keep my spirits up and stay positive. I love you all and hope all is well.

Love, Elder Figgy

Well this week was very, very long. We are back in a share car and we didn't have a car this past week and it was way hot. It was about 95, the humidity was 80 so it was really nasty, but at least I'm working on my tan. This last week was full of tracking, we had our normal lessons with our invrstigators. We finally found out their concern so we are going to work on those with them this week. Since its summer, the ward is leaving on vacation and everything and there is like no one here. I like the Arizona summer way better. The mosquitos here are everywhere, but I do love Iowa. Its way pretty. Other than that, the mission is going good. Our new mission president came on Wednesday. Last Wednesday Pres. Talbot said his good-byes. I'm really going to miss them.

Much love Elder Figgy
